Anisa: We binge-watched the Netflix reality series Indian Matchmaking! Along with what seems like the rest of the world, and especially South Asians. We also caught the follow-up interviews with some of the cast that were released six days ago. Let’s just say...we have a lot of feelings. Saya: I can’t believe I watched the... Continue Reading →
I haven’t caught much K-drama lately, but the nostalgia bug bit me and I found myself nomming through a handful of late 90s/early 2000s romcoms. I mentioned it to my friends, and was surprised to see how deep the love ran, so Paroma and I sat down to gab a little about some good ones.... Continue Reading →
Backstreet Rookie In many ways, I think the less time spent talking about SBS's Backstreet Rookie, the better, but unfortunately, we need to talk about it because it has Problems. Big ones. And I don't just mean the questionable casting, because—against all common sense and public conversation—this is the show that went one better and... Continue Reading →
This month, we talk about The King a LOT, and check out a whole bunch of new dramas - some of them are great, some not so much, but hey, there's always lots to talk about! What have you been watching? Listen to the episode here: TIMESTAMPS: 00:02:31 The King 00:29:16 Once Again 00:34:53 Unfamiliar... Continue Reading →
Okay friends! After a few rounds of housewarming, we reckon it's time for a new adventure. How do you all feel about something a little different? And by "different", I mean BRUTAL. But also loving. After all, we don't want to spill too much blood on our nice new floors. The idea is pretty simple.... Continue Reading →
There's still so much left to unpack in this show, but since we didn't want to kill our readers, we took a snack break and now we're back to dissect its themes and take a closer look at a few key scenes/plotlines that we really wanted to nom over. It turned out to be a... Continue Reading →
Saya: I've been trying to persuade my other drama-bestie missvictrix, whom you may know from her incisive and lolarious writing on Dramabeans, to join us on the podcast for AGES, but she's feeling mic-shy, so we're here to bring you the next best thing! As we're trying something new, tell us how you like it... Continue Reading →
How is everyone doing? We hope you're safe and well wherever you are and whatever you're doing. I've found there are definite upsides to forced hermitage—I've talked to people I haven't talked to for a long time, I've slept more (too much?), and...I maaaayyyy be watching a tiny bit more drama (come on, you know...

I don't know about you guys, but I've been waiting a while for a proper Long Yak! We finally manage to reconvene (for the first time since the Year-end Yak!), and catch up on all the stuff that had gone down in our accidental hiatus. But that's nothing to the way literally the entire world... Continue Reading →
New decade, new dramas. Isn't it crazy that it's already 2020? Still, the passage of time means the arrival of new dramas, and here's to hoping for a year well-spent. Remember: if you're not feeling it, it's okay to drop it! (Or maybe I'm the only one who needs that reminder, haha.) It's a quiet... Continue Reading →
