Flowers - Netflix

Anyone watch this unique British show? I am not sure why it came up out of nowhere on my suggestions, but I'm loving it. Dark comedy and very twisted. I love the Japanese characterr, Shun. There is a very touching scene in one episode where he talks about his family. Episodes are 30 minutes, two seasons. I highly recommend it, be brave and watch at least 3 episodes.

Peace

I liked the first series more. The second series was a bit more weird and harder to watch. The final episode was beautiful. It was like so much darkness and then light and sweetness.

I didn't realize that the actor who played "Shun", Will Sharpe wrote/directed/produced the show.

The actor that played "Maurice", Julian Barratt reminded me of Liam Neeson. Olivia Colman was great as always.

And then there’s the acting. Also, it keeps getting better.
