"Yeah so i think some of and then you know it's really interesting. Because now she mostly races gene krenz. But even this book unlike sandra brown where all her books have been lake read title like they have the same titles. But now say sandra brown these folks when you go to amazon still say amanda quick. Well i think that's because amanda quick. It is amanda quick. I mean it's a different kind of thing than all those old. When you talk about sandra brown and rachel ryan and aaron sinclair the the other pseudonyms that she or not the other but the pseudonyms that used which she talked about a little bit in our trailblazers episode with her. Those names weren't as known as amanda quick when you find. Jd grennell has omega lightning. Strike a million times right. I mean it's j. d. Rob and nora roberts right. There's a sense of. Amanda quick has her own identity in historical rate. And so why would you gum it up by changing the name. Literally the the the the legend is an i mean. I guess it's not a legend. Because i think it's true when julia quinn chose her pen name. She chose quinn so that you will be next to quick on the shelf which is a good move very. i mean. We've all done that in another like really made a lot. Reluctant to w make omar. Sorry well as you know. We are so similar. Here's the thing though. She still writing books as amanda quick right like she has a whole new series of his recent series of historical. 's that have gorgeous covers. That are all set in like the nineteen twenties. Yeah so you know. I mean this is also. She's kind of catches legend. She's a legend mouth. And when you read this you're gonna know why. Yeah i mean so here. We are or reading ravished it's part of a series of these one word titles yes each one as leash delicious as the wrestler. Yeah there's i'm rendezvous rendezvous so you can go and read all the books in the series and you'll be glee as delighted as you were here.

"It's something that we all sort of mean to talk about because it is sort of hetero normative and there's you know there's a lot about it that is that needs to be unpacked and i think it's a conversation that it's healthy for us to have as romance as people who talk about romance but i also acknowledged that like i love the baby in epilogue so but i also have a baby and baby so whatever. That's a personal problem. If you're now if your choice is it's your body your choice. Your marriage your choice your partnership your choice and that's all we're just trying to get at. Yeah there's a lot of books with miscarriages. Yeah i mean i. I wanted to shout out my favorite julia quinn novel. Which is the secret. Diaries of ms miranda cheever may not be miss marin achiever but secret diaries of miss of miranda cheever. There's a miscarriage in that book. That his devastating. I honestly believe that. Julia quinn's best book. It is emotional and intense and the miscarriage is so important but again. It's told through the lens of the heroine's experience and i know you have thoughts about this. We've talked about that women. If it's happening to your body your expect you own it right. yeah. I believe that i totally do. It also makes sense to me that romance with like i dunno like mine miscarriage as possible topic because it is so personal because so much of romances about about hope and in right so like exploring the ways in which women like experience failure but then like bounce back and figure out who they are after that i think that for many women and i also think you're right like it's not so it's very hard to talk about but then in a book it gives you a way to like. Have that experience right like your your with your this. Heroin becomes your friend rate. Who's going through the sa- carrion and. I think that that is something that it's a way for us to sort of collectively share our like miscarriage stories kind of with each other. Sure you know. Loss of a child is normalized in romance and any data valuable. That's valuable for every woman every one of that. Twenty four percent or twenty five percent of women of pregnancies. What's interesting is that twenty five percent of women before they turn twenty four. They turned forty. Five in the united states will have an abortion. And we have not normalized abortion. No no we sure. Have that as a genre yeah. Here's the bad way we normalized it. I hate this way. I do too and i'm real fucking over. Which is the hero has been traumatized by asks who had a an abortion that he didn't want her to have. Yeah she either. Didn't tell him and then she told him to stick it to him or yeah tell him she was pregnant and then he found out the a. It's real bad luck. That noise it with fire. That really needs to die. And you know what those are plots actually two that have been around a really long time in one way or another. I wanna. I'm gonna confessed something which is twenty years ago when those plots were everywhere. I liked that. 'cause i was like oh they again. It sort of says like it's a co co codifying like nobility of the hero right like it's codifying maturity readiness for commitment willingness to.

"He made it big in some ways. Though in being rather automotive brute fabrio was getting his role exactly right if you read the books of the seventies and early eighties heroes are impenetrable. They are blank. Slates of just kind of intense masculine pride and arrogance and they lack a capacity for emotion and for feeling and their ciphers in any case fabio and other hyper masculine men in passionate embraces. With their leading ladies were plastered all over romance covers in the nineteen eighties and wrapping the books in these covers. Really it did two things in my opinion one. It said this is the book. You're getting right. You're gonna get a woman who is in touch with her sexual identity and in touch with her pleasure in the center of the story and she's going to triumph at the end you'll be able to read this an explore safely your own fantasies and also the cover said men keep out. This isn't for you which both increased the likelihood that women would buy these books and also increased the level of disdain that society started to have for these books because if therefore women than surely can't value you can hear the contempt that the larger culture had for romance in this episode of nightline from the nineteen eighties. The segment is one part news about the success of the genre and one part unsolicited lecture product. Have about as much to do with classical literature as big mac has to do with three points cooking but of course not. Everybody likes which sophisticated food so william faulkner ernest. Hemingway do heartburn. That these could just be your. Here's writing for nightline and washington when we return we'll talk live with two women who make their living off romance novels and understandably think is more genre than titillating trash and later. I look at some of the historic this week aboard the space shuttle challenger. Ooh yikes through the years. People like ted koppel and his correspondent and cod. I guess maybe me have found lots of reasons to look down on. Romance romance is formulaic predictable. Badly written the is very used to being judged on the whole julia quinn. Who wrote bridgeton one of the things that she says. A lot and i think is really valuable is other genres. Get judged on the very best of their writing and romans gets judged on the very worst that often you know. Romance gets dinged for so many unfair things that i think are almost entirely related to patriarchy. Did i not respond well to romance and romance covers because of straight up sexism. I mean that feels possible. I'm not dismissing it. But i think also maybe through most of my life growing up as a queer person. Didn't see myself in those clinches and i wasn't the only one who didn't usually y couples on the cover. This is nicole perkins. She writes about how culture hosts a podcast called. This is good for you. And is a longtime reader romance even though as a young black person in the nineteen eighties. She also didn't see herself in the covers. And what i would do is i would stay away from blonde people If there were blind people on the cover did not kick those up. So i picked up. I would pick up the covers with dark haired white people. Because i would pretend that they were black and just very fair skinned in nineteen seventy four. A writer named an shockley put out a lesbian. Interracial romance called loving her. But you'd have had a hard time finding it in any mainstream bookstores and then in one thousand nine hundred. Eighty a black editor at dell name vivian. Stevens published a few black heterosexual romances but by and large the genre was white and straight and the early black romances tended to be a little more chased if i recall correctly. Sex seem to be more alluded. To because i i remember that was also part of my frustration with the early black romances. That i read was preteen. And then an adolescence i wanted. I wanted the good stuff. But then came the author. Beverly jenkins she was definitely a big deal but really jenkins is black and she writes deeply researched historical romances featuring black characters and while her sex scenes in those early books weren't strongly explicit. They weren't completely hidden behind a closed door either. She also gave the world. The first truly steamy clinch cover featuring black characters and she kept going book after book with black people in passionate embraces on the covers to see those covers. I mean obviously at the time people were still teasing women for reading romances. And things like that but It was still also appointed prior to be able to showcase a book with black people in these kind of very intimates expressive embraces That were clearly indicating there some physical intimacy here and somebody is going to be kissed along their spine at some point.

"It more as a contemporary opera. Oh that's a really good question because it. It works on two levels and i always intended for that because as soon as they the americans picked up the rights to the book sold into penguin. I feel a lot of americans aren't gonna have a clue about any of this stuff even if they seem the cheetah's tv Not going to get all these references so when we did a sort of another edits i. I was very aware but it needed to work. Even if you didn't have a clue about what was the real stories behind this was so there are all sorts of little what they will easter eggs in there which will go wherever Things like as a bowl of pomegranates. On katie's table announced. Catherine american symbol and henry loved playing tennis sons in the new one. I've got ice cream. Bam playing green sleeves. This will mean nothing to a lot of people but the peed there are other people out there who are massive few defense and they love this stuff and they pick up on that. And i've had a couple of historians who right blocks who had picked up the books in a number of them and relax of looking out for rule as little references. In how i've changed that soviet is very much a two level thing on the thing. I like best of all is when a rita might know pretty much nothing but then they go away and find out so i'm kind of of education going on as well. I'm very into educating people about history in learning from past mistakes and history was repeating itself. Said i love it when happens. I'm just wondering if it ever happens to come a tv version of this. We would be take took direct director to actually include some footage of the chewed. Time-warp thing because it would kind of make very fascinating to have that there. I think in the book i thought about. How could you do it in the book. And i thought not probably just would be too hard but maybe in a film version. It might be easier to to play that the parallel lines to an interesting things where they do. You know the real the real story behind like so when i in my books. I've put blog posts on the website. You little biographies of the real people and portrait showing how they evolve through their rain so i don all-wise john henry and not just done elizabeth. Mary and i'm gonna do robot dudley and then the next book i'm going to the plan so hopefully when people read ben if they want to find out more they can go to my website and read these little mini by. Is that the people in learn about what really happened. So the same thing happening tv or film would be stick. Yeah i think. I was thinking about british in in the way that nate. Flat handle brinton. Because i went back and look at the julia quinn books which were published in two thousand and they didn't have that whole reliable black queen and i didn't have the the sort of location of quite a lot of guys six succeed. I realized that twenty years ago. That wouldn't have been you wouldn't have been able to include that slightly surreal stuff on a straight romance novel. But they had to kind of spice it up a bit and i thought the might be a similar thing happening with if you get if you spoke maiden teeny time on plex. They could well put that kind of overlay. I read this was a thought i had. I mean this as a new series on amber lynn. Coming out with a black berlin on right on saving controversy about the fact that she is a black in balloon. Yeah it's divided capable and it's so interesting what you all. The discussions are happening she. She's beat history or is it more about the spirit of the person it's fascinating and the difference failed between my second book assist to end. The first book is the first book is set. Sort of nine thousand nine hundred five up until the 2018. Second one is very much now and so there's a lot. There's a lot more looking at the kind of gay and pan sexual relationships. And i had talked my daughter when she was nineteen knows rightey twenty now about all that side of things. Because i wanted it. I wanted to get it right. And it's so different now and we have to build buy into our stores. Yeah so going back to the parallels. Maybe two bigger battery tried to return england to callosum after father's quarter cin revolution and maria in the story tries to impose fundamentalist christian values on what was a fairly liberal minded family empire. They uncanny similarities. They're getting out there yet. So i thought about how the the conflict between elizabeth and mary and mary to too was i have. I have a lot of sympathy for Been reading a lot more about at eton. Sorry wrote the book and she. She was a really unhappy person. She had such a sad life. It was just awful but she was fanatical when it came to burning heretics. She honestly believed that. These poor people had no chance guy tavern unless they were burned at the stake and by the time she finished Knocking on three hundred people and the being people at had just had enough. You know they they sick seek they were desperate to have what the various Who the new is going to be much more moderate on the throne. So that was. I felt about how those sort of attitudes. How could i bring them into the modern day. I thought really the most fundamental people in the west in christian. religion are those kind of evangelical. But i didn't want to offend anyone. So phil seville my evangelical empire rula. He's actually a bit of fraud. So i think cut made that quite clear that he's he's like those american evangelists who just make billions and billions and fail. They don't actually believe a lot of air preaching but maria kohl's does so that's the tragedy is that she falls in love with this man who's actually afford and.

"Pr la pod that's hashtag and be l. a. Wpro all right. Let's talk law. What have you got happening. Welcome you know. We've talked a lot about the me too. Movement on this show and impact on the workplace. I was looking at some of the some of the stats in preparing for the the segment of the show today and i came across a harris poll from the late late. Twenty twenty Of over a thousand. Us employees who said six percent of them said that the metoo movement has had a positive impact on how sexual harassment is addressed in the workplace. And what. I think that that at least in terms of my experience dealing with employers employees probably about about right and that you know a lot of employers thankfully they haven't just been paying lip service to these issues cam They've been implementing actual substantive reform so things like revisions to policies and procedures manuals around sexual harassment developing workplace training to actually educate staff on. What inappropriate behavior looks like because contrary to what you might think a lot of employees still to this day aren't really clear on where those lines need to be drawn in a workplace context so You know lots of good training around that and then clear. Policies and procedures on reporting appropriate behavior when it occurs and this is always always such an issue when an event occurs a workplace particularly at an event of sexual harassment. How do you report it. How do we deal with that So we we've seen some really really really good development around these issues cam but one of the industries. of course. that's face the greatest reckoning and it's exactly where it started is film and television right. Yeah yeah well you know in rather than wade into the bad. I actually wanted to talk about a positive story this week in my segments cameras. you know. we're not really dealing with the the the good ways you know. This is wrong and problem. Blurs aren't doing this and employees shouldn't do that. Well you know. I think this is actually a positive outcome of the of the metoo movement. Okay and that was yeah. It revolves around the breakout series. Bridgeton cam are you familiar with this show. And so i've heard about this show. But i have not watched it so i am not enough to comment on it anyway. All right so. This is actually become as i understand the most watched series on netflix ex and in researching the segment. I hadn't seen it either I put on the first episode. My my my wife. And i spent her saturday night. Watching some bridgeton So i could kind of get up to speed and you know the the show cam. It's based on a julia quinn series of bestselling novels set in nineteenth century britain. The show focuses on bridgeton family. They're kind of an aristocratic london family. They've got like eight kids so there's sort of four sons and four daughters and But one of the cool things about this show is that it's set in a racially integrated region sierra for which certainly you know has kind of define show is markedly different than your your typical period piece alright. So that that's our context king about this into the point. Well the other thing that's really define the show cam has been. It's really steamy sex scenes and more specifically the choreography around them. So the show hired lizzie talbot. And she's what's called an intimacy coordinator cam. And i gotta tell ya. I had never heard such job..

You know, what you've read a small angry planet and then if you read or damn just one thing after another there's a bunch of sort of Science Fiction that our system light. Okay. And is this like fifties era like Bradbury Heinlein or is this modern now? Yeah, I'm familiar with us. Yeah, there's just there's a whole bunch of books that are that I think and this isn't fair. It's not fair for me to talk about Julia Quinn who wrote The Bridge Church in serious because have I read a novel written a novel I have not but they took the written they're they're lightly written. You know, they're they feel like Breezy and yeah, they're pretty Breezy and their science fiction like that and there's romance like that and there's Mysteries like that and and that in Bridget is actually quite fun. It's historical but it's not historically accurate like there's better. There's different kinds of historical romances, and yep. Historical fiction but what all I know about Bridget and my wife and my daughter watch it. All I know is every time I walk by the T set somebody's fucking that's all I know. It's a romance number. You said it's a sex novel. It's not even real. It's it's safe.

Well, I don't necessarily need to know about it here about it and but you know, whatever and I hope that it happens at College. That's what I thought. I tell them I was like if you smoke out of the house out of the house, that's all I care about no idea, you know, actually I have a really well. My son is a page where he still doesn't, you know engaging with him on anything about other than Yu-Gi-Oh is is is a bit of an effort but my my daughter bless them they are we we actually have a good relationship. We talk about a lot of that stuff and and once in a blue moon, we will talk about the sexual things, but you know sure I'm staying dad. I still suck. Embarrassed about it right and getting embarrassed about it doesn't mean you're unwilling to talk about it. It just means you're slightly embarrassed about it. And you consider power through it if she needs someone to talk to about some bullshit. You're like not a week about it. I'm just going to be over here blushing a little bit then going your your opiate adult anyway, so well, well the fun part about it is last last note is that I say you did not realize I had a life before you came along right? And that's what I always tell them. She doesn't want to hear it either. Yeah. Exactly. I didn't know that she'll say they'll say she's yes, here's my scoop. Will we discuss Batman?.

"I am going to go ahead and say yes, the actor. First of all, I just saw the promotional pictures and I was like, yes, all of the things and let's be honest. Chandra Rhymes knows how to cast men who maybe haven't I mean, obviously, Patrick Dempsey was packed. Dempsey but who maybe haven't gotten that shine yet And then she sort of puts them in this light and elevates them into this level of sexiness that I particularly love. She said it with how to get away with murder and with scandal And now with Bridget 10, and so, yes, Miss Shonda Rhimes keep casting these boys and what's crazy is now he is one of the names that is in serious contention. For the next James Bond. And it's just goes to show you the global impact of Netflix because now he is a global name, and it was just from this one television show. Where is another film actors would have to do several movies over and over again. You look at an actor like John David Washington comes from, You know, the family of Denzel Washington. And this young British actor with just this one casting can just catapult to a different level and maybe get cast into you know James Bond and be on the level with John David Washington has been working for over a decade. Well, you know, Another thing that makes birdie 10 different than other costume dramas is that there isn't a sort of pride and prejudiced style Slow burn, where it's all about pent up desire and and restraint. You know, it's that the pinky fingers brushing the kids to each other, the romance and the sex All happened, and then they happen some or on the show is is pretty It's a pretty steamy Caroline. Why do you think Rhymes chose to break that convention? Well. These are adapted from Julia Quinn's Regency Romance novels, which obviously have roots and the Austin sort of trip tradition but are really their own animal. The romance novel of it all, Really? Makes it so that yeah, the sex is pretty front and center, and I was pretty excited to see that we've obviously If you've watched scandal, Grey's Anatomy, Sex is a part of it, but it is under broadcast network constructions. So in the Netflix show, which is created by scandal producer Chris Van Dusen. They could be more explicit about it. They can be More in your face a little bit, and I will confess to even as I was expecting sex to be a part of the show because it's on Netflix, and they have the ability to do that. I was surprised by how explicit it was. I had thought maybe this would be something. I've walked with my parents at some point, and I don't think that will be happening ever. They can watch it on their own. That's fine. What was surprising to me? Okay, Tweet. I love Bridget in so much as a long time romance novel fan. Romance books are already a huge share of the publishing market. Not surprised. It was so successful on TV. We're talking two varieties. Caroline, Frankie, Jacqueline Coley of Rotten Tomatoes and John Horn from KPCC. Well, John, we're talking about TV here in the Emmy Awards happened back in September. They were part remote part in person. As we look towards the Golden Globes and the Oscars. Will those awards ceremonies follow a similar model? Your guess is this good? It's mine. I mean, I think it's gonna be a real interesting question. The Oscars have been pushed back to the end of April. The nominations are middle of March, so everything's been pushed back a while and something we kind of touched on but didn't say explicitly. The Oscars changed their rules for eligibility. You used to have to premiere in a movie theater or to film festival to be eligible, and the academy said Given the pandemic, we're gonna change the rules so that You can now premiere on the streaming service. You could do it some other things to qualify. So what That means is that the kinds of films that are in contention now outside of the ceremony is radically different. I mean, we touched on this a little bit. But if you start looking at the movies that I think a lot of people think, are contenders for best picture. It's one night in Miami, which is an Amazon film trial. The Chicago seven, which the Netflix film It was originally going to be released by Paramount and Netflix bought it. Ma Rainey's Black bottom Netflix film, So That kinds of movies that are really rising to the top are almost all streaming films and then how they're gonna do the ceremony. I don't know. I mean, listen, I've never liked the red carpet. I don't like the way it objectifies women and fashion above creative content. So if they weren't able to pull it off without that, that would be great. But you know the Grammys. We're going to try some sort of virtual show where they're going to be performances in and around Los Angeles. And even with that accommodation for the pandemic, they realized they couldn't pull that off. So they post on their show. I don't know how the Oscars gonna pull it off. I thought the Emmys did well enough given what they had, But obviously the ratings are gonna be way down and they've been trending down anyway. And though the whole pageantry which a lot of people like, not me of celebrities, you know, wearing fancy clothes is certainly going to be lost. Well, Disney Plus have recently released one division. This is a new TV syriza that follows Marvel's superheroes, Rwanda maximum and vision, and.

She accidentally posted it or somebody doctor, but I'm shaking. I don't know what to do. My mom deserves to go to jail. That's that's on real. Okay.

"Gonna be a good one today could well, I like to think that you know, there's just not gets every Every Monday and who knows where they'll take us? Actually, But as long as we're talking about some Sunday sexual negative, that's right, a little sexual negative. Speaking of Kiera Knightley last March, he announced That she was done, you know, showing her, but her boobs and her bush camera basically turn even think of when she's done it lately. Oh, my gosh, Julia. She's been, she said. Well, now, she just said She's ill be also, she was worried that they would end up important states. But now she's elaborating explaining On a Chanel podcast. Chanel's getting into the bad guest business, Clay? No, she will not be filming any nude scenes or sex scenes. If the director is a man She said. It's partly vanity. And also it's the male gaze. I feel very uncomfortable now trying to portray the male gaze. She understands some directors need somebody look hot. And then there are those horrible sex scenes were your agree step and everybody's grunting, and she just said Uh, basically should work you know with women, and in the past, she's performed sex scenes in movies like silk. The Duchess collapsed last year, she told Vulture. That her favorite to shoot Frevert Texting had been the one in Atonement where she's wearing the stunning green dress. Yes. Getting it against the bookshelf By James McAvoy. It was directed by a man and she was comfortable with that because it was choreographed within an inch of her life. And it's interesting what she says about the male gaze because when Julia Quinn was on with Tamarind Hall this morning The author of the Bridget In book Theories. I was going to say talking about Bridge your test on day. You know, Tamerlan was just going. You know these scenes, they're just so hot and blah, blah, blah. I'm kind of going on, and Julia Quinn said, Well, you know, The people that We're writing this and also directing that we had women and we see the sexual everything through the female gaze, and that's what women want, How we perceive things. I want to see things so tow us. It feels hot and different because it's so very rarely right From a woman's perspective. I thought that was an interesting and I totally believe it, though. Of course, she would have women. Yeah, I love that and then and even in just the way some of the things were staged. Yes, there's love that said That's because it's coming from the female gaze in so long for so long, everything is always Directed. So much of this is written, even if it's being re written from a book that a woman wrote Interesting. That's a good interview that Julia Quinn on Cameron. I have it say I'm not watching Same. Don't watch it tonight. Watch it because it was so good so anyway, and she said she doesn't have an absolute ban. But she does with guys is not over and do it again. All right, Okay. Well, I can't even imagine how hard that would be in the first place Comfortable would be but It's all probably choreograph some of that. Yeah. Ben Affleck. Oh, my word is going on with Ben. Okay, First of all, for a guy who says he doesn't like any attention and doesn't like the spotlight. He sure gets a lot of mail gets a lot of mail, and he also knows that there's paparazzi outside of his place and For many of his things where he's picking up something outside of ourselves. He makes Who are three trips instead of one to make sure that the paparazzi get their photo. So maybe he's just having a good day, and the Paps happened to be there, but he does not like it when we talk about him. And yet his people have given not one but two source stories about his break up with Annan, Armas one d E and 12 people. Wow. It's so strange to me. Well, what is he saying? Is he she break his heart because maybe that he's trying to get her back. Well, here's the thing. If you read the East story closely, they state that their source spoke to them. On Tuesday, January 19th and last Wednesday Plus both Page six and ease say their stories are exclusive so they wouldn't be able to do that. Have been a flex team was giving the same damn quote to both outlets. They're getting too. Your first. That's a story and Ben's PR team words, You know, they weren't things a little differently to get mileage. I mean, we're getting a lot of updates. On a guy. His relationship status for someone who hates attention and said he hates attention. So it's strange to me, but here's what They started having problems in the fall. Okay, Um they took time apart. But they got back together. Then they spent December apart. And, um, they still talk. They talk regularly and Catholic is gonna be leaving l a for the East Coast when he hands heads to Boston. Shoot the George Clooney directed Amazon film The tender bar. Yeah, You're right about this. I don't know. Have any Ieave? No idea what it's about. But I hope George Clooney gets a successful movie. At some point. He is not directed anything That's been successful. That's right. I have high hopes for him because Ben Affleck has won a director. Yeah. Academy Award for Argo. I mean, it would be nice. Really want turns Queenie to get well, George pursued band to be in this adaptation on a Pulitzer Prize winner, Guillermo Angers 2000 and five memoir. I don't even know what that is. I don't know either. Well, let's just hope it's better than some of the other. Did anyone watch the The space One where he was missing sky are no. Johnny watched it. He sent me a note. What did he say? He said this is a movie. Not for you and Julia because we don't like to leave our galaxy way are firmly planted on earth. Laurie and I just even a free trip in space X in 20 years. I thought we don't take it. We're not leaving. There's we've got. We've got boundaries. Yeah, No, I'm sure Ben got dumped. He's dead. That's what I'm saying. That's right. There's all these stories out there. Yes, but he's the dump. Yeah. It's interesting that he book ended his break of announcement with two different podcast because then he was on with Sasha Baron Cohen podcast too. Yeah, And then last week, people stay in their own lane, right? The Hollywood reporter. So kinda interesting and need nothing really to promote..

That he was asked to watch Bridget Tune by his wife, and he's like, No, I'm not really gonna like And then the next slide and against the story was him loving Bridger. Really? That's all I've heard. Okay, then maybe I need to stick with it. This is a Shonda land production. Oh, Shot, you know, because she's got that huge deal with Netflix right now, So there's a lot of content probably going to be coming from her. She produced it. It's a serious created by Chris Van Dusen, and it's based on the novels by Julia Quinn and it's in London's High society in the 18 hundreds when debutantes are presented at court. You know they're trying to find matches for marriage with daughters and sons and There's just a lot going on for me and I see I fell asleep trying to watch the third episode a couple of times. I just I have to get through that one. You know, you know what it reminds me A little bit of is in some ways is like game of Thrones like so many families or somebody characters and just It's a lot, but I think people really are loving it. It's mostly about this, um, this young woman named Daphne. She's the most promising debutant. If you will. She comes up with a plan to pretend that she's with her brother, one of her brothers friends. He's not for it. They're trying to fool everyone into thinking that they are in love.

So where, uh, this source material isn't modern. Or was it written way back when when this was a thing, because that's what question and I said this on the show last week, you know, I Whenever you have this old timey stuff that wasn't written by a Charlotte Bronte or a Jane Austen, right? I'm not interested, Um e current during the time. It's courage current. It's not like old Material. Well, New material looks kind of look like, Have a Danielle Steel?
