  • Episode 6: Love Triangle Overboard, Gen Z meets Rocky Horror, Friendsgiving Rave, and Oh, Luke

    Episode 6: Love Triangle Overboard, Gen Z meets Rocky Horror, Friendsgiving Rave, and Oh, Luke
    2026/07/20
    Joy from Below Deck did what most people only manage in their heads: she heard Luke's pitch, gave him the most expressive look of disgust imaginable, and walked. No extended conversation, no drama. Luke, having already slept with Jen and tried to pivot toward Joy, managed to turn both women against him, get the whole boat talking, and create friction between the chef and both the interior and exterior departments simultaneously. Joe's line of the week sums it up: "There's another man's deposit on your bed." Sheetgate may yet become a fireable offense. Meanwhile, on Next Gen NYC, Riley arrived drunk, went after Georgia unprovoked, woke up with a hangover of regret, and then used her last remaining goodwill to come at Ariana, who had been quietly managing the situation with patience most people in their late twenties don't have. Gia Giudice, against all prior expectations, was the steadying force in the room. On Summer House, Amanda did not take Kyle's hand at the end of the group love fest. She had her hand on the Lindsay side and not on the Kyle side, and one of us rewound it twice. She slipped out while everyone else was having fun, and her face was not tired. It was alert and happy in a way that tells its own story. The year-long lease also hasn't been properly interrogated by her friends. Month-to-month is a reset. A year lease is a decision. Over on The Valley, Luke is treating the first year of having a new baby as evidence that something is wrong with the relationship, when what he's describing is something every couple with a newborn goes through. Kristen's question, "Why did you propose to me then?", was exactly the right one to ask. The book segment covers Virginia Roberts Giuffre's memoir "Nobody's Girl," written entirely in her voice, structured around the hope that she made it out. She did escape Epstein at 19, built a life in Australia, and wrote the book to show people there's a path through. What came out after her death is that her home life was not what the book suggested. She left that out deliberately, because she wanted the book to be useful rather than depressing. It is both. Also worth noting: "Five Star Weekend" by Elin Hildebrand has a Peacock adaptation with Jennifer Garner that's genuinely worth watching, Timothy Oliphant is aging extraordinarily well, and Per Petterson's "Out Stealing Horses" is quietly excellent travel prep for anyone heading to Norway.

    Episode 5 - The OG of the OC is Back, Hannah Montana’s Mom is in NYC, and Friendsgiving Is Giving Frenemies, Not Friends
    2026/07/13
    Vicki Gunvalson's return to RHOC felt like comfort food for exactly one episode before she told a new castmate, "This is my show, I started the show." Amy and Jessica unpack whether the comeback can hold, why the tres amigas triangle is already loaded with landmines before anyone gets in a room together, and what Heather Dubrow's pot-and-kettle storyline with her mother is actually doing beneath the surface. Carmela lands as the rare debut that earns its place without a pre-packaged angle, and the conversation turns to whether nine seasons is simply enough for Emily. Next Gen NYC outperformed every low expectation. The show works because it stopped leaning on the parent crutch from season one and let a cast of genuinely complicated young people carry the weight. Charlie earns the Ryan Phillippe in Cruel Intentions comparison, Gia's maturity surprised everyone who assumed otherwise, and Amira's self-made anchor keeps the whole thing from floating off into pure nepotism television. Brooke Shields appearing as a new castmate's mother was a gift, even if someone tried to explain who she was by referencing Hannah Montana's mom. On Summer House and In the City, Amanda's season-long arc reads completely differently once you know what happened off camera. Her self-producing is visible and it's failing, and Lindsey dropping the detail about Kyle's multiple affairs at the exact moment the franchise needed momentum reads as a calculated move, whether it's genuine solidarity or savvy franchise economics. Four books round out the week: Jason Reynolds' Long Way Down in verse, Tiffany Crumb's thriller This Story Might Save Your Life, Fredrik Backman's Brit-Marie Was Here, and Marie NDiaye's The Witch, a 1996 French novel that is beautifully written and recommended with ambivalence, best revisited in October when the mood aligns.

    Episode 4: Nathan Makes Peace, Jo Ellen Digs Deep, Dinner Party Drama, and Zack’s Party Slaps (Literally!)

    Joseph from Below Deck Med managed to be simultaneously obnoxious and lonely, and Captain Sandy's advice to Nathan — stay professional, don't give the guy a reason — was probably good ethics and terrible television. We wanted the arm wrestling match. The escape room charter, though, was genuinely remarkable: night vision goggles, a blackout dinner, riddles hidden around the boat, and a full escape room built on essentially no budget. The tip worked out to roughly two months of a teacher's salary from a single charter. Wrong career. The Real Housewives of Rhode Island reunion delivered on almost every front except Rula, who kept getting blindsided on live television by facts she apparently hadn't fully reckoned with yet. Joellen showed up with receipts, timestamps, and documented evidence of a 2.5-year affair while Rula seemed to believe it was a one-time mistake. Alicia's financial situation is the reunion moment that landed hardest: her name isn't on the house, they aren't married, and the person assuring her she'll always be taken care of is the same person whose fidelity and financial transparency are both open questions. On In the City, Danielle walking into Yvonne's wedding dinner in what reads as white on camera was the kind of chaos that splits the room cleanly. She had the text receipt. She wore it anyway. And then she was completely insufferable when the bride reacted badly, which is consistent with her entire trajectory. On The Valley, Danny drunk on the party bus, snapping at Nia with a nasty edge in his voice while she calmly tried to help him, made it very hard to stay in his corner. Janet had real momentum going and then introduced a victim backstory as a storyline device at exactly the wrong moment, burning the goodwill she had built. Michelle, meanwhile, is quietly becoming the most valuable person on the show: her moment telling Nia directly and without drama that a lot of people are uncomfortable around Danny was what an actual friend does. On the books side, Virginia Giuffre's memoir "Nobody's Girl" and Carole Clare Burke's "Yesteryear" are both still living rent-free weeks after finishing them, which is the only metric that matters.
