TEENAGE BOUNTY HUNTERS is a modern Buffy/Veronica Mars-a-like from the Jenji Kohan stable at Netflix. "Zippy" is the word I've used – the dialogue, the plotting, the immediacy of the characters.pic.twitter.com/5C4X79071G

Watched BROAD CITY through for the first time and, it's pretty great throughout, but it really develops into something special around season 3. This is when you realise these characters have embedded themselves in your heart and they can break it, now.pic.twitter.com/cRWkPB4TFk

(It's also very funny, natch, and a wonderful portrayal of female friendship, and it has Hannibal Buress in so what more do you need honestly... but, just saying, it hits a little different when you're sorely missing your friends and doing stuff out in the world.)

OFF MENU is, to pick a predictable metaphor, my 2020 comfort food. The rare interview podcast where I listen to every episode – I might not care about the guest but do I want to judge their food opinions? yes, obviouslypic.twitter.com/k5R59JjJYf

From the other end of my podcast interests: CEREBRO is a character-by-character X-Men show. Part explainer, part discussion, with some great perspectives from the guests. As DoX pushes the subtext to the forefront, a good look at the queerness of Marvel's Merry Mutants.pic.twitter.com/lCJR0ZGxPa

SUPERMAN SMASHES THE KLAN is a fascinating comic, and not (only) for the reasons I expected. It's a child-friendly look at racism that has got plenty for grownups. Balances nuanced depiction of the Asian-American experience with getting to see Superman wreck some racists.pic.twitter.com/qDtCkQag3Q

Two episodes to go, but LOVE LIFE is basically a new Anna-Kendrick-starring indie romcom every week. I remember when I first watched Eternal Sunshine, and went on the hunt for films that felt like its more down-to-earth parts – this is exactly what I was looking for.pic.twitter.com/O6S9oKKk72

I watched the first episode and thought 'oh, this seems aggressively targeted at
@Reecelipman'. And then, a few later, there was a scene set at the Hamilton merch stand. Just laser focused. I dunno if he's watched it yet.Näytä tämä ketju -
It's got two big formalist devices, one I'm unsure about (the omniscient narrator, which I'm hoping will pay off somehow) and one I *love* (every episode is a new person, and a different era in the lead's life). This could be a trap, but the show finds some interesting twists.

...okay, phew. I think that's my mental drafts folder cleared out. Anyone else got stuff they want to rec? If I'm not familiar I'll make an effort to check it out, if I am I can probably co-sign.
