Release Date: 02/24/2024
The Legendary Ladies Podcast
It's our second spooky season selection - Sweetpea on Starz! (Sorry, just had to get our alliterations in.) Our newest spooky season pick is a PilotPod covering the new Starz series Sweetpea, staring Ella Purnell. Amy and Kat are...lukewarm about this series, which is surprising, since on its head, the premise is excellent. The hosts chat about the fact that the hook that brought us in during the first 10 minutes failed to maintain the hype, whether or not the lack of good supporting characters undermined the 'ghost' theme they were going for (we get it, there was a purpose..it just didn't...
info_outline Is M Night Shyamalan’s Trap a Horror, Thriller, or Neither?The Legendary Ladies Podcast
When is a movie so not great that it’s…not actually bad? Can we be entertained in a horror film that doesn’t actually involve…um, horror? Does an over 100-minute movie that reveals the main twist 10 minutes in still have the power to keep us in our seats? The answer with M. Night Shamalan’s “TRAP” is, somehow, yes. Come on this journey with us on this week’s Spooky Season pick, as we recognize that nothing surprised us, the genre was unclear, and the writing felt like AI wrote the script --- and yet, we still stuck around. It’s a bit of a wild episode as we try to figure out...
info_outline Pilot Pod: Does Penguin Live Up to the Buzz?The Legendary Ladies Podcast
Welcome to the Gotham mob! The Legendary Ladies tackle the pilot for HBO's new series The Penguin, which is spun off the Robert Pattinson/Matt Reeves movie The Batman. But don't worry, you don't really even need to have seen that movie to dive into this mob series that just happens to be set in Gotham. The ladies discuss the show's pacing (slow), the show's characters, the Colin Farrell prosthetics (why?), the Sopranos inspiration, and more. Will we be back for the next episode? What did you think?

info_outline Wynonna Earp Vengeance: Is It a Reunion or Reboot?The Legendary Ladies Podcast
Earpers gather ‘round! We’re here to review the Wynonna Earp movie - Wynonna Earp: Vengeance, and the fun part? We have all level of fans in our hosts! While Morgan has seen the entire series (some of it, more than once), and Kat has seen a bit of the series, Amy has only seen the pilot (although she has a level of Earp-Adjacent Osmosis from instagram and the best fans ever). It makes for an interesting discussion - is the Earp movie new viewer friendly? And if it is, is it enough to make a new fan (or even returning fans) come back for more? Find out on this week’s episode! Check out...
info_outline Pilot Pod: Agatha All Along - Is It Really Marvel's Gayest Show?The Legendary Ladies Podcast
Down down down down down the witches road! Amy and Kat have the song stuck in their head as they discuss Agatha All Along….and they really don’t mind. On this week’s The Legendary Ladies Podcast, the hosts watch the first two episodes of Agatha All Along, and since Amy hasn’t seen Wandavision (SHAME), dive into whether or not the show is new user friendly. They also chat about the clear straight-to-series vibe of the show, how long is fair to wait for a show to “hook” you, and where they think the series goes from here. Will the hosts keep watching? Find out in this new episode!...
info_outline Pilot Pod: Why is Emily in Paris So Easy to Watch?The Legendary Ladies Podcast
Hashtag ! Amy and Morgan are absolutely thrilled to finally have the chance to watch the first episode of the hit television show “Emily in Paris.” On the heels of the season 4 release of the popular Netflix show, the hosts take this PilotPod to dive into what makes Emily in Paris so…entertaining and watchable, despite its general predictability and basic plot. Is it the fashion? The set (it is PARIS after all)? The good-looking roommate? Or, as the hosts discuss, is there just something refreshing and delightful about a half-hour show that is light, easy to follow, and relaxing? All...
info_outline Pilot Pod: Should You Binge Interview With The Vampire on Netflix?The Legendary Ladies Podcast
It's not "A" vampire - it's "THE" vampire. Specifically, an interview with. On this episode of The Legendary Ladies Podcast, the Legendary Ladies settle in to watch the pilot of An Interview With the Vampire, hitting Netflix this week. They find the show appealing to all three hosts - but for different reasons - and discuss the setting, time jump, and world building as it pertains to a new audience with no knowledge of the IP. Amy, Kat, and Morgan also find discussing whether or not they can find characters intriguing and worth watching....even if they don't actually *like* any of them. ...
info_outline Is Batman Caped Crusader As Good As Critics Are Saying?The Legendary Ladies Podcast
Does the new animated Batman fly high or fall short? The Legendary Ladies discuss the new animated Batman series on Amazon Prime video: Batman: Caped Crusader. Despite involving some of the same creators as Batman the Animated Series, the Legendary Ladies struggled to connect with this new version of Batman. They discuss the slow pacing, the flat characterization and their surprise they didn’t like this well-reviewed series very much. Have a different perspective?

info_outline My Lady Jane Review: Horse Girlies UniteThe Legendary Ladies Podcast
Horse girlies, history girlies, and booktok girlies - this one is for you. On this week's The Legendary Ladies Podcast duo episode, Amy and Morgan are over the moon to discuss the [entire] Amazon Prime Video Series "My Lady Jane", which it turns out, was actually written exclusively for the hosts. Not really, but you get the picture. The hosts rave over the fun nature of alter-history (and what they got right vs what they artfully changed), chat about the steamy chemistry between the two leads, and make predictions about season 2. They also find themselves reminiscing about their old stomping...
info_outlineIt's the episode you've been waiting for! The Legendary Ladies are here with their review of the first episode of Netflix's new Avatar: The Last Airbender series. Each host has seen the full run of the animated series, but each their own connection to the source material. Among a host of other topics, they discuss the changes at the start of the episode and the introduction of the Air Nomads, what they feel about the choices made by the creators regarding Aang's character, and whether or not changes in the plot actually affected the flow of the story. But as they discuss the series, the hosts come to recognize that they may be physically incapable of viewing the series objectively. With the animated series being, to many viewers (and our hosts), quite near perfect, they wonder - what can *this* series do to be more than just..."fine"?
