'Call The Midwife' season 12 episode 3 recap: stronger than before
This week’s episode of Call The Midwife allows Sister Veronica to use her personality quirks for the greater good. At the same time, Trixie discovers one skill that will likely elude her.

Let’s discuss what happens with a warning that rape and domestic violence will be discussed which will be triggering to some readers and viewers. -
'Sanditon' Season 3 Episode 2 Recap: ain't nothin but a heartache
Well, reader, last week dropped us off in a decidedly less idyllic version of Sanditon than we’ve visited in the past, culminating with some absolutely atrocious garbage from the unfortunately returned Wannabe Byron. How will our friends deal with this latest nonsense? Charlotte, who is after all very ride or die for Georgiana, has naturally decided to stay on in Sanditon until the legal issues are resolved. Boring Ralph, however, has some boring farm stuff to get back to, so his only onscreen presence is an admittedly sweet letter. Bad idea, pal: with you gone, Charlotte has a lot more time to exchange yearning glances with Mystery Dad! -
'Call The Midwife' season 12 episode 2 recap: admission is the first step
This week on Call The Midwife, Lucille is still struggling with her mental health, and continues to have a hard time balancing her personal turmoil with caring for the residents of Poplar. Meanwhile, an expectant mother’s additional diagnosis challenges Dr. Turner and the midwives' ability to care for her. Let’s discuss what happens, but first a note of caution: this episode discusses suicidal ideation. -
'Sanditon' Season 3 Episode 1 Recap: irreplaceable
Well, friends, we’re back. Last season, all of our beloved pals were once again jilted and disrespected by horrible men, so at this point I’m honestly kind of hoping Georgiana and Charlotte just run away together to be rich and fabulous in peace. However, I suspect my wish is not about to be granted, because even though the season does start with Charlotte making her way downtown (riding fast, faces pass, and she’s Sanditon bound), she’s not alone in the carriage. No, sitting across from her is Boring Ralph, her farmer fiance who we barely met at the very tail end of last season’s finale. I’m gonna be real with you, reader: he seems fine. I’m probably being unfair. But guess what: I don't care! -
