💜 On http://www.ladyteruki.com I've been writing (in ꜰʀ) about television from all over the planet, for over a decade and a half ! I believe in being curious about the world through its TV shows.
Reviews, history, fun facts... so far 6700+ publications have been made available for free, ad-free.

But I'm a disabled person living under the poverty line, so I have a Ko-fi where people can support me : https://ko-fi.com/ladyteruki

I know it can be confusing that I toot in English, but write in French.
If it helps clarifying things : the way I see it, English is a great language to socialize with more strangers than French allows me to, hence why I use it on social media.

That said, I've heard from several of my readers that translation tools usually do the trick :) It's not ideal, but writing in two languages would be too much work for my disabled a**, sorry.

Ko-fi posts are in both languages, though 🙂

There are MANY ways to support me :
- boost my articles when you see them (this thread is also pinned)
- talk about my publications if you like them (and even if you don't ! constructive criticism is cool) so that others get to hear about what I do
- support me one time or regularly, on Ko-fi ( https://ko-fi.com/ladyteruki ), as it helps me survive
- follow me on Ko-fi, which doesn't require you to contribute financially if you can't or don't want to (or not yet)
- comments ! I like them 💜

Thank you so much for your support in 2023, regardless of what shape it took. I hope to prove worthy of it in 2024 also.

I'm really looking forward to a new year of discoveries, and hope we'll discuss tons of TV shows together :)
Stay tuned for more reviews soon !

❔ The first Take Five article of the year is the occasion for me to discuss the first episode of five shows that didn't get their own review, for a variety of reasons. Oh, what's that ? You want to know what shows I'm talking about ? Well, there's really only one way to know...!
Especially since this year's Take Five will look a little bit different...

🇬🇧 Sometimes it's just really, really, really hard to convince you to watch a show without telling you why it's good. Because why it's good comes from the emotional impact of not being prepared for what it's doing ! So let me take up the challenge, and see what I can do for the first episode of British series #BigMood.

🇲🇽 Many people these days have weird beliefs that have nothing to do with reality. Sometimes it's about aliens, sometimes it's about success as is the case for Dalí Montero... despite not having any. Will a providential inheritance finally change everything ? Mexican comedy #Fabricantedeovnis isn't too optimistic.

@Mila_no_toot (semi-related : what browser do you use ? I've found that Firefox has a built-in website reader, I don't know if you knew)

Mila_no_toot Apr 19, 2024

@ladyteruki Yes, I use firefox, as well as the reader. That is how I "read" your post on the french series ! It's just not exactly "nice" to listen to + it's annoying that you can't pause it in the middle of a paragraph (it always go back to the start of it... when I change the pace of the reading too)

But I do use it sometimes :)

ladyteruki Apr 19, 2024

@Mila_no_toot : oh I didn't mean that just for me, it's just that you talking about your eyes reminded me that I had noticed it recently :) It's ok, I prefer that you manage your eyes rather than you read my silly posts. Don't worry about it.

Mila_no_toot Apr 19, 2024

@ladyteruki Still... But ♥

And the reader does come handy at times :) Even when my eyes are good, I sometimes use it on long text, because reading and hearing at the same time helps me concentrate on words.

ladyteruki Apr 19, 2024

@Mila_no_toot : oh that's a good idea ! I hadn't thought of that but I did notice I had a harder time focusing on long reads lately, so maybe I could use it for that too :)

Mila_no_toot Apr 19, 2024

@ladyteruki :) It does help for me ! I started doing it in word when proof reading translations to make sure I'd read each word and not skim.
