Kiss the Bride, Stepbro: a guide to the 5 episodes

Kiss the Bride, Stepbro: what's the setup?

It all starts with a down-to-earth problem. Ava is planning a wedding, and her fiancé Brad cannot attend a single preparation. So she recruits a stand-in from the family: her stepbrother Leo is told to play the groom at every stage, whether it is the vows, the first kiss or the dress fitting.

The show toys with how far a rehearsal can go before it stops being one. Every scene opens as a practice session and keeps sliding closer to the real thing. Brad rings from wherever he is and is told again and again that all is well, while the closing episodes build towards the wedding night the synopsis promises. The mood is breezy, built around a stepbrother everyone calls harmless who keeps being put to the test.

Worth it if: you enjoy a rehearsal setup where each dry run ups the stakes, and a lead everyone assumes is harmless.

Kiss the Bride, Stepbro: the episodes

Nothing is padded out. Kiss the Bride, Stepbro covers its whole plot across 5 tight episodes, so it moves from opening scene to finale at speed.

Episode 1: For today, you're Brad

Ava summons Leo and informs him that he is Brad for the day. Leo reminds her that he is her stepbrother; her reply is that Brad is busy. She wants a practice run, so tonight Leo plays her fiancé. She shows him where Brad puts his hands when he holds her, where she would rather he held her, and says Brad has never got it right, not once.

Then the phone rings. Brad is on the line, asking if she managed to find a stand-in, and Ava tells him she did: her stepbrother. Brad sounds relieved and calls Leo harmless. Ava then moves on to rehearsing the ceremony, where the officiant announces that you may kiss the bride. Ava picks up the word Brad used, harmless, and tells Leo they are going to find out.

How explicit is Kiss the Bride, Stepbro?

Episode 1 works through suggestion: directions on where a groom ought to hold his bride, a phone call and a practice kiss left unresolved at the close. On screen, nothing goes past flirting. The premise has a bride and her stepbrother, two adults, growing too close in the run-up to her wedding; according to the synopsis, the paid episodes carry on right up to the night. It is meant for viewers aged 18 or over.

Kiss the Bride, Stepbro: our take

A good match if you enjoy a story frame that gives each scene a reason to exist. The wedding schedule keeps things moving, and Brad's phone calls add a touch of dramatic irony. If you want more stories built around a wedding, see The Maid of Honor.
