There are certain shows that carry a huge emotional baggage as we all do at times and that’s why they become so relatable for most of us. Our recommendation for today is one such show called ‘Afterlife’ on Netflix.
A black comedy drama created, written, executive produced, and directed by Ricky Gervais, ‘Afterlife’ follows a newspaper writer who struggles to come to terms with his wife’s death. He contemplates suicide, but instead decides adopt a gruff new persona in an effort to push away those trying to help.
‘Afterlife’ has received praise for exploring the emotional complexity of coping with loss, guilt, and the desire to find meaning in life. Despite being raw and emotional it very well balances humour with moments of heartbreak.
There are three seasons of ‘Afterlife’ and all are currently streaming on Netflix. If you are looking for something deep, emotional yet not too dark, ‘Afterlife’ can be your perfect pick for the weekend.
