CAVEAT: If it’s not on this list, either it wasn’t technically a live action drama (Enlightened, Fleabag), or made in the last 20 years, or I saw it and didn’t like it (American Horror Story, Buffy, Weeds, Killing Eve, Horace & Pete, etc etc), or I didn’t see it.
Forgot: THE KNICK.

In honor of PARASITE taking the ultimate filmmaking prize (hooray!), here's a thread of some of my favorite Korean films for those of you who asked, and are looking to delve a little deeper into Korean cinema:
Gotta start with one of my favorite movies of all time, Kim Jee-woon's I SAW THE DEVIL. A brutally tense/weird cat & mouse between a cop and a killer. One of the few revenge tales that truly attempts to show just how hollow "an eye for eye" leaves us.
2018's BURNING. A sensual, disquieting, and ultimately shattering portrayal of class warfare and societal ennui that explodes into violence. (sound familiar?)

Something I love about my job that I don’t talk about much is the letters we get from inmates. You’d be surprised how many letters we get from folks that are locked up, telling us that Toonami is one of the only things that gets them through their week.
One of the reasons I wanted a job in media was to be able to provide people a respite/escape, however fleeting, from the problems we all face in this dark, cold world.
It’s nice to know that even those who are truly behind the 8-Ball can get something out of what we do, and it reminds me how lucky and privileged I am to be able to do what I do for a living. Knowing it helps some people gives even the “meaningless” work, meaning.
