Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship.
Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better. Tyler, an entertainment reporter and critic, often finds himself drawn in despite his better judgment. Join them as they explore all the ways it’s possible to love too hard… like WAY too hard.
In this episode, Allie and Tyler take on the box office darling, The Housemaid starring Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar. For once, one of them read the book, so they get into every difference, every inner monologue the movie missed as well as how Hollywood’s beauty standard of women led to some pretty dumb changes. Was Sydney Sweeney’s apathetic acting enough to rescue this adaptation? Listen and find out.
Special thanks to Mallory Johns for the introduction music.
