Werewolves, Wrinkles, Witches...oh my!
We continue our Halloween theme in the werewolf genre. When animal rescuer Renee Jones accidentally stumbles into a witch’s ritual, she ends up life-bonded to cursed alpha Nathan Veilhart who is a brooding, emotionally constipated werewolf with six months to live and abs to live for. Between fated mates, brother betrayal, and some suss CGI wolves, To Love or To Die, Mr. Alpha delivers Twilight adjacent werewolf melodrama. Oh, and there’s a dog too.
In this Halloween-themed episode of Talk Drama To Me, Jieun and Tiffany recap the witchy vertical drama Sleep With Me, Mortal!
Our witch Astrid Hall needs one thing to rebalance her powers, masculine energy. After a fire mishap, she transfers to an elite boarding school filled with sweaty mortal males, meets a blind boy named Nathan Woodford, and offers him the deal of the century: if she restores his sight, he has to sleep with her. Classic academic exchange program vibes, but make it witchy.
It is a perfect mix of humor and Halloween fun!
Jieun / Ji and Tiffany launch their new podcast, Talk Drama To Me, dedicated to recapping and roasting vertical dramas. (Yes, the short, mobile-friendly soap operas popular on apps like Reelshort.)
Tiffany watches only the free preview while Ji watches the whole dang drama.
This episode focuses on The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband, an OG vertical drama packed with tropes: a contract marriage, secret billionaire CEO, evil stepmother, and Russian mob ties. Natalie Quinn, desperate to pay her mother’s medical bills, marries Sebastian Klein, the "loser" son of a wealthy family, unaware he’s actually a billionaire CEO with a hidden agenda. The plot unfolds with misunderstandings, slaps, and dramatic reveals, culminating in a happy ending as Natalie and Sebastian fall in love.
