This WEEK🌸

In Earth 2.0, the only disease that causes an early death is greed. So everyone works at being less greedy. Also, no animals are hunted for sport.

The Get Down - 11eps Musical drama series set in the late 70’s in the Bronx. Chronicles the beginning of hip hop. Watched it when it came out. Really good.

Lord of the Flies new 6 part miniseries, adapted by the writer of Adolescence

I just remembered that Saturday is "Misery" movie night! So excited!

Miniseries: Mare of Easttown. Love the acting across the board. Earth 2.0 - teleportation exists. I feel like this would eliminate the need for borders and would enable a more universally shared experience. In my optimistic imagination at least.

If I can live in a world with mythological creatures I’m fucking sold! If I can have some magic power too, bonus. I’d pick telekinesis or making calories not count. I’m super excited for Misery. Kathy Bates is the GOAT. A few reactors I’ve watched have interesting perspectives given the parasocial nature of YouTube. I’d be super curious about an updated version.

The Booth at the End (TV Series 2011–2012) The Booth at the End is a two-season series rather than a traditional miniseries. It features two seasons 5 episodes, a total of 10 episodes.

Omgggg you need to watch Bodies on Netflix it’s up your alley I reckon !!

Still gonna recommend Heated Rivalry :D 6 episodes for now and I think the ending is satisfying enough to not be too sad that Season 2 isn't out yet

Pride and Prejudice (the 1995 BBC adaptation) would make for very fun reactions, I think!

limited series: A League of Their Own Earth 2.0: no (zero!) states maintain or enforce borders, as governments no longer restrict (or authorize) human movement

Task on HBO 8 episodes

I loved "Death by Lightning"-2025 only 4 episodes. It is an American historical drama miniseries and described as a stranger-than-fiction true story of James Garfield, who rose from obscurity to become America's 20th President and Charles Guiteau, the man who assassinated him. I won't spoil it, but you will get to see an actor you already see in one of shows in your current list...only this time in a more serious role. Overall it's a damn good cast of actors. I loved that it was filmed in and around Budapest, Hungary so that, with only minor adjustments, the backdrops resembled American architecture and design of the late 1800s. Makes for an entertaining history lesson. I certainly learned some things I didn't get from the history books back in school! 

My recommendation is the Newsreader we made a deal ! time to uphold your part of it 😉

Gonna leave this mini-series here to simmer: Jury Duty.

Mini series: unbelievable

Oh I have to recommend Task. Task is a masterpiece. 7 episodes and all brilliant.

Ooh a mini series love that! Mare of Easttown is chefs kiss 💋 but my first choice is AKOTSK and someone already said that one 🔥 And my Earth 2.0 is a matriarchy 💖 Happy mothers day to the moms!!!

I recommend the french tv show Mortel on Netflix... it’s not very popular but it’s so good. It’s two seasons of six episodes. I dont remeber if it was cancelled or if it just end after two season

I'll second that on Earth 2.0, basic human needs are free. 😌

Since Queens Gambit has already been suggested ❤, I'm suggesting Mare of Easttown

I would love to see your reaction to How to get to Heaven from Belfast! It’s only 8 episodes and from the same creator as Derry Girls!

My limited series reccomendation is Maid with Margaret Qualley. It's such a good show and I think you'd really like it.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms! Half-hour episodes that will leave you wanting more. Beef Sharp Objects In Earth 2.0, everyone is kind.

miniseries rec: station eleven! I think you'd be into it 🥰

my mini series rec is the residence! 8 ep, 1 season! that's a mini series right? 😅 Free Healthcare in earth 2.0! That and everyone loves and adores cats

Maid ❤️

Excited for Misery! Queen's Gambit is my miniseries recommendation.

I highly recommend Sharp Objects with Amy Adams and its portrayal of mental illness. In Earth 2.0, everyone speaks an Indigenous language, maybe Anishinaabemowin. Indigenous languages are largely verb-oriented and this enables a fundamental relational view of nature and the living beings around us. Land, animals, and plants aren't seen as objects, but as living subjects with their own agency. The English language structures things like rocks, rivers, the wind, as inanimate objects, but for us Indigenous people, we see them as animate beings. This view of life carries a responsibility in the ways we interact with the world around us, there is reciprocity in how we connect with them. We take care of the land and animals so they can take care of us.

Fantastic movie choices this week

Weekly Question: top 3 things in the Earth 2.0 afterlife -ability to take any form -ability to communicate with everyone regardless of native language -teleportation

The Night Of

High Fidelity. High Fidelity. High Fidelity! Can you tell I love High Fidelity? I'll shout about it to anyone. Seriously underrated and so sad it only got one season. We need more women led shows. Oh and on earth 2.0 there's no social media and no influencers. No smart phones - just basic Nokia phones. Basic internet - no AI. And I completely agree - all healthcare, food, basic housing, education would be free. And nature is respected and protected as it should be here

my miniseries rec is A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (6 eps)! 🥹

Just ONE miniseries rec? You’re killin’ me, Frank. Hmm, okay, picked at random from the three I’ve rated a 10/10: Bodies (Netflix 2023)

my rec is i am not okay with this!! there’s only 1 season (7 episodes) it was unfortunately cancelled after s1 :( but it had a good and satisfying ending anyway :P i know you said one rec but if you’re okay with shows that have 2 seasons (8 eps in s1 and 7 eps in s2) i would like to recommend russian doll again!!!! 😋😋
