In the show's gentler episodes, it allows people to explore love and connection in new ways, across what we now believe to be barriers — like mortality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But very often, the moral of the story, so to speak, is that we are worse than we believe we are, only because our behavior is constrained by what we can do, not what we are willing to do. For instance, we may believe that we do not spy on our loved ones because we have developed trust, when in fact, we do not spy on our loved ones because it's too difficult to do reliably without getting caught. With great power comes great responsibility — you've heard that from the story of a man who can climb buildings and shoot webs out of his wrists, right? Well, \u003cem>Black Mirror \u003c/em>spends much of its time considering what happens when more of us have great power, given that we have no reason to believe we are prone to exercise great responsibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Power is the theme of \"USS Callister,\" written by Brooker and William Bridges. It's the most incisive piece of the six-episode fourth season that just dropped on Netflix. It begins as a straightforward parody — almost too precise a copy to be a parody, in fact — of the original \u003cem>Star Tre\u003c/em>\u003cem>k.\u003c/em> The Kirk-esque captain of \u003cem>Space Fleet\u003c/em> is played by Jesse Plemons, the versatile and very busy actor who first became well-known playing Landry on \u003cem>Friday Night Lights\u003c/em>. Actors playing members of the crew include Michaela Coel, so delightful in her own series \u003cem>Chewing Gum\u003c/em>, and Jimmi Simpson, who has \"smug weasel\" written all over him from the first minute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only does the episode examine the way the captain uses power (which is of particular interest given recent conversations about sexual harassment), but it goes on to a deeper exploration of how pop-culture portrayals of power affect and infect the people who absorb them. Cristin Milioti, as a new member of the crew, has to navigate — as it were — the captain's particular powers and his methods of ensuring compliance. It's a frightening and fearless examination of not one but two separate hero myths: the flawless captain of adventure and the bullied fan who lives vicariously through his exploits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While \"USS Callister\" is the most timely and vital of the new episodes, \"Hang The DJ\" (named after a line in a song by The Smiths) is the freshest and the most humane. Georgina Campbell and Joe Cole, both enchanting British actors many American viewers may be seeing for the first time, play a couple meeting on a new dating app that upsets expectations about what you can and cannot know about a person you've just met. Not in the \"Google the person and find out all about their criminal record\" sense, but in ways more complicated and interesting. \"Black Mirror\" hasn't really done much in the way of romantic comedy, but the scenes between Campbell and Cole sparkle and build emotional stakes in the way all great examples of the genre do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other four episodes are solid. \"Arkangel\" returns to the show's fixation on surveillance, \"Metalhead\" to mechanical horrors, \"Black Museum\" on the fundamentals of mind-reading and mind-swapping, and \"Crocodile\" about memory. There are no duds, but \"USS Callister\" and \"Hang the DJ\" best demonstrate what the show, at its best, can do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Well, \u003cem>Black Mirror \u003c/em>spends much of its time considering what happens when more of us have great power, given that we have no reason to believe we are prone to exercise great responsibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Power is the theme of \"USS Callister,\" written by Brooker and William Bridges. It's the most incisive piece of the six-episode fourth season that just dropped on Netflix. It begins as a straightforward parody — almost too precise a copy to be a parody, in fact — of the original \u003cem>Star Tre\u003c/em>\u003cem>k.\u003c/em> The Kirk-esque captain of \u003cem>Space Fleet\u003c/em> is played by Jesse Plemons, the versatile and very busy actor who first became well-known playing Landry on \u003cem>Friday Night Lights\u003c/em>. Actors playing members of the crew include Michaela Coel, so delightful in her own series \u003cem>Chewing Gum\u003c/em>, and Jimmi Simpson, who has \"smug weasel\" written all over him from the first minute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only does the episode examine the way the captain uses power (which is of particular interest given recent conversations about sexual harassment), but it goes on to a deeper exploration of how pop-culture portrayals of power affect and infect the people who absorb them. Cristin Milioti, as a new member of the crew, has to navigate — as it were — the captain's particular powers and his methods of ensuring compliance. It's a frightening and fearless examination of not one but two separate hero myths: the flawless captain of adventure and the bullied fan who lives vicariously through his exploits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While \"USS Callister\" is the most timely and vital of the new episodes, \"Hang The DJ\" (named after a line in a song by The Smiths) is the freshest and the most humane. Georgina Campbell and Joe Cole, both enchanting British actors many American viewers may be seeing for the first time, play a couple meeting on a new dating app that upsets expectations about what you can and cannot know about a person you've just met. Not in the \"Google the person and find out all about their criminal record\" sense, but in ways more complicated and interesting. \"Black Mirror\" hasn't really done much in the way of romantic comedy, but the scenes between Campbell and Cole sparkle and build emotional stakes in the way all great examples of the genre do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other four episodes are solid. \"Arkangel\" returns to the show's fixation on surveillance, \"Metalhead\" to mechanical horrors, \"Black Museum\" on the fundamentals of mind-reading and mind-swapping, and \"Crocodile\" about memory. There are no duds, but \"USS Callister\" and \"Hang the DJ\" best demonstrate what the show, at its best, can do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Kieren’s zombie-ism is part of his identity, but so is his depression. He may have risen from the dead, but the first season is about learning to \u003ci>choose\u003c/i> the life he once purposefully ended. It’s about learning to live again, despite everything that's been lost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Slings and Arrows\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>If you like your TV heavy on the Shakespearean themes...\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/I0uVGCYRP4I\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Slings and Arrows \u003c/i>proves that you don’t have to be a serious drama to explore mental illness well. This wacky, wonderful Canadian show about a struggling theater festival in fictional New Burbage follows the production of a different Shakespearean tragedy every season, using the play’s themes to shape the show’s behind-the-scenes action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first season uses \u003ci>Hamlet \u003c/i>for inspiration, exploring its central theme of madness through the emotional journey of protagonist Geoffrey Tennant. Seven years after suffering a nervous breakdown on stage while playing Hamlet, Geoffrey is back at the New Burbage Festival as creative director. With the help of his estranged mentor (who happens to be a ghost) and ex-fiance, Geoffrey attempts to get the festival back on track, without losing the semblance of sanity he’s managed to reclaim over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ci>Slings and Arrows\u003c/i>, Geoffrey’s mental illness isn’t treated as unusual or as something he should be ashamed of. That’s not to say that other characters don’t try to shame him or that it is never an obstacle to his relationships and work, but Geoffrey is a compelling, competent, and caring character \u003ci>in addition\u003c/i> to his mental illness -- not \u003ci>in spite\u003c/i> of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like \u003ci>In the Flesh\u003c/i>, \u003ci>Slings and Arrows \u003c/i>has at its heart this question of whether existence itself is worth it when life is filled with sadness and pain.

Though mental health is not a major theme in the series, watching this show is truly a cathartic experience. If you’re in the mood to cry -- happy tears and sad, and about something other than your life -- then this is the show for you. In the process, you will be taken through nuanced, intimate, and compelling explorations of complex topics like classism, racism, sexism, and ableism that rarely feel heavy-handed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Friday Night Lights \u003c/i>does make a notable exploration of mental illness in Season 1 with the character of Waverly Grady. The clever, independent, and opinionated daughter of a local reverend, Waverly is a love interest for one of the central characters and also happens to be bipolar.

Yes, when used as a way to neglect relationships and responsibilities, TV \u003ci>can\u003c/i> be a correlative anchor for depression, but it doesn’t have to be -- or, at least, that’s not \u003ci>all \u003c/i>it might be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to acting as a lifeline for the depressed, TV has the power to change the way we think about mental illness -- both in ourselves and in others. In many ways, it is the most intimate of mediums, coming into our homes week after week and becoming part of the sustained cultural conversation we have with our friends and family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Serialized television in particular allows for a more complex, nuanced exploration of character and theme.

It follows Kieren Walker, a teenaged zombie who is now medicated and therefore deemed ready to return to his hometown in rural England. Unfortunately, the fictional village of Roarton is not ready for him. The Human Volunteer Force still patrols the woods for zombies, shooting first and asking questions later. This town wears its prejudice against Partial Death Syndrome (PDS) sufferers as a badge of honor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>In the Flesh \u003c/i>is interesting because it explores mental illness not only through the eyes of a main character who is depressed, but uses zombie-ism as a metaphor to explore the stigma against mental illness (amongst other prejudices). Kieren’s zombie-ism is part of his identity, but so is his depression. He may have risen from the dead, but the first season is about learning to \u003ci>choose\u003c/i> the life he once purposefully ended. It’s about learning to live again, despite everything that's been lost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Slings and Arrows\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>If you like your TV heavy on the Shakespearean themes...\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/I0uVGCYRP4I'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/I0uVGCYRP4I'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003ci>Slings and Arrows \u003c/i>proves that you don’t have to be a serious drama to explore mental illness well. This wacky, wonderful Canadian show about a struggling theater festival in fictional New Burbage follows the production of a different Shakespearean tragedy every season, using the play’s themes to shape the show’s behind-the-scenes action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first season uses \u003ci>Hamlet \u003c/i>for inspiration, exploring its central theme of madness through the emotional journey of protagonist Geoffrey Tennant. Seven years after suffering a nervous breakdown on stage while playing Hamlet, Geoffrey is back at the New Burbage Festival as creative director. With the help of his estranged mentor (who happens to be a ghost) and ex-fiance, Geoffrey attempts to get the festival back on track, without losing the semblance of sanity he’s managed to reclaim over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ci>Slings and Arrows\u003c/i>, Geoffrey’s mental illness isn’t treated as unusual or as something he should be ashamed of. That’s not to say that other characters don’t try to shame him or that it is never an obstacle to his relationships and work, but Geoffrey is a compelling, competent, and caring character \u003ci>in addition\u003c/i> to his mental illness -- not \u003ci>in spite\u003c/i> of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like \u003ci>In the Flesh\u003c/i>, \u003ci>Slings and Arrows \u003c/i>has at its heart this question of whether existence itself is worth it when life is filled with sadness and pain. Unlike the former, it never seems to stray too far from the answer that life is wonderful, confusing madness, and it is worth every performance we make.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Friday Night Lights\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>If you’re looking for cathartic comfort...\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/AG37AylK1_s'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/AG37AylK1_s'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>If you are one of the people who has dismissed \u003ci>Friday Night Lights \u003c/i>as a viable viewing option because it’s “just a show about high school football,” think again. This community-based drama is a critical, yet optimistic look at what it is to live in contemporary small town America and is akin in quality to the best “prestige” dramas of the last decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Set in the fictional Dillon, Texas, it uses the family of Coach Eric Taylor as its focal point, but it is an ensemble drama involving a diverse cast of characters. Though mental health is not a major theme in the series, watching this show is truly a cathartic experience. If you’re in the mood to cry -- happy tears and sad, and about something other than your life -- then this is the show for you. In the process, you will be taken through nuanced, intimate, and compelling explorations of complex topics like classism, racism, sexism, and ableism that rarely feel heavy-handed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Friday Night Lights \u003c/i>does make a notable exploration of mental illness in Season 1 with the character of Waverly Grady. The clever, independent, and opinionated daughter of a local reverend, Waverly is a love interest for one of the central characters and also happens to be bipolar.

And then, in the face of frightened contributors who are way out of their comfort zone, “That’s a \u003cem>really\u003c/em> heavy sigh. What’s up with that?” Ted talked to them about what they wanted and what they were scared of, not just with regard to their week in New York choosing a new wardrobe, but in their real lives back home. “How long have you had your hair like this?” might seem like it’s about, you know, \u003cem>how long have you had your hair like this?\u003c/em>, but with Ted kneeling down and looking just past the contributor’s shoulder, both of them talking into the mirror, it winds up being about the contributor’s life, her self-esteem, her sense of self worth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>What Not To Wear\u003c/em> did not live up to its title, which implies judgment and critique and correction. \u003cem>What Not To Wear\u003c/em> asked questions, listened, and searched for a contributor’s truth.

Welcome to beauty bootcamp.” It’s about fitting Cortney into a mold, instead of teaching Cortney how to find her own beauty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/gULZZ4ZZ8a4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another episode, the girlfriends tell Sam, a newlywed who loves fantasy role-playing, that they are “going to take you away from the dungeon and the dragons and stuff like that, and help you get comfortable, help you feel good in your own skin.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Look, Stacy and Clinton would make jokes at their contributors’ expense. One of that show’s recurring bits involved literally throwing a contributor’s old wardrobe into a garbage can. But one of the show’s fashion rules was that, “You can show off your personality without looking crazy.” They would have tried to teach Sam that she could love what she loved \u003cem>without\u003c/em> dressing like a teenager.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Girlfriend Intervention’s\u003c/em> Tracy, Nikki, Tiffiny, and Tanisha offer a one-size-fits-all approach that is the equivalent of passing someone on the street and telling them to “smile more.” Stacy and Clinton might make fun of your mom jeans (okay, they will definitely make fun of your mom jeans), but then they’ll pour you a cocktail, take you out to dinner, and ask you about your childhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stacy and Clinton (along with makeup artist Carmindy and angel-among-men Ted) guided the makeover process, but they didn’t control it.

One of that show’s recurring bits involved literally throwing a contributor’s old wardrobe into a garbage can.
