Bridget Behind Bars!new
Desperate to propel a plot when chemistry doesn't work, this sequel puts its heroine through the wringer. Female viewers may feel similarly abused.

Curse the Electoral Collegenew
With the enormous sums of money raised and spent, the irrelevance of the popular vote, and the choice, once again this time, between two wealthy white male sons of privilege, in a country where that only describes a tiny fraction of the population, it's pretty damned depressing.
