August 20, 2025 Sanditon TV (S2, E3&4): "Pour Some Sugar on Me"
Rivalries, reveals, and rebuffs abound in Sanditon! We're still feeling a bit more Brontë than Austen, but we'll lean into what the creators gave us and dive into these B-plots with aplomb, from boycotts to babies.

June 11, 2025 Sanditon TV (S1, E3&4): "We Listen and We Don't Judge"
...Okay, maybe we judge a little. But the characters in these two episodes started it!
