On repeat for Hillary - April 14, 2023

Scandoval has been shelved and my full focus is now obsessing over the final season of Succession. Three episodes in and I'm already planning my binge from season 1 that will begin immediately following the finale. 


A biased fan girl, in my opinion, Succession is nothing short of another masterpiece from Jesse Armstrong. (Any Peep Show fans reading this besides my husband?) Underpinning the smart and often biting writing is a showcase of the human heart, mind, and psyche laced together in a way that is universally relatable on some level - even if not clearly on the surface. It’s what makes the show irresistible to me and it’s millions of viewers I’m sure. 


This season has an unintended buzz factor for other news junkies out there as news broke this week that Rupert Murdoch’s soon to be ex wife has been barred from speaking with Succession writers in official court filings of their divorce settlement and other “sources” claim a son has been accused of feeding lines to the writer’s room by his brother. Relatable indeed … more so to some than others I suppose.

Currently, Can’t Get Enough Of… - April 8th, 2023

  1. Martha…the one and only. From the thirst traps to her BFF Snoop, she’s always been a baddie. But her latest drinking-a-margarita-out-of-a-measuring-cup-while-speaking-on-a-panel move is such a mood. Like, elite level. And her reps statement confirming that it “was her famous pomegranate Martha-rita”…chefs kiss. (Yes, that’s Hillary and I with the Marg Queen herself several years ago. We’re still shaking with fear…)

Living Rent Free in Hillary’s Brain - March 31, 2023

Where are we watching the Vanderpump Rules reunion?! I’m actively trying to avoid all the spoilers and sneak previews from the reunion to keep whatever shred of mystery remains around Scandova. If this reads like a foreign language to you, may I please direct your undivided attention to the following recap, written with Bravo novices in mind and conveniently void of spoilers:

So I ask again - who is hosting the reunion viewing?! My living room is open and snacks will be aplenty.
