The 'Good for Her!' Cinematic Universe

This week, the Junkies catch up and find that Nicole is still a Ride-or-Die for Law and Order: SVU, even though the romance between Stabler and Benson hasn’t moved any closer to Smoochtown; Olivia binged a 55 part-TikTok series about a pathological liar, then tries to make Shauna think she doesn’t know who Gordon Ramsey is; and Shauna humblebrags that she has layers, like an onion, or an ogre, which will come as no surprise to any government agency that’s monitoring her Google searches. Then the Junkies explore the ‘Good for Her!’ Cinematic Universe, a genre that has at one end the body horror flick American Mary, and at the other, the far less gory Legally Blonde, with Gone Girl being somewhere in the middle. It’s a genre whose mascot is a Lucille Bluth meme and often involves some very specific kinds of revenge. And although some of the protagonists in these ‘Good for Her!’ movies might not be able to convince a court of law that the bad guy had it coming, we in the audience are all silently agreeing: “Good for her.” Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pop-culture-junkie/id1536737728 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7k2pUxzNDBXNCHzFM7EL8W?si=6d2845539f0843c9 Website: www.popculturejunkie.com Facebook: PopCultureJunkiePodcast Twitter: @PopJunkies Instagram: @pop.culturejunkies Threads: @pop.culturejunkies Email: [email protected] Shauna on Instagram: @shaunatrinidad  Shauna on TikTok: @shaunatrinidad Shauna on Threads: @shaunatrinidad Nicole on Instagram: @nicole_eldridge Nicole on TikTok: @nicole_eldridge Olivia on Instagram: @livimariez Olivia on TikTok: @livyolife420
