In this award-winning four-season Netflix original, the Byrd family must strategically meet a Mexican drug cartel's intense demands, no matter what—or who—it costs.
This slow-burn, high-stakes, drama-thriller is one of our personal favorite shows, and for good reason. In this episode we dive into the many Biblical themes seen in Ozark, our view on language in film, the power of subtle acting, and why we would place this series at the top of your (cinema)queue.
The Netflix original that loves to boast of it's 14million-views, Bridgerton is the pop-cultural mishmash of a sensual period piece. For some addicted fans, they are hooked and the spin-offs have them just as engaged. But for others, the series' painfully thin plot and male-fantasy erotica was (ironically) the biggest turnoff.
But what do you say? Should Christians (or anyone) watch Bridgerton?
