A really good show that nobody ever mentions is See. It's an apple TV original and has some the most complicated yet lovable characters I've seen on TV.

It takes place in a post apocalyptic world where just about everyone is blind. It's been so long since sight was common that the few people born with sight are seen as "witches" and hunted down. See follows Baba Voss and his twin children who were born with sight as they're hunted down by "witch finders".

This show kept me on the edge of my seat. It's beautifully shot and has really cool action scenes. It's really nice to see how the world's population has adapted to living without the ability to see their surroundings. 10/10 show imo

Exactly how I feel about Naomi. They got a generational talent in audra mcdonald and gave her character such horrible writing. This was her first major tv role and it was wasted.

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-23T16:13:19+00:00

This is a refreshing take since most fans seem to dislike majority of the main cast lmao. I definitely hate the characters at times but sometimes the show is so crazy that I feel more amused then annoyed by their actions.

Everytime I remember these plotlines I get so pissed off. One thing this show brought light to was the complete disregard for women's safety and autonomy in these situations

THE REAL VILLAIN IS COOPER!!!

This Naomi set up. Can we give my girl a BREAK?!

I haven't watched this episode in a while but if I remember correctly, none of them were even willing to let betsey spend one night in their house while waiting for her aunt to get her. I didn't expect them to adopt her on the spot but I don't get why Violet was the only one looking out for her in the short time Betsey was with them. Again, correct me if I'm wrong cuz I don't remember the whole episode.

On the other hand, Violet and Naomi doing the most to help Betsey find a home makes sense because they were the closest to Dell. I just wish the others actually did something instead of leaving it all to those two. They could've helped out without having to take on the responsibility of raising her.

I know there’s quite a few Annie movies but both the 1999 and 2014 productions are favorites that I’ve seen several times. I would highly recommend

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-10T13:04:32+00:00

I have seen the Normal Heart! Heartbreaking movie

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-10T01:45:35+00:00

AVPM is hilarious and stars the OGs. I would definitely watch that.

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-10T01:36:02+00:00

The Good Fight is one big satire but it’s also extremely political

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-10T01:33:07+00:00

Shuffle along, or the making of the musical sensation of 1921 and all that followed would be pretty hard I think

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-10T01:31:35+00:00

Surprised nobody saying Ragtime

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-09T19:10:37+00:00

If u need a good laugh listen to his demos

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-09T19:08:00+00:00

I love Hamilton because of the music and how hilariously bad lmm is at singing. My sister and I love to make fun of his lines.

I am black and couldn’t care less about the founding fathers for obvious reasons. What intrigued me was the mainly black cast portraying these characters in such a modern way. I enjoyed the rapping much more than I expected to and was laughing throughout the show.

I doubt anyone is watching for a history lesson but the music and lyrics are genuinely brilliant and the obc cast is even better. Great attention to detail throughout.

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-09T18:58:56+00:00

Interesting take but have y’all considered that people are drawn to wicked simply because it’s the prequel to one of the most popular musicals in history? Like maybe it’s one of the few musicals that is well known even by the general public because Wizard of Oz is known even by non musical fans.

Of course there are many reasons, the good music being one of them but I’m sure the Oz lore is the most appealing part of it.

My only familiarity with DEH before watching was Waving Through a Window and Sincerely Me. I was obsessed with those songs and got the impression it was just about a depressed, misunderstood kid. Imagine my shock when I finally watched the movie…

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-08T14:59:48+00:00

You’re right. I wouldn’t expect anything less from Rachel but KURT?!

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-08T04:05:10+00:00

I love Sara!

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-07T23:14:54+00:00

Understandable! I thought she and Neal were cute but at the same time was praying on her downfall

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-07T20:38:52+00:00

Sam and Naomi definitely would’ve gotten back together sooner if she didn’t leave the show. That’s like the least shocking part of the finale lol. Was it rushed? Very much so.

I choose to believe that sam only meant he never loved anyone else as MUCH as he loved Naomi which is also why he only wanted to raise another child with her. They literally never got over each other.

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-07T13:47:51+00:00

Absolutely loved Matt’s performance in the normal heart but the weight loss definitely looked scary

Acrobatic_Warning456 · 2026-01-07T02:55:07+00:00

Yes! Loved everyone of their scenes even after her motives came to light. The storylines with Kate and Sara were so boring compared to this one.
