NAMELESS BEST FRIENDS

What a treat we have for you today! Actor/comedian/ray of sunshine Mackenzie Barmen joins us to discuss the original Bridge Jones movie. Was Renée Zellweger really fat? (NO) Who was hotter, Hugh Grant or Colin Firth? (WE DON'T KNOW!) (Probably Hugh). And how did some of these jokes slide by a mere two decades ago?

Delightful British author, Sophie Cousens, joins us to chat about this movie, Kate Hudson, and a tantalizing taste of British celebs and comedians she knows and has worked with. Her latest book is IS SHE REALLY GOING OUT WITH HIM though Paige began raving about her a couple years back after reading THE GOOD PART. If you can resist reading her entire backlist after listening to her talk, it will be a surprise. She is such fun!

We are joined by the delightfully sunny author Hannah Orenstein. Are there HUGE PLOT PROBLEMS with the plot of The Parent Trap? Yes, of COURSE! Did we love it anyway? What cold hearted monster wouldn't?!

Order Hannah's book Playing With Matches and pre-order her upcoming, Maine Characters!

Tried to group all the commercials into one long break at 27:27 again so you can do one skip. Hopefully it works. If you hate commercials ...

For the theme, 'So...This is Love?"

In this one, the Harbisons think florist code is problematic, Paige gets in a tit-off with her nonexistent child, and everyone recalls warmly the one year they all liked Ashton Kutcher (‘shton’ to his friends, among whom jack counts himself). Oh, and also, don't worry, Adam grabbed his ****.

If this wasn't enough phone sex for you, read Beth's book Secrets of a Shoe Addict!

Wow, what words to even use to describe this...piece. For a hella devout group of people, there's so much ego, so much 'missing the point,' so much car-sitting. The preaching, the sanctimonious monologues, the very very white hip hop flash mob...the CAMERON of it all. Holy god, is all we have to say. We had an amazing time with Jen & Fletch, so the episode is a blast thank GOD.

It's Paige's fault. Entirely. Teen Beach Movie and now this.

Look, if you're looking for a great or beautiful film, this is far from it. But if you want a time portal directly to sitting in front of your heavy, bulky monster of a TV in the year 2000, it's a miracle! Is there magic in it? Yes. Is it magical? No. Worth watching? We did it for you!

Hilarious author Lindsay Hameroff (Till there was You) joins us for what some of us found to be a pleasant holiday diversion. It's no "Round and Round," sure, but it's also not "Letters to Santa." Most importantly, it brings Marc Summers back to our screens, where he shows genuine warmth and charm at a time when we need it most.

Vanessa Hudgens and Vanessa Hudgens star in The Princess Switch! Little to no effort is made to make this in any way plausible but it's still a pleasant movie. The rental house "Kevin" and "Stacy" have is fantastic, but what isn't beautiful in Belgravia, amirite? Besides the castle.

By the way, only one of us thought it was a good idea to leave the rambling intro in. It wasn't Beth.

Mixed feelings on this one. Is "Sugarplum" the actresses single name? Is she human? Why doesn't she understand anything about life? If she's just a character, does she have a human double out here somewhere? Why aren't these questions ever answered???

Wasn't Nancy Meyers working on a new, updasted Private Benjamin? And could they re-release the original with Goldie Hawn in the meantime? That was a great movie.

This is not that movie.

This is the story of a man with Issues that any sensible woman would stay away from. Not one surprise here. But we had fun discussing it!

Beth couldn't make it to this recording so Jack read her notes, which ended up feeling at times like they were reading her diary. Anyway, we have another Lindsay Lohan Christmas offering. Not a great one but here it is.

This is part three of three.

Seven movies in one long weekend is a LOT. Add a sudden breakup for one of your hosts and emergency surgery for a dog and it was just too much. We did the best we could!

This movie was terrible. Yes, of course we all want to think about emergency rooms and car accidents at the holidays, but somehow this movie was lacking that special zing you'd expect with such a theme.

Hallmark hates us. Clearly.
