Secret Diary of a Call Girl 1x03

I’m on a roll tonight! Third episode back to back, let’s get started!

Thoughts While Watching

  • She definitely fell for Ashok. First client, in another episode she says she sees him every other week, sharing books, she actually bothers to try to justify the wife thing here, it’s all definitely crossing the line. I know she gets her heart broken in the episode with Naomi.
  • I wish I had her lingerie. More importantly, I wish I looked good enough to pull it off. I’d look terrible in it!
  • That little shoulder kiss while he’s asleep…she definitely fell for Ashok so hard.
  • I love her friendship with Ben. They’re so cute! Is this the only scene where we actually see Vanessa? I’m surprised they never really let us see her. But oh my God, Ben is so funny when he knows he’s about to get sex.
  • This show isn’t that old, but I doubt that trans joke would fly today. I love her friendship with this hotel employee too. It’s cute.
  • This guy from the hotel bar seems familiar. I’m kinda wondering if I’ve seen the actor in something else but I’m too lazy to imdb him right now.
  • I love when she looks at the camera like she’s on The Office.
  • 3 hours 41 minutes? Damn… Of just this the whole time? I can’t imagine anything more boring.
  • Whoa…that wouldn’t fly today either. She sticks her finger up his ass without warning or consent and then says, “If you ask them first, 90% will say no. But hey, once it’s up there…” Yikes. She just sexually assaulted this guy and it’s played off as a joke. I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable right now.
  • Her description of herself as a real girlfriend sounds like me if I’m being honest.
  • I love her and Ben so much. I love that she calls him first thing when she gets off work.

Final Thoughts

That was a fun episode but I’m a little shocked at what she did to that guy from the bar. I don’t think I ever viewed it that way before but it’s definitely not a good thing. Alright, on to the next one!

Robin Hood 3x09 "A Dangerous Deal"

I think this episode is the Meg episode and if so I remember liking it so I'm excited to get started on this one! Let's begin! Thoughts While Watching So Robin’s sneaking in on Isabella in her bedroom and confronts her about becoming the new sheriff and Isabella immediately points out how rare it is for a woman to have a chance to get power like that. I know she’s crazy and going on a downward spiral to the dark side and will ultimately extremely screw over one of my favorite characters (Allan), but you know what, good for her. She’s right.  Wait, why would she fall when the prince does when the king returns? Just because Prince John appointed her that means she’s “working with a traitor” and against King Richard? I don’t think so. The previous sheriff is dead (or so they think). A new sheriff needs to be appointed. King Richard gave Prince John the authority to do that. She was legally appointed by the man that King Richard left in charge. Unless she directly helps P...

Robin Hood 1x12 "The Return of the King"

Woo! We made it to the first half of the two part season one finale! These next two episodes are going to be an emotional rollercoaster, but a fun one! Djaq and Marian both get to absolutely shine in this episode too, which is fantastic (I think this episode is only the second or third instance in the entire show so far that passes the Bechdel Test, which isn't great...), and everyone involved in the cave scenes gets to really show off their acting abilities here in a big way. I'm excited for this one, so let's begin! Thoughts While Watching: Guy looks so awkward holding that bird. You don't feed your birds?! I'm calling PETA! The cave doesn't seem that bad. I'd rather be in there than out in the rain. "Bats are rats, rats with wings." This whole scene is great. I love Much. I didn't know that fact about bats was something they would've known back then. Makes sense that Djaq would be the one to know it. Djaq knows everything. ...

Robin Hood 1x11 "Dead Man Walking"

It's the Little John episode! I'll be honest, this isn't one I tend to rewatch all that often and it's not one of my favorites. There's nothing about it that I dislike or anything and I love that it goes into Little John's story more deeply, but it's not one of the fun episodes, you know? It's depressing. The sheriff literally throws a festival to torture peasants for entertainment, including children, John has to face the horrible consequences of all the poor decisions he's made, he has to say goodbye to the son he's barely known and will probably never get the chance to know, and he has to watch the wife he's still in love with leave with another man, all of which leave him with suicidal tendencies that don't get addressed until next season. It even has a call-back to another depressing episode with Roy's tag being brought up again, who was also like a son to John and whom he also lost. This is just a dark and depressing episode all...
