The TV shows we watch say a lot about us. A cynical person might prefer light-hearted comedies as an antidote to the crushing existential weight of their everyday life. A former youth-group leader might be obsessed with religious iconography and pop-culture depictions of the devil. People are weird, and it shows in their Netflix queues. Made You Look is a podcast that tries to work out why we love the things we love. And if Jane and Kurt have to watch each other's favourite TV shows to do it...

Optical Phenomenon

Get ready to be transported to an alternate universe where it's always 2004: the pant-legs are wide, the special effects are bad, and Aussie children's show Parallax is on your screens!

Kurt makes Jane watch this gem of a mid-00's tv show this week, and we talk about the history of LotteryWest, colour-grading (or the lack thereof) and the relfection of society's evils through fictional alternate universes.

This season is called Rose-Coloured Glasses, as we look back on the nostalgia-filled shows from our childhood
