We discuss horny period drama Bridgerton (2020) and angsty young adult survival series The Wilds (2020). 02:53 Bridgerton, the first big Shondaland x Netflix offering, is the epitome of a guilty pleasure, but its probing of race and relationships leaves much to be desired. 17:28 The Wilds, one of Amazon Prime Video's few Youth Market shows, is both cringe-y and tender in its depiction of teen girls. 26:33 Plus, not one, but TWO culture notes: the first about Ben "Believe in Boston" Affleck and his Dunkin', and the second about TV to look forward to this year maybe??? ...
