I started watching FROM from the start..which was a season ago.
It’s a sleeper you don’t want to sleep on, it started on EPIX but now it’s on mgm+
It’s actually pretty spooky. On a side note after a few episodes try not to sing along to the intro music…

Decided to start trying to get into watching Mr Robot again since I stopped after season 1 or 2 back in like 2016 or 2017 (aka pre-psychosis) and got 10 mins into s2e1 and have globus sensation (knot in throat) again for the first time in maybe a year.
So I think I'll watch something lighter instead today.
Also got Googling and found that it's not about schizophrenia like I thought it was (post-psychosis). I had heard it was a great portrayal of mental illness so I was keen to watch something that shows schizospec illness fairly or accurately.
Might have to revisit another time.
Idk how to make a post into an answerable question anymore but if you see this please comment shows or movies with fair portrayal/representation of schizophrenia (surely the representation can't be ALL bad, right?):

So. The Nevers. A show that never really went anywhere and was deemed a failure. When I watched it, I thought it was fun, entertaining and new. Now I'm re-watching it and it is a brilliant show.
The plot is amazing. Unusual, hard to see and still not fully revealed. In these days of obvious and easily understood super hero movies, action movies and fantasy shows, a nuanced, clever plot is lost. People have gotten a bit lazy when watching shows, and that's ok! Those shows and movies are great when you want a fun adventure or need to forget about work/school for a couple hours. But that doesn't mean we should trash shows that don't deliver the plot on a silver platter.
The Nevers is basically X-Men, but with more badass women, interesting character relationships, a witty and engaging dialogue, and set in Indistrial Age London. It lacks the forced-feeling relationships, the cheesy villains, the stupid costumes and the simple plot. It instead has a fascinating group of poc, queer and neuro-divergent characters, some that we love, some we hate, and some we can't help to relate with. And an amazing set and costumes!
I admit, the plot did get a little messy, and a couple of characters could have been removed without any impact to the story. Well, that we know of. There was only one season, and its very likely that everyone would have an important role to play.
I dont want this to get too long, but looking back, The Nevers was amazing. I did not see those plot twists coming, I adored the characters, and I loved the very human-ness of it. These characters are human. And they act like it. Even the villains have some good qualities, and reasons for what they do. The heroes have issues, questionable moments. It really makes you think and engage with the show. Please, go give it a second try!

Ohhhhhhhhhh.
Okay.
Yeah. I'mma watch this.
I don't care. I'll pretend it's like fanfic. It says 'based on' the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, after all. Like fanfic.
Just gonna block everything on here I think? So that the complainers don't ruin the pretty for me. Mhm.
The music. The visuals!
*screams*
I'll just ignore the inconsistencies. I mean, Tolkien was plenty inconsistent with himself on a lot of things. As long as they don't eff up the main feel/theme/message, I think I might enjoy this. I'll definitely give it a shot and then see.

The Capture (2019-)
🎬When a British soldier is charged with a crime, the tenacious young detective handling his case begins to uncover a multi-layered conspiracy.
📝Above is the synopsis of season 1 and this is a review of Season 2 (no spoilers). I loved the first one and this season is the same. It's thought provoking, gripping and pretty scary at times! An excellent thriller and a sci fi show. It is a must watch! An impressive show with excellent cast. . Both seasons are available on BBC iPlayer but I think they are also available on Peacock (or will be coming soon).

Danny Phantom, The Show:
geeky kid gets super powers from his parents' weird inventions! now he has to fight a rogue gallery of ghosts... but uh-oh! he still has to keep his grades up, deal with his embarrassing parents, and navigate girl troubles! rap theme song!
Danny Phantom, the Fandom, After 19 Years of Fermentation:
a child dies. but not quite. the inherent tension between life and death. the obsession of the dead for faded remnants of the living. warped green shadows on the walls of a dark laboratory. having to hide your true nature from those who should be your greatest allies. the fear of the monster you could become if you let yourself. being a ghost as a metaphor for the trans experience. a cold breath on the back of your neck in the dead of the night. rap theme song!

"why should I get invested in shows if they'll just get canceled" I was deeply invested in Heroes (2006) and it was not canceled, it just got really terrible. I also got really invested in the sandwich I had a few weeks ago despite it only lasting like 15 minutes. You must embrace the ephemeral. You must be willing to love things that may not love you back, that might betray you, or that may die an untimely death. As the great philosopher Mr. Mitchell Lee Hedberg said "I'm not gonna stop doing something because of what happens at the end."

Entertaining Shows and Movies for Creative Breaks
Great TV Shows and Movies to Enjoy When You're Not Busy Being Creative Yourself Here's a selection of European, Australian, and American shows and movies that are well worth your time.
The following recommendations from Indigo Kashmir are provided in no particular order of preference. Ever felt that sinking feeling when you invest your time in a show or movie only to regret it once it ends? Fear not, as the following list includes enjoyable and entertaining shows. Some are thought-provoking and inspirational. We hope you find them enjoyable.
Tumblr media
Vienna Blood (2019 - ): Max Liebermann, a student of Sigmund Freud, collaborates with Detective Rheinhardt to investigate a series of disturbing murders set against the backdrop of the grand cafes and opera houses of 1900s Vienna.
This show offers a delightful blend of history and a touch of Sherlock Holmes, all set in the charming city of Vienna. It features intriguing characters and incorporates elements of forensic science and psychoanalysis. If you're a fan of shows like Sherlock, this one is definitely worth a try. It's not overly violent or gory, and the fantastic interiors and vintage fashion add to its appeal. Keep an eye out for the upcoming season 4.
Tumblr media
Lykkeland 'State of Happiness' (2018-2022): On the night before Christmas in 1969, the gas flare at the Ocean Viking is ignited. Phillips has discovered the largest subsea oil basin in history, and everything is on the brink of change.
This beautifully shot and highly engaging show explores the transformative impact of Norway's oil discovery on the country and the small coastal town of Stavanger. Before watching, we had never considered what Norway was like before its oil era or how the country established a State Company to manage the newfound wealth for the benefit of all citizens. It's a truly fascinating story, and we absolutely loved it. We've only had the chance to watch season one. Even if you're typically drawn to Scandinavian murder mysteries, you'll likely find this show highly enjoyable. And if you do enjoy suspenseful dramas, we think you'll be entertained as well.
Tumblr media
Dash and Lily (2020): In this whirlwind holiday romance, cynical Dash and optimistic Lily exchange dares, dreams, and desires in a notebook they pass back and forth at various locations throughout New York City.
This is a heartwarming, charming, and uplifting rom-com set against the backdrop of the Christmas season. It's a delightful, old-fashioned feel-good series that will leave a smile on your face and infuse you with the holiday spirit. This universal story about finding someone you like is simply lovely. While Netflix has cancelled it after one season, it's still absolutely worth watching. It's an original series that captures the festive essence beautifully, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
Tumblr media
Tick, tick...Boom! (2021): This film is based on the autobiographical musical by playwright Jonathan Larson. It tells the story of an aspiring composer in New York City who grapples with doubts about his career choice while navigating the complexities of love and friendship.
While it is a musical, it's a unique one where characters don't sing their dialogue. The film is beautifully written, acted, and shot, delivering an exceptional cinematic experience. Andrew Garfield's versatility and talent shine through, and the entire cast is incredibly talented. We adored every aspect of this film. It's not only creatively inspiring but also deeply moving. We highly recommend it for anyone seeking inspiration and a memorable cinematic journey.
Tumblr media
800 Words (2015 - 2018): George Turner, a popular columnist for a top-selling Sydney newspaper, writes a weekly column of precisely 800 words. However, after his wife's passing, he impulsively buys a new home in the fictional New Zealand seaside town of Weld, a place filled with childhood memories. When he breaks the news to his two teenage children, Shay and Arlo, the vibrant and curious locals of Weld ensure that Turner's fresh start doesn't go as planned.
Warning: This show will likely awaken your desire to leave everything behind and move to New Zealand. We can't recommend it enough! It's an absolutely heartwarming, feel-good series that provides a lovely escape from the everyday stresses. You might even find yourself searching for a holiday to New Zealand to discover your very own little Weld.
The show's wit shines through, with a delightful array of interesting, funny, and endearing characters. What's particularly commendable is how it addresses various important issues in a sweet manner, including grief, matters of the heart, bullying, finding one's place in the world, friendships, and cyberbullying. Australia and New Zealand boast exceptional writers, actors, and directors, and the entire cast in this show is simply perfect. Watch it, and you won't be disappointed.
Tumblr media
Hacks (2021 - ): In this series, a dark mentorship develops between Deborah Vance, a legendary Las Vegas comic, and an entitled, outcast 25-year-old comedy writer.
It's an original, witty, and humorous show that's nothing short of fantastic, guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. The cast, especially Jean Smart, is outstanding. We wholeheartedly recommend it. However, it's worth noting that we found the second season to be not quite as good as the first.
Tumblr media
Manhattan (2014 - 2015): In Los Alamos, New Mexico, a group of American scientists are trying to build the globe's first atomic bomb in the midst of WWII, while their kin are trying to survive the secrecy of the project.
While the show takes some creative liberties for dramatic effect and may not be 100% historically accurate, it remains a fantastic series. With excellent acting, writing, and production, it offers a thought-provoking experience. We highly recommend it, especially if you're a fan of historical dramas, World War II narratives, or simply appreciate well-crafted shows.
We have a deep appreciation for excellent and original writing, beautifully produced shows, and thought-provoking stories. Stay tuned for more recommendations in the future. If you've watched any of these shows or have recommendations of your own, why not get in touch with us? We're always on the lookout for new and captivating shows to explore.

Damn it.
So, I heard enticing things about the upcoming show Found, but it will be on NBC and we know nothing good happens to shows on NBC (at least not those that interest me.)
But it won't hurt to look at the trailer, put it on my to-watch list for later if it makes it a few seasons down the line. Riiiiiight?
Except in the middle of the trailer there he was... Brett Dalton! How am I supposed to resist watching this now?! How?!
Better get ready for being disappointed when I watch and like it and then NBC cancels it after the first season (or sooner).
*sigh*
