A show that expresses my thoughts and feelings about racism and settler colonialism is the HBO limited Series Exterminate All the Brutes by Raoul Peck, the director of the terrific documentary about James Baldwin I Am Not Your Negro.

Ooh... Good topic.

Orange is the New Black. (Obviously. Apart from the stupid season with the kickball and the rivalry with"Badison".)
Feel good. (If you've not seen it it's a beautiful series and would be relatable to many people here.)
Kleo. (Netflix, German language set at the end of the cold war.)
Derry girls (hilarious)
Russian doll. (Natasha Lyonne is her gloriously messed up self. I love her style in this too and it's a great story.)
Blackadder. (All of the seasons, even season one. Some of the best comedy writing ever.)
Taskmaster. (I think there are loads of worldwide versions now but the original UK one; Greg Davies is one of the few men who will still get me feeling horny lol. It's the power play thing!)
This way up. (Because comedy is the best way to deal with mental health.)
So confused.

How did I forget Wednesday which was fantastic and Tiny Beautiful Things? The latter is part of Hello Sunshine's output (on Disney+ in the UK). I bloody love what Reese Witherspoon is doing with her company.
So confused.
