Weekend Watch: An Honest Opinion On Robert Pattinson’s Most Unsettling Role & The Reality Show That Will Take Over Your Week

The Spill

Show Notes

This week, we have to talk about the A24 film that’s splitting audiences right down the middle. Robert Pattinson leads, with Merritt Wever, Skyler Gisondo and Phoebe Bridgers (in a debut so transformative you might not clock her) rounding out a stacked cast. A tense, uncomfortable look at the true story behind one of TV’s most notorious shows, and what it says about all of us who watched. Then, the reality juggernaut that’ll claim four nights of your week is back, with a lush new villa, a contestant who ‘barks’ instead of flirting, and former power couples stirring the pot. Plus, an Apple TV psychological thriller starring Liev Schreiber and Stephen Graham, playing so far against type it’s genuinely chilling. Weekly drops all the way to Christmas Day.

Kim Kardashian has an authorised biography coming out, and somehow a book that hasn’t even been released yet is already causing drama within the Kardashian family. Laura and Tina unpack the biggest revelations from the man who spent five years inside Kim’s world, including the passages Kim pushed back on, why Kris Jenner reportedly had a meltdown over what made it into the book, and the sister who took nine months to agree to an interview. And there’s Paris Hilton, who cancelled hers 17 times and apparently reopened an old wound in the process. Then, Charli D’Amelio has finally spoken about the family rift that’s followed her for more than a year. After becoming one of the most famous people on the internet at just 15, Charli opens up about working nonstop, separating herself from the family business and the complicated questions surrounding what happened to the money she earned as a teenager. Laura and Tina unpack what she actually said, what she very deliberately didn’t say, and why the story of a young woman who seemingly got everything she dreamed of is much sadder than it first appears.
