InTheCloset 15,655 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 so i have started watching the limited series 'Maid' on netflix. and it is really good. the way it puts into perspective struggles that people in different fields and phases of life have. i have watched 5 episodes. i really like how they have brought light to topics like emotional abuse and emotional violence as a form of domestic abuse, and how in episode 5 (spoiler) generational domestic violence is also discussed. the cast is really great, their acting is stellar. the lead actress Margaret Qualley has done a fantastic job and her actual mom Andie MacDowell plays her mom in the series too. Margaret's has really brought out the emotions of a struggling mom. i cant wait to watch the rest of it but right now i need to sleep cause its 3 am and i have to get up for college at 6:30 but you all should really watch it, its definitely worth it its based on the memoir Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive by Stephanie Land. i'll definitely be reading that too.  The abyss stares back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent finished it so i cant tell u if it ends joyfully. Would update u on it tomorrow. But so far it has that sadness and real life feelings along with joy and love in small things that we miss The abyss stares back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like so much of our entertainment lately is sad, depressing, negative. I already feel sad enough on my own, I need some lightness! A show I really enjoyed recently was Nine Perfect Strangers on Hulu. It had dark elements, but overall it was a story of healing and I found it refreshing.

It helps me gain a wider perspective of my own problems as well and for the time takes my mind off of my own sadness. And i relate to it more The abyss stares back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
