Sorry not sorry for making you hungry this week, but blame the Pritchett Sisters for their Bar-B-Que burritos. Wade and Zoe are making plans for the future, much to Lavon's dismay, while Lemon is making matches and finding finds and catching catches. Plus, there are fart jokes, were-raccoons, and more South Hollow talk. It's what you've come to expect, dear hearts, and we're happy to deliver.

Allo, guvnahs! We’re across the pond to drive our Minis through the British cult classic, 1969’s The Italian Job (not to be confused with The Italian Jobby).

The Parent Trap (1961)
As if this remake season would start with any other film but the classic The Parent Trap from 1961. We finally pay attention to the plot from a critical lens, and boy, does EVERYone here need therapy!

Sense and Sensibility
Hold onto your butts, because we’re on a carriage ride with the Dashwoods.
