In this bonus ep, Em and Sue discuss some stuff we’ve been watching since Bates went away. We discuss (in varying degrees of detail and success): The End of the Tour, Happy Valley, Room, The Great British Baking Show, the newest season of OITNB*, American Gothic, Preacher, The Boy, The Conjouring 2, Em’s weird Mubi movies (Werner Herzog marathons, The Best of Youth, A Spattering of political fueled docs including ones about Greenwich Village in the 60’s, Japan’s nuclear horses, and Pussy Riot), The Invitation, Bloodline, and Deadwood. Then we discuss more as we read your feedback and recommends. (We may or may not have entered an unholy pact with Val.) I enjoy a lot watching tv since I got a ceiling tv mount so I can watch tv from my bed.
*Because of reasons, we decided to do a separate discussion in a bit about Orange is the New Black and Stranger Things.

This season is winding down, but wow- what a way to do it. These eps have twists and turns, surprises, and fun guest stars. Em and Sue were quite impressed, I must say. Join us as we talk about the 2 almost final eps, but they really seem like the final eps. Weird.
This week Em and Sue learn who Miss Lonleyhearts is and we find it pretty sad and pathetic. Topher imprints a friend, which we find a little sad but not so pathetic. And we find out some surprising things about Dominic, surprising and a little confusing. We also decide Haunted was a great concept, but poorly executed. High society horse people don’t interest us.
This week Em and Sue watch Dollhouse, and we get a little backstory on the dolls. We discuss our latest theories on where we think the show is going, and what the new episodes might be about. But most importantly WHO IS LONELY HEARTS? And even more importantly– are those chaps for her?
In this episode, Em and Sue discuss these two pivotal eps of Dollhouse. We also discuss the footwear fashion of cult dresses, and Sue schools everyone about the proper pronunciation of “Zion”. We also had some Mosey like audio problems, but nothing that will effect your listening too much except that we got started too late, therefore unable to discuss the last season of Orange is the New Black as planned. Maybe next week…
Em and Sue are watching their second batch Dollhouses and while pop divas aren’t our favorite thing, we manage to overall find the show intriguing. Sort of. We like art at least. And heists. And heists gone wrong. We also apparently like to discuss the slippery slope that is “consent”.
Listen and Em and Sue embark on a new journey– undertaking Eliza Dushku’s Dollhouse. We will attack the series 2 episodes at a time, starting this week with the pilot Ghost and The Target.
