It kind of reminds me of The White Shadow, only with philosophy in place of basketball.
That is an intriguing description!
You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ok, why did no one tell me about Severance?
I TRIED!!

NOT HARD ENOUGH
Clearly
Although I think you get the credit that I eventually did check it out, so if you are just going to blame me for my own procrastination I don't know how I can deflect that. Dammit.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Hec and I are just getting started on Severance, and we +Matilda bolted through the first four episodes of Heartstopper last night and are all super-smitten.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I'm a huge fan of the webcomic, but the format of a comic is really constraining, so I love that the show has allowed room for characters other than Nick and Charlie to be more fully fleshed out. Elle (my perfect precious angel baby), Tao, Tara, and Darcy are really great.
I love that the show cast actors who are closer to high-school age (mostly 18 and 19, I think) and actually look and act like kids in high school, as opposed to Riverdale, or 90210 back in the day. Plus they were really committed to representation and the casting call for Elle specified a trans actor, and (I think) for Tao the casting call specified an Asian actor.
I'm also amused that the show apparently adhered to the unwritten rule that British shows must have Olivia Colman.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Oliver was in his English class today, and they were making a list of things that were good in the world (after making a list of things that sucked). The first on Oliver's list: "The inherent homosexuality in pirates, cowboys, and vampires."

Taika Waititi just needs to film something about cowboys for the trifecta.
