That’s right, weeeee’re back!!! Though we’re not naive enough to think of a new year as a cure-all, we are almost certainly going to be getting new Succession in 2021, which just automatically makes this year better than the one that came before. Also Hannah’s bebe was born, and no offense to other people’s babies, but hers is pretty much objectively the best, so that’s another strong mark in 2021’s favor!
Can you believe our newsletter is two years old now????? Thanks to all of you who have been here since the beginning and our newbies—truly it cannot be said enough how much it warms our hearts when you express your appreciation or share us with a pal, and we wish you all a better year ahead.
For February 2021, we’ll be discussing a topic very close to both of our hearts containing a LOT of rich yelling material:
TEENAGE BOUNTY HUNTERS!!!!!!!
This one-season wonder from Netflix has already been UNJUSTLY canceled and we have THINGS TO SAY ABOUT IT!!!
This absolute gem of a show is simultaneously a goofy, hilarious play on a bonkers premise (teenage twins accidentally becoming bounty hunters) AND an incredibly thoughtful, nuanced exploration of coming of age as an evangelical teen trying to unlearn purity culture and navigating spiritual uncertainty and identity???
Not only that, but [LOOK AWAY IF YOU DON´T WANT SPOILERS UNLESS KNOWING THERE’S GONNA BE GAY CONTENT IS THE KIND OF HELPFUL SPOILER YOU NEED] it’s also the Rory/Paris slash fic we’ve always deserved?????
[okay you can look back now!]
Please join us so that you can be as enraged as we are about the cancellation of this frickin’ fantastic show and maybe also write many letters to Netflix demanding justice.
See you soon!
Hannah & Kels
p.s. this preview was written before all of Texas really Went Through It due to the weather/incompetent governance/corporations controlling what should be public utilities, so you might not be getting the full newsletter in exactly February, but that should give you more time to watch this perfect show and join the campaign for its uncancellation!!
The show is pretty good, but it’s cancellation is pretty enraging, like we don’t know if Blair’s going to understand that it wasn’t all Sterlings fault for hiding stuff like keeping her relationship with April a secret & for not being there for Blair’s date/job, I don’t blame it on Sterling, Blair was the one who took it too far. Plus they’re started to recoil a bit in the end, I hope they don’t keep that “Just don’t hide stuff” a twin swear or a strict rule. I hope they sort things out if we get a season 2.
