![]() I know, it’s still shocking to think about it. You may recall that when we last left these two, Tom had gotten freaked out by some bad advice from Minnie Driver and called Jessie the dreaded P-word: pal. Fucking Joe, guys!!! To think I was wishing real love for him just last week!! Now he’s ditching probably very nice if not quite sad ladies on dates and ruining Jessie’s chances at happiness!! Joe!! But before we get to how Joe royally fucks things up for Jessie, we should talk about the other obstacle because when it comes down to it, Jessie and Tom only have themselves to blame for not making this work. It’s summertime on Starstruck, and this time around the obstacles keeping our would-be couple from really going for it are twofold: There’s the fact that neither of them has the courage to tell the other that they are extremely into whatever is happening between them and there’s also Joe. It’s a tough line to walk, but Starstruck walks it well even here in its third outing, and yes, third thwarting of something real happening between Jessie and Tom. One mark of a good romantic comedy is that you can be yelling “Will you two dummies just get together already?!” while also enjoying the fact that those two dummies haven’t gotten together already because it means more flirting and more almost-kisses and more yearning. ![]() Rewatch along with us and check back every Thursday morning for the next episode. Since we’re in rom-com season and the return of Starstruck is quickly approaching, Vulture is returning to where the romance began with weekly recaps of season one.
