    The OA looked interesting, but I haven’t looked into it beyond the autoplayed trailer. Do you have a 1 sentence description/comparison?

      Metaphysical cerebral drama. The only unfortunate thing I will say about the show is it fell victim to the Netflix ban train. It was meant to have 5 seasons and only got 2. The creators have been very vocal and consistent with saying they want to bring the end to us no matter what though.

        That’s too bad. Are the first two seasons worth watching on their own or should I see if it finds a new home before starting it?

          Personally, I love the show for the symbolism in it. I’ve gone back and rewatched it maybe 6 or 7 times. I just wish it had more. That said, I’d say it’s worth a watch.

      I thought it was pretty awful. It’s incredibly pretentious and just generally really stupid. End of season one was honestly pretty embarrassing, and the fact that anyone liked it is honestly baffling
