    Schitt's Creek
    2020/12/05

    I was sleeping on the show Schitt’s Creek until just a few months ago. Now that I’ve watched it, I really appreciate it. It has great writing and amazing characters. It also does amazing work for positive representation of queer characters. In today’s epiode, I talk about Schitt’s Creek and why I like it so much.

     

    Some words:

    “Eh”

    Father-son duo 

    To sleep on (something)

    To sleep with (someone)

    To sweet (an event)
