Netflix deep dive

Marianne

Not going to lie, I didn’t make it past the second episode. Not because the show isn’t good, it’s great, but rather, because it is so good at jump scares and anxiety-inducing chills, that I had to stop watching in the evening, after an exceedingly frightful scene.

It’s French. It’s scary. I recommend it without having finished it.

–Catherine McDonald

Ed. Note: I have watched the whole thing; it’s scary and funny and wonderful and I can not recommend it enough.
