Harry & Meghan (2022)
Brilliant
How incredibly vulnerable and insightful this series has been into not only the experiences these two individuals have lived through, but also those around them. There is so much bravery in the very act of telling your life story. Even more bravery in choosing to tell your story when you have lived your entire life being forced to have your story told and that story being told for you. When Harry spoke of future conversations with his children about the legacy of his decisions, it was clear to me how honorable of a man he is. When Meghan read that poem of experiencing life as a child of divorce, that very powerfully hit home for me as well.
This series also highlights the oppression that continues to exist in the world of the long-lived British Empire. The small informational pieces regarding the way the Royal Family works, the Commonwealth and the well connected parallels from the past to present gave me a better understanding as to how this system has and continues to operate.
There is no doubt in my mind that any overly negative commentary or low rating is yet another attempt from the Royal Family (OR a disgruntled Make-The-UK-Great Again, Boris Johnson supporter OR Samantha Markle) to control another story - which is exactly what this series exposes. In the modern world, The Royal Family will either modernize themselves, requiring them to adequately address the actions of it"s past and present oppressive actions or they will fall to a new empire they have never faced - the progressive world of social media.
Please watch for yourself and develop your own opinion. It is clear Meghan and Harry are both brilliant and humble humans. Peace, safety and prosperity to them and their ongoing families.

Loved it!
I absolutely loved watching this series. I'm hoping there will be more!
Charli, Dixie and their family and friends did such a respectable move here. It is very brave and grounding to be this real. It's a nice reminder for us all to remember behind our screens and our seemingly happy lives, we are all real people with real problems, even if those problems differ from other problems.
Life is hard and being kind can answer all sorts of problem.
Massive respect and love to these girls.
In a way I didn't even realize, I needed to see this! #humbled.
Evil Eye (2020)
The Story Had Much More Potential
These actors were phenomenal and I feel like the writers were onto something excellent but it closed out so quickly and without a lot of follow up. Details wins every time. Viewers want to know the after. Leaving it high and dry CAN be a good ending, but only when those peak moments are good enough for said ending. This one just wasn't it.
I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth v. Michelle Carter (2019)
A Tragically Heartbreaking Story
When I first heard of this story, as it was happening, I thought Michelle Carter was a monster. I can no longer stand by that opinion.
This documentary exposes the dangers of mental health of young adults growing up in a world of media and technology that has never existed before. I think it is vital that every single person watches this. Whether a parent, a friend, a teacher, a family member.
This story is the most tragically heartbreaking story I have ever heard.
Erin Lee Carr did yet again, another amazing job.
