tv review
TV series centered around the human psyche; television shows that feature characters suffering from all forms of mental illness and explore its many implications.
Those who use violence to control violence will eventually be swallowed up by violence
People who advocate violence usually believe in social Darwinism, and the essence of social Darwinism is that the strong eat the weak. The strong have the right to speak and have the power to explain everything. No one cares either. Because the strong eat the weak. Yet socialists also overlook a problem. There is no end to a society where the strong eat the weak, and a person can't stay strong forever either. When a believer is dying, when he is replaced by another more brutal person, no one will stand up to speak for him.

New Egyptian series “who says”; Teen problems and undiscussed mental illness
On May 2,2022 the new Egyptian series “who says” released it’s first episode. Several known Egyptian actors rocked their role in the trailer, making it more watchable. You know how us, as teens, sometimes feel the extreme need to relate to anything, a comfort, even if it’s just a show. But “who says” is not just a show, it’s the life inside us, the unsaid emotions, and the bottled-up words. “It explains our reality, you know, it’s sad” – says a friend of mine.

Euphoria character breakdown
We learn in season 1 that Rue lost her father and only has her mother Leslie and little sister Gia. We also learn that Rue is a 17 year old drug addict who admits she has zero intentions of ever getting clean. I feel that the show has given each character 1 reason for being as significant as they are. Rue’s reason for being such a main character is to see what will be the cause of her actually getting clean, so that being said we are being dragged through the process of seeing her fight to keep drugs in her life. We have already seen the lengths she is willing to go, lying, faking drug tests and stealing. We start off seeing Rue as this quiet, very lowkey person but in reality I think she is this loud and very outgoing person but we aren't being allowed to see it.

Startup & Goliath: Parallel Lines & Mirror Images
I started watching Startup a couple of months ago. I'm not typically a binge-watcher, so progress can be slow! The first series is pretty good, and it did have me hooked, most of the way through. I must admit to being a little disappointed even to find out there was a Series 2, so I didn't go into it with much enthusiasm, and it fell a bit flat for me.

The Exploitative Nature of the Dr. Phil Show
In 2017, Todd Herzog, a former contestant on the reality show Survivor, opened up about his traumatic experience with Dr. Phil. Herzog won Survivor in 2007, earning $1,000,000 in prize money at just 22. After his rise to fame, he began struggling with alcoholism — prompting a visit to the Dr. Phil Show in 2013.

Inside Out: "Here's Negan" Edition
After my last post, I planned on starting this blog off by going back to the beginning of the series TWD and break down each episode about what I learned and how it impacts my life, but after watching Season 10’s season finale, I was anxious and needed to talk about it ASAP! I hope I create new fans of the show with this blog and also gain OG fans who have been following this story from day one. I look forward to discussing TWD with anything I do in life. While I’m teaching, I’ll use an example from an episode to explain something to a student, the best way I know how. While I’m grocery shopping I consider what I need that will be nourishing, quick, and healthy for my daily needs and unexpected changes that life seems to bring. I picture myself as one of the characters or ask myself, what would that character do? One of my favorite characters has always been Negan.

Ozark: Portraying Mental Illness
Ozark season three threw a spanner in the works when a new character with bipolarism was introduced. Minor spoilers ahead. Amidst the Byrd family’s usual antics with the mob, the Snells, and pretty much everyone who’s wanted to kill Marty at some point, a new character is introduced: Wendy’s brother Ben. In the beginning, it seems like he’s been thrown in the mix to add another character and some minor plot points but as time goes on it’s revealed that he’s one of the most notable characters of the season.
