Pattie was a little light this week but Bill has enough to fill in the blanks. Documentaries, cop shows, holiday fare, and an Oscar worthy film are all in store.
And, if you have seen the series The Glory on Netflix and have been wondering if school bullying is as bad as that series makes it look, Pattie found a YouTuber who tells the stories of bullying that inspired the series. She's Rotten Mango, and her episode 2006 Cheongju Curling Iron Case - Real Story Behind The Glory is a really informative report.
