We didn’t want season seven to end and go unnoticed by Part-Time Characters. Bridget and Maria get together one last time to recap the season finale of Game of Thrones, The Dragon and the Wolf. The main characters finally leave their usual locations and meet in King’s Landing to discuss alliances and joining forces to fight the army of the dead.
This week the Part-Time Characters get together and discuss some of the best scifi films from the 1970s and how their creativiy paved the way for other amazing classics. Close Encounters of the Third Kind is celebrating its 40th anniversary which inspired Sam to select this week’s topic and show Bridget and Maria how many ’70s movies they need to watch.

Go on…Our Top Sci-Fi Movies from the Seventies / Part-Time Characters
For this week’s episode, Bridget and Sam tackle the paradoxical use of time travel in some of our favorite movies. They each pick their best and worst movies that use time travel correctly. For the record, they don’t mean to say these movies are necesarily bad or incredible, just that they weren’t as accurate about time travel as other movies have been.

We need to talk about the latest Game of Thrones episode and all the horrible things that happened. This week, instead of recapping everything that happened by location, we decided to go for a more unstructured alternative. Bridget and Maria pick out all of the moments from this episode that felt inaccurate, overdone or too deus-ex-machina. Which were a lot.
Just because we are delayed in our Game of Thrones schedule does not mean we are not super excited and full of theories for the fifth episode of season seven, Eastwatch. For this week’s recap, Adonis and Bridget get together to discuss Jon’s new friendship with Drogon and possible romantic tension between him and Dany. Weird much?
The Part-Time Characters had an assignment this week- to watch classic movies they have had on their lists for too long. That’s right! We are back with another episode of Retro Reviews, where Bridget discusses Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Sam watches The Goonies, Maria gives Goodfellas a shot and Adonis does pretty much whatever he wants.
The fourth episode of season seven of Game of Thrones left us all in shock, on the edge of our seats and more obsessed with dragons than ever. Maria and Bridget get together to recap ‘The Spoils of War’, analyzing what is up with Bran’s emotionless behavior, Littlefinger’s possible demise and did we mention dragons?
