Them (2021)
Triggered on all levels for Season 1 but 2 spared me.
This is superbly written, directed, acted and outstanding in terms of production so I really wanted to give a higher rating for S1 (7.5) however I warn you, if as an African American you were alive around this time period in America, this season most likely will be severely triggering and painful at times to watch. A warning should be posted at the start of every episode. I can't say I enjoyed watching season 1, if I could detach from the memories it stirred or if it didn't closely reflect much of my childhood, I probably would have enjoyed it because the acting is Amazing. My grown daughter is excited to watch season 2, so I decided to watch with her and enjoyed that it was no where near as gory as AHS but similarly connected to season 1 although a completely different story line. They really deserve a host of awards for this production. Ignore any low rating, If anyone rates this show low they are incapable of acknowledging great acting & writing when they see it if they don't like the story being presented. Many people alive today experienced that kind of racist hatred displayed in the first season. Just because they've never seen it, doesn't mean it wasn't realistic to others. S1 was Painful, yes, S2 (8) was a mind bender & exceptionally well acted absolutely creatively disturbing 🙌🏽
Where Is Wendy Williams? (2024)
So hard to watch but not surprised
This documentary is heart wrenching but expected to some degree 💔
When you don't honor & respect others - as was done daily under the guise of a career...
When you don't honor & respect yourself by staying with a man who disrespected and dishonored you in public and private under the guise of a marriage...
When you don't respect and honor your body by abusing drugs & alcohol under the guise of partying...
It's not a surprise to anyone with eyes that Wendy Williams' world, health and marriage came crashing down around her.
Although her decisions & lifestyle choices heavily determined much of the heartache she's enduring at this time in her journey, Prayers up for her healing spiritually primarily bcuz it's unlikely she will heal from what she's dealing with physically or mentally. I send prayers for her family as well who suffers seeing a loved ones life unravels in such a painful and public way. It's also sad that those around her are blinded by some fake form of loyalty instead of admitting the obvious to anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear that mentally as well as physically, it's Crystal clear shes not ok.
May her family remove all these fake ppl from her life and keep her safe as she rides this out. There is no cure for the ailments she has, all they can do is love on her and get her the professional help she needs. Prayers for all involved cause this situation is heartbreaking 💔 It's a hard watch.
The Voice (2011)
But why?
Who has become famous after winning the voice ? No one, Other than the judges, no one makes headlines after winning the voice. At least on American Idol people who have won & even those who've done well but didn't win, found fame & success in their career so if someone knows how to sing and seeks to do this as a career they should immediately by pass the voice and save their audition for the other singing shows. I believe the only true value of The Voice is that those who do get on the show receive valuable coaching that's a once in a lifetime opportunity but no one comes on the voice for coaching primarily, they audition in hopes of winning., & sadly that's where the journey ends.

Creepy good But...
I hate when a great show begins, then the powers that be cancel it and leaves the faithful viewers wondering what it was all about because it's not continued long enuf to wrap up the story and tie up the loose ends. I'm afraid to get too invested because I see this coming to the same inevitable ending. If you want your noodle in a twist, watch this show, great writing, better acting, confusion and mystery at every turn leaving your head spinning at the close of every episode. Hopefully this is one crazy story that will be given a proper finale when it's time. All of it, where are they, how they got stuck in this creepy town with no way out and WTF are those things trying to kill them.
