Five friends said they binge watched
Shtisel whole nine hours they couldn’t wait
and I who am not much of a binger although
I should be given my thousands of obsessions
finally watched Show 1 Season 3
wishI knew how to say why I
as well as millions of people
totally love that show even though there is
always an even though
(Hasidim! No politics! Israel!).
My childhood for instance was
absolutely Nothing Like That .
Maybe the reason is simple
Shtisel is people
and funny and love
Of course I shared it. Emilie and I binged it and now we speak in Hebrew. La ve & Kol tuk ( not sure about the spelling) !
more than halfway through.one episode nighty. two on Sunday. shtisle is. the perfect yin yang of heartbreak & profound beauty. it is an experience that is powerful. so powerful that while viewing, it OWNS me.
