Netflix has many great shows and today I’ll list some of my favorites…
Kipo tells the story of a world far in the future, when humanity has been forced underground by “mutes” – mutated, intelligent animals that have since taken over the surface world. Nature has reclaimed civilization, and humans live in small community “bunkers” just trying to survive. Kipo, a young girl from one such community, suddenly finds herself alone on the surface after being forced to flee her bunker when it is attacked by a massive, six-armed Mega Mute monkey.
The past months since the COVID-19 outbreak have felt monotonous for the majority: wake, eat, sleep, repeat. With days blending, losing track of time has become a shared experience. Through this all, one thing has kept me sane; one show, in particular, continues to keep my brain’s gears turning: BoJack Horseman.
Showcasing the upturned life of an angry widow, Netflix’s series Dead to Me earns five stars for being extremely bingeable. This show starts off when hot-tempered Jen, who just lost her husband in a hit and run, meets eccentric and bubbly Judy at a grief support group. These two polar opposites become fast friends and each episode is flowing with humor that is seasoned with just the right amount of cynicism.
Avatar: The Last Airbender is a masterclass in creating an entirely unique story set in a world full of lore and detail. The emotionally heavier elements are balanced by incredible world-building and character development, as well as genuinely funny moments and compelling subplots. I find myself turning to Avatar when I need a breather from current events because I can escape into a rich, diverse, creative world that makes me laugh and cry all at once.
