"content": "\u003cp>If you’re looking for a perfect encapsulation of what happened to celebrity culture in 2020, look no further than this Twitter thread that emerged last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/warrenleightTV/status/1336817740078845955\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/warrenleightTV/status/1336817747699904512\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/warrenleightTV/status/1336817757455872005\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enthusiastic bird watching is nothing new, of course, especially in New York City. But in December 2020, seeing a large group of photographers raving over a bird instead of a celebrity isn’t just less surprising than it would’ve been in January, it’s somehow infinitely more relatable. Because as everyone has struggled to keep their heads above the proverbial flood waters for the last 10 months, these kinds of small pleasures have dominated all of our lives. And they’ve come remarkably close to decimating celebrity culture as a national pastime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There can be no doubt that 2020 has forced us to reevaluate all priorities: our careers, homes, families, relationships—even \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13883244/how-sheltering-in-place-is-shifting-womens-beauty-standards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">our appearances\u003c/a>. But caring about celebrities was one of the very first things to go by the wayside when normal life unceremoniously shut down in March.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s not hard to pinpoint the exact moment when we turned our backs either. It was this:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/ashleyfeinberg/status/1240484129222856705\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gal Gadot et al.’s ill-advised, cringe-worthy, patronizing, self-indulgent response to a global pandemic was a cold bucket of water on the head, at the precise moment we neither wanted nor needed one. But it also woke us up. Overnight, celebrity culture went from providing a casual mental escape to being so far beyond the realms of real—the real stress, real fear, real discomfort we were all feeling—that it became utterly and instantaneously unpalatable. [aside postid='arts_13877066']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was exacerbated by celebrities telling us how to handle the pandemic from the comforts of their \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/tv/B92YsciHcUu/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mansions\u003c/a>, their \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HtpM7XvUnQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">hot tubs\u003c/a>, their \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/B90q7dpAnHW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">meditation retreats\u003c/a>, and their \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/B9BxGPqFfpw/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">first-class seats\u003c/a> on \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/B9kwcbPnFPo/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">airplanes\u003c/a>.

My job, almost overnight, became about self-care and self-contained pastimes that were firmly outside of the realms of the rich and the famous. The upper crust, it seemed, had been rendered largely irrelevant, almost overnight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public’s relationship with celebrities was further disconnected after the entertainment industry all but ground to a halt. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13890093/2020-decimated-the-concert-industry-and-it-cant-rebuild-without-government-help\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Concert tours were delayed\u003c/a> indefinitely, a shocking number of \u003ca href=\"https://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/breakdown-of-2020-movie-delays-and-when-they-will-hit-theaters/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">movie releases were postponed\u003c/a> until 2021, and TV shows either stopped dead in their tracks, or were forced to come up with complicated production solutions. (Oddly, this actually worked to benefit viewers in some cases. \u003cem>The Great British Baking Show\u003c/em>’s quarantined contestants were closer than ever, for one. And in lieu of making Season 2, HBO’s \u003cem>Euphoria\u003c/em> aired a two-person, one-hour\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY0_7wPGJlk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> special\u003c/a> in December that should be remembered as one of the most thought-provoking hours of television … well, \u003cem>ever\u003c/em>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another factor influencing our level of interest in famous people was a sudden drop in commuting time across the nation. According to Stanford University economist Nicholas Bloom, since March, almost twice as many \u003ca href=\"https://news.stanford.edu/2020/06/29/snapshot-new-working-home-economy/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">employees are working from home\u003c/a> than those at workplaces. The non-commuters are now 42% of America’s labor force. Without mundane journeys to fill with distractions, workers are less in need of frivolous celebrity tidbits. [aside postid='arts_13879872']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The erasure of all those commutes and early morning Starbucks lines undoubtedly contributed to the death of short-form streaming channel \u003ca href=\"https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/tv/2020/10/22/quibi-shuts-down-after-six-months-heres-why/3725358001/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Quibi\u003c/a>, just six months after it launched. And not even the biggest names on its roster—the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Liam Hemsworth, Queen Latifah, Kevin Hart and Chrissy Teigen—provided enough of a lure to get people to tune in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Gen Z’s desire for short-form entertainment remained intact, they really only wanted it from TikTok. This was thanks in part to a format that allowed for a sense of community and connection while sheltering in place. On TikTok, the stars weren’t celebrities in the traditional sense either. They were \u003ca href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@addisonre\">Addison Rae\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@bellapoarch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bella Poarch\u003c/a>, who currently have 71.1 million and 47.6 million followers respectively, simply for miming while cute. The \u003ca href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@badwiggies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bad Wiggies\u003c/a> (3.4 million followers)—an anonymous trio of Miami girls dancing in empty parking lots—inspired dance moves and fashion choices.

Apodaca acted as the ultimate symbol of how regular people stay zen in dire circumstances, and the nation fell in love with him because of it.

My job, almost overnight, became about self-care and self-contained pastimes that were firmly outside of the realms of the rich and the famous. The upper crust, it seemed, had been rendered largely irrelevant, almost overnight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public’s relationship with celebrities was further disconnected after the entertainment industry all but ground to a halt. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13890093/2020-decimated-the-concert-industry-and-it-cant-rebuild-without-government-help\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Concert tours were delayed\u003c/a> indefinitely, a shocking number of \u003ca href=\"https://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/breakdown-of-2020-movie-delays-and-when-they-will-hit-theaters/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">movie releases were postponed\u003c/a> until 2021, and TV shows either stopped dead in their tracks, or were forced to come up with complicated production solutions. (Oddly, this actually worked to benefit viewers in some cases. \u003cem>The Great British Baking Show\u003c/em>’s quarantined contestants were closer than ever, for one. And in lieu of making Season 2, HBO’s \u003cem>Euphoria\u003c/em> aired a two-person, one-hour\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY0_7wPGJlk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> special\u003c/a> in December that should be remembered as one of the most thought-provoking hours of television … well, \u003cem>ever\u003c/em>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another factor influencing our level of interest in famous people was a sudden drop in commuting time across the nation. According to Stanford University economist Nicholas Bloom, since March, almost twice as many \u003ca href=\"https://news.stanford.edu/2020/06/29/snapshot-new-working-home-economy/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">employees are working from home\u003c/a> than those at workplaces.

Already on the low end of the earning spectrum (an average of just over $50,000 a year), the arts, entertainment and recreation sector is second only to “accommodations and food services” in terms of pandemic job losses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s bad.

Artists were already existing on the margins with little to no savings, but the types of jobs that allow for the flexibility to pursue artmaking were some of the first to go: art handling, bartending, events staff, public-facing museum positions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laura Poppiti, grants program director at the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cciarts.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Center for Cultural Innovation\u003c/a>, which administered five local emergency relief funds in coordination with other Bay Area nonprofits, says the pandemic has made clear there are seismic cracks in our system. “What COVID has brought to light is that grants and these one-off programs, they’re not even Band-Aids,” she says. “We don’t have good or solid safety nets for artists and everyone else who shares those circumstances.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='arts_13876893']In some of the grants Poppiti helped oversee, the available money was enough to fund only around half of their applicants. The San Francisco Arts & Artists Relief Fund supported 699 individual artists and 65 arts and culture organizations, but received 1,400 applications in total. The East Bay/Oakland Relief Fund for Individuals in the Arts awarded 515 individuals, but received around 900 applications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even instances where it might seem like need was met—by the City of San Jose Coronavirus Relief Fund and the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13887609/hardly-strictly-gives-over-3-million-to-out-of-work-musicians-venues\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hardly Strictly Music Relief Fund\u003c/a>, which were both able to award all their applicants, 94 artists and 330 roots musicians, respectively—might not be indicative of the true breadth of the situation. The San Jose relief fund only reimbursed eligible expenses as defined by the CARES Act. And Elliott, who received a grant from the Hardly Strictly fund, noted the application process was geared towards musicians who already had an online presence and ready-to-go digital files.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the \u003ci>Economic Recovery Task Force Report\u003c/i> states: “Bureaucracy is even more burdensome at a time of great need.” Multiple nonprofit administrators interviewed for this article spoke to the artistic community’s exhaustion. Not only did artists need to seek out and apply for various grants, many had to navigate filing a claim for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA), an expansion of unemployment insurance for self-employed workers and independent contractors. (PUA is set to expire on Dec. 26, a fact Poppiti calls “appalling.”)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t imagine the emotional labor and trauma that so many artists were going through, putting out application after application after application and getting rejections,” Poppiti says. “Demand far outweighs the resources available.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if, like Elliott, you were a recipient of a grant (or two), how does that help you a month, six months, or a year after your main source of income is gone?\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13890378\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13890378\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS42591_008_KQED_SanFrancisco_Businesses_04072020-qut_1200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS42591_008_KQED_SanFrancisco_Businesses_04072020-qut_1200.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS42591_008_KQED_SanFrancisco_Businesses_04072020-qut_1200-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS42591_008_KQED_SanFrancisco_Businesses_04072020-qut_1200-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS42591_008_KQED_SanFrancisco_Businesses_04072020-qut_1200-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS42591_008_KQED_SanFrancisco_Businesses_04072020-qut_1200-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Venues like the Warfield, which closed in mid-March per San Francisco city orders, won’t reopen until full-capacity indoor events are allowed once again. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Alternatives Hampered by Traditional Funding\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>While even those administering emergency grants admit they’re stop-gap measures, the alternatives are limited by the current funding landscape. Much of what’s available to both nonprofits and individual artists is project-based; funders are interested in pointing to specific exhibitions, performances or objects as the products of their generosity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That approach, Poppiti says, is partly based on the “overhead myth”—that a well-performing nonprofit has low administrative and fundraising expenses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' citation='Laura Poppiti, Center for Cultural Innovation']‘Philanthropy has rewarded arts nonprofits for underpaying their employees.’[/pullquote]Margaret McCarthy, executive director and co-director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.soex.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Southern Exposure\u003c/a>, which dispersed two rounds of emergency funds in lieu of their annual Alternative Exposure grant (normally project-based), says the pandemic has forced many funders to abandon this standard. With space rentals and ticket sales off the table, nonprofits losing their general operating income turned to funders to release previously restricted grants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a shift McCarthy says she’s been trumpeting long before shelter in place. “As organizations, we want to pay our staff an industry-competitive compensation. We have to do things like pay our rent,” she says. “Project-based support just tries to leap over the operating costs in order to produce the more glamorous projects.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This isn’t about privileging arts administrators over artists, but acknowledging an organization as a whole entity, the health of which benefits the broader arts ecosystem. “These are people who should be living full lives,” Poppiti says. “Philanthropy has rewarded arts nonprofits for underpaying their employees.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarthy puts it bluntly: “Why should it have to get to an emergency state before we fund the basic needs of organizations?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Extending that line of reasoning out to individual artist grants only makes sense, says Valerie Imus, Southern Exposure’s artistic director and co-director. “It’s so beyond just trying to support artists to buy supplies,” she says. For its first round of emergency grants, Southern Exposure received 189 applications for 60 available slots. The second, restricted to only San Francisco artists, saw 125 applications for just 19 grants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like other grant administrators, Imus knows the psychological toll of sifting through artists’ statements of need and making incredibly difficult decisions about who would receive funding. In notes of thanks from recipients, they mentioned being able to buy groceries or support their extended family for another month. “The stories were just so hard to read,” she says. “It was heartbreaking to not be able to give more.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13890365\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS46058_046_KQED_SanFrancisco_ElectionDayVoting_11032020-qut_1200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13890365\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS46058_046_KQED_SanFrancisco_ElectionDayVoting_11032020-qut_1200.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS46058_046_KQED_SanFrancisco_ElectionDayVoting_11032020-qut_1200-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS46058_046_KQED_SanFrancisco_ElectionDayVoting_11032020-qut_1200-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS46058_046_KQED_SanFrancisco_ElectionDayVoting_11032020-qut_1200-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/RS46058_046_KQED_SanFrancisco_ElectionDayVoting_11032020-qut_1200-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Southern Exposure being used as a polling place on Nov. 3, 2020, with an installation by Related Tactics titled ‘Never Again is Now’ on view. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>While other industries have been able to reopen in stages, the arts, culture and entertainment sector can only return in full force once the region is completely reopened.

So far they’ve raised over $600,000 and funded around 700 applicants, with approximately 120 still on the waiting list and 20–30 more each month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The fact that people have to reapply … [shows] it’s not enough,” says Kimberley Cohan, TBA’s programs manager. The relief fund is an exercise in rapid response and coalition-building. Cohan says partnering with other organizations pooled their fundraising power and helped get the word out to even more applicants. Immediate financial need is still present, she says, but she’s also turning her attention to other concerns: helping artists stay in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Problems Grants Can’t Solve\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Lee Lavy, a \u003ca href=\"https://leemlavy.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">visual artist\u003c/a> and musician who was working as an art handler at the beginning of the year, decided to leave San Francisco with his partner Kelli Wong just before shelter in place took effect. Facing no work and confinement within a tiny apartment, the couple opted instead for Bitterroot Valley, Montana, where Lavy grew up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right']The pandemic’s toll on the local art community will be visible in all the empty spaces where our friends once stood.[/pullquote]“Until the virus hit, we had no intention of leaving San Francisco,” says Lavy, who graduated from UC Berkeley’s MFA program in 2015.

With space rentals and ticket sales off the table, nonprofits losing their general operating income turned to funders to release previously restricted grants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a shift McCarthy says she’s been trumpeting long before shelter in place. “As organizations, we want to pay our staff an industry-competitive compensation.

After becoming frustrated with Zoom as a rehearsal platform due to its delays and bandwidth usage, they hit upon using Discord, a chatroom app popular with gamers. This made it possible, Brown says, to rehearse with fewer delays and glitches by using Discord’s audio-only features, all while developing their own radio play “vocabulary” as a group.

It blurred lines between genres, platforms and story forms, while also encouraging us to develop our own, deep rabbit holes of favorite media. So when our team of four critics sat down to figure out what we liked most onscreen this year, we each had a lot of stuff on our lists no one else did. [aside postid='arts_13890197']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why our list crosses a lot of boundaries, including projects technically released as feature films. It’s a powerful example of how much quality entertainment was available this year, even after coronavirus lockdowns shut down productions and upended release schedules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In alphabetical order, here’s our best of 2020—and we know it’s a long list, so you can use these alphabetical links to skip around: \u003ca href=\"#B\">B\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#C\">C\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#D\">D\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#F\">F\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#G\">G\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#H\">H\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#I\">I\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#J\">J\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#L\">L\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#M\">M\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#N\">N\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#O\">O\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#P\">P\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#Q\">Q\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#T\">T\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"#W\">W\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Better Call Saul, Season 5 \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(AMC, Amazon Prime rental, earlier seasons on Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This outstanding FX series long ago rendered pointless any comparisons to \u003cem>Breaking Bad\u003c/em>, of which it is technically a prequel. The story it’s telling is so very much its own—by turns gritty and funny, melancholic and viciously violent. In its penultimate season, the transformation of Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) into Saul Goodman—a criminal lawyer who’s actually a \u003cem>criminal\u003c/em> lawyer—is just about complete. We finally saw the series’ two disparate plot threads—Jimmy’s and Mike’s (Jonathan Banks)—come together, a richly satisfying consummation for those viewers who’ve complained about the series’ pacing, and who’ve longed for those two characters to share the screen. The fact that it’s all set against the very real, and immensely worrying, potential downfall of the show’s beating heart—Rhea Seehorn’s astonishing performance as Jimmy’s girlfriend Kim—invests us that much deeply in the show’s dangerous and duplicitous world. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon, Aisha Harris, Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Black Is King\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Disney+)/\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Between the World and Me\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (HBO and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a year that saw lots of reflection on systemic racism and police brutality, these two films offered emotional, effective meditations on Black joy and pain in very different ways. \u003cem>Black Is King\u003c/em> is Beyoncé’s “visual album,” loosely inspired by \u003cem>The Lion King\u003c/em> story, using arresting images and banging tunes to portray the peoples of the African diaspora rediscovering their heritage as leaders and royalty. \u003cem>Between the World and Me\u003c/em> is a different kind of tone poem, centered on passages read by performers like Oprah Winfrey from Ta-Nehisi Coates’ book, which was written as a letter to his teen son. It explores the dangers Black people face from police brutality and the joy which comes from Black love and achievement, perfectly presenting the duality of African American life. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>BoJack Horseman, Season 6, Part II \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After five-plus seasons watching a washed-up sitcom horse wrestle with drug addiction, narcissism, childhood traumas and the traumas he inflicted upon others, BoJack Horseman’s story came to an end that was as satisfying as one could hope. What the show did best (besides insanely clever animal puns and skewering Hollywood) was really question and challenge the arc of redemption for people (or horses) who have caused an immeasurable amount of pain to others. Right up to its final moments, the writers and animators didn’t let up, remaining as inquisitive and creative as ever. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Boys State\u003c/em>\u003c/strong> \u003cstrong>(Apple TV+)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Set at Boys State in Texas, a program where high school boys run for office and form a mock government, this is a documentary not for the faint of heart. It shows kids whose approach to politics is already hardened, already combative beyond the substance of it. Combative for its own sake. While there are moments that show the promise of young activists and idealists, there are also dark signs that a lot of kids who have grown up in our fractured and nasty political climate have learned plenty from the politicians who have endeavored at every turn to make it worse. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Class Action Park\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> \u003cstrong>(HBO Max)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This documentary functions, at one level, as a document laying out the details of a very specific time and place: Action Park in New Jersey, famous for being the amusement park where kids got hurt. But with the help of excellent input from Class Action Park patrons and comedian Chris Gethard, it turns into a consideration of nostalgia more generally, and of what it means to know you had a great time doing something that was a very bad idea. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Da 5 Bloods \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spike Lee’s usage of Marvin Gaye’s \u003cem>What’s Going On?\u003c/em> album is divine; his nods and references to everything from \u003cem>The Treasure of the Sierra Madre \u003c/em>to \u003cem>Rambo \u003c/em>are thoughtful and layered; Chadwick Boseman, in one of his final roles, is a powerful and spiritual presence. But this movie belongs to Delroy Lindo, who cuts an imposing and indelible figure as Paul, a Vietnam War vet worn down by unresolved guilt, wrecked by bitterness, sadness and fear. He finds shades to play with in every feeling and thought, giving one of the great performances in recent memory. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>David Byrne’s American Utopia \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(HBO and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>[aside postid='arts_13890048']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a year when we were starved for good feelings, a year when mere happiness felt like ecstatic joy, and real ecstatic joy—like that on glorious display on a Broadway stage by a barefoot David Byrne and a cadre of musicians in matching gray suits—could leave you breathless, swooning and profoundly grateful. Directed by Spike Lee, the theatrical concert film spans Byrne’s musical career but—as with any production associated with Byrne—it leaves plenty of room to get enthusiastically weird. Wireless technology allows the musicians to roam the stage, and they do so in lock-step choreography, like the hippest high school marching band imaginable. A special treat for longtime Talking Heads fans: We finally get the live version of “Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On)” that we didn’t know we’ve been aching for, all this time. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>First Cow \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Showtime, DIRECTTV, and numerous rental sites) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s astounding how much suspense director Kelly Reichardt is able to derive from the act of milking a cow. In early 19th-century Oregon Territory, skillful cook Otis “Cookie” Figowitz (John Magaro) befriends King-Lu, an enterprising Chinese immigrant (Orion Lee) and outlaw. Together, they conjure up a successful business at a market outpost selling oily cakes to hungry traders; the recipe requires a very scarce commodity around those parts: cow’s milk. It’s one-part heist film and another part buddy adventure, with a tender—and often humorous—friendship at its center. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Flight Attendant\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (HBO Max)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Based on the novel by Chris Bohjalian, this smart, taut HBO Max thriller stars Kaley Cuoco as, well, a flight attendant who wakes up after a night of partying and realizes something very, very bad happened while she was asleep. Part mystery, part drama about the aftereffects of a traumatic childhood, and part dark comedy, it was one of the most pleasant surprises of the year, impressing with its razor-sharp tone, supporting performances (Zosia Mamet is tremendous as Cuoco’s best friend), and heartfelt work from Cuoco. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Forty-Year-Old Version \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Radha Blank’s debut as a feature film director, writer and star is an engaging portrait of an artist at an existential crossroad, professional and personal. This is a refreshingly specific mid-life crisis, one borrowing from Blank’s own life as a born-and-bred New York writer and rapper known as RhadaMUS Prime. It’s funny and poignant, and the banter and characters feel real and alive. Radha the character may lack confidence at times, but real-life Radha the filmmaker is very self-assured. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris, Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Good Place, Season 4 \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(NBC, Netflix, Amazon Prime) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The road to this perfectly poignant finale wasn’t smooth. Much of seasons 3 and 4 lacked the bite of the earlier seasons, and as the gang fought to prove that there was a fundamental glitch in the sorting of heaven and hell, it felt almost like Mike Schur and his team were spinning wheels. But they stuck the landing anyway, bringing back some of that subversiveness by daring to suggest there can come a point when you feel as though you’ve done all you wanted to do in (the after)life and it’s time to move on. It’s a dark thing to contemplate, but it’s also honest. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Great \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Hulu)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Billed as “An Occasionally True Story,” this series about young Catherine (Elle Fanning) and her ill-fated marriage to Emperor Peter of Russia (Nicholas Hoult) is stuffed with gleefully ahistorical elements that’ll send students of Russian history into aneurysms. Fanning is terrific as an idealistic (and self-satisfied) would-be social reformer, while Hoult’s Peter is a nightmare—a sociopathic boor poured into a pair of tight leather pants. \u003cem>The Great \u003c/em>was created by Tony McNamara, based on his 2008 play. McNamara went on to co-write 2018’s \u003cem>The Favourite\u003c/em>, and if you’ve seen that film, you know what to expect here—yes, bustles and corsets, wigs and snuffboxes, but also crisp ripostes, lacerating insults and dialogue that sizzles with withering wit. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Harley Quinn\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (DC Universe and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given the sheer tonnage of live action superhero shows on TV, it’s notable that the most gonzo, subversive, hilarious, action packed, explicit and entertaining take on the DC comics universe is actually this animated series. Originally created for the streaming service DC Universe, it now lives on HBO Max, where \u003cem>Big Bang Theory\u003c/em> alum Kaley Cuoco voices the Joker’s former girlfriend as an unpredictable, profanity-slinging romantic who resists the ex who exploited her. It’s a comedy of sorts where even Batman is a bit of a doofus, featuring Harley leading a team of misfit baddies who struggle for recognition as Gotham City’s leading villains, redefining adult-oriented superhero stories in the process. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Haunting of Bly Manor \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first installment of this Netflix series\u003cem>, The Haunting of Hill House\u003c/em>, was packed with plenty of good, ghostly scares—but it lagged in the middle, and whiffed the ending. With \u003cem>The Haunting of Bly Manor\u003c/em> creator and showrunner Mike Flanagan hasn’t simply found a new author to riff on (Henry James, instead of Shirley Jackson) he has seriously course-corrected. Though it parcels out the scares more thinly than \u003cem>Hill House \u003c/em>did, \u003cem>Bly Manor\u003c/em>‘s story is tighter, and it nails the all-important dismount in a sincere, humane and bittersweet way that directly addresses the nature, and the purpose, of grief. It’s not overtly tidy or dully expositional—yet it feels, in the best way, inevitable. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>I Hate Suzie\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>\u003cstrong> (HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This British series—just eight episodes, as is their wont—stars the great Billie Piper as an actress whose nudes end up on the Internet after her phone gets hacked. She then proceeds to make a series of \u003cem>wildly\u003c/em> terrible decisions to deal with it—or \u003cem>not\u003c/em> deal with it, as the case may be. It won’t be for everyone. Think of it as the anti-\u003cem>Ted Lasso—\u003c/em>there’s little here that’s comforting or warm. Try it on for size: Watch the first episode, in which a huge crowd comes tromping through her home for a photo shoot just as she’s first finding out about the leaked nudes. She keeps trying to find some privacy—and keep her husband from finding out—in a long stretch of tense, claustrophobic, downright nightmarish scenes, many of which take place entirely in a tight close-up of Piper’s face as she attempts to keep from panicking.

It also became a broader examination of ethics in sex and relationships, from the traumatic to the questionable to the unkind. The supporting cast and dizzying structural turns made the HBO show one of the most exciting of 2020. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes, Aisha Harris, Eric Deggans, Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Invisible Man \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(HBO, HBO Max and numerous rental sites)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elisabeth Moss stars as a woman who begins to fear she’s crazy when she keeps sensing her dead abusive husband everywhere. From there, the film becomes a consideration of paranoia, trauma and ultimately the desire to reclaim a connection to reality that’s come undone as a result of repeated, relentless gaslighting. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>John Mulaney and the Sack Lunch Bunch \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Point of order: This comedy special debuted on Dec. 25, 2019—after we made our annual list—so it slides in here on a technicality. But it certainly belongs—no comedy special has won me over so hard, so completely. Mulaney’s idiosyncratic sensibility might seem an odd fit for what is essentially an extended riff on old children’s television programming, but it works seamlessly here. That’s a product of the writing, which is wry but never cynical, but it’s also an outgrowth of the casting. These kid actors aren’t pushing it—they easily find Mulaney’s particular comedic frequency, and stick to it. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Last Dance\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Basketball legend Michael Jordan looms over every frame of this revealing documentary series first shown on ESPN, and not just because it expertly documents his final championship season with the Chicago Bulls in 1997-98. It’s an incisive look at how that team became a world-crushing, pop-culture-dominating force, with special detail on how Jordan built his legend. Other stories also resonate: How Dennis Rodman nearly committed suicide before he joined the Bulls; how teammate Scottie Pippen was continually underpaid; how Jordan was merciless about pushing his teammates and cultivating grudges to boost his performance. Jordan was involved as a producer and had to approve use of the Bulls’ behind-the-scenes footage, giving him even more control. But despite his influence, this miniseries offers a never-before-seen look at a once in a generation team. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Lovecraft Country\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (HBO and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Packed to bursting with symbolism, special effects, allegory, social messages, reinvented horror tropes and enough plot to require a YouTube explainer for every episode, this audacious take on Matt Ruff’s 2016 novel is a lot. But its story, placing a Black family at the heart of a pitched battle with a white family of witches in the Jim Crow-era 1950s, is a marvel of ambition and craft. Comparing the horrors of racism to the supernatural horrors found in novels by H.P. Lovecraft—himself an infamous xenophobe and racist—reinvents the genre in unexpected ways. And the work of executive producer/writer/director Misha Green to showcase the power of Black love and family in a series dropping during the summer’s reckoning over systemic racism and police brutality, was exquisitely perfect timing. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans, Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Lovers Rock \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Amazon Prime) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This entry in Steve McQueen’s excellent \u003cem>Small Axe \u003c/em>anthology series will surely make you want to seek out its soundtrack, which is bubbling with classics of the reggae subgenre from which it gets its title. But as you follow these young West Indian Londoners mingling, dancing, flirting and rebuffing aggressive strangers at a lively house party on one evening in 1980, it will also transport you to a realm of beauty and intimacy. It’s a musical reverie that manages to capture the exultation of the arrival of the weekend, and the sanctity of Black community. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Mucho Mucho Amor\u003c/em>\u003c/strong> \u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Netflix presented this documentary about legendary astrologer Walter Mercado to an audience that included both people who grew up watching him on television every day and people who knew him hardly at all. It told a story that was alternatively sad and stirring, but it ultimately gave the man his due as a legend who was part of the lives of many families and who found himself poorly treated by some of those close to him. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The New Pope \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(HBO and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>[aside postid='arts_13890093']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The New Pope\u003c/em>, like \u003cem>The Young Pope\u003c/em> before it, is all about jockeying for a very earthly kind of power behind the scenes of the Vatican. The vaguely odd, singular tone of that first series persists, as does the many Italian actors’ tendencies to emphasize words that native English speakers wouldn’t necessarily emphasize, and insert long, meaningful pauses (creator Paolo Sorrentino loves his pauses) where native English speakers wouldn’t. It all adds to the sense that you’re watching the show from across a vague, yet palpable cultural divide—the ecclesiastical drama as Mentos commercial. Despite the title change and the swapping out of Jude Law’s Pius XIII for John Malkovich’s Sir John Brannox, Sorrentino’s camera still tracks slowly and languidly through immense arched hallways, vaulted rooms and lush gardens, pausing to alight upon small, telling details. Malkovich revels in his portrayal of Brannox as a louche, mascara-wearing British fop who flounces through life—a man who can be counted upon to find the nearest chaise in any room and recline upon it as if he has just been roughly flung there. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Normal People\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Hulu)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sally Rooney novel about two young students who fall in love and watch their lives intersect over many years was a hit, and adapting it into a limited series was a challenge since it’s so reliant on the interiority of the lead characters. But leads Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal brought their scenes together an intimacy and grace that kept the wide-ranging story in focus. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>On The Record \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(HBO Max)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making a documentary about the reckoning over sexual harassment in music would have been too broad an assignment for any filmmaker. So it makes sense that this one is narrower: It is primarily about allegations against hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, and even more specifically about Drew Dixon, an A&R executive who says she saw her career founder after being assaulted by Simmons. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Ozark, Season 3\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics who dismiss this drama about a family juggling internal drama and FBI scrutiny while laundering money for a Mexican drug cartel in the Ozarks (some have dubbed it “Breaking Bad: The Family Edition”) have missed the point. Especially in this year’s powerhouse third season, Ozark raised its game, adding Janet McTeer as a domineering cartel lawyer and Tom Pelphrey in a shamefully under-recognized turn as the bipolar brother of matriarch Wendy Byrde, played by Laura Linney. Pelphrey was heart-rending as the only person who saw how terrible the Byrdes’ activities were, despite his mental illness. And the show’s ability to keep viewers invested in Jason Bateman’s numbers whiz, patriarch Marty Byrde—no matter who he gets killed or rips off—is nothing short of amazing. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>P-Valley \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(STARZ) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In lesser hands, Uncle Clifford (Nicco Annan)—the towering, flamboyant non-binary strip club owner whose drawl kind of sounds like Katt Williams—could have easily turned out to be little more than sassy caricature. But Katori Hall’s soapy melodrama about a rural Mississippi town and its colorful inhabitants takes its characters seriously, and over the course of this crackling first season they emerge more unique and interesting than their “types” might initially suggest. The show also brings a new level of respect to the artistry and precision of pole dancing—among the highlights are those extensive routines backed by dirty, thumping Southern hip-hop. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Queen’s Gambit\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before I saw one scene of chess play, I was all in for a miniseries showing a talented, self-possessed woman mastering a game dominated by men in the 1950s and ’60s, knocking them off like clay pigeons on her way to the world championship. But this series, crafted by Scott Frank based on a 1983 novel, also plays like a superhero origin story. In a magnetic performance, Anya Taylor-Joy brings liquid eyes and an inscrutable manner to chess prodigy Beth Harmon, who must overcome substance abuse, the influence of her suicidal mom and a sexist world to reach her goals. Toss in a period-specific, lavish production and direction that actually makes chess look interesting, and you have the ingredients of a modern TV masterpiece. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Ted Lasso\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Apple TV+) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Saturday Night Live\u003c/em> alum Jason Sudeikis is funny, bumbling and occasionally heartbreaking as Ted Lasso, a stupendously optimistic American college football coach hired to lead a Premiere League soccer team in England. The owner is actually trying to sabotage the team by hiring Lasso, who knows nothing about soccer—or “football,” as they call it in Britain. But she doesn’t realize his true superpower is that he’s so gosh darned nice. It may sound a little hokey, but \u003cem>Ted Lasso\u003c/em> somehow builds a wonderful comedy around the healing power of niceness—deflating any hokum with a well-timed joke or two. And considering how tough 2020 has been, we all could use a lot of that message right about now. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans, Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Tiger King\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The subjects of this docuseries became the butt of a thousand punchlines, as viewers dug into the tawdry tale of Joe Exotic—a publicity-seeking, pistol-packing character running a private zoo in Oklahoma who was convicted of paying a hitman to murder his longtime nemesis, self-styled animal conservationist Carol Baskin. Still, the series itself is an amazing achievement, exploring the eccentric and often exploitive underworld of exotic animal collectors and conservationists. Joe Exotic was the show’s unstable center, given to stunts like running for president and participating in an unofficial, three-way same sex marriage. But the show also featured footage filmed over years, as directors caught crucial moments on film and climbed inside the heart of a devastatingly dysfunctional subculture. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Time \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Amazon Prime) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a profound sadness at the core of Garrett Bradley’s arresting documentary about Fox Rich, a Louisiana woman who spent decades tirelessly contesting her husband Robert’s 60-year prison sentence for a crime they both committed out of economic desperation. But there’s also a sense of optimism humming beneath it all, particularly in how Rich’s story unfolds on screen: via footage from approximately 100 hours of daily video diaries she made of herself and their children over the years, in the hopes of eventually having the opportunity to show it all to Robert. Bradley and editor Gabriel Rhodes take this treasure of a time capsule and turn out an absorbing masterpiece. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>What We Do In The Shadows, Season 2 \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(FX and FX on Hulu)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As great as the first season of this modern-day-vampire mockumentary series was, it had trouble stepping out of the long … well, \u003cem>shadow\u003c/em> of the 2014 film on which it was based. That’s not to say there weren’t plenty of creative additions—Mark Proksch’s cardigan-clad “energy vampire” Colin Robinson, for example, the embodiment of all things evil … and beige. But in the second season, a stronger, more linear plot involving the show’s secret weapon (Harvey Guillén as Guillermo, the Staten-Island-based vampires’ long-suffering thrall/assistant who discovers as dark, hilarious truth about himself) leaves the viewer with the impression that the show has clicked into its groove. And speaking of groove: If the show did nothing but grace us with the presence of the marvelous Matt Barry at his bombastic best here playing the preternaturally self-impressed vampire Lazlo, it would be enough. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2020 NPR.

The story it’s telling is so very much its own—by turns gritty and funny, melancholic and viciously violent. In its penultimate season, the transformation of Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) into Saul Goodman—a criminal lawyer who’s actually a \u003cem>criminal\u003c/em> lawyer—is just about complete. We finally saw the series’ two disparate plot threads—Jimmy’s and Mike’s (Jonathan Banks)—come together, a richly satisfying consummation for those viewers who’ve complained about the series’ pacing, and who’ve longed for those two characters to share the screen. The fact that it’s all set against the very real, and immensely worrying, potential downfall of the show’s beating heart—Rhea Seehorn’s astonishing performance as Jimmy’s girlfriend Kim—invests us that much deeply in the show’s dangerous and duplicitous world. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon, Aisha Harris, Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Black Is King\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Disney+)/\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Between the World and Me\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (HBO and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a year that saw lots of reflection on systemic racism and police brutality, these two films offered emotional, effective meditations on Black joy and pain in very different ways. \u003cem>Black Is King\u003c/em> is Beyoncé’s “visual album,” loosely inspired by \u003cem>The Lion King\u003c/em> story, using arresting images and banging tunes to portray the peoples of the African diaspora rediscovering their heritage as leaders and royalty. \u003cem>Between the World and Me\u003c/em> is a different kind of tone poem, centered on passages read by performers like Oprah Winfrey from Ta-Nehisi Coates’ book, which was written as a letter to his teen son. It explores the dangers Black people face from police brutality and the joy which comes from Black love and achievement, perfectly presenting the duality of African American life. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>BoJack Horseman, Season 6, Part II \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After five-plus seasons watching a washed-up sitcom horse wrestle with drug addiction, narcissism, childhood traumas and the traumas he inflicted upon others, BoJack Horseman’s story came to an end that was as satisfying as one could hope. What the show did best (besides insanely clever animal puns and skewering Hollywood) was really question and challenge the arc of redemption for people (or horses) who have caused an immeasurable amount of pain to others. Right up to its final moments, the writers and animators didn’t let up, remaining as inquisitive and creative as ever. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Boys State\u003c/em>\u003c/strong> \u003cstrong>(Apple TV+)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Set at Boys State in Texas, a program where high school boys run for office and form a mock government, this is a documentary not for the faint of heart. It shows kids whose approach to politics is already hardened, already combative beyond the substance of it. Combative for its own sake. While there are moments that show the promise of young activists and idealists, there are also dark signs that a lot of kids who have grown up in our fractured and nasty political climate have learned plenty from the politicians who have endeavored at every turn to make it worse. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Class Action Park\u003c/strong>\u003c/em> \u003cstrong>(HBO Max)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This documentary functions, at one level, as a document laying out the details of a very specific time and place: Action Park in New Jersey, famous for being the amusement park where kids got hurt.

Directed by Spike Lee, the theatrical concert film spans Byrne’s musical career but—as with any production associated with Byrne—it leaves plenty of room to get enthusiastically weird. Wireless technology allows the musicians to roam the stage, and they do so in lock-step choreography, like the hippest high school marching band imaginable. A special treat for longtime Talking Heads fans: We finally get the live version of “Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On)” that we didn’t know we’ve been aching for, all this time. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>First Cow \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Showtime, DIRECTTV, and numerous rental sites) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s astounding how much suspense director Kelly Reichardt is able to derive from the act of milking a cow. In early 19th-century Oregon Territory, skillful cook Otis “Cookie” Figowitz (John Magaro) befriends King-Lu, an enterprising Chinese immigrant (Orion Lee) and outlaw. Together, they conjure up a successful business at a market outpost selling oily cakes to hungry traders; the recipe requires a very scarce commodity around those parts: cow’s milk. It’s one-part heist film and another part buddy adventure, with a tender—and often humorous—friendship at its center. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Flight Attendant\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (HBO Max)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Based on the novel by Chris Bohjalian, this smart, taut HBO Max thriller stars Kaley Cuoco as, well, a flight attendant who wakes up after a night of partying and realizes something very, very bad happened while she was asleep. Part mystery, part drama about the aftereffects of a traumatic childhood, and part dark comedy, it was one of the most pleasant surprises of the year, impressing with its razor-sharp tone, supporting performances (Zosia Mamet is tremendous as Cuoco’s best friend), and heartfelt work from Cuoco. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Forty-Year-Old Version \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Radha Blank’s debut as a feature film director, writer and star is an engaging portrait of an artist at an existential crossroad, professional and personal. This is a refreshingly specific mid-life crisis, one borrowing from Blank’s own life as a born-and-bred New York writer and rapper known as RhadaMUS Prime. It’s funny and poignant, and the banter and characters feel real and alive. Radha the character may lack confidence at times, but real-life Radha the filmmaker is very self-assured. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris, Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Good Place, Season 4 \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(NBC, Netflix, Amazon Prime) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The road to this perfectly poignant finale wasn’t smooth. Much of seasons 3 and 4 lacked the bite of the earlier seasons, and as the gang fought to prove that there was a fundamental glitch in the sorting of heaven and hell, it felt almost like Mike Schur and his team were spinning wheels. But they stuck the landing anyway, bringing back some of that subversiveness by daring to suggest there can come a point when you feel as though you’ve done all you wanted to do in (the after)life and it’s time to move on. It’s a dark thing to contemplate, but it’s also honest. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Great \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Hulu)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Billed as “An Occasionally True Story,” this series about young Catherine (Elle Fanning) and her ill-fated marriage to Emperor Peter of Russia (Nicholas Hoult) is stuffed with gleefully ahistorical elements that’ll send students of Russian history into aneurysms. Fanning is terrific as an idealistic (and self-satisfied) would-be social reformer, while Hoult’s Peter is a nightmare—a sociopathic boor poured into a pair of tight leather pants. \u003cem>The Great \u003c/em>was created by Tony McNamara, based on his 2008 play. McNamara went on to co-write 2018’s \u003cem>The Favourite\u003c/em>, and if you’ve seen that film, you know what to expect here—yes, bustles and corsets, wigs and snuffboxes, but also crisp ripostes, lacerating insults and dialogue that sizzles with withering wit. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Harley Quinn\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (DC Universe and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Given the sheer tonnage of live action superhero shows on TV, it’s notable that the most gonzo, subversive, hilarious, action packed, explicit and entertaining take on the DC comics universe is actually this animated series. Originally created for the streaming service DC Universe, it now lives on HBO Max, where \u003cem>Big Bang Theory\u003c/em> alum Kaley Cuoco voices the Joker’s former girlfriend as an unpredictable, profanity-slinging romantic who resists the ex who exploited her. It’s a comedy of sorts where even Batman is a bit of a doofus, featuring Harley leading a team of misfit baddies who struggle for recognition as Gotham City’s leading villains, redefining adult-oriented superhero stories in the process. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Haunting of Bly Manor \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first installment of this Netflix series\u003cem>, The Haunting of Hill House\u003c/em>, was packed with plenty of good, ghostly scares—but it lagged in the middle, and whiffed the ending. With \u003cem>The Haunting of Bly Manor\u003c/em> creator and showrunner Mike Flanagan hasn’t simply found a new author to riff on (Henry James, instead of Shirley Jackson) he has seriously course-corrected. Though it parcels out the scares more thinly than \u003cem>Hill House \u003c/em>did, \u003cem>Bly Manor\u003c/em>‘s story is tighter, and it nails the all-important dismount in a sincere, humane and bittersweet way that directly addresses the nature, and the purpose, of grief. It’s not overtly tidy or dully expositional—yet it feels, in the best way, inevitable. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>I Hate Suzie\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>\u003cstrong> (HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This British series—just eight episodes, as is their wont—stars the great Billie Piper as an actress whose nudes end up on the Internet after her phone gets hacked. She then proceeds to make a series of \u003cem>wildly\u003c/em> terrible decisions to deal with it—or \u003cem>not\u003c/em> deal with it, as the case may be. It won’t be for everyone. Think of it as the anti-\u003cem>Ted Lasso—\u003c/em>there’s little here that’s comforting or warm. Try it on for size: Watch the first episode, in which a huge crowd comes tromping through her home for a photo shoot just as she’s first finding out about the leaked nudes. She keeps trying to find some privacy—and keep her husband from finding out—in a long stretch of tense, claustrophobic, downright nightmarish scenes, many of which take place entirely in a tight close-up of Piper’s face as she attempts to keep from panicking. If it grabs you, you’ll watch the rest of the episodes through your fingers—but you will watch them, compulsively. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>I May Destroy You\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (HBO and HBO Max)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michaela Coel’s series about a woman exploring the aftermath of a sexual assault shone a spotlight on Coel’s own acting, writing, and in some cases directing. It also became a broader examination of ethics in sex and relationships, from the traumatic to the questionable to the unkind. The supporting cast and dizzying structural turns made the HBO show one of the most exciting of 2020. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes, Aisha Harris, Eric Deggans, Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Invisible Man \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(HBO, HBO Max and numerous rental sites)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elisabeth Moss stars as a woman who begins to fear she’s crazy when she keeps sensing her dead abusive husband everywhere. From there, the film becomes a consideration of paranoia, trauma and ultimately the desire to reclaim a connection to reality that’s come undone as a result of repeated, relentless gaslighting. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>John Mulaney and the Sack Lunch Bunch \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Point of order: This comedy special debuted on Dec. 25, 2019—after we made our annual list—so it slides in here on a technicality. But it certainly belongs—no comedy special has won me over so hard, so completely. Mulaney’s idiosyncratic sensibility might seem an odd fit for what is essentially an extended riff on old children’s television programming, but it works seamlessly here. That’s a product of the writing, which is wry but never cynical, but it’s also an outgrowth of the casting. These kid actors aren’t pushing it—they easily find Mulaney’s particular comedic frequency, and stick to it. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Last Dance\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Basketball legend Michael Jordan looms over every frame of this revealing documentary series first shown on ESPN, and not just because it expertly documents his final championship season with the Chicago Bulls in 1997-98. It’s an incisive look at how that team became a world-crushing, pop-culture-dominating force, with special detail on how Jordan built his legend. Other stories also resonate: How Dennis Rodman nearly committed suicide before he joined the Bulls; how teammate Scottie Pippen was continually underpaid; how Jordan was merciless about pushing his teammates and cultivating grudges to boost his performance. Jordan was involved as a producer and had to approve use of the Bulls’ behind-the-scenes footage, giving him even more control. But despite his influence, this miniseries offers a never-before-seen look at a once in a generation team. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Lovecraft Country\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (HBO and HBO Max) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Packed to bursting with symbolism, special effects, allegory, social messages, reinvented horror tropes and enough plot to require a YouTube explainer for every episode, this audacious take on Matt Ruff’s 2016 novel is a lot. But its story, placing a Black family at the heart of a pitched battle with a white family of witches in the Jim Crow-era 1950s, is a marvel of ambition and craft. Comparing the horrors of racism to the supernatural horrors found in novels by H.P. Lovecraft—himself an infamous xenophobe and racist—reinvents the genre in unexpected ways. And the work of executive producer/writer/director Misha Green to showcase the power of Black love and family in a series dropping during the summer’s reckoning over systemic racism and police brutality, was exquisitely perfect timing. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans, Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Lovers Rock \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Amazon Prime) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This entry in Steve McQueen’s excellent \u003cem>Small Axe \u003c/em>anthology series will surely make you want to seek out its soundtrack, which is bubbling with classics of the reggae subgenre from which it gets its title. But as you follow these young West Indian Londoners mingling, dancing, flirting and rebuffing aggressive strangers at a lively house party on one evening in 1980, it will also transport you to a realm of beauty and intimacy. It’s a musical reverie that manages to capture the exultation of the arrival of the weekend, and the sanctity of Black community. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Mucho Mucho Amor\u003c/em>\u003c/strong> \u003cstrong>(Netflix)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Netflix presented this documentary about legendary astrologer Walter Mercado to an audience that included both people who grew up watching him on television every day and people who knew him hardly at all.

The vaguely odd, singular tone of that first series persists, as does the many Italian actors’ tendencies to emphasize words that native English speakers wouldn’t necessarily emphasize, and insert long, meaningful pauses (creator Paolo Sorrentino loves his pauses) where native English speakers wouldn’t. It all adds to the sense that you’re watching the show from across a vague, yet palpable cultural divide—the ecclesiastical drama as Mentos commercial. Despite the title change and the swapping out of Jude Law’s Pius XIII for John Malkovich’s Sir John Brannox, Sorrentino’s camera still tracks slowly and languidly through immense arched hallways, vaulted rooms and lush gardens, pausing to alight upon small, telling details. Malkovich revels in his portrayal of Brannox as a louche, mascara-wearing British fop who flounces through life—a man who can be counted upon to find the nearest chaise in any room and recline upon it as if he has just been roughly flung there. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Normal People\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Hulu)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sally Rooney novel about two young students who fall in love and watch their lives intersect over many years was a hit, and adapting it into a limited series was a challenge since it’s so reliant on the interiority of the lead characters. But leads Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal brought their scenes together an intimacy and grace that kept the wide-ranging story in focus. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>On The Record \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(HBO Max)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making a documentary about the reckoning over sexual harassment in music would have been too broad an assignment for any filmmaker. So it makes sense that this one is narrower: It is primarily about allegations against hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, and even more specifically about Drew Dixon, an A&R executive who says she saw her career founder after being assaulted by Simmons. — \u003cem>Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Ozark, Season 3\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics who dismiss this drama about a family juggling internal drama and FBI scrutiny while laundering money for a Mexican drug cartel in the Ozarks (some have dubbed it “Breaking Bad: The Family Edition”) have missed the point. Especially in this year’s powerhouse third season, Ozark raised its game, adding Janet McTeer as a domineering cartel lawyer and Tom Pelphrey in a shamefully under-recognized turn as the bipolar brother of matriarch Wendy Byrde, played by Laura Linney. Pelphrey was heart-rending as the only person who saw how terrible the Byrdes’ activities were, despite his mental illness. And the show’s ability to keep viewers invested in Jason Bateman’s numbers whiz, patriarch Marty Byrde—no matter who he gets killed or rips off—is nothing short of amazing. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>P-Valley \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(STARZ) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In lesser hands, Uncle Clifford (Nicco Annan)—the towering, flamboyant non-binary strip club owner whose drawl kind of sounds like Katt Williams—could have easily turned out to be little more than sassy caricature. But Katori Hall’s soapy melodrama about a rural Mississippi town and its colorful inhabitants takes its characters seriously, and over the course of this crackling first season they emerge more unique and interesting than their “types” might initially suggest. The show also brings a new level of respect to the artistry and precision of pole dancing—among the highlights are those extensive routines backed by dirty, thumping Southern hip-hop. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>The Queen’s Gambit\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before I saw one scene of chess play, I was all in for a miniseries showing a talented, self-possessed woman mastering a game dominated by men in the 1950s and ’60s, knocking them off like clay pigeons on her way to the world championship. But this series, crafted by Scott Frank based on a 1983 novel, also plays like a superhero origin story. In a magnetic performance, Anya Taylor-Joy brings liquid eyes and an inscrutable manner to chess prodigy Beth Harmon, who must overcome substance abuse, the influence of her suicidal mom and a sexist world to reach her goals. Toss in a period-specific, lavish production and direction that actually makes chess look interesting, and you have the ingredients of a modern TV masterpiece. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Ted Lasso\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Apple TV+) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Saturday Night Live\u003c/em> alum Jason Sudeikis is funny, bumbling and occasionally heartbreaking as Ted Lasso, a stupendously optimistic American college football coach hired to lead a Premiere League soccer team in England. The owner is actually trying to sabotage the team by hiring Lasso, who knows nothing about soccer—or “football,” as they call it in Britain. But she doesn’t realize his true superpower is that he’s so gosh darned nice. It may sound a little hokey, but \u003cem>Ted Lasso\u003c/em> somehow builds a wonderful comedy around the healing power of niceness—deflating any hokum with a well-timed joke or two. And considering how tough 2020 has been, we all could use a lot of that message right about now. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans, Linda Holmes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Tiger King\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> (Netflix) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The subjects of this docuseries became the butt of a thousand punchlines, as viewers dug into the tawdry tale of Joe Exotic—a publicity-seeking, pistol-packing character running a private zoo in Oklahoma who was convicted of paying a hitman to murder his longtime nemesis, self-styled animal conservationist Carol Baskin. Still, the series itself is an amazing achievement, exploring the eccentric and often exploitive underworld of exotic animal collectors and conservationists. Joe Exotic was the show’s unstable center, given to stunts like running for president and participating in an unofficial, three-way same sex marriage. But the show also featured footage filmed over years, as directors caught crucial moments on film and climbed inside the heart of a devastatingly dysfunctional subculture. — \u003cem>Eric Deggans\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Time \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(Amazon Prime) \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a profound sadness at the core of Garrett Bradley’s arresting documentary about Fox Rich, a Louisiana woman who spent decades tirelessly contesting her husband Robert’s 60-year prison sentence for a crime they both committed out of economic desperation. But there’s also a sense of optimism humming beneath it all, particularly in how Rich’s story unfolds on screen: via footage from approximately 100 hours of daily video diaries she made of herself and their children over the years, in the hopes of eventually having the opportunity to show it all to Robert. Bradley and editor Gabriel Rhodes take this treasure of a time capsule and turn out an absorbing masterpiece. — \u003cem>Aisha Harris\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>What We Do In The Shadows, Season 2 \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>(FX and FX on Hulu)\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That’s not to say there weren’t plenty of creative additions—Mark Proksch’s cardigan-clad “energy vampire” Colin Robinson, for example, the embodiment of all things evil … and beige. But in the second season, a stronger, more linear plot involving the show’s secret weapon (Harvey Guillén as Guillermo, the Staten-Island-based vampires’ long-suffering thrall/assistant who discovers as dark, hilarious truth about himself) leaves the viewer with the impression that the show has clicked into its groove. And speaking of groove: If the show did nothing but grace us with the presence of the marvelous Matt Barry at his bombastic best here playing the preternaturally self-impressed vampire Lazlo, it would be enough. — \u003cem>Glen Weldon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2020 NPR.

For a lot of us, podcasts have been a means for socially distanced yet intimate moments with friends, family and strangers. So we’ve put together our favorite episodes from this year, with you and your loved ones in mind.

For some, that meant facing the inner work we need to do in order to feel like our best selves. On \u003cem>Truth Be Told\u003c/em>, we tap Wise Ones to answer listener questions. One big question came from a listener who asked for help healing from her trauma: “I’ve always been known as that kid that was clumsy, and I never thought to connect it to my trauma. What practices can I engage in to realign my body with myself?” Author and trauma specialist Resmaa Menakem came through with steps to help her (and all of us) peel back the layers so we can begin to heal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-13890186\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-800x450.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-800x450.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-1020x574.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-160x90.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-768x432.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-1536x864.png 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-2048x1152.png 2048w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/2-1920x1080.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another episode we love is \u003cem>Rightnowish\u003c/em>’s “\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13879924/felicia-and-karega-are-angel-parents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">‘Angel Parents’ Karega and Felicia Bailey on Grief and Love\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>For the Movement: “\u003ca href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/housing-as-reparations/id1531354937?i=1000494426366\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Housing as Reparations\u003c/a>” from \u003cem>Sold Out\u003c/em>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California has been grappling with a housing crisis and structural racism for decades.

And on the city level, San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley have given various pandemic-relief grants to artists, arts nonprofits and small businesses. But most of these grants have been doled out in one-time payments of $25,000 or less, which hasn’t come close to covering music venues’ costs.

By coming together across the United States, the venue owners of NIVA have flexed their collective economic muscle. “We are now seen as a very viable, organized group,” says Mayeri.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Both sides, Democrats and Republicans, believe that saving arts and culture across the country, saving our stages, is important in the fabric of communities,” he continues, referencing \u003ca href=\"https://loopchicago.com/assets/f4fdbc1e00/Arts-in-the-Loop-Study.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a Chicago study\u003c/a> that found that every dollar spent on live entertainment generates $12 for the local economy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thanks to NIVA’s awareness campaign in Congress, Mayeri is optimistic that the Save Our Stages Act now has support on both sides of the aisle, and it is included in the Senate’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000176-487c-d3e7-a3ff-dbfcd7ed0000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bipartisan relief bill\u003c/a>.

Even before the pandemic, independent music venues already operated on razor-thin profit margins because of high real estate costs. “The state of California should have a $50- to $100-million fund to support music venues and performing arts theaters,” Mayeri proposes. As of the 2019 fiscal year, California ranks 26th compared to other U.S. states in \u003ca href=\"https://nasaa-arts.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/NASAA-FY2019-SAA-Revenues-Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">per capita spending on the arts\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have to rebuild—we’ve been decimated,” says longtime artist manager Michelle Campbell, whose clients, like rapper \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13853543/genre-defying-rapper-mahawam-grapples-with-an-hiv-diagnosis-on-their-new-ep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mahawam\u003c/a>, have built up their fan bases by touring independent venues. “We need funding for that, [even] if you have to entice corporations, give them tax write-offs and have them donate to cultural endowment funds. … There needs be something on all levels—city, state and federal—to rebuild the cultural landscape, because it’s going to be different. Especially when you have these long-term bars and venues that have closed permanently, like Starline, which was our cultural hub. How do we get something like that back?

In April, the city began distributing $4.5 million in \u003ca href=\"https://berkeleyrelieffund.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">relief funding\u003c/a> among arts nonprofits, small businesses and vulnerable tenants. San Francisco and Oakland have led their own relief effort that have included grants and loans for small businesses, arts nonprofits and individual artists. Additionally, San Francisco has \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13888342/sf-clubs-and-bars-welcome-mayors-relief-effort-yet-too-little-too-late\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">waived payroll taxes\u003c/a> and other government expenses for bars and clubs, and created the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13886812/san-francisco-expands-reopening-with-outdoor-live-music-and-other-entertainment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">JAM Permit\u003c/a>, which made it easier to book live music in outdoor dining areas and other city-designated Shared Spaces before the region went into its current lockdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as the San Francisco Venue Coalition argues, these efforts, while appreciated, have been insufficient to address the specific needs of music venues. Payroll taxes, for instance, are only a small fraction of a venue’s expenditures, and the JAM Permit is geared towards a restaurant booking a jazz trio or DJ, not a promoter putting on an outdoor concert. The SFVC wants direct financial support instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lowdermilk and the SFVC have given the San Francisco Entertainment Commission a detailed policy proposal that asks for $48 million in funding for independent venues. This would allow the city to cover the operating costs of around 50 venues for 16–18 months of closure with the funds it receives from the federal government’s second stimulus package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That will be a one-time payment, and hopefully by next summer we’ll reopen, and hopefully venues will have survived,” Lowdermilk says. “I think there are a lot of opportunities for our city government to help us, and we want to be there to be able to have that economic activity on the return, to help our city recover.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Without Federal Help, California’s Options are Limited\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The SFVC’s proposal is currently being considered by the Entertainment Commission, but it would require the approval of Mayor London Breed, whose office told KQED in a statement that without federal funding, the city is stretched beyond its capacity to maintain even its basic services. Acknowledging the hardships small businesses face, a spokesperson for the mayor wrote that the city’s CARES Act funding from the first stimulus package has been spent on the immediate needs of the pandemic, such as testing, quarantine housing, contact tracing, food security and personal protective equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Without additional financial support from the federal government, cities all across the country, like San Francisco, will need to make budget cuts and hard trade-offs,” the mayor’s office wrote, adding that even basic services, such as the Municipal Transportation Agency, are facing potential layoffs and budget cuts. “San Francisco needs additional federal support in the weeks and months ahead so that we can continue our COVID-19 response [and] support businesses—including entertainment and nightlife venues—and stabilize city services like Muni.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Supervisor Matt Haney, who represents the nightlife-heavy Tenderloin and South of Market neighborhoods, says that his office is exploring other funding opportunities for venues, even if federal relief doesn’t come in the near future. [aside postid='arts_13890048']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have an emergency reserve. It’s possible we could pull some money from that,” he says. “I think this is incredibly urgent, and if there’s any flexibility with spending, this should be something that is prioritized—even as a lifeline for the next three months to get us to a point where, hopefully, we have more robust support from federal government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal government help is also crucial in order for California to step in on a state level, says State Senator Scott Wiener. “Only Congress has the ability to deficit spend, only the federal government has the ability to print money. We need a significant new PPP program to support these businesses,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wiener says Governor Gavin Newsom has expressed an urgency to help small businesses in the next budget cycle in January. Indeed, Newsom recently announced a \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2020/11/30/governor-newsom-announces-immediate-assistance-for-businesses-impacted-by-covid-19-including-temporary-tax-relief-and-500-million-in-grants/#:~:text=The%20Governor%20announced%20the%20creation,the%20health%20and%20safety%20restrictions.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new, $500 million program\u003c/a> that will distribute grants of up to $25,000 to small businesses.

It’s highly improbable that they’ll resume business by then. (The State Legislature killed a bill sponsored by Wiener that would have extended eviction protections through the end of the pandemic—it was strongly opposed by the real estate industry.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once a music venue gets evicted or breaks its lease, it may be gone forever. That’s because of a lack of adequate rental properties, argues Allen Scott, a co-owner of The Independent and The New Parish and the head of concerts and festivals at Another Planet Entertainment. “If you’re the owner of a restaurant, you lay off all your employees, you break your lease, you cancel your insurance—you literally get rid of every expense that you have. Your hope is that when you can open back up again, you can negotiate a new lease … and you can move forward,” Scott says. “A music venue cannot do that because there are not that many spaces we can go into—otherwise it would be a lot easier of a business.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Other Options While the Federal Stimulus Stalls?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Even as city and state governments await federal funding, some entertainment industry leaders say there’s more that can be done locally to support live music.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One criticism has come from arts presenters who feel that the performing arts have been unfairly left out of California’s reopening efforts. Before the current upswing of COVID-19 cases that landed most of California in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11847641/california-tightens-coronavirus-restrictions-most-counties-must-close-nonessential-indoor-businesses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">purple tier\u003c/a>, indicating unmitigated spread, San Francisco moved to allow indoor dining at 25% capacity of up to 100 people; outdoor religious services with up to 200 people were also allowed. But there was no official pathway for outdoor, masked and socially distanced performing arts events—even though the city didn’t stop thousands of people from \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/article245535745.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">partying on Ocean Beach\u003c/a> during Burning Man weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lack of consistency frustrated venue owners and arts presenters, who believe that they have the tools and expertise to throw safe gatherings—and badly need the income. “We have hundreds of people who work for us who we’d like to give some employment to, some artists we’d like to give employment to … and more than anything else, create an environment that would be safer than what is currently happening,” Fred Barnes, general manager of The Chapel and co-founder of the \u003ca href=\"https://independentvenuealliance.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Independent Venue Alliance\u003c/a>, said at an August Entertainment Commission hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13825287\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13825287\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2018/02/MG_7650-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"The crowd at The Chapel in San Francisco on the third night of the 2018 Noise Pop Music and Arts Festival.

In an email to KQED, a spokesperson from the City Attorney’s office called it a potential “super spreader event.” In October, the SFIAF \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13888163/an-sf-arts-presenter-sues-the-city-and-state-to-allow-outdoor-performances\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">filed a lawsuit\u003c/a> against the city of San Francisco and state of California, claiming that the performing arts should be the same way as religious services and political activity in California and San Francisco’s reopening efforts because they, too, are protected by the first amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We just want parity with those types of activities,” says SFIAF director Andrew Wood. The governor’s office sided with SFIAF in court and issued an interim directive to allow outdoor performances with 100 attendees or fewer pending local health officials’ approval. But the city of San Francisco is still in a legal battle with SFIAF, and the festival is using its \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfiaf.org/december_12_event\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">virtual holiday party\u003c/a> to raise money for legal fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social gatherings of any kind are off while California remains in the purple tier. But Wood says he wants the court to recognize the arts as a first amendment-protected activity so that they can be included in future reopening plans when virus rates go down and other activities like outdoor dining resume.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shannon Amitin from the \u003ca href=\"https://sfqueernightlifefund.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Queer Nightlife Fund\u003c/a> agrees. The nonprofit organization has been giving out micro-grants to bartenders, sound techs, performers and DJs from LGBTQ+ bars and clubs since the pandemic started. Amitin says that in addition to improving the unemployment system, which has subjected some furloughed workers to \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/california-divide/2020/11/low-on-help-expired-unemployment-boost-edd-debacles-sink-jobless-californians/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">months-long wait times\u003c/a> for relief, the city can help independent promoters and artists by providing guidelines for outdoor, socially distanced events that aren’t tethered to outdoor dining. “We really need to take a harm reduction approach to events,” says Amitin. “Folks are still going to gather, so let’s give them the tools and the ability to do it safely.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the San Francisco Venue Coalition’s part, Lowdermilk says that it only makes financial sense for its venues to operate at 100% capacity. “We don’t want to push this. We want our patrons and staff to be healthy,” he says. “And we’re only interested in reopening at full capacity. Any sort of limited-capacity situation doesn’t make sense for us—the numbers don’t work out for venues. … It’s a very low-margin industry as it is, and we need to fill our rooms to be profitable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That won’t happen until the vaccine is widely available—which means that venues will continue to bleed money, and go out of business, until the federal stimulus arrives.\u003c/p>\n\n",

And on the city level, San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley have given various pandemic-relief grants to artists, arts nonprofits and small businesses. But most of these grants have been doled out in one-time payments of $25,000 or less, which hasn’t come close to covering music venues’ costs.

By coming together across the United States, the venue owners of NIVA have flexed their collective economic muscle. “We are now seen as a very viable, organized group,” says Mayeri.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Both sides, Democrats and Republicans, believe that saving arts and culture across the country, saving our stages, is important in the fabric of communities,” he continues, referencing \u003ca href=\"https://loopchicago.com/assets/f4fdbc1e00/Arts-in-the-Loop-Study.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a Chicago study\u003c/a> that found that every dollar spent on live entertainment generates $12 for the local economy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thanks to NIVA’s awareness campaign in Congress, Mayeri is optimistic that the Save Our Stages Act now has support on both sides of the aisle, and it is included in the Senate’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000176-487c-d3e7-a3ff-dbfcd7ed0000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bipartisan relief bill\u003c/a>.

Even before the pandemic, independent music venues already operated on razor-thin profit margins because of high real estate costs. “The state of California should have a $50- to $100-million fund to support music venues and performing arts theaters,” Mayeri proposes. As of the 2019 fiscal year, California ranks 26th compared to other U.S. states in \u003ca href=\"https://nasaa-arts.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/NASAA-FY2019-SAA-Revenues-Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">per capita spending on the arts\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have to rebuild—we’ve been decimated,” says longtime artist manager Michelle Campbell, whose clients, like rapper \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13853543/genre-defying-rapper-mahawam-grapples-with-an-hiv-diagnosis-on-their-new-ep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mahawam\u003c/a>, have built up their fan bases by touring independent venues. “We need funding for that, [even] if you have to entice corporations, give them tax write-offs and have them donate to cultural endowment funds. … There needs be something on all levels—city, state and federal—to rebuild the cultural landscape, because it’s going to be different.

In April, the city began distributing $4.5 million in \u003ca href=\"https://berkeleyrelieffund.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">relief funding\u003c/a> among arts nonprofits, small businesses and vulnerable tenants. San Francisco and Oakland have led their own relief effort that have included grants and loans for small businesses, arts nonprofits and individual artists. Additionally, San Francisco has \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13888342/sf-clubs-and-bars-welcome-mayors-relief-effort-yet-too-little-too-late\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">waived payroll taxes\u003c/a> and other government expenses for bars and clubs, and created the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13886812/san-francisco-expands-reopening-with-outdoor-live-music-and-other-entertainment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">JAM Permit\u003c/a>, which made it easier to book live music in outdoor dining areas and other city-designated Shared Spaces before the region went into its current lockdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as the San Francisco Venue Coalition argues, these efforts, while appreciated, have been insufficient to address the specific needs of music venues. Payroll taxes, for instance, are only a small fraction of a venue’s expenditures, and the JAM Permit is geared towards a restaurant booking a jazz trio or DJ, not a promoter putting on an outdoor concert. The SFVC wants direct financial support instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lowdermilk and the SFVC have given the San Francisco Entertainment Commission a detailed policy proposal that asks for $48 million in funding for independent venues. This would allow the city to cover the operating costs of around 50 venues for 16–18 months of closure with the funds it receives from the federal government’s second stimulus package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That will be a one-time payment, and hopefully by next summer we’ll reopen, and hopefully venues will have survived,” Lowdermilk says. “I think there are a lot of opportunities for our city government to help us, and we want to be there to be able to have that economic activity on the return, to help our city recover.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Without Federal Help, California’s Options are Limited\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The SFVC’s proposal is currently being considered by the Entertainment Commission, but it would require the approval of Mayor London Breed, whose office told KQED in a statement that without federal funding, the city is stretched beyond its capacity to maintain even its basic services. Acknowledging the hardships small businesses face, a spokesperson for the mayor wrote that the city’s CARES Act funding from the first stimulus package has been spent on the immediate needs of the pandemic, such as testing, quarantine housing, contact tracing, food security and personal protective equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Without additional financial support from the federal government, cities all across the country, like San Francisco, will need to make budget cuts and hard trade-offs,” the mayor’s office wrote, adding that even basic services, such as the Municipal Transportation Agency, are facing potential layoffs and budget cuts. “San Francisco needs additional federal support in the weeks and months ahead so that we can continue our COVID-19 response [and] support businesses—including entertainment and nightlife venues—and stabilize city services like Muni.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Supervisor Matt Haney, who represents the nightlife-heavy Tenderloin and South of Market neighborhoods, says that his office is exploring other funding opportunities for venues, even if federal relief doesn’t come in the near future. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That’s because of a lack of adequate rental properties, argues Allen Scott, a co-owner of The Independent and The New Parish and the head of concerts and festivals at Another Planet Entertainment. “If you’re the owner of a restaurant, you lay off all your employees, you break your lease, you cancel your insurance—you literally get rid of every expense that you have. Your hope is that when you can open back up again, you can negotiate a new lease … and you can move forward,” Scott says. “A music venue cannot do that because there are not that many spaces we can go into—otherwise it would be a lot easier of a business.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Other Options While the Federal Stimulus Stalls?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Even as city and state governments await federal funding, some entertainment industry leaders say there’s more that can be done locally to support live music.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One criticism has come from arts presenters who feel that the performing arts have been unfairly left out of California’s reopening efforts. Before the current upswing of COVID-19 cases that landed most of California in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11847641/california-tightens-coronavirus-restrictions-most-counties-must-close-nonessential-indoor-businesses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">purple tier\u003c/a>, indicating unmitigated spread, San Francisco moved to allow indoor dining at 25% capacity of up to 100 people; outdoor religious services with up to 200 people were also allowed. But there was no official pathway for outdoor, masked and socially distanced performing arts events—even though the city didn’t stop thousands of people from \u003ca href=\"https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/article245535745.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">partying on Ocean Beach\u003c/a> during Burning Man weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lack of consistency frustrated venue owners and arts presenters, who believe that they have the tools and expertise to throw safe gatherings—and badly need the income. “We have hundreds of people who work for us who we’d like to give some employment to, some artists we’d like to give employment to … and more than anything else, create an environment that would be safer than what is currently happening,” Fred Barnes, general manager of The Chapel and co-founder of the \u003ca href=\"https://independentvenuealliance.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Independent Venue Alliance\u003c/a>, said at an August Entertainment Commission hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13825287\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13825287\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2018/02/MG_7650-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"The crowd at The Chapel in San Francisco on the third night of the 2018 Noise Pop Music and Arts Festival.

In an email to KQED, a spokesperson from the City Attorney’s office called it a potential “super spreader event.” In October, the SFIAF \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13888163/an-sf-arts-presenter-sues-the-city-and-state-to-allow-outdoor-performances\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">filed a lawsuit\u003c/a> against the city of San Francisco and state of California, claiming that the performing arts should be the same way as religious services and political activity in California and San Francisco’s reopening efforts because they, too, are protected by the first amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We just want parity with those types of activities,” says SFIAF director Andrew Wood. The governor’s office sided with SFIAF in court and issued an interim directive to allow outdoor performances with 100 attendees or fewer pending local health officials’ approval. But the city of San Francisco is still in a legal battle with SFIAF, and the festival is using its \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfiaf.org/december_12_event\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">virtual holiday party\u003c/a> to raise money for legal fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social gatherings of any kind are off while California remains in the purple tier. But Wood says he wants the court to recognize the arts as a first amendment-protected activity so that they can be included in future reopening plans when virus rates go down and other activities like outdoor dining resume.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shannon Amitin from the \u003ca href=\"https://sfqueernightlifefund.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Queer Nightlife Fund\u003c/a> agrees. The nonprofit organization has been giving out micro-grants to bartenders, sound techs, performers and DJs from LGBTQ+ bars and clubs since the pandemic started. Amitin says that in addition to improving the unemployment system, which has subjected some furloughed workers to \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/california-divide/2020/11/low-on-help-expired-unemployment-boost-edd-debacles-sink-jobless-californians/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">months-long wait times\u003c/a> for relief, the city can help independent promoters and artists by providing guidelines for outdoor, socially distanced events that aren’t tethered to outdoor dining. “We really need to take a harm reduction approach to events,” says Amitin. “Folks are still going to gather, so let’s give them the tools and the ability to do it safely.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the San Francisco Venue Coalition’s part, Lowdermilk says that it only makes financial sense for its venues to operate at 100% capacity. “We don’t want to push this. We want our patrons and staff to be healthy,” he says. “And we’re only interested in reopening at full capacity. Any sort of limited-capacity situation doesn’t make sense for us—the numbers don’t work out for venues. … It’s a very low-margin industry as it is, and we need to fill our rooms to be profitable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>2020 threw the music industry for a loop. So many listeners said they had a hard time keeping up with new releases. Instead, old favorites became their emotional-support companions as they navigated a completely new reality. The artists themselves also had to make difficult adjustments: many asked themselves whether it was worth it to drop projects they recorded in the before-times. Were songs about pre-pandemic life still relevant? Did fans want music that reflected what was going on in the world or an escape?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the year progressed, the answer proved to be a combination of both. Some of our favorite music gave us catharsis, some reflected our pain and some offered a joyful vision of what’s possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below, KQED Arts & Culture contributors give us their top Bay Area albums of the year. Whether you’re into rap, indie rock, classical, jazz, folk or pop, there’s something for you on this list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, it’s worth noting, independent artists are cut off from touring and need our financial support now more than ever.

Klyde and producer RobLo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The album is full of heavy bass lines and the gangsta-lifestyle lyrics you’d expect from The Jacka. There are references to drug consumption and distribution on “They Know What This Is” (featuring Paul Wall and Boo Banga) and evidence of extraterrestrial life on “Ancient Astronaut” (featuring Killah Priest). “We Outside,” a standout track with a catchy hook sung by what sounds like a chorus of children, is a bit ironic for 2020—but keep in mind it was released before shelter-in-place orders came down. When the Pittsburg-based MC drops the biographical bar, “Love me cause I’m gangsta, but I’m really trying to teach Islam,” I was reminded of my appreciation for an artist who so passionately balanced his human flaws and religious beliefs. \u003cem>—Pendarvis Harshaw\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=202612447/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Discos Resaca Collective and Mariposas Del Alma, \u003cem>Y Te Cuento\u003c/em> (self-released)\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The first full-length album from cumbia collective \u003ca href=\"https://www.discosresaca.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Discos Resaca\u003c/a> is a masterclass in what makes the Bay Area yell, “Wepa!” \u003cem>Y Te Cuento\u003c/em> (\u003cem>And I’ll Tell You\u003c/em>) melds traditional cumbias from Central and South America with hip-hop and oldies to create a sound that’s powerful in its imagery and danceability.

San Francisco born-and-raised composer Jacob Garchik’s spiraling “Storyteller” weaves snippets of Seeger’s singing and speaking voice, riffing on subjects as varied as his work with ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax and Marlene Dietrich’s German-language take on “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” (“Sag’ mir, wo die Blumen sind”). And the version of folksinger Zoe Mulford’s “The President Sang Amazing Grace,” which singer Meklit performs with quiet intensity above long, spartan string chords, recalls what it means to be human in the face of disaster. \u003cem>—Chloe Veltman\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"autoplay *; encrypted-media *; fullscreen *\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"450\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:660px;overflow:hidden;background:transparent;\" sandbox=\"allow-forms allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-storage-access-by-user-activation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\" src=\"https://embed.music.apple.com/us/album/let-me-go/1531051491\" width=\"100%\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Shy’An G, \u003cem>Let Me Go\u003c/em> (STP)\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you prefer a more lyrical flavor of hip-hop, look no further than \u003ca href=\"https://music.apple.com/us/album/let-me-go/1531051491\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shy’An G\u003c/a>, a Berkeley rapper and producer whose \u003cem>Let Me Go\u003c/em> positions her as a multifaceted artist to watch.

On the project, her rhymes move freely between motivation, social critique and clever witticisms. Thoughtful gems like “Who gets offended by generosity? / Hard work, patience, agility” from the somber, piano-driven “Remember This Day” sit comfortably beside the bass-heavy rambunctiousness of “Don’t Lose Focus” (a standout line: “My grandma in her 80s and she still rock stilettos”).

The album jostles us gently on the synth pop swing of “Close Your Eyes,” and comforts us with the sea foam-like rhythm of “Faster Than Before” and hypnotic depths of “Still Dreaming.” Producer Akiyoshi Ehara sets up canvases for us to splash into like gooey oil paints as we navigate through St. Juste’s elegant neo-R&B delivery.

Sonoma Mountain, where songwriter \u003ca href=\"https://www.ismaymusic.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Avery Hellman\u003c/a> lives on a ranch, seems to have protected the North Bay town: Fires have a hard time descending downhill, and Petaluma contains less fast-burning vegetation than surrounding areas, which bought firefighters time. Hellman’s debut full-length album, recorded under their folk project Ismay, is set on Sonoma Mountain, and spends its eight tracks saying thank you to the land. Opener “A Song in Praise of Sonoma Mountain” imagines the flora and fauna of the ranch singing their own expressions of joy, while “When I Was Younger I Cried” uses river rocks and mountain sides as metaphors for gender identity. It’s an utterly lovely feat of folk imbued with gentle gratitude for Northern California. \u003cem>—Jody Amable\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Instead, old favorites became their emotional-support companions as they navigated a completely new reality. The artists themselves also had to make difficult adjustments: many asked themselves whether it was worth it to drop projects they recorded in the before-times. Were songs about pre-pandemic life still relevant? Did fans want music that reflected what was going on in the world or an escape?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the year progressed, the answer proved to be a combination of both. Some of our favorite music gave us catharsis, some reflected our pain and some offered a joyful vision of what’s possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below, KQED Arts & Culture contributors give us their top Bay Area albums of the year. Whether you’re into rap, indie rock, classical, jazz, folk or pop, there’s something for you on this list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, it’s worth noting, independent artists are cut off from touring and need our financial support now more than ever. So if you like what you hear, consider buying it on Bandcamp or iTunes. \u003cem>—Nastia Voynovskaya\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3156800882/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" href=\"https://thaoandthegetdownstaydown.bandcamp.com/album/temple\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Thao & The Get Down Stay Down, \u003cem>Temple\u003c/em> (Ribbon Music)\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>We children of immigrants carry the weight of our parents’ struggles on our shoulders; they sacrificed so much, so we feel the pressure to repay them by achieving the American dream. \u003ca href=\"https://www.thaoandthegetdownstaydown.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Thao Nguyen\u003c/a> flips the narrative with her piercing howl on the title track of \u003cem>Temple\u003c/em>, where she writes from the perspective of her mother, who fled Vietnam as a war refugee. With lyrics like “I lost my city in the light of day / Thick smoke and helicopter blades,” the punchy dance-rock track creates images of destruction, loss, survival and hope so visceral, they send chills. It’s a theme especially resonant during a year filled with a different kind of grief, where many of us have had to say goodbye to loved ones and old ways of life. \u003cem>Temple\u003c/em>’s hard, driving rhythms and fuzzed-out guitars give voice to necessary conversations about immigration, queerness and the quest to live fully in one’s power. \u003cem>—N.V.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

There are references to drug consumption and distribution on “They Know What This Is” (featuring Paul Wall and Boo Banga) and evidence of extraterrestrial life on “Ancient Astronaut” (featuring Killah Priest). “We Outside,” a standout track with a catchy hook sung by what sounds like a chorus of children, is a bit ironic for 2020—but keep in mind it was released before shelter-in-place orders came down. When the Pittsburg-based MC drops the biographical bar, “Love me cause I’m gangsta, but I’m really trying to teach Islam,” I was reminded of my appreciation for an artist who so passionately balanced his human flaws and religious beliefs. \u003cem>—Pendarvis Harshaw\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=202612447/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Discos Resaca Collective and Mariposas Del Alma, \u003cem>Y Te Cuento\u003c/em> (self-released)\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The first full-length album from cumbia collective \u003ca href=\"https://www.discosresaca.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Discos Resaca\u003c/a> is a masterclass in what makes the Bay Area yell, “Wepa!” \u003cem>Y Te Cuento\u003c/em> (\u003cem>And I’ll Tell You\u003c/em>) melds traditional cumbias from Central and South America with hip-hop and oldies to create a sound that’s powerful in its imagery and danceability.

San Francisco born-and-raised composer Jacob Garchik’s spiraling “Storyteller” weaves snippets of Seeger’s singing and speaking voice, riffing on subjects as varied as his work with ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax and Marlene Dietrich’s German-language take on “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” (“Sag’ mir, wo die Blumen sind”). And the version of folksinger Zoe Mulford’s “The President Sang Amazing Grace,” which singer Meklit performs with quiet intensity above long, spartan string chords, recalls what it means to be human in the face of disaster. \u003cem>—Chloe Veltman\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"autoplay *; encrypted-media *; fullscreen *\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"450\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:660px;overflow:hidden;background:transparent;\" sandbox=\"allow-forms allow-popups allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-storage-access-by-user-activation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\" src=\"https://embed.music.apple.com/us/album/let-me-go/1531051491\" width=\"100%\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Shy’An G, \u003cem>Let Me Go\u003c/em> (STP)\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you prefer a more lyrical flavor of hip-hop, look no further than \u003ca href=\"https://music.apple.com/us/album/let-me-go/1531051491\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shy’An G\u003c/a>, a Berkeley rapper and producer whose \u003cem>Let Me Go\u003c/em> positions her as a multifaceted artist to watch.

On the project, her rhymes move freely between motivation, social critique and clever witticisms. Thoughtful gems like “Who gets offended by generosity? / Hard work, patience, agility” from the somber, piano-driven “Remember This Day” sit comfortably beside the bass-heavy rambunctiousness of “Don’t Lose Focus” (a standout line: “My grandma in her 80s and she still rock stilettos”).

Last year she and her sister, vocalist Marjan Vahdat, collaborated with Kronos Quartet on a gorgeous album exploring themes of displacement and exile, \u003cem>Placeless\u003c/em>. Living in Berkeley with her husband, multi-instrumentalist and arranger Atabak Elyasi, she crafted a breathtaking collection of new songs on \u003cem>Enlighten the Night\u003c/em>. While working mostly within classical Persian modes, she weaves a numinous musical mélange with the Norwegian jazz trio of pianist Tord Gustavsen, bassist Gjermund Silset and drummer Kenneth Ekornes. Her compositions illuminate the work of beloved Persian poets like Rumi, Hafez and Omar Khayyam while also drawing on essential 20th-century Iranian writers like Nimā Yushij and Mohammad Ebrahim Jafari, the great poet and painter who provides the words for the quietly ecstatic opening piece “The Act of Freedom.” \u003cem>—Andrew Gilbert\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=983504168/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Seshen, \u003cem>CYAN\u003c/em> (Tru Thoughts)\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>It feels like an eternity ago when \u003ca href=\"https://theseshen.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Seshen\u003c/a> debuted the \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/lR7AmjLCnWk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">short film\u003c/a> to accompany the release of their third LP, \u003cem>CYAN\u003c/em>, at San Francisco’s Rickshaw Stop in late February.

She seemed both at peace and nearly coming apart at the seams at the foot of the ocean’s crashing waves. \u003cem>CYAN\u003c/em> explores the many dimensions of depression, and today it feels prescient considering St. Juste is not alone in taking a long hard look at ourselves and what the heck is happening around us. The album jostles us gently on the synth pop swing of “Close Your Eyes,” and comforts us with the sea foam-like rhythm of “Faster Than Before” and hypnotic depths of “Still Dreaming.” Producer Akiyoshi Ehara sets up canvases for us to splash into like gooey oil paints as we navigate through St. Juste’s elegant neo-R&B delivery.

It wasn’t a first responder, a quick-thinking housemate or even a sign from above. Sonoma Mountain, where songwriter \u003ca href=\"https://www.ismaymusic.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Avery Hellman\u003c/a> lives on a ranch, seems to have protected the North Bay town: Fires have a hard time descending downhill, and Petaluma contains less fast-burning vegetation than surrounding areas, which bought firefighters time. Hellman’s debut full-length album, recorded under their folk project Ismay, is set on Sonoma Mountain, and spends its eight tracks saying thank you to the land. Opener “A Song in Praise of Sonoma Mountain” imagines the flora and fauna of the ranch singing their own expressions of joy, while “When I Was Younger I Cried” uses river rocks and mountain sides as metaphors for gender identity. It’s an utterly lovely feat of folk imbued with gentle gratitude for Northern California. \u003cem>—Jody Amable\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
