In this week’s episode of Turkish TV Obsessed (soon to be TV Obsessed), we’re back in East Texas for another juicy, unhinged installment of The Hunting Wives. Melissa and Laura break down Season 1, Episode 2, where bodies are found, church ladies gossip, and Margot proves she’s the most dangerous woman in Texas.

We talk about the episode’s wild mix of southern politeness meets dark secrets — from creepy preachers and “Project Life” baby drives to Margot’s complicated web of manipulation involving her husband, her girlfriend Callie, and teenage boy toy Brad.

By the time Sophie finds out what’s really happening at the lake house… let’s just say, this episode earns its “spicy” label.

We’re taking a short break from Turkish dramas and diving into a deliciously messy American thriller — The Hunting Wives! In this week’s episode, Laura and Melissa break down Season 1, Episode 1, filled with Texas gun culture, suburban secrets, and major sapphic tension.

Join us as we talk about Brittany Snow’s character Sophie — the ultimate fish out of water — and her dangerously magnetic connection with Margot (played by the stunning Malin Åkerman). From PTA parties that double as NRA fundraisers to a seductive skeet-shooting lesson and a bar scene straight out of a romance novel, we’re recapping every chaotic, scandalous, and juicy detail.

We also unpack first impressions of Sophie’s husband (spoiler: he’s the worst), debate who the mystery victim might be, and share our theories on what’s next for this glamorous, gun-toting small-town cult of wives.

We’re back! 🎉 In this bridge episode, Laura and Melissa open up about the future of the podcast. After two years of dissecting Turkish dramas (and falling head-first into the chaos of As the Crow Flies), we realized we needed to expand our scope. Why? Because the reality of watching Turkish shows outside of Turkey means sketchy streaming sites, glitchy subtitles, and two-and-a-half-hour episodes that are hard to keep up with.

So, where do we go from here? We’re widening our lens to cover shows available on Netflix and other global streamers—series that are binge-friendly, easy to access, and full of the wild drama we love.

In this episode we chat about:

• Why we’re moving beyond Turkish-only shows and what that means for you
• The wild fandom lore around Can Yaman (yes, the drama is REAL)
• How our tastes lean more toward thrillers and darker dramas rather than romcoms
• What to expect in this next phase of the show

✨ Big news: Our next recap series will be on The Hunting Wives (Netflix), based on the juicy novel by May Cobb. Think morally gray characters, suburban secrets, and binge-worthy twists—we can’t wait to break it down with you.

Stay tuned for episode one of The Hunting Wives as we officially launch the next era of the podcast. And yes, our name is still Turkish TV Obsessed (domain logistics!), but think of it as TV Obsessed with the “Turkish” playfully crossed out.
