Secret Diary of a Call Girl 1x05

Halfway through season one and things are picking up. Ben knows the truth now which is definitely a turning point in the show. Let’s get started!

Thoughts While Watching

  • The bridal shop lady is right. Shopping for my wedding dress was a nightmare because I’m fat.
  • Stephanie says here that Belle put down no to watersports but it shows her doing it in the first episode of season two. So gross. Yeah, I know, I’m so judgmental. Oh well. Gross is gross. The toilet thing last episode was gross and watersports is gross too.
  • Aw, poor Hannah. She definitely seemed sad when Ben said that about her not being the bride in that tone of voice. And she’s trying to hide it.
  • Oh, it’s legal in the UK? Interesting. It’s not legal here in most parts of the U.S.
  • Aw, Belle seems so possessive and almost in love with Ashok. It’s kind of sad.
  • So…does this mean that Naomi goes by her real name when she’s working? Or did she want Hannah to trust her enough to tell her her real name but doesn’t want to reveal her own yet?
  • I feel genuinely bad for her. She’s definitely taking this as a breakup. I don’t know how I feel about the fact that she stopped being friends with Naomi over it though.
  • Aw, I love that Ben’s the one she turns to every time things don’t go well for her. And I love that Ben tells her she looked good in the wedding dress. So cute.
  • I mentioned in a previous post, but I have a friend that I have a very Hannah/Ben type relationship with and he was my best man too. It’s always awkward when you do that though, I know from experience. It’s cute though that Ben asked her to be his best man. Poor Vanessa though.

Final Thoughts

I like this episode! Naomi was okay for one episode, but I’m glad she didn’t stick around. I love seeing Hannah/Belle have a female friend she can bond with but Bambi fits that role soooo much better when she comes on the show later on. Naomi’s personality kind of grated on me. She’s too rough around the edges.

Robin Hood 3x04 "Sins of the Father"

I took about a two month break from my rewatch. Since I last reviewed an episode I've been working on a Robin Hood fanfic (the rough draft is finished and I'm editing now and trying to work up the courage to post it), rewatching random episodes of other shows (kinda on a Charmed kick lately), and started a new rewatch of Robin Hood with a fan group I'm in. I've also, of course, been dealing with real life. I know quarantine is over for most people, but not my family! I'll still be out of work until at least the end of August (I work in a school and while I absolutely love my job, I'm honestly considering looking for a new one because I'm really concerned about the uncertainty of the upcoming school year) and my husband is still mostly working from home. At least that means I still have time to watch my shows! I think another reason the rewatch has been going so much slower for season three is that my heart is really just not in it. I love seasons one and two...

Robin Hood 2x03 "Childhood"

This is a really cute episode! I loved seeing how the gang has already become legendary enough that they've reached a kind of superhero status for the local children who play as their favorite outlaw. The kids were adorable and the whole episode was sweet and fun. I definitely rewatch this one a lot and I'm excited to see it again, so let's begin! Alright, Guy fans...this pic is for you! Thoughts While Watching: The episode starts out with four little boys playing Robin Hood. We know which one is supposed to be Robin himself (Daniel), but I'm wondering who each of the rest of them are supposed to be. There's six outlaws total at this point so not all of them are going to be represented. I'm not sure if their outfits are just what they normally wear or if they're supposed to be dressed up as their chosen outlaw, because one of them seems to be wearing an outfit similar to Will's and another looks like he's wearing a vest that sort of remind...

Robin Hood 2x08 "Get Carter!"

This episode is super fun and introduces everyone's favorite minor character! There are so many fans that just ignore the fact that Carter is only a two episode guest character and include him in their lists of main characters and he's even in the list of filter options for most fanfic sites. He's an instant fan favorite, an extremely popular character, and I personally think he would've made an excellent gang member. Think of how much better season three could've been if Carter had survived the sheriff's attack and the king would have sent him back to England to recover from his wound! This show continuously comes very close to greatness and then drops the ball and this is just one more example of that. Anyway, let's get started! Thoughts While Watching: Poor Clun...they always get the short end of the stick. Why does the sheriff hate them so much? Marian: LEEEEROOOOY JEEENKIIIIINS!!! I love how Djaq throws her arms up like, "God damn it, Le...
