A procedural that turns into a sermon and somehow gets better for it. That box.
Mostly about the story, comfort.
Rate five things you know, from any shelf. Your archetype shows up in about a minute, and gets sharper with every log.
Films, series, books, albums, games. Skip anything you haven't met.

Which one are you? The test above will tell you.
A taste fingerprint: fourteen dimensions, read against every other Bud. Yours appears after a handful of ratings.
Forrest Gump1994Epic, effortless, nostalgic and meticulous.
Not a genre label: how it moves, how it feels, what it asks of you. Every film, series, book, album and game is read on the same fourteen scales, each in its own terms (a record's tempo and sound, a game's challenge and world), and your profile is matched against them.
A procedural that turns into a sermon and somehow gets better for it. That box.
Mostly about the story, comfort.

I did not expect Mating Season to hit this hard. It feels completely of this moment. Straight onto my favourites.
An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself a Villainess is the real thing. It is kind to its people, and that kindness is the point. Go in knowing as little as you can.
J.G. Quintel at the top of their game with Regular Show: The Lost Tapes. The comedy lands again and again. Rarely does something land this completely.
DOOMED! is the real thing. Prestige in the good sense: made with care by people who mean it. It asks a lot and gives back more. I keep telling people about it.
Mostly about the craft.
I finished Bad Thoughts and just sat there for a while. The setting stays sketched, so the people stay in focus. Already want to watch it again.
Mostly about the performances, comfort.
I finished Star Maker and just sat there for a while. The sheer scope of it is breathtaking. Believe the hype on this one.
Mostly about the story.
Kindness as a product. I wanted to like it more than the show wanted to be liked, which is saying something.
