Life emulates movies emulates life emulating movies in this multi-layered reality-bending episode. We watch the film I Saw the TV Glow, in which two characters get deeply absorbed into a TV show, and it starts to spill over into their lives, leaving questions about what is real.
For the episode, we also watched two TV episodes and wove together themes and resonances from them all, including disconnection, connection, and what feels most real to us.
(TV episodes: Season 3, Episode 1 of The White Lotus and the Euphoria Special Episode, ‘Trouble Don’t Last Always’)
