Really liked this but...


I just finished binging this and I found very enjoyable, the "Quarantine" episode was great. The one thing that did annoy me though (probably more than it should) was the Rachel character not knowing that "Beowulf" is a poem.
Is that not something that is taught in English class in High School?

Oh geesh, who cares.

I mean, seriously, this is your one takeaway from the show?? 🙄

Who the hell pays attention in High School? It's literally the most worthless form of education imaginable.

I think what classics you read in public school is a crap shoot. Some curriculums include Beowulf, others don’t. I think Beuwulf though has some sort of cultural reference that one would have heard of it and looked it up.
