in the flesh was such a unique show that delivered every single emotional punch it threw AND with the most complex beautiful characters and a canon gay main character who finds love and a willingness to live after so much pain. holding on to little bits of joy amongst poignant inherently tragic circumstances. and yes it's about zombies reintegrating into society. which sounds wacky but. but it was deeply profound. it was about learning to love being alive, despite it all. recognizing the love that exists around you in all its forms, in unexpected places. making the choice to try, to care, to understand, to reach out your hand, despite every odd against you. my god i miss it so much. we moved on too fast and it deserved so many more seasons

BBC's "In The Flesh" could never happen in America because nobody would be able to afford the de-zombifying meds and it'd be an instant apocalypse again
