This week we talk about food on television. Not that we don’t love a good binge of British Bake Off, but we’re talking food as part of a scripted show. Food is an essential part of life, so should it be for our characters on TV, but it’s so much more than set dressing. Food is a language, one that is full of reveals, secrets, and metaphors. We talk about how the choice of food in a script should never be random because what someone eats, or doesn’t eat, says so much about them. We also discuss how food can shape a story or can even be the engine for the story itself. And yes, it totally matters what is inside the fridge on set when it opens.
In the Devotional, Sierra admits to spending a crazy amount of time on TikTok but has been rewarded by the algorithm gods as they guided her to discovering Gilmore Gay. Moni laments her lack of inspiration for cooking lately and makes a bold attempt to get herself right again by signing up for a virtual cooking class with Claudia Christian.
