Happy Pi Day! One of my co-workers made and brought in three separate pies, apple and banana cream and key lime. (and if you don’t know about this holiday, it is because today is March 14, or “3/14” or “3.14” as in “Pi”)
Continue readingI am so excited that this movie is on Netflix! I was all set for it to be streaming on some obscure platform and I’d have to encourage you all to try to track it down. And instead, it’s right there! On Netflix!
Continue readingFinal post! Views have slowed down rapidly, but the nice thing with a streaming series is, I can just have these posts available and wait for more people to finish the series and then come check in. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingLast character post! I have a lot to say about these two, because it feels like there are a lot of interpretations of them, and the series never really landed on one or the other.
(oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
I’m combining these two, because their storyline was so interwoven in this season. Plus, interest in the MiH posts is dwindling so I want to get them over with. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingHa, Karan/Arjun! Anyway, this is the character discussion post for the second lead, Arjun. I find him an interesting character, but also a lot less opaque than Tara/Sobhita. So, a lot less to discuss. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingFun fun! I don’t think I’ve done this since Jab Harry Met Sejal maybe? It’s a combination of the characters being written in such a way that there is a lot to talk about, and there being enough people interested for us to have a real conversation.

Well, that took me 48 hours to finish! A sign of a very good show, considering I had to go to work in the middle of that. And sleep. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingFinally, some happy couples! Of course, they are the ones who mostly avoid the whole wedding insanity. Which is why we only seem to see bad people in this show, the ones who buy into the need for the expensive showy wedding. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingI have been in twitter lockdown for the past month or so as a little mental health treat to myself, so I missed this and my friend had to send me the link and shame me for being a bad fan. But whatever, I was out there not being on twitter and enjoying sunshine and happiness and people!
Continue readingWell, this is a fascinating episode! In some ways it feels too simple, in others too complicated. But the way the story brings out surprising contrasting emotions in Arjun and Sobhita, that surprised me. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingThis is a definite “it all falls down” kind of episode. After the holding pattern of the last episode, everything happens all of a sudden. And because of that, the wedding story gets a bit short shrift. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingThis was kind of a sad episode! I want more happy ones, like the Sikhs in the second episode. Or even the Deepti episode, that was happy in the end. But the last two, just SAD! (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingBlech, that voice over has GOT to go!!!!! There’s a great moment in this episode, very powerful, which is immediately undercut by the stupid stupid voice over. This might have been my favorite episode of the series so far, except the voice over just destroys it. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingThis is a TV show and I’m reviewing it episode by episode, and I wanted one central place for you to see the whole list. Here it is!
Continue readingI am just speeding through this show! I think this is the weakest episode in terms of the wedding plot, but the strongest so far in terms of the personal plots. I guess that is the balance. (full index of Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingI put up a review of episode 1 already, I’m going this show episode by episode because it breaks down tidily into separate stories unlike Humsafar or Sacred Games. This also makes it way WAY easier for me to review, since I can do short little reviews episode by episode instead of trying to binge the whole thing and then review the whole thing. (full index of Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingHappy Monday! I survived the time change! Barely. I didn’t know it was happening, but luckily I am one of those young people who use their phone as a watch, and my phone updated itself. Without me knowing about it
Continue readingWhat a fun show! And part of the fun is that each episode is it’s own distinct storyline, which means I can do fun little mini-reviews of each episode instead of trying to kill myself watching the whole season and doing one review real quick. (full index of Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingFirst, very important, you should all go over and look at this post. I put a lot of work into it, and it is super good and super fun, especially the “lust” section. Okay, moving on, let’s look at some Indian songs to represent the sin of Greed!
Continue readingHappy Sunday! And let me remind you of one of the all time greatest Hindi films, and definitely the best exploration of how “true love” is bad and selfish.
Continue readingI almost considered doing a post for Luke Perry. But then, he was never really “mine”. I am about ten years to young for his peak years, but I still really really love him from one role, Buffy The Vampire Slayer (the movie). So I won’t do a full tribute post for him, but I will do a quick silly rewrite of my favorite Luke Perry movie for him.
Continue readingI thought I didn’t have a lot to say about these, but now all three are out, and I know a lot of you have watched them, I thought I might as well put up a space for us to talk about them. And then I turned out to have A LOT to say after all!
Continue readingYaaaay, a good movie! I love when I can review a good movie instead of complaining about a bad one. This isn’t, like “brilliant perfect best ever” movie. But it is very well-made and generally solid. If you like kind of mystery thriller movies. Oh, and AVOID SPOILERS. Don’t read this review if you have any chance of watching this movie, read this review instead.
Continue readingGood morning! Today is the day Mr. Dog Albie does NOT have an accident inside the house. I have decided! Poor thing is on antibiotics that makes water go right through him, but with my system of taking him out as soon as I wake up and then every 4 hours until we go to sleep, I think we can make it through.
