What We're Watching

Stop what you're doing and binge this Netflix show featuring a British actor who completely flubs this BBC-esque documentary about the history of everything. I laughed approximately every 8 seconds over some gaffe, misplaced word, or misunderstood concept. The presentation is a Venn diagram of Michael Scott from The Office, Borat, Ron Burgundy, and David Attenborough with some Monty Python and a Viking Cruise Lines commercial peppered in. I almost had to pause it because I was laughing so hard I stopped breathing. Pump Up The Jam indeed.

I want to start by saying I've never read the books (nor even heard of them).

I truly cannot understand the popularity of this show. The characters are 1-dimensional. The main character is a female who can't do anything without a man? She does nothing but cry and whine and whinge for her "friend". They both care so much about each other, but neither can describe their feelings? Does this show care about character building? And what about the main character's strength? She's supposedly been in the military for at least a few years, but somehow cannot fight or really stand up for herself. How can she be so pathetic and cringy? The only part of this show I like is the world and setting. They had so much going for them. But each character feels like a cardboard cutout of a stereotype. Actually, Inej is a possible exception to this.

All in all, I'm very disappointed with how they crafted this show. Should have been better.

This live action is one of the best adaptation I ever seen in my love thanks to the lovely cast and crew of OPLA and the OPLA discord server/ OPNF for giving us the small casting news like grant Ross as genzo and Chris Pratt as gaimon
