Deep Water, Standing Up, and grab bag

We discuss Deep Water _and _Standing Up, two works that both involve finding the humor in less-than-ideal circumstances (whether intentionally or not). 04:21 Deep Water, streaming on Hulu, is not an especially good film, but it is a good time. 23:55 Standing Up, streaming on Netflix, is a highly capable ensemble dramedy that makes fully realized characters out of what could have been basic tropes. 39:57 Plus, grab bag! We briefly touch on other things we’re watching: Fresh, Good Girls, This Way Up, Billions, Benedetta, and Bridgerton s2. ... Follow us on Twitter and Instagram.
