Whether for an advanced degree, motivation to finish a project, or a chance for random people to destroy our will to create, we contemplate returning to school. Or, you know, not.

Round 2: The Good Place and Suits

1/16/2018

0 Comments

 

Your road map to this week's entertainment-themed episode:

00:33 The Good Place: Terri has a theory about the connection between this show and a classic movie... and she's not alone!

09:56 Challenge Round: Suits: Terri challenged Catherine to watch an episode of USA Network's Suits, starring Prince Harry's fiancée, Meghan Markle. Catherine enjoyed the legal drama and the peek at the princess-to-be.

For next time, Catherine challenged Terri to listen to a few episodes of Little House on the Podcast: The recap of season 1, episode 10 from May 30, 2017, and from last month, the recap of season 2, episode 15.

We'll also watch the next episode of The Good Place ("Rhonda, Diana, Jake, and Trent") and get back to the West Wing with "Holy Night" from season 4.

Speed Round: Smoothies vs. Shakes

Here's a this or that for you: delicious ice-cream-rich beverage or something people use to hide spinach and worse? Yeah, Nicole and Terri are all-in for milkshakes. Catherine ... well, we'll stay her friend, we guess, but we're not going to drink anything she gives us.

Round 2: Golden Globes, The Good Place, and Bridesmaids

1/9/2018

0 Comments

 

Your road map to this week's entertainment-themed episode:

00:30 The Golden Globes: Awards season is here. We start with a show that's mercifully filler-free, but so chockablock with awards that it's hard to keep up. Also, #Oprahsglasses4Prez.

15:06 The Good Place: Watching one episode of a show at a time, when it comes out? How unusual! But we're here for it. Mentioned: The Good Place and No Context The Good Place on Twitter (only follow/read if you're okay with spoilers!).

22:50 Challenge Round: Bridesmaids: Catherine challenged Terri to watch the 2011 movie, mostly to make sure she checked it off her entertainment bucket list. While we could do without the cringe-com, we are all about the rom-com.

For next week, Terri challenged Catherine to watch an episode of Suits, starring future royal bride Meghan Markle (season 2, episode 13, "Zane vs. Zane.") We'll watch that and the next Good Place, but no West Wing yet. That should return for our January 23 episode.
