1899 premiered on Netflix one year ago today and even though I’m still completely utterly devastated over the unrightfull cancellation I’m just so thankful this show got to exist in the first place. I’m so thankful that it got what it got even though it deserves more🥲
And I truly can’t recommend it enough! 1899 is captivating and thought provoking, with a plot that runs so deep and characters that are far more than what you see on the surface. It truly truly is worth the watch and will keep you guessing till the very end (and beyond because yk Netflix is shit)
So please if you haven’t yet GIVE IT A WATCH! You won’t regret it

btw another thing i love about 1899 is that eyk larsen is, by far, the most emotionally vulnerable character. he cries the most out of all the characters. his decisions are based on instinct and feeling. and not once is it ever implied that any of that makes him less of a man or weak in any way.
so many clearly traumatized male characters in fiction are portrayed as emotionally distant and barely ever allowed to really break on screen, the only emotion they're allowed to express is anger. which is, unfortunantly, accurate to how men are expected to act in real life.
but 1899 has none of that. eyk's anger at elliot in episode 2 is treated as just as much of an emotional response as him breaking down at the memories of his family. and him having those emotional moments is never presented as shameful or a character flaw (even though he did seem a little embarrassed about snapping at elliot like that, which is fair).
i'm not a man, i've never had to deal with being expected to be logical and rational and emotionless at all times, but i can sort of imagine what this kind of representation would mean to someone who's been made fun of for not being 'manly' enough because of their emotional reactions and responses.
overall, 1899 proving yet again why it's worth a watch.

don’t get me wrong, Emily Beecham is a very, very beautiful human being, but I was so glad to see that they didn’t “beautify” Maura unnecessarily
it always irks me to no end when shows put female characters (especially the leads) in environments of hardship or survival and they still look perfectly sculpted and flawlessly beautiful and unattainable in every single way
but Maura had messy hair and loose strands falling everywhere and in some scenes looked positively ill and, honestly, I do appreciate that because that poor woman went through a lot and she should be looking a bit rough around the edges

Another edition of “What if 1899 was animated?” This time featuring Daniel, Maura and Eyk - of course! These are honestly SO much fun to draw. I’m already a little obsessed haha
