Atypical - Season 4 Review

Atypical is back, and with it, Sam’s adventures. It is time for Sam to move forward, have his own place, and all the responsibilities that come with it. Is he ready?

How will Sam face adult life challenges?

Having a roommate

Like many other young adults, Sam is moving with a roommate. Who could be better for this job than his best friend, Zahid?

Things aren’t easy. They do everything for each other but living under the same roof is something else. It requires adaptation.

What’s my path?

Sam faces, as we all do, the inevitable choice of the path to take. What am I good at? What’s the path I should follow? What’s the right choice? Those questions are tough to answer, but Sam is fortunate. He knows what he wants. The problem is: how to achieve it?

I especially like that perspective because it’s so realistic. It is hard to find out what you want and need, and once you know it… What’s the next step? Nothing is given to Sam, and he teaches us a good lesson: how to fight for your goals, how to persevere, and don’t give up.

Autism’s impact on the family

Since episode one, this has been a constant topic on the show. As well as any other mother, Elsa fights with herself. She struggles with her overwhelming protective feelings to let him grow. She wants him to be independent, but she is also worried. Sam always needed her, and no matter how proud she is of him, it hurts that she’s no longer a priority in his life.

This has been a recurrent topic on the show. Yet, this season showed a different perspective on how Sam’s autism impacts the family. His sister, Casey, is struggling with anxiety and depression, and no one truly noticed for a long time.

It is not like Elsa and Doug were bad parents. At all. When you have a “problematic” son, other issues may happen around you without you noticing. It is a real problem many parents struggle with.

Step by Step

The show continues with its premise. It explores Sam’s growth and maturing process while dealing with the fact that he is different and how that impacts everyone around him.

It is a great quality show, and it has been able to keep both the quality and interest of the story.

I loved the ending chose for Sam - a happy ending.

Young Sheldon – A Heartfelt and Hilarious Journey

Young Sheldon is a delightful surprise, blending humor, heart, and a touch of nostalgia. As a prequel to The Big Bang Theory , the show offers insight into the childhood of Sheldon Cooper, one of the most iconic characters in modern TV. A Show That Grows Beyond Sheldon While you may start watching due to curiosity about Sheldon's early years, it soon becomes clear that this is not just about his childhood. The show includes an incredible variety of characters with their own charm and depth. Mary (Sheldon's religious yet compassionate mother), George (his often misunderstood father), and his siblings, Missy and Georgie, are all given their own moments to shine. The cast and their chemistry make this show stand out. You start to care about each character's struggles and triumphs. This show quickly stands on its own as a heartfelt, family-driven sitcom. Especially in its last seasons, the show becomes a touching portrayal of small-town life, family dynamics, and persona...

Emily in Paris 3: The Good, the Bad, and the Unrealistic

The third season of Emily in Paris got a lot of hate and love among the viewers. People can’t decide if it was the best season or the worst of all. And I understand why. We start the season with Emily’s life in perfect chaos, and she doesn’t seem to know what she wants. She never does… Is this good for the plot? Maybe. Is this annoying? Sometimes. So… why can’t we stop watching it? Are you feeling frustrated? Me too. She doesn’t know what she wants. She can’t make a decision, not in her love life, not in her job… And it is not because she wants it all. She is not mature enough to say no and own her decision and its consequences. Emily comes across as a spoiled little girl. The problem is that she is the main character, yet, Mindy starts to feel way more interesting than her. Also, any other character on the show is funnier than Emily, namely her co-workers, who apparently are very bad at their jobs and need her to save them with every single client… How did they keep the company...

Gender, Power, and Cigarettes: Why 'Mad Men' Still Resonates

Mad Men is a masterpiece of television that blends sharp storytelling with striking period detail, offering a reflective glimpse into the 1960s. The series follows Don Draper and the high-stakes world of Madison Avenue advertising, all while painting a vivid picture of the era's societal norms, especially the rampant sexism and rigid gender roles. It's both mesmerizing and infuriating, particularly in its honest depiction of how women were treated. Strong Emotions The show’s brilliance lies in its ability to evoke strong emotions—its subtlety, exceptional writing, and rich characters draw you into a world that feels both foreign and disturbingly recent. The meticulously crafted period aesthetics are complemented by historical undercurrents, from civil rights to cultural shifts, which remain integral yet never overshadow the deeply personal dramas of the characters. Wait For the Impact Mad Men doesn’t rely on flashy plot twists; instead, it uses nuanced storyte...
