I Saw the TV Glow isn’t a movie for everyone. It’s slow, surreal, and refuses to explain itself in the way most people are used to. Some viewers might walk away calling it boring or confusing, that’s fair. But for a certain audience, for people who have lived through the kind of quiet alienation and identity confusion this film portrays, it hits like nothing else. When you get it, when you see yourself in the characters, in their longing, their fear, their detachment from the world this movie doesn’t just make sense, it feels personal. It wraps itself around your experiences and refuses to let go. It’s one of those rare pieces of media that speaks directly to the people who need it most. It’s beautiful, aching, and strange, and I hold it incredibly close to my heart. I feel lucky to be part of the audience that truly understands it.

I was literally yelling through half the movie — super stressful, but in a good way. If you’re into that kind of intense, edge-of-your-seat experience, I definitely recommend it. It’ll get your heart racing for sure
