    'Bridgerton' Season 4 Part 1 Reaction
    Feb 9 2026
    Dearest gentle readers, we’re back in the ton breaking down Bridgerton Season 4, Part 1, where it is at last Benedict’s moment. The forever-free-spirited second son finds his world shaken when a mysterious Lady in Silver crashes Violet’s masquerade, and suddenly settling down doesn’t seem so dreadful. We dig into Benedict’s season 3 development, first impressions of Sophie Baek, the upstairs/downstairs romance tease, and whether this love story is hitting its marks. Plus, all the juicy B-plots: Penelope’s fame (and royal scrutiny), Fran and John’s return, Eloise on the shelf, Hyacinth ready to debut, Lady Danbury itching to escape the ton, and Violet’s long-neglected garden finally getting some attention.

    LIVE Reaction to 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' Pilot Episode
    Jan 19 2026
    We’re riding back into Westeros with Dunk & Egg, George R.R. Martin’s lighter, lore-rich prequel following the unlikely duo of Ser Duncan the Tall and his sharp squire, Egg—set about 90 years before Game of Thrones. We break down how this series fits between House of the Dragon and ASOIAF, dig into the three original novellas, and react to a pilot that’s surprisingly breezier (yes, including some truly unhinged Westerosi gross-out moments). From tourneys at Ashford to meta jokes, lighter music, and the birth of a legendary partnership, we wrap by picking favorite moments and deciding if we’re all in for the season ahead.
