This Week’s Binge 9.25.20

Along with my binge this week I watched the 72nd Emmy Awards, check out the recap for highlights.

Watch | Series

Ratched

Netflix

Ratched is based on a character from the movie One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (I guess since the movie is based on a book it’s technically a character from the book, but I’ve only seen the movie so I consider it that).  The movie is set in a psychological hospital and revolves around the patients and staff who work there.  I would say the same about the series Ratched.

Co-created and developed by Ryan Murphy, it has his typical vibe.  Think American Horror Story, but a lighter version (if you can say that about a psychological thriller).  He has put out non-stop content since Covid started – The Politician Season 2, Hollywood, and now this.  Does this man ever rest?!?

Not sure if there will be a season 2, but I’d like to see one.

The Vow

HBO

The Vow is a docuseries on the self-improvement group NXIVM.  I had heard about this group recently in the media, but very vague…something like some random actress is part of a sex cult…at least that what I remember was the gist of what I heard.

An interesting look at behind the scenes.  Different from Going Clear, the Scientology documentary, The Vow is shedding light that is somewhat recent, that I don’t feel like we know a lot about.  I won’t give spoilers, but I think it’s currently in the midst of some sort of litigation, so I’m doing my best to avoid any sort of news on the internet until the series is over.
