Transatlantic
Where to watch: Netflix
Let’s start this week with a miniseries about fighting unjust oppression!
Transatlantic is a new show about the Emergency Rescue Committee. That was a resistance group aligned with the French Resistance that attempted to help people escape from Nazi-occupied France. It was created in part by Varian Fry (played by Cory Michael Smith from Gotham), an American journalist living in France. The show takes a multi-pronged approach to the resistance, showing numerous perspectives on the incredible pains it took for anyone to flee the Nazis. This show also stars Gillian Jacobs (from Community), Corey Stoll (from Ant-Man), and Moritz Bleibtreu (from Run Lola Run).

Beef
Where to watch: Netflix
Now, let’s take a look at some revenge!
Beef stars Ali Wong (from Always Be My Maybe) and Steven Yeun (from Invincible) as two people struggling in their lives. She’s an unhappy housewife struggling with depression, and he’s a contractor struggling financially. One day, the two encounter each other in an incident of road rage. This spirals into an ongoing beef between them, one that turns brutal and just plain mean. Strangely enough, the two seem to find fulfillment in their beef with each other. This show also features Joseph Lee (from Searching), Ashley Park (from Emily in Paris), and Justin H. Min (from After Yang).

Tiny Beautiful Things is based on a book by Cheryl Strayed. The show stars Kathryn Hahn (from Glass Onion and WandaVision) as a middle-aged married woman with a teenage daughter. Her husband wants to split up, she has a tense relationship with her daughter, and she’s not sure what she wants to do with the rest of her life. After a friend invites her to start writing an advice column, she also begins writing letters to her 22 year old self to figure out how to get her life back on track. A lot of this involves discussing her relationship with her deceased mother (played by Merritt Wever from Run).
