#This is the representation I’ve been looking for

I need y'all to watch Widow's Bay right now, not only is it actually funny, but it has some genuinely unnerving scenes and great scares, and episode 2 features a clown moment scarier than anything from the 2017 It series

imagine being trapped on a small town island your entire life and your high school frenemies in their cold shoulder tops and statement necklaces still treat you exactly the same even though you’re in your 40s. no one wants to come to your party except your coworkers who kind of have to. also there’s a possessed book or whatever but that’s barely horrifying compared to the rest of it

Hey this post is not for terfs btw. The umbrella term “queer” is used here on purpose.

i am begging everyone to tune in to widows bay on apple tv. it has it all. small island location. matthew rhys endearing try hard mayor. quirky and hilarious staff. evil fog. haunted inns. amazing comedic moments. killer clowns. boogeymen. sea hags. a dead priest. episode 4 my favorite by far. i love you patricia and i want to be your friend. my new favorite show rn

It is “what if Leslie Knope was a sad wet middle aged man and also the mayor of Derry”, which is a solid premise
