Host, writer, romcom admirer Bradley Freeman, forces his co-host, Mark Tasker, to watch Nancy Meyers' It's Complicated. Mark hates it so much. Saving them both (in more ways than one), they are joined by storyteller, voice actress, audiobook narrator, and romantic genre nerd extraordinaire, Morgan Strueby, to ask:
Do 88% of the film's problems lie with Alec Baldwin's smuggity smug character?
What is up with the kids? THESE DAMNED KIDS!?!?!
Was Bradley an idiot to be so easily charmed by this film? Yes. Yes, he was.
Pour a wine, bake some croissants, and settle in for one of Written Off's best episodes yet!
