YOU
Netflix Original Series
Season 2 Premiers 12.26.19
Like many, we became fans of the stalker/ thriller YOU which began on Lifetime for its first season and starting on Dec 26th will continue as a Netflix Original Series. If you've yet to see the first season or need a quick refresh - we've got you. We meet Joe Goldberg (Gossip Girl's Penn Badgley), an owner of a bookstore in NYC who falls in love with a customer Guinevere Beck, (Elizabeth Lail) who becomes his girlfriend. We begin to see his increased stalking behavior as well as a number of things about his life to show that this is not his first time dancing with a deadly obsession. We also see how he interacts with her friends such as his relationship with Peach Salinger (Shay Mitchell).
We end the season realizing that his ex girlfriend Candace is alive and that he will be starting over in LA. We can't wait to do a proper binge of the second season during the holiday!
BLOODTIES
Wondery
Spotify
We love when we listen to one show and we're given a heads up about another. As we transitioned from Thanksgiving to Christmas, we found out about Wondery's scripted show, Blood Ties a True Crime podcast where we meet Eleonore and Michael Richland (played by Gillian Jacobs and Josh Gad) as they find out that they have just lost their parents while they were on the way to seeing them for a visit.
The death of their parents is amplified when they realize that their world is forever changed and that the secrets of their successful father will not only come to light but ruin his legacy. As a renowned cardiologist and health care magnate whose sun is also a doctor, there is much at stake as they learn more about his life.
BACHELOR HAPPY HOUR
Bachelor Nation | Wondery
Spotify
Readers know that each season we enjoy tweeting along with you and giving our theories of who is going to Hometowns and who will be the winner of the next Bachelor/Bachelorette. Starting Jan 6th, ABC's The Bachelor is back with Peter Weber. This month, they have released this season's contestants so we can hit the ground running on this successful franchise.
This year, we're making sure that we listen to Bachelor Happy Hour, a podcast with Bachelor Nation and Wondery. Each week The Bachelorette's Rachel Lindsay (who is also host of MTV's Ghosted) gives insight onto what's happening in the house.
If you have yet to listen to the show or missed the latest episode, Rachel sat down with Becca (The Bachelorette) to talk about their first thoughts on the contestants that are entering The Bachelor. They also shared who they thought would have a good run in the house, who may not be there too long, Hometown selections and who will win ultimately. They also wondered about whether last season's The Bachelorette Hannah Brown, will come back to the house as well!
This is a great show to enjoy while you wait for new episodes of The Bachelor and to see who Rachel will have on as a guest as the season continues!
