Here’s my update on my drama schedule this month. I’m watching “Love Like a Galaxy” but I’ve decided I’ll mimic the way most drama viewers watch shows, and not bother to understand the plot. The impressions I got from this pseudo-historical are that a) all Chinese mothers are the real power behind the throne, b) […]
Bitch Talk: Dramas for Binge Watching this Summer
Recently, my nieces asked me what happened to the paperbacks I’d leave in the beach house for summer reading. They noticed that the books on the shelves haven’t been replaced in the last three summers. Has their Dear Aunt stopped reading? Yikes! They almost caught onto my kdrama addiction. Their aunt has a defunct summer […]
Where are you Nrllee aka Ms. Potterhead?
Hey, @nrllee! This new Hong sisters’ drama “Alchemy of Souls” would be right up your (Diagon) alley. You’re missing out on the fun, and I’m missing your HP encyclopedic input. Try to speed through first six episodes (Is there an enchanting spell like “absorbus kdramaticus” to absorb dramas in one sitting?) and meet me at […]

Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in July 2022?
I can’t take any more. Too many June dramas remain on my watch list so I’m only limiting myself to one new Kdrama this month. 1. Today’s Webtoon Synopsis from soompi: “Today’s Webtoon” is a Korean remake of the popular 2016 Japanese drama “Sleepeeer Hit!” The drama will tell the story of On Ma Eum, […]
Next Drama for the Rewatch Party?
Update: 6/28/2022 from @Growing_Beautifully. Here’s a Truncated List of Shows to Choose From for our next Rewatch Party. Please note, I’ve resurrected some of the ones that we recommended way back when. I also decided to include those that I don’t particularly want to watch to see if they get more than one vote, and […]
Queen’s Platinum Jubilee: Open Thread
I know. I know. My ancestors who fought against the British rule here in the colonies are probably rolling in their graves but hey… Not only am I captivated by all the pomp and pageantry of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, but I must give credit to the woman for what she has achieved in the last […]
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in June 2022?
I must have jinxed myself last month because I didn’t get to watch most of the dramas on my May list. Let’s see if the Kdrama gods will be kinder to me this month. 1. Cleaning Up According to soompi, this is about three women working as office cleaners at a security firm who overheard […]
Happy Friday the 13th!
I know many of us aren’t superstitious. I believe we make our own luck. But if you have any weird coincidences, spooky tales or unexplained mysteries, feel free to share. I’m sure @OldAmericanLady and @Welmaris have a few stories up their sleeves. 🙂

Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in May 2022?
I feel like the proverbial kid in the candy store with all the kdrama and cdrama offerings for this month. On the weekends, I have “My Liberation Notes,” “From Now On, Showtime,” and “2D1N” variety show to watch. On the weekdays, there’s Yang Yang and Zhao Luci’s “Who Rules the World” cdrama on Netflix! They’ve […]

Our many loving and caring thoughts are with you as you get well soon, @GB! I’m signing our BoD card for those who are here (and those without internet). pm3
Easter Blessings!
Easter Sunday’s Gospel. It’s from the book of John 20: 1-9. On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple […]
