The Recap Episode

Jersey Shore S3 (2011)

We’re back in Seaside Heights for the third season of MTV’s “Jersey Shore,” this time with added relationship struggles. How did I like this season of Ronnie and Sammi fighting? What did I think of the transformation of Vinny into our typical douchebag? What are my thoughts on Jenni and Roger? You’ll have to listen to find out! Follow the pod on social media!

Wife, Mom, Bounty Hunter (2007)

Which is harder: chasing fugitives or raising a teenage daughter? This week I’m covering WeTV’s “Wife, Mom, Bounty Hunter,” a documentary-style reality tv show that follows Sandra Scott, who is a bounty hunter, a mom, and a wife. I discuss how the show displays the juxtaposition of Sandra’s home life and work life, how Sandra herself surprised me with her uncommon sense of justice, and what the show itself wants to say about this working woman.

Secrets and Wives (2015)

This episode is all about “The Real Housewives of Long Island.” Well, no, that’s not right. The show is actually called “Secrets and Wives,” a 1-season Bravo show that could have been a Housewives entry if it could just figure out how to maintain an interesting conflict that didn’t center around how frustrating the men in this show are.

The Simple Life S1 (2003-2004)

What do you get when you take two LA glam girls and send them to a farm in the middle of nowhere to live and work for 30 days? If you record it and ship it out as a tv program, you get one of the most iconic early ‘celebreality’ shows, “The Simple Life.” Tune in for my analysis of what this show tells us about Paris and Nicole’s lack of awareness of consequences and their struggles adapting to a completely new, simpler, culture compared to their own.

How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria? (2006)

The hills are alive with the Sound of Music, and the Recap Episode is covering the journey of musical theater hopefuls as they compete for public favor to be Maria. Learn about Andrew Lloyd Webber’s first reality talent search show that would open the doors for others. I talk about how Webber couldn’t let his judges do their job, and at the end, my conspiracy that the show may have found ways to influence the live vote to Webber’s benefit.
