With the festive season upon us, we wanted to impart some words of encouragement:
If Bobby Shmurda can make the Billboard charts from prison in 2018, you can:
–Look enthused during your office’s Kris Kringle reveal
–Navigate Christmas Eve pandemonium at Coles
–Wrangle the AUX cord from your nephew on Christmas Day
If all else fails, here are December’s best titles on Netflix.
Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle (film)
Neo Yokio: Pink Christmas (anime series)
Out of Many, One (documentary)
The Innocent Man (documentary)
Sunderland ‘Til I Die charts the team’s highs and lows of last season, which culminated in a humiliating second relegation. It’s a labour of love from lifelong friends/SAFC fans Ben and Gabe Turner, Ben Winston and Leo Pearlman, whose successful production studio Fulwell73 (The Late Late Show) was even named after Fulwell end in Roker, and the year Sunderland last won the FA Cup.
The eight-part docuseries encompasses on-pitch action as well as candid interviews with former CEO Martin Bain, sacked manager Simon Grayson, and of course the club’s die-hard unwavering fan base.
Sunderland ‘Til I Die airs December 14.
