The ladies finally dig in to the period drama everyone's been talking about: Bridgerton. From favorite siblings to Season 2 hopes, Lacy and Ani discuss what works and what doesn't about Netflix's big Regency hit.

Contributor Janet Mullany joins the ladies to discuss the premiere of the new All Creatures Great and Small remake and why its gentle, comforting vibes could not have possibly arrived in the television landscape at a better moment. 

In our last episode of 2020, we bring back contributors Janet Mullany and Carmen Croghan for a roundtable about the year that was: What we liked, what we didn't, and everything in between.
