We're back for another Hills rewatch episode, and this one takes a wild turn at Brody's birthday party, or as I like to call it "strike one". How producers amped up storylines, what Brody said that genuinely shocked me, and why Spencer swears he never would’ve gotten married if he’d known this one thing. From being drunk on camera to being asked to cry on cue, we’re breaking down the formula that made these shows work… maybe a little too well. And yeah — maybe I took it too far sometimes.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
