Well, it looks like yet another show is going to comment on today’s political climate.
I’m not complaining or anything, how could you avoid doing something like that? Our climate is shown everywhere!

So Orlando Bloom is in a new show on Amazon Prime.
From what I understand it’s about a fairy and a detective solving crimes in a wacky fantasy world.
There’s a bunch of murders and monsters, think Brightburn but in a victorian era setting.
Recently, he talked to the magazine “Flaunt” about it.
And he had some very interesting things to say about the kinds of themes and/or allegories the show would be exploring.
And it’s something that’s not controversial in the least bit: the migrant crisis.
Actually, that sounds very controversial.
Sorry, must’ve gotten my cue cards mixed up.
Anywho, like pretty much every single fantasy show made in the last 20 or so years, there will be comments about race, and immigrants, and so on, and so forth.
He already knows it might not be your thing.
And he says in response :
“It’s either your thing or not. Because some people either love the Victorian period and the fantasy epic element and some just don’t. People loved Game of Thrones and others just never watched it at all. Or, at this point, maybe I’m the only person who didn’t watch it.”
Oi.
