B: I was actually at dinner with some people who said the only rape on the show was Jane’s.
She told either Madeline or Celeste in a previous episode that she would definitely recognize his voice. When he came down and started talking to Celeste, that’s what got Jane’s attention.
With Bonnie, her actions reminded me of someone who has worked through a lot of issues, is triggered in that moment, and acts out what they’ve always wanted to do in their past but couldn’t. I thought it was an unexpected and long buried rage that bubbled up in Bonnie. I don’t think she meant to kill him. I think she…
The way you guys talk about the NY Times reviews and how people perceived this show at the beginning makes me think about Jennifer Weiner and how she (rightly, IMO) argues women’s fiction is automatically slapped with a “Chick Lit” label if it involves any kind of issues considered “domestic.”
Note to the NYT writer: Just because something involves attractive doesn’t mean it’s “sexy.” No one cares about your boner.
Yeah, it seemed like a pretty bad run. As someone who once had to fire a nanny with a heroin problem, I empathize.
One of her nannies tried to fuck her husband. The other one maybe dropped her kid on his head? I think that’s right. She seems okay to me.
Stepmom includes one of THE MOST ANNOYING film tropes: The flurry of activity on the set of the fashion shoot — the panic, the chaos, people running around, everything is going wrong, fabric is literally flying — only to have the hero photog (in this case, Julia Roberts), walk onto the set, look into the camera, NOT…
This is the correct take.
Way to overplay your hand, Susan. Nobody has ever liked Julia Roberts “very much.”
Boy, Poor Mischa has not had the life/career arc any of us (her included) would have imagined in 2003
We moved from the city to the burbs, and all my city friends are like single and not wanting to come out by us EVER.
My suburbs friends suck and I have finally taken the advice from the lovely people of Jezebel and left their biased, racist, pearl covered clutches.
So my husband and I are at square one and I feel bad…
I am 31 and its so damn hard to make fucking friends as an adult!!!!
Ugh - I can relate to this so much. As someone who doesn’t have a lot of friends, I was really looking forward to having a kid and making parent friends.
But daycare parents are rude as hell and NOT friendly.
I have made one friend, and we also take the train to work together. My husband always tries to initiate plans…
My daughter and I have tagged that “the Prince George toss.”
My son is almost three, we were so immersed in the election, and naively thought HRC would win. Just from exposure to the media, 45's name was one of the first full names he said and recognized. We called him “the bad man.” In the last few days leading up to the election, I bought a Little President’s book (which was…
