Secret Diary of a Call Girl 1x08

Here we are, last episode of the first season. I’ve watched the whole season in one sitting so far. Easiest show to binge ever. Season finale, here I come!

Thoughts While Watching

  • How legit is this courtesan thing? Sounds very straight out of the Renaissance era. Are they just really high-end sugar babies with a pretentious label?
  • That one courtesan played the sheriff’s sister on Robin Hood.
  • So rude. I think the blue looks nice on her.
  • Yeah, Hannah. It’s weird to ask your ex to take seductive pictures of you for your courtesan website.
  • I love the part where she tells Stephanie off! I’d love to quit a job like that someday. I’ve fantasized about it.
  • I love this photoshoot montage. I’d love to do a boudoir photoshoot someday but I’m too fat and covered in pregnancy stretch marks.
  • It’s cute how excited she gets about the apartment. Too bad the guy ends up being a jerk.
  • I think her mom is suspicious. Maybe not of her being an escort, but I bet that she at least thinks that Hannah is sleeping with her boss or something. Actually, when Jackie goes to live with her later on she says something about how Hannah works a dead end job where the only chance of moving up the ladder is to sleep with someone, which makes me think that maybe her and their mom talked about their theory behind her back and that’s what they decided was happening.
  • Aw, the cactus housewarming gift is cute.
  • I wonder how the pay works at this level. If she can only have around 4ish clients and they might not live in London to see her that often, does she get an allowance from them? That fits my sugar baby theory.
  • So why doesn’t she go out sightseeing or something? Or bring a book? Watch tv? There’s gotta be more to do than sit in that room all day.
  • This guy is SUCH a prick. I hate him. There’s no reason to be such a douche about it. He could just say that he has a problem with her doing stuff like that because his job is so important to him. If he made it clear in a nice way, I’m sure she would have gotten the picture. He didn’t have to snap like that.
  • Ben’s right, she definitely knew exactly what she was doing. I’ve done something similar before.
  • AWWW! “Yeah, Vanessa wonders what I’m doing here at midnight. Of course, because she knows, Hannah! Shit, at our wedding she’s gonna be sat there next to me in her dress and you’re going to get up and give your speech and every single person in the room is gonna be thinking ‘why isn’t he marrying her?’”
  • Good for her getting rid of that guy and this whole courtesan business. Now she’s going to be an independent escort.
  • Ben called off the wedding! “I don’t want to marry you, but when I realized that, I realized I don’t want to marry her either.”
  • It’s cute how close Ben is with her family. Too bad that Jackie stuff will wreck that.
  • “As long as one person knows you entirely and loves you still” aww, cute way to end the season on a very Hannah/Ben note.

Final Thoughts

I love the first season, but I’m really looking forward to season two because I LOVE Bambi! Can’t believe I just marathoned the whole season in one night. Time to get this ready to post!

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 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 3x05 "Let the Games Commence"

We left off last time with Kate officially joining the gang and I think, if I recall correctly, this episode has the first appearance of Isabella and the return of Guy. Is this the lion episode? I feel like this is the episode with a random lion in it, but I don't remember much else. Let's begin! Thoughts While Watching It's Isabella! I was right! Out of all the new characters for season three, she's the one I remember liking the best.  Yeah, kick his ass, girl! Love how she faked him out! Okay, so...I barely remember anything about season three which is making this difficult for me to understand. If I recall correctly, in the flashback episode (Bad Blood? I think...) it's revealed that Robin knew both Guy and Isabella when they were children. I'm guessing he just doesn't recognize her here. Do they bring up the fact that he knows her and knew Guy had a sister at all before that episode? Or do they just make it seem like Robin forgot about them? I...
