I’ve been watching the series “Years and Years” on HBO. It is chilling.
Set in a near future England, the series follows members of the Lyons family as they navigate the trials and tribulations of a world gone mad. Emma Thompson plays a maverick, trump-style politician whose “England first” stance takes hold in the aftermath of a nuclear attack on China.
I was hesitant to begin watching “Years and Years” because I feared it would depress me even more than trump’s presidency already has, but in a weird way, the series gives me hope. My takeaway? Humans find a way to adapt and survive. We’ve battled vermin before, and we will continue to find ways to overcome.
Anyone else out there watching this HBO series? I need to discuss it with someone.
Peace, people!
Praying for Eyebrowz 
it is on my “to do” list.

I just noticed it is HBO. Will need to wait until the series is released to Netflix.

I love Emma Thompson, so I’m adding this to my list. We don’t get HBO, but I’m sure it’ll be available on DVD from the library at some future point. Thanks! – Marty

I’d never seen it advertised, but a friend was watching and encouraged me to, as well.

Thanks for the tip! We still have HBO after subscribing to it “temporarily” to watch Game of Thrones. Love Emma Thompson!
