Sometimes the internet ads that are directly on target also annoy me.
I know “The Pitt” is good! We watched ALL of it already! We can’t wait for them to make a second season! I miss my fictional doctor-friends*! Stop telling me that it’s cool and I should check it out!
*Dr. King is my best The Pitt friend and I miss her most.
Today’s #rec #ShowRec #TVRec #MediaRec is #NirvanaInFire #NIF a Chinese drama that doubtless many of you have seen already. A pitch/summary without spoilers is a challenge but I will give it a try.
Mei Changsu, our protagonist (played by Hu Ge), returns to the capitol city of ancient imperial China. Palace intrigue happens with utterly relentless skill.
It becomes increasingly clear that the past is not dead, everyone has feelings, and holy shit, cycles of revenge fuck everyone up in the end.
#TV rec for anyone who likes comedy.
Super funny, 8 episodes so it's a quick binge, stellar cast including Keegan-Michael Key, Judy Greer, Rachel Bloom, and Paul Reiser...
Check it out, you won't regret it.
One of my favorite shows of the past year is Owl House! Sadly cancelled before its time because of not "fitting Disney's target demographic" whatever the fuck that means, it is weird and quirky and kind in the tradition of the best middle grade cartoons. The third and final season is going to be 3 45-minute episodes, the first of which is a) already out on YouTube and b) AMAZING.
I love the Clawthorne-Noceda-and-auxiliaries extended family so much 💜
