Move to heaven1/10/2024 Add on top of that an incredibly nosey and overprotective neighbor, and you (as a viewer) have a highly enjoyable trio to follow. These are two very isolated men, with very distinctive personalities, who are attempting to live together for the first time. The leading male has Asperger’s Syndrome and his uncle has just gotten out of prison for illegal fighting. We have the lovable characters of the main cast. To balance out this rather dark topic of death cleaning, we have the beautiful stories of the deceased which are brought to light as the crew digs through their belongings. Anyways, I suppose viewer discretion should be advised. My mother would have been disturbed by some of the scenes in this show – but she doesn’t watch television except on rare occasions and hasn’t been as desensitized by the media as most general audiences are. This is also the case with any violence in the show – and there is some violence as well. Anything shown is important to the story telling of the individual episodes. And… other icky things.īut such is life, and death, and this show does not gloss over the nastier aspects of the gig. Just like working in a hospital or a meat processing plant or a nursing home is not for everyone. They both sanitize the spaces, as well as pack up and organize the possessions of the deceased. It revolves around trauma cleaning – which is a specialized service that comes in and cleans up homes in which someone has died. It’s a story about people – a very sentimental one, but also a highly unusual one. There is a little humor, a little mystery, but overall I would call this a standard DRAMA drama. This drama hooked me from the first episode and did not let go until the final credits… and arguably is still holding on to me, cause I am rooting for a second season (and I don’t like multi-season dramas – and hope that their creation and use remains sparse so we can ensure K-dramas maintain their originality and casting shuffles). The cinematography, music, and editing are perfect – and with a tight 10 episode run time, you don’t have to suffer through the dreaded flashbacks upon flashbacks or ridiculously long sequences of, say, staring at someone, that are the plague of so many lengthier dramas. The individual story lines that tie to the deaths are diverse and show the “end” may be different for everyone but every life is valued. The characters are so memorable and fully developed over the series. It’s both heartwarming and heartbreaking. I haven’t cried over a show in a long, long time, ya’ll… but this one hit me hard. And I am extremely glad to be working from home today so I don’t have to see anyone in person, cause my face is a puffy mess from crying… repeatedly… just… sobbing all over the couch. I was a total emotional wreck for, roughly, ten hours. I myself stayed up until 3:00 AM last night, even though I had to get up at 7:00 AM, because I had to know how it ended… I needed the completion. It’s only 10 episodes long, so I highly recommend you wait until you have 10 hours to spare because it will be very difficult not to binge this drama in one sitting. Move to Heaven is currently airing on Netflix.
