This week we bid adieu to a delightful final season of Sanditon. Matches are made, weddings are attended and the town is left significantly better than where it began. Overall an excellent season. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This we is the penultimate episode of Sanditon and it seems like the darkest hour before dawn has arrived. Augusta’s reputation, Charlotte’s heart and Mary’s life all hang in the balance. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we are on to the second half of Sanditon S3. It seems like the worst may be behind us and yet there are still many hearts that need mending and plenty of heart to hearts to be had. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week is an emotional rollercoaster on Sanditon S3 episode 3. We scream at our televisions several times, both with anger and delight. Old friends show their support and new friends show their worth and of course the questions of who’s hearts will connect are forever in the air. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we cover episode 2 and are still utterly delighted by this season of Sanditon.

This week we cover episode one of the third and final season of Sanditon. We once again travel to the seaside town of Sanditon and it seems like love is in the air. We predict that everyone will fall in love this season and just wonder with who, but there are still villainous men afoot. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we watched a couple of episodes of Hotel Room’s spiritual successor, Room 104. We chose 2 random episodes, “Swipe Right” from season two and “Crossroads” from season three. The comparison to Hotel Room was illuminating and we really enjoyed the performances in both episodes. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we cover David Lynch’s Hotel Room, a hard to find short lived show from 1992. It was on HBO but only 3 episodes were ever made. It’s interesting and strange and may not have lived up to it’s potential but it had a great cast and some interesting premises. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we have another re-release episode, Bridget Jones’s Diary. A first time viewing for both of us we give you our first impressions of the movie.

This week we cover one of Christian’s childhood favorites, The Road to El Dorado by Dreamworks animation. This short and sweet movie is full of adventure and cute animal companions and short on menace. We enjoyed the novelty of watching conmen be the heroes of a children’s movie. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we are covering the 2013 movie Austenland. A first for both of us, we really enjoyed the fabulous cast that helped propel the movie into a very funny romantic comedy. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we cover a new release, The Menu. It has connections to David Lynch and is relevant to one of our favorite interests….food. We fully intended to cover it all in this episode but we had too much to say so this will be a two parter. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we do something just for fun and cover the 1988 movie Willow. It’s got action and adventure, comedy and high stakes and is just so very ‘80s. We also round out or discussion with a little chat about the new series. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we try something different and cover a game series inspired by Twin Peaks. The Cube Escape/Rusty Lake series have been releasing games, since 2015, in the point and click, surrealist, adventure realm. We had a lot of fun playing the games and do our best to share our thoughts on them with you. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we finish up with Fanny, Portsmouth, the Bertram’s and Mansfield Park, ‘99. Sir Thomas tries to teach Fanny a lesson but he is the one who has his eyes opened. Our opinions change several times and in the end we celebrate this adaptation! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support

This week we start a on new Mansfield Park, the 1999 Miramax adaptation. This adaptation merges Mansfield Park with Austen’s juvenilia as well as Jane’s real life. It’s sexy, it’s deep, and it has Harold Pinter. What more could we want in a movie? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mannersandmadness/support
