In this week’s episode of I’ve Been Meaning to Watch That, host Manika welcomes back returning guest Mar Mar, a sharp and insightful film and TV critic known for her candid takes across TikTok and YouTube. The duo kick things off with Media Mania, covering the current surge in video game adaptations—from Minecraft and Five Nights at Freddy’s to The Last of Us and Fallout. They debate what makes a successful adaptation, the risks of IP fatigue, and the evolving standards for storytelling in gaming cinema.
Then, the two dive deep into the Apple TV+ hit Bad Sisters, breaking down Season 1’s pitch-black comedy, the unbearable villainy of JP, and the sisterhood that powers the show. They explore themes of misogyny, gaslighting, revenge, and the complex emotional toll of abuse. It’s funny, heartfelt, sharp—and not afraid to get messy.
If you love shows with layered characters, chaotic murder plots, and emotionally resonant commentary on modern womanhood, this episode is for you
