Hi moans!

Thank you for all your suggestions on the other thread for what you want me to experience for the first time and talk about. As I was gathering options, I was thinking it makes the most sense to do multiple of these with different types of media, so we're starting with TV shows and if people dig the audio we'll do album and film seperately.

I tried to pick shows that came from the most liked comments, so hopefully these options are beloved to multiple people OR you're at least curious about watching one for the first time with me! I think for this audio I'll watch either the first 2-3 episodes, or maybe include an important/notable episode from later in the show, if that works for the show. Let me know what you think and what episode I should watch! I think the audio will probably come out on Monday, so I can focus on the NSFW one this week.

Here's some loglines if you're not familiar. If you don't want to know anything about the shows before going in, don't read below!!

1. Fleabag (BBC/Amazon): A dry-witted woman, known only as Fleabag, has no filter as she navigates life and love in London while trying to cope with tragedy.

2. The Bear (FX): A young chef from the fine dining world comes home to Chicago to run his family sandwich shop after a heartbreaking death in his family.

3. Orphan Black (Space): A streetwise hustler is pulled into a compelling conspiracy after witnessing the death of a girl who looks just like her.

4. Atlanta (FX): Created by and starring Donald Glover, Earn and his cousin Alfred, based in Atlanta, try to make their way in the world through the rap scene.

I have seen the first episode of Fleabag already and clips/scenes from the other three, but haven't seen episodes of them at all. Happy voting!

!!EDIT!!: Poll closed!! As recommended, I will be watching the entire second season of Fleabag, since it's only 150 mins total. If you don't have time for that, I expect to be specifically discussing episodes 4, 5 and 6, since those are the apparently the most notable. Would love if you joined me so we can all discuss!
