The Shivering Truth (2018–2020)
10/10
Quickly Became One of My Favorite Shows

This show is amazing. I will warn you before you jump in, it's very confusing at first. The show treats episodes like anthologies (that generally like to all tie together by the end) exploring various philosophical and emotional concepts. Although it does this in a very funny and entertaining way, and the show's sense of humor is almost adding weirdness and surreal things to already far out ideas. This show uses it's platform to explore all kinds of interesting ideas while also being funny and having gorgeous stop-motion animation. I think the reason I enjoy this show so much is that in just 11 minutes, an episode will throw so much at you that rewatching episodes is a must. I feel like the show likes to introduce concepts, and just as you start to feel like you understand what's going on they throw something else in there that throws you off the trail. Obviously this show won't appeal to all viewers, and I understand how the idea of a 'confusing show' may be off-putting. But please please give this show a shot if what I described above sounds interesting. It's surreal, it's dark, it's funny, and it explores a lot of cool concepts using metaphors you may have to watch a few times to understand.
