DEATH TO 2020: a perfect summary of this unlucky year!

Although this blog is dedicated to TV series, sometimes I must make an exception for your own good! That's why today I will recommend you a fantastic Netflix production that appeared on this site at the end of December 2020...

I decided to do it because some movies simply cannot be missed. Death to 2020 is a mockumentary created in collaboration with world-famous comedians. Hugh Grant, Lisa Kudrow, Samuel L. Jackson - these are just a few actors starring in this one-hour documentary. The idea of the creators of Death to 2020 was to give people a reason to laugh, summing up a year that turned our lives upside down.

The global pandemic and its consequences, political scandals, mass protests, natural disasters are the main themes of this mockumentary. At this point, you are probably wondering how it was possible to mock such a dramatic and catastrophic events? Believe me - the creators of Death to 2020 did the impossible. It turns out that we can see our reality from a very different perspective: we just need to keep a distance! Obviously, I'm talking about an emotional distance ;)

Lisa Kudrow as Donald Trump's spokesperson, or Hugh Grant as a homophobic historian are simply hilarious.

An hour in front of the TV will pass quickly and when you're done watching this fantastic mockumentary, you'll want more! Luckily for us, the creators of Death to 2020 have already announced the summary of 2021. And although we must admit that 2020 provided them a lot of material, my intuition tells me that 2021 will not disappoint them either...

Death to 2020 is now available on Netflix!

The Flight Attendant and Kaley Cuoco in a brand-new role

For every fan of The Big Bang Theory, Kaley Cuoco will stay Penny forever. However, time doesn't stand still. New TV series are released every day and every actor dreams of making his mark in film history with more than a role in a sitcom...  Cuoco was given an opportunity to change her image - and she took it. That's why we can all watch her playing the main role in a new HBO TV series: The Flight Attendant.  Source: en.martincid.com This production is an adaptation of the book of the same title written by Chris Bohjlian.  Cuoco plays the main character - Cassandra - an American flight attendant and a reckless alcoholic. Escaping from responsibilities, self-indulgence, and addiction – that's Cassie's whole life. As we can guess, that doesn't help her making good life choices. One day, during a flight to Bangkok, Cassie meets a very handsome guy. Already in Bangkok, she spends a night with him. The next day, she wakes up in his bed in a hotel room... and the handsom...

The Queen's Gambit – one of the best TV series of 2020!

Two months ago I was pretty convinced that the fourth season of "The Crown" will be the biggest attraction on Netflix this fall. However, my opinion changed when Netflix released "The Queen's Gambit", a new mini-series based on a novel written by Walter Tevis.  Source: m.imdb.com We live in a world where it's just impossible to watch every TV series. We can choose from so many options! Of course, this situation has its pros and cons. But one thing is certain - it's more and more difficult to attract viewers. TV series are trying so hard to stand out. The story must be complicated, the action must be very fast, plot twists are indispensable...  "The Queen's Gambit" doesn't share these characteristics. And even so, it's one of the biggest hits of Netflix this fall! The series tells us the story of Beth Harmon - an outstanding chess player. The story begins in the mid-1950s when Beth is eight and sent to an orphanage. Her mom, who was ...

Good Behavior - one of the most underrated TV series in recent years

Do you know that feeling, when you watch a TV series, you become interested in it, and then it turns out that the production is not popular enough and is finally canceled? This is what happened to me after watching two seasons of Good Behavior. What a pity! I believe that if the show ever hit Netflix, it would be quite a success. Unfortunately, it never happened, probably for legal reasons... And although the series is considered a failure, I must say that I strongly disagree with this general opinion. What's more, I highly recommend watching Good Behavior to all of you! This is a unique opportunity to watch Lady Mary from Downton Abbey playing a junkie and recidivist speaking with an American accent! Source: m.imdb.com Actually, Michelle Dockery plays Letty, the main character of Good Behavior. Letty is a very complicated woman in her thirties. The series starts when she gets out of prison. She spent a few years there for stealing and multiple drug offenses. However, she gets out ...
