Death To 2020 (2020), Cristin Milioti, Netflix My favourite thing about Netflix’s Death to 2020, a comedic retrospective of the year that was 2020 is the phrase ‘Prime Ministerial scarecrow, Boris Johnson.’ I laugh every time I re-read it, because it’s true. There’s certainly a handful of more amusing moments within the show, whether it’s […]

Ranking my Top 10 Television Shows of 2020: Which Shows Made The Cut?
It’s hot, it’s steamy, you know you want to (and chances are, you already have: this series has been ULTRA popular on Netflix). It’s deliciously anachronistic, unapologetically salacious, and totally bingeable.

Directors frequently used radio to anchor the Depression-era dramas that proliferated during these years, presenting it as a nostalgia effect with no real presence in the present.
