Mamamia Reviews

Everyone's been obsessing lately over Netflix's series YOU, especially Penn Badgley's character Joe. 

The show is set in New York and follows a bookstore manager who falls in love with a writer and goes to extreme lengths, including murder, to make sure he gets the girl. 

Join Clare Stephens and Nicolle Stuart on this weeks episode of The Recap as they chat about what they think makes the show so good, and what parts of the show are so problematic.

It's fair to say Bird Box is one of the most talked about movies in 2019 and was the reasoning behind the worldwide Bird Box challenge. 

Set five years after an unseen force drives people to commit suicide, Bird Box follows the story of a mother, played by Sandra Bullock, and her desperate attempt to guide her children to safety... Blindfolded

Clare Stephens and Adam Bub are here to unpack everything, Is this just a different version of 'A Quiet Place'? What does the film actually mean and what were the plotholes? 

Just a warning, this podcast discusses adult themes and may be triggering for some people.

Scarlet Magazine isn't real. But according to former Cosmopolitan Editor Mia Freedman, it's as close to real as a television drama can get. If you're not too sure what we're talking about, you obviously haven't watched The Bold Type. But we're here to tell you that you need to. 

The Bold Type on Stan was inspired by the life of a former Cosmopolitan Editor-In-Chief Joanna Coles, and it follows three 20-something women, Sutton, Jane and Kat, who work at Scarlet magazine, a glossy title that’s moving away from centering on beauty and fashion, and championing a new focus on feminism and politics (and a whole lotta racy sexy tips.) 

It touches on work wives, relationship dramas, career progression, sexuality, the #metoo movement and white privilege.

It's captured the hearts of LOTS of Australian women. But does it live up to all of the hype? Should it be compared to Sex And The City? And was it really like working at Cosmo? Rachel Corbett, Mia Freedman and Amy Clark discuss...

It's your gripping British cop drama with an unpredictable twist or two (as well as a few predictable ones). Stan's Bodyguard tells the fictional story of Police Sergeant David Budd (Richard Madden), an heroic British war veteran living in London with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Budd's new job sees him working in a specialist branch of London's Metropolitan Police Service, protecting British Home Secretary Julia Montague (played by Keeley Hawes). If you're murder/mystery/drama tragic, this series is right up your alley. We unpack the the Bodyguard plot points that have everyone talking, and dive deep into the major plot holes we can't get over. This is the ultimate Bodyguard recap.

Dolly Parton, beauty pageants and a message we'd love to see on the big screen more often. That's Dumplin', the film produced by Jennifer Aniston's company Echo Films following charismatic teenager Willowdean Dickson (Danielle Macdonald) on a song-filled journey of self-acceptance. Driven by the passion of her late Aunt Lucy, Willowdean struggles with identity, her overbearing Pageant-Queen-Mother (Jennifer Aniston), and body image issues far too common amongst teen girls. And with a splash of Dolly Parton thrown in for good measure, this is a feel-good discovery film with a twist we need to talk about.

From his early days dabbling in small-scale drug smuggling operations to the height of his blood-soaked cocaine empire, Narcos Seasons 1 and 2 looks at the life of one of the world's most infamous men, Pablo Escobar. We discuss the confronting violence of the series, his relationship with Valeria Velez and wife Tata, Wagner Moura's slimming down to play the role of Pablo, and what the show gets wrong according to Escobar's son who is still alive. This is the ultimate recap of Narcos Seasons 1 and 2.

We made it everyone! It's finale week!!

After a season of Magic Mike wannabes, avocado funerals & the word FIT being so overused we never want to hear it again, it all came down to Todd and Taite.

Bill was sent home (finally) after lying about his ex/current girlfriend Amy and Todd told Ali she wanted her to be the mother of her children. Which pretty much guaranteed he was dead man walking.

The family met the final two and Taite told Ali he wasn't sure about all this marriage and babies talk.

Then, once again, we saw someone who'd done exactly what the Bacherolette asked him to do get his heart torn into a million tiny pieces.

Ain't love grand.

Jessie Stephens is away so Clare is joined by Rachel Corbett to dissect the final moments of Ali's search for love.

It's hometown week for Ali and some of the men clearly missed the memo because they forgot to bring their families.

Charlie and Bill decided to have a wet T-shirt competition before Charlie completely loses it and the sweatiest Daniel of all was sent home.

Jessie and Clare Stephens are chomping at the bit to unpack it all on this week's episode of Bach Chat.

Paddy has left the Bachelorette mansion and hopefully that's the last time any of us ever have to hear the word "FIT."

Osher's weird games have made a return and it looks like there's a new front-runner...Todd.

We had a group date filled with horrible dancing (and Ivan wasn't even there), a visit to a fake apocalyptic wasteland and Ali beat up Charlie.

There's a lot going on and Clare and Jessie Stephens are here to take you through it all.

This week on The Bachelorette, Ali farewelled two perfectly good avocados along with Ivan, Jules and Danny.  I think it's safe to say the next reality TV show we won't be seeing Ivan on is Masterchef.

We were treated to bike building, a scavenger hunt and Ali's mates showed up to judge her taste in men.  Bill survived the dreaded double date and Patty's stopped saying "FIT"...at least for now.

So let's wade through the avocado mush and mourn the loss of a perfectly good food processor together as Clare and Jessie Stephens unpack this week's Bachelorette.
