Secret Diary of a Call Girl 2x02

So this is the episode in which Hannah considers getting a boob job and Bambi deals with a dangerous client. Let's start watching!

Is Secret Diary of a Call Girl: Season 2: Episode 2 on Netflix USA?

Thoughts While Watching

  • “I’ll put self-employed.” I’m laughing so hard at this. She really doesn’t need any work.
  • You know what I find interesting? She uses her clients for real life stuff. One of her clients does her taxes, now one of them is a plastic surgeon she’s going to see, but both of those things would require her real identity to be disclosed, right? Her taxes and her health insurance and all the legal and medical forms would have to be done under the name Hannah Baxter, not Belle No-last-name. Does that bother her at all? Isn’t it breaking her rule of keeping things separate?
  • I’m kind of getting tired of her making comments about how she can’t do this or can’t do that because she’s a prostitute.
  • She looks so worried for Bambi. It’s so sweet.
  • Bambi’s so adorable. I love how scared she is of Stephanie, how offended she gets about the porn comment, and how she stands up for herself anyway.
  • Stephanie cracks me up though. I love how snarky she is about everything.
  • Bambi was so shady in her first two episodes but I love her anyway.
  • David and Belle’s kind of almost-friendship they have is kind of cute. I mean, I know they’re client and escort but Belle seems to form almost friendships with some of them.
  • I love her freakout with the mustache!
  • At least that mustache faded somewhat before she got to her date. How did she not notice?
  • “Sometimes I like to draw facial hair on myself.” I’m dying. Poor Alex, he’s so confused.
  • I didn’t like the actor’s delivery of the line “What do you do?”
  • My mother in law had to get her breast implants taken out because they were recalled or something like that. He’s not wrong.
  • I love that she drops everything to go help Bambi and immediately stops caring about their fight. Her idea of looking for the shampoo bottles was pretty clever too.
  • Did Bambi used to cut herself?
  • Aww, she let Bambi stay the night. Bambi really wasn’t ever cut out for this job and in a lot of ways she’s almost like the anti-Belle, which becomes more apparent next season with Byron.

Final Thoughts

Was Ben even in this episode? I think he was missing. Interesting.

I'm glad that they showed how cautious you have to be about screening clients, what some of the red flags are that you need to be aware of, and how dangerous it is to just jump in without proper research or security. Belle has a better idea of what she's doing and how to screen clients because she's been at this a lot longer and learned the ropes while working for an agency but Bambi doesn't get that jumping straight into being independent before you have experience can be risky. I will say that Bambi is obviously doing some research since she reached out to Belle in the first place, but she definitely needs to slow down a bit. I'm so glad that everything worked out alright for her here and that the guy left and Hannah came over in time. That whole situation has to be terrifying.

Robin Hood 2x13 "We Are Robin Hood!"

Here we are...at the season two finale. It happened too fast! The first two seasons of this show are absolutely amazing and wonderful, but then this episode is the turning point. The show made two horrible mistakes here and it will never recover from them in the third and final season. The third season is missing all of the magic that made the first two seasons so great. It almost feels like a different show in some ways, in my opinion anyway. As much as I would've loved to stop before the season two two-part finale and just go back to the beginning again, the rewatch must go on. So here we go... Warning: This post randomly includes two bullet points with Buffy the Vampire Slayer spoilers. I give a spoiler alert right before I go into my points (I'm comparing similar aspects between the two shows), but be cautious if you haven't seen/finished Buffy, plan to watch Buffy, and you're the type of person whose eyes wander around the page.

Robin Hood 1x05 "Turk Flu"

It's Djaq's first episode!!! Yay! I've been looking forward to this! Djaq is my absolute favorite character in the show. I don't think this needs much of a lengthy introduction and I'm really eager to get started and see Djaq, so let's just get right into it! Thoughts While Watching: The episode opens with some kind of catastrophe at the Treeton Mine, people are dead, and Guy shows up to terrorize the villagers. This annoying kid Rowan is talking to his father and tells him to stand up to the sheriff. Every time a character on this show tells their father to stand up to the sheriff, the father dies. Every. Time. It happens to Rowan's dad, it happens to Will's dad, and it happens to Marian's dad.  Rowan's dad tells Guy that the miners are going on strike, Guy informs the sheriff of this who then taunts him that he shouldn't be giving them choices, and Guy kills him. That's "good man" Guy of Gisborne for you. The sherif...

Robin Hood 2x10 "Walkabout"

We're getting down to the last couple of episodes of the show's golden age before it starts spiraling downward and out of control and it's making me sad just thinking about it...but we're not there yet! We still have a couple great episodes to go! In this one we have definitive proof that the sheriff was not lying about his pact with Prince John because all of Nottingham is about to be destroyed when the sheriff decides to go sleepwalking and is missing on the designated check-in day. This is a fun one, so let's get into it. Thoughts While Watching: We open with a confusing but kind of hilarious scene where the sheriff is having a nightmare about Robin stealing the Pact, he keeps mumbling about it in his sleep, and he wakes up in the middle of the forest in his black silk pjs. Guy shows up at the castle and finds Prince John's envoy there who explains that he meets with the sheriff every other Thursday to make sure he's still okay, but today he'...
