The Spill

The BAFTAs have shaken up awards season… and the internet has turned on one of Hollywood’s most “relatable” couples.

On today’s show, we’re breaking down everything that went down at the BAFTA Awards — from the surprisingly safe red carpet to the wins that have completely blown open the Oscar race. One Best Actor upset has left Timothée Chalamet and Leonardo DiCaprio’s awards hopes looking a little less certain.Plus, the film dominating the night might just be the one that defines this year in cinema.

Then, we need to talk about Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard. A viral essay dissecting their marriage — and the idea of being “hated by your husband” — has reignited long-simmering criticism of the couple. Their celebrity friends have rushed to defend them, but is this backlash actually about something bigger? We have thoughts.

The Spill has launched a TV-binging podcast called Watch Party, where we unpack the biggest shows and movies everyone’s obsessing over.
Right now, we’re deep in Bridgerton Season 4 — and this is your perfect mid-season catch-up. We’re reflecting on everything that’s happened so far, revisiting the scandals, slow burns and blink-and-you-miss-it moments, and getting fully prepped (and emotionally unstable) for Part 2.
If you need a refresher before the drama resumes — or just want more tea behind the ton — make sure you’re following the Watch Party feed. Your ultimate binging companion awaits.

We’re diving headfirst into Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights — a movie that’s as stylish and visually wild as it is divisive. And yes, our hosts have thoughts… plenty of them.

We unpack the twisted romance of Cathy and Heathcliff, Emerald’s bold (and sometimes baffling) costume choices, and the way the movie navigates sex, consent, and obsession. Plus, we discuss how some characters get a total makeover from the book — and how that changes the story entirely.

From moments that made us gasp, to scenes that left us questioning “what did I just watch?” — we cover it all. Strap in for our brutally honest review of the movie that dares to turn a classic gothic tale into a TikTok-ready romance.

Read the article we mentioned about Heathcliff's character being white washed here.

Time to dive into a mix of toxic romances, grocery store mysteries, and the ultimate tribute to lifelong female friendship.

First, we’re checking in on the Tell Me Lies fandom, which is currently "going through it" after its shock cancellation. With all three seasons now available on Disney+, we discuss why this collegiate drama is the perfect, albeit triggering, binge for anyone who loves a messy, narcissistic romance.

Then, things get steamy and suspicious with a new erotic mystery thriller on Amazon Prime. Based on a best-selling novel, this eight-episode series follows a couple who meet at a supermarket (suspicious!) and stars Dove Cameron and Avan Jogier. It’s the perfect blend of grizzly murder and high-intensity chemistry.

Finally, we head to Northern Ireland for the new caper from the creator of Derry Girls. It’s a hilarious, fast-paced love letter to millennials that will make you want to call your mates immediately.

Plus, a little PSA: Our Brutally Honest Review of Wuthering Heights is dropping in the feed this afternoon at 3pm.
