Sense and Sensibility

Hart of Dixie Chicks

Hold onto your butts, because we’re on a carriage ride with the Dashwoods. This week, we tackle the 2004 Sense & Sensibility miniseries, where we discuss the red flag combination of Lord Byron and Dominic Cooper, Cousin Matthew’s mullet, and a group of townies worthy of Bluebell. Don’t bother knocking, dear hearts— Meg already saw you and let us know you’re on your way.
