The Weekend Binge: Lupin Part 3 Is Finally Here! Horror Galore 😱 Haunted Mansion 🔮Reality Shows Supersized, and a Posh Grenache To Wind Down 🍷
It’s the weekend! Let’s Binge 📺
You’ve probably already started binging this weekend, but there are still a few more gems 💎 I’m sure you haven’t checked out just yet! It’s a big weekend for streaming as the platforms are coming in hot (and scary!) for the month of October.
Leave it to Hulu to drop all the latest seasons of reality shows at once (see also MAX). There are so many hours and hours of streaming reality this weekend, so if that’s your vibe (I admit I’m a Housewives junkie), you have quite the catching up to do this weekend.
Keep scrolling for what’s on my watchlist this weekend - it’s pretty posh! — as well as a Grenache that I’ll be enjoying over mountain views! 🍷

Haunted Mansion
I actually saw this at the theaters recently and first off I love the Haunted Mansion ride, the whole vibe is everything and to see it on the big screen was quite thrilling. I had very very low expectations for this movie, so it did surprise me that it was better than expected. That doesn’t mean that its great, just means that it could be worth a watch. Nonetheless, Disney+ has screensaver from the movie so you can use your television to decorate your home for spooky season by having backdrops from the Haunted Mansion playing non-stop on your TV screen. Streaming Time: 2 hours, 3 min. Forecast: ⛅️

Sip & Stream: Deep Sky - Stellar Grenache (Arizona) x Beckham: Documentary (Netflix)
Yes, not only do I want to watch the documentary on Netflix about soccer superstar David Beckham, but let’s face it — watching Victoria Beckham to discover all her little quirks will probably be my favorite part — she eats the same thing everyday and hopefully we get a chance to see her closet and skincare routine!
I recently had the chance to taste a very nice Grenache wine from Arizona (yes, Arizona has wine!). It’s very well balanced blending notes of pepper and florals with a vibrant burst of red, juicy fruits like strawberries. It’s not too sweet, but also light at the same time. You’re not gonna get that boldness on the front, but the complexity of flavors in the finish makes up for that.
Happy Streaming! 🍷 📺
