We didn't have to "try" to love this week's film from 1998, Ever After*. Join us to fawn all over Drew Barrymore's excellent take on Cinderella and skewer the holiday rom-com industrial complex. Additionally, one of us has a general suspicion of identical twins (spoiler alert, it's Nana) while the other is skeptical of fraternal twins (spoiler alert, it's Misan). Check it out and find out why!

*Stream Ever After on Disney+.

It was almost a mini ep, but we had a lot to say about other stuff ::shrug:: Join Nana and Misan this week as we discuss Prom Pact,* Disney's new homage to (or subversion of?) classic 80s teen movies. Also, waltz down memory lane with us as we wax nostalgic about DCOMs. Zenon, forever!

Sigh, the mini episode that never was. Nana and Misan have A LOT to say about Netflix's Queen Charlotte,* and we couldn't keep it down to a short review, but can we ever? This show packs everything--multiple time lines, lofty social experiments, mental health disorder, and the desires of mature women--but does the love story pack a punch? Join us this week to find out our thoughts (note: Misan has VERY strong thoughts).

Possible new addition to the rom com canon? Join Nana and Misan this week as we deep dive into Raine Allen Miller's much lauded debut -- Rye Lane*--and discuss whether it has the makings of a rom com classic, including that oh-so-ephemeral quality we call chemistry. Also, because we can't seem to escape Joe Fox's clutches, catch our follow-up to You've Got Mail in Rom News.

Watch out for some mild spoilers about Love Is Blind Season 4 (pre-"live" reunion) during the HEA section!

*Stream Rye Lane on Hulu
