In the first of our series on director Alfred Hitchcock's movies, we tackle Rear Window starring James Stewart and Grace Kelly. Spoilers abound as we discuss whodunit, why, and our (disturbingly detailed) theories on the "how". We fixate on Grace Kelly's wardrobe and accent, and Chloe educates us on why Hitchcock was not the best human.

We're back with our shallow deep dive series, with Sandy finally discussing her fascination with the ill-fated Romanovs. This is the story of Nicholas, Alexandra, Rasputin, and the events that brought about the fall of an empire. We also find out how Sandy ruined her friend's childhood, along with Chloe's dreams, with the news that "Anastasia" was wildly inaccurate. Major trigger warnings and spoiler alert here: it does not end well - at all - and there is a dog involved. We're sorry!

We're back from our holiday break! And what did we do during our vacation? We watched Glass Onion. And then we watched it again. And Knives Out. In this episode, we talk about Benoit Blanc and the gang, and compare his exploits (unfavorably) with Kenneth Branagh's Poirot. *Spoilers ahead!*

This is our Christmas gift for you cookies - an early episode drop! It's Jingle bops for the Jingle season. We share our playlist of favorite Christmas tunes that you can play in the background as you do your gift-wrapping and other last-minute holiday prep - if that's your jam - or that you can listen to quietly if you just want to bask in the tradition that is Sad Girl Christmas. We got you.

We'll be taking a short break so we want to wish you all a  wonderful, peaceful holiday season. See you in 2023!

It's the newest addition to our Halloween movie marathon! Let's talk about Hocus Pocus 2 and all the things: Billy Butcherson in drag, why Bette Midler is so cool, Sandy's obsession with Hannah Waddingham's arms, tangents about Nailed It!, and probably the most important question of all: who did SJP's brows?

War! What is it good for? Absolutely nothing. But we do talk about our favorite war movies like Saving Private Ryan and Stalag 17. Chloe asks and Sandy answers: what is the Geneva convention? What is the "D" in D-Day? And we *think* we finally understand what actually happened in World War 1.
