I write short reviews. This is a series to watch, enjoy and savor long after you watch the finale. It’s gorgeous to see and dark to know. Personally, I loved learning that Catherine didn’t kill herself in service to or out of despair of the patriarchy like so many characters fiction or not, seem forced to do. One that comes to mind is Elizabeth (Vicky Krieps) in Corsage, also the countless mothers who were either murdered or dead before a story even opens.
Jeff Garlin decided Hannah Gadsby should voluntarily cut off her own income before she was allowed to criticize Ted Sarandos and Netflix but says men who do horrible things don’t deserve to lose their money. Mike Birbiglia and Hasan Minhaj show us perfect examples of what girls hear from their dads who don’t understand that their daughters hear them long before they go out into the ruthless world of men.
Dr. Maya Shankar interviews Annie Duke (author of How To Decide). A great conversation about how we value certain kinds of decisions and how some of the ones we’ve seen as failures might be better seen in a different light.
