I May Destroy You feels like something that could be happening outside your front door. The further I get from that show the thing that I’m most blown away by isn’t the shows willingness to tussle with every hot button issue, which is just a reductive way to call hugely important things in our life and our society. It’s both the way it engages with them and the deeply human, moral, and thoughtful way it addressed all of them. It wasn’t reactionary in any way. And it’s interesting how the space you watch a show in can invigorate a show with superpowers; alive with an electricity that it didn’t even dream of when it was created.
