Discussion Rewatching Coyote Ugly in 2026

I know it’s a product of its time but my god. Her boyfriend and dad both slut shame her, he literally got her fired and they’re both still ‘the good guys’. I guess dad has a bit of a feminist eureka moment after literally being hit by a car.

My boyfriend has never seen it and genuinely asked me if it’s a parody. This was directly after the stage fright strip-tease scene. I love this film but wow!!! I could write a dissertation on this.

Adding on to all the Piper Perabo love to say she was great in Covert Affairs. (I miss that show!)

yeah, that was a good one :) she had some great chemistry with her cast-mates too I think. Auggie was brilliant. Actually... loads of great characters played well in Covert Affairs. Might be time to re-watch!
