Nutty Bites: Anne With an E – Dinner and a Movie – Dog Days of Podcasting 2018

Anne With an E is a new and old Canadian staple. A remake of a classic show based on a classic book, Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery. It’s a co production between Netflix and the CBC. This reimagining of the orphan from Prince Edward Island has me in love. I laugh and cry along with the characters. Also, the actor playing Matthew was a regular on Road to Avonlea, which is another Canadian classic show set in the same location. There is so much Canadian culture in this show I just adore it. Also I love the stories about her adoptive parents and how it reflects the needs and emotions of older people. Plus there is a some serious diversity in this period drama and they don’t shy away from realistic reactions. Still, the characters you love see the goodness in the world and when face to face with people who are different are much more accepting than one imagines for the setting.
