Drama Stage 2020: Blackout

 

This one I will honestly don't describe (in detail) because the crime intrigue is very nice and people should rather watch for themselves. This episode's main topic is greed, I think. And how it corrupts.

In this episode we had the last look at the Nsefu lion pride. And we learned that teenagers are dumb and reckless regardless of species. And some die because of that. We also learned that a male lion, having all the females in his pride, is having something on the side going on. Men...

Hidden Australia (2020)

 

No spiders, so I believe it was about Australia from the alternative universe. Because, seriously, no spiders?

But there will be birds, because, apparently, Australia is a bird paradise.

Drama Stage 2020: My Husband Has Kim Hee-Seon

The previous episodes, sans nr 5, were much heavier in themes they explored, however this one is perhaps as relevant to people in any kind of a relationship as it can be. This episode deals with problems that stem from the lack of communication in the marriage.

Africa's Hunters Series 1: The Misfit 4/6 (2015)

 

Today's episode chronicled the struggles of on of the cubs, a runt. Visibly smaller and timid, he was not participating in the siblings' games and making friends.

Drama Stage 2020: Big Data Romance

It was a really cute and sweet episode about finding love, overcoming obstacles on the path to it and if there is a lesson to learn from it is that love appears when we least expect it.

And that dating apps are rubbish.

[First Impression] Train

Now, many plot devices here can be wonky as for now, even though we are in the 1/3rd of the series so far (12 episodes in total), but one thing this series has superior to every other now - the cinematography. The shots, especially at the abandoned train tracks and the station, the transitions and the colors are both eerily beautiful and unsettling.
