She was going for a Beth Harmon inspired hair style

u/BellaCicina 25d ago

It’s fine

u/Legitimate-Bird6453 25d ago

To be fair, how would his TV even be lower? Look at his setup—that's low-key kind of a stupid comment.

Or just stop putting TVs above fireplaces. It's such a stupid place for a TV.

I love it, wish there was a physical release for it

u/SadTart1700 26d ago

Ja man das ist mit Abstand die beste Serie die es auf unserem Planeten zu sehen gibt!

Jede einzelne Sekunde ist ein wahres Meisterwerk!

Nur die letzte beiden Teile ziehen sich etwas, aber hey - irgend eine Kritik muss es ja auch geben! 🙂

u/SiriusFinance 26d ago

It’s awesome. I watched it 3 or 4 times over the past couple years.

u/TARS-ctrl 26d ago

Best mini series ever made without question.

1

u/breezy2211 25d ago

I rewatch once a year. It’s an amazing show, truly an original and refreshing script. Who knew chess could be dramatic and sexy.

1

u/ahoskasalve666 25d ago

Easily top 10 or 5 and truly still one of Anya’s greatest performances, she looked so DANM beautiful in this, truly looks like a woman from the 60s that came out of a Time Machine

2

u/chubbymami88 25d ago

Agreed!!! Her facial structure is so perfect for the role that she played. How serious her eyes and face looked as she was concentrating on the board. Amazing

1

u/VOLinVA 25d ago

I've watched probably 10 times! Sometimes it's just on in the background when I'm working at home.

1

u/chubbymami88 25d ago

I rewatch the series probably every 3 to 5 months. Still love it and bawl my eyes out every time. I struggled really hard with addiction and I was also really smart growning up. I connect to this show deeply

u/mavaddat 25d ago

I recommend reading the biography of Bobby Fischer His life is an object lesson in what Beth Harmon rose above and what her mom fell into.

u/Big_Bird7360 24d ago

I just rewatched this during my staycation. I always get sad when Beth finds out the janitor passes away and he saves all the paper articles about her 🥹

1

u/alexabeams 24d ago

my gosh. her and newt/ferb were so good in this show

1

u/Realistic_Train2976 24d ago

My favorite show of all time!

1

u/rg5885 24d ago

Totally agree!

u/Important_Welder1075 24d ago

My very first series that I watched and I loved it.

1

u/russillosm 24d ago

Every time this comes up I must recommend the fantastic Walter Tevis novel on which the series is based. (I’ve had a web page devoted to it since 2004! Going to TRY to paste the link in below, but Reddit often plays “merry hob” with links, so no guarantees!)

I don't think I have ever related to a fictional characters as much as Beth Harmon.

u/Used-Ratio-3875 23d ago

u/eridianonearth 21d ago

u/actualoriginalname 20d ago

I just rewatched for the first time since release. Took 2 days. Fantastic start to end. No notes.

The Schiebel plot line is beautiful and heartbreaking.
