Bonus 450: Little Mermaid and Succession
Added 2023-05-31 23:59:01 +0000 UTC
We're talking about The Little Mermaid and the Succession finale (Spoilers!!) — two events that crashed down on pop culture this past weekend. Did you watch them? What do you think?
WAIT DOM IS IN PRINCESS & THE FROG?!? 😮

Lol! My opinion of her actually comes from watching her on watch what happens live when she was promoting Godzilla or whatever the F that was. She came off as such an actory, pretentious snot. I was like “ma’am. You’re in Godzilla”.

Here for the first time because of Succession. Big fan of your Bravo coverage. I too was reflecting on the Mad Men finale and how lame that was. Happy to hear I wasn't the only one. Succession wrapped up much better and I also agree this season wasn't that engaging without Logan. Satisfied how this show ended. Thanks for covering it!

How dare you Ronnie! Laura Linney is a goddess and if you’ve seen her on WWHL she is totally down to earth. She started out in theater. Theater actors are always act a tad bit superior but I demand receipts for interviews of her being insufferable! NerveS! I still love you but must ask you to reconsider your opinion on Laura.

Love it when I think I've run out of shows to listen to, and I remember the bonus episodes!

Love the Succession talk! Can't believe they took Les Poisson out of Little Mermaid, quelle horror

Lin Manuel has done The Heights, Hamilton, Moana, Mary Poppins, Little Mermaid, Encanto in the relatively short time we’ve been aware of him -too much to soon? Is that why seems repetitive?

Whoa! That was Gerri's drink??? That adds a lot to that weird smile.

Yes, I agree. My comments were more to do with the Internet choosing sides and actually rooting for anybody to win on the show when they’re all terrible. I wanted them all to lose. -R

We're meant (encouraged!) to hate Kendall, Shiv and Roman. They are terrible people as a result of physical and emotional abuse from their father. None of them had principles. You might recal Shiv telling Tom, just after exchanging wedding vows, that she wanted to have an open marriage. You can see him break into pieces in that moment. They're all nightmares but it was a fantastic, darkly funny, and mostly deeply dramatic show. Just wanted to weigh in because you're sounding like you hate these people as though you're not supposed to hate them. It's been such a week of opinions and I am now done. Love you guys :) (Oh, in the bar at the end Roman ordered a martini - Gerri's drink. In a VERY creepy way, she was who he loved.)

Some old but still (to me) hot goss on everyone’s favorite actor, Jeremy Strong - I guess after Heath Ledger died, he moved into Michelle Williams’ basement and helped raise her daughter for years.

I read that they did a take where Kendall tries to jump into the river but the guard stops him from “un-aliving” himself, but Jesse thought that was over the top so they went with K quietly staring at the water.

Fun fact: the woman who played Sally-Ann, Caroline's version of Kerry, is actually Brian Cox's wife!

Agree! I loved hearing what the head writer and the director of several key eps had to say. And everyone but J Strong. LOL

Did not enjoy all the extra prince scenes and the's prince's song was terrible (also did not think he was very cute) but otherwise loved the movie!

The cut Les Poissons?????? What???? And you are so correct. Everyone settle down. It’s a movie.

Re upcoming on HBO (Max🙄), Righteous Gemstones is coming back and the second season of Somebody Somewhere was really cute.

FWIW- the writer referred to this whole series as a detour for Roman, and that him drinking a martini symbolized him going back to Gerri. I don’t know.

(Jesse Armstrong is the writer of the series)

If you watch the Succession interviews w Jesse Armstrong at the end of each show, the point is that these kids were totally inept and incapable of handling the job, and that the series is a tragedy. I love that Tom won the CEO position, as much as I can love anything in this painful show. Agree, there’s no one happy. Shiv betrayed/ let down by every man in her life.

Is the new season of RHONY trailer on deck for a bonus or main feed episode?!? It looks GREAT

Ronnie, I agree with you about Prince Eric’s song. WTH. He was tone deaf. He also looked 40. Not that there is anything wrong with that - unless you are trying to date a teenage mermaid…
