I’m excited to share my essay on #SabrinaCarpenter ❤️✨
“Carpenter’s vision of womanhood isn’t swaddled in sepia toned sadness; it’s covered in bright pink confetti.”

Shared this podcast I did with @NotoriousREL and @gbullard with my modern media students and a few actually listened and liked! We discuss generational differences, nostalgia, and pedagogy. Also: how delightfully weird the TMNTs were! watchingtogetheralone.com/p/…

My latest essay! On #TheBear and the emotional power of the 30-minute dramedy:
“The best episodes of The Bear unfold so naturally that they feel entirely unscripted. You forget that you are watching TV at all.”

I, too, am very excited for the return of #TheBear! It’s one of the more recent shows I’ve watched that surprised me, moved me & left me thinking. I agree with @NotoriousREL about the “power of quiet storytelling.”
I’m so excited for S3 of #TheBear ✨ I wrote about the S2’s quiet and emotionally powerful “Honeydew” episode and why I think viewers are captivated by TV that requires close attention to subtle detail: watchingtogetheralone.com/p/…
