  • Promising Young Woman is a MUST see movie

    I had heard the buzz around Promising Young Woman but let’s put it this way – the movie is better than the buzz. It is an incredible movie impeccably executed by a rising star director/writer and a killer cast. Promising Young Woman is a movie about a young woman named Cassie (Carey Mulligan), as she

  • Like the real thing, I’m so disappointed with Locked Down

    Let me start by saying that I’m in a *terrible* mood. Case counts are up and I’m really upset about it. I hear my friends who are nurses talking about the seriousness of the situation. I am all for going into a hard lockdown. But there is no real leadership from our political leaders. Here

  • Ratatouille: The Tik Tok Musical was phenomenal

    I’m slightly addicted to Tik Tok. I’ll admit it. I’m on some ‘niche’ Tik Toks but my favourite genre of Tik Tok content the algorithm gives me is Musical Theatre Tik Tok. I get spoon-fed a healthy dose of jokes about theatre kids, stage managers, and musical memes. I’m very into it. So I like

  • Escapism TV for January 2021

    *Sigh* – well friends I want the refund on my seven day trail for 2021. I am horrified by the events in the US and I’ve spent the last 48 hours glued to the TV (I stayed up until 1am watching the coverage on Wednesday). There are a lot of jokes floating around about how

  • Bridgerton: full of potential but I wanted more.

    I wanted to love Bridgerton. From the moment I heard about the project, I was excited to watch it. On paper, it was perfect: a period drama with a gossip girl twist. As more details and trailers came out the hype continued to build. It had all the components of a show that I would

  • Year in Review 2020: TV Shows

    I have watched a lot of TV this year. When people say that they’ve ‘finished Netflix’… I get it. I often joke that watching TV for me is “professional development” or “research”. In many ways it is – I try really hard to keep up with trends in my industry and watch as many shows

  • Year in Review 2020: Books

    This blog is pretty much exclusively about visual content – television predominantly with a mix of movies, music videos, and other screen-based things. However today I want to talk about books! I’d consider myself a reader. I pretty much always have a book on the go and I’d say I’d average a book every other

  • Bachelorette 2020: a season to remember

    Welcome back to another Bachelor related post. As previously established – I’m a massive fan of the franchise from an industry point of view and as a viewer who loves romantic reality shows. I traditionally love The Bachelorette the best out of all the Bachelor related franchises and I loved this season. I think this

  • Paula’s Holiday Movie Guide 2020

    I adore the holidays and everything that goes along with them. The parties, the shopping, the holiday parades, the ugly sweaters… and of course the pop culture! I’m talking about movies, holiday specials on TV shows, and the music! I just love all of it. This year, I’m not in the holiday spirit. I’m not

  • The Prom wasn’t THAT bad…

    I’ve always loved musicals. It was such a treat growing up watching Mirivis shows and I loved going to local productions that my friends were in. I loved watching movie musicals and I’ve made a lot of friends through a shared love of musicals. When I lived in England I was going to a West
