sasha_featherI've been kind of bored and low-energy (probably asthma-related), so I am grateful to have TV to watch. I have been enjoying:
-What we do in the shadows (hulu)
-Ted Lasso (Apple)
-GBBO (netflix)
-TaskMaster (Youtube)
-Sex Education (Netflix)
I finished Reservation Dogs, which is on Hulu, and which I mostly loved, but it has some anti-black racism and some common triggers.
Tonight I finished Brooklyn 99, which I mostly enjoyed but it definitely felt like it was the right time for that show to end, and it was awkward at times because the writers and actors were clearly wrestling with the ethics of having a cop-show comedy.
I'm also caught up on 9-1-1, which is such an over-the-top show that I can't really recommend it, but I enjoy Hen and Chimney. It's annoying when shows like this think they have to go high stakes, major disasters, serial killers, etc, when there is plenty of drama in smaller moments and in realistic scenarios. For instance they had a character having a panic attack for the first time in his life, and that to me was more compelling than yet another natural disaster.

Thanks for letting my know about the suicide depiction in Reservation Dog's ep 7 -- I was able to watch around it.
