    Thank you for mentioning this show. We're in US and never heard of it.

    Watched the first episode last night.

    Agree that it is fairly similar to the Jehovahs and kinda' funny in a kinda' farcical manner.

    It was not triggering for me in the least. It seems a bit absurd, though recognizable.

    Perhaps it will provide a view of the Jehovahs (albeit not the Jehovahs) that is healing in some way.

    There are other shows for 'healing, though, so this is just kinda' 'fun' ... fairly similar to the Jehovahs ... different enough to (perhaps) not trigger ... short and fast-paced ... I recommend it, although I've only viewed the first episode.

    Not laugh out loud funny, but any X-JW or X-Mormon can chuckle at times in an uncomfortable manner.

    Journeyman- yes I agree it's a little too late to the game. I see in these other churches they try to create a social scene, or an environment, for it youth. Watchtower had said not our responsibility, but step out of line and we'll shun you got it.

    In the series everyone else burns the coordinater of the body of elders son is shunned but then gets called on by a young sister in the cong. He invites her in and pretends to be interested. They get close and he throws a surprise birthday party for her.

    The Borg are desperate that’s why they Keep on lowering age for things. You can be an elder at 20 and a CO at 23 for heaven’s sake.

    they need to do something more than this to stop the bleeding of young people.

    it’s hilarious thinking about elders meetings where the body spends 45 mins talking about something so trivial. When the stuff the young people are really getting upto is totally unknown to the elders.

    this is really shown so well in the TV show everyone else burns. One teenage girl talks about all the normal teenage stuff the young ones get upto, kissing feeling each other up and far more in some cases.

    the elders have absolutely no idea what goes on.

    they talk about the trivial stuff they know about and have local needs about it thinking it’s serious and that’s so much better now we had a local needs.

    meanwhile the young sisters are giving handjobs to the young brothers just as she says in everyone else burns.

    I swear the writers are ex JWs and had a lot of experience what really goes on in the congregations

    Season 2 could be one of the best ways ever to wake up Yang ones.
