Mr. Corman (2021)
pure anxiety
I watched this show knowing that apple tv has previously had very good quality shows in their repertoire. This is not one of them. Finished the first two episodes and all I can say is it produces a level of anxiety that just should not exist in a tv show. We all know that it exists in real life, but this showcases that everybody has it yada yada. Nothing new and definitely does not need to be showcased. Feels contrived and the protagonist is so unlikable. I love JGL but this show is not one I would recommend.
Best way I can describe the emotions this show brings: constant tension with my college roommate and we pass each other in the kitchen and want to say something but neither wants to make things worse. Quiet, apprehensive, no way out. DO NOT WATCH IF YOU SUFFER FROM ANXIETY. It will only make it worse.
Chernobyl: Vichnaya Pamyat (2019)
Best Series Ever
This is the first miniseries I have ever seen because I like to feel connected to the characters and worry that five episodes is not enough to make me care.
I have never been more wrong. It is beyond informative and emotional and human and everything that I could ever ask in a tv show.
What I love about this show is that it isn't fan service. It's honest and thought-provoking. From every life-or-death moment to the quiet dialogue between Boris and Legasov, this show proves the importance of asking the right questions even if it means you might prove yourself wrong.
I find it hard to believe that there will ever be a better, more necessary show than this and I can't express how glad I am that I took a chance on this show. Watch it.
