WTF Is The OA? Netflix Tasks Stranger Things, The Crown and More to Explain
WTF is The OA?
It's a question that has been plaguing viewers since Netflix started
its stealth promotion and subsequent release of the series from and
starring Brit Marling.
What Is The OA?
Is a question we tried to answer for you as well, the befuddling series
has Prairie Johnson (Marling) at the center of it. Prairie is a blind
young woman who disappears for years, only to return with her sight
restored, mysterious scars and a crazy story. That description is just
scratching the surface. Still confused? That's where Netflix comes in,
with the help of its other shows.
The video above features clips from Orange Is the New Black, A Series of Unfortunate Events, The Crown, Black Mirror, Stranger Things and Narcos cut together to explain the gist of the mysterious sci-fi show. However, what they don't tell you, well, spoiler alert—
The OA
stands for the original angel—that'd be Prairie—and Prairie's story
about being held captive with others who all suffered near death
experiences. The series features Prairie relaying her story to some new
followers of sorts who learn the Movements from her, they then use the
Movements (a dance of sorts) to…stop a school shooting. But, naturally
there's a twist, it seems Prairie's story—her Russian background, her
kidnapping, the whole angel deal—could all be a lie. The OA also stars Phyllis Smith, Emory Cohen, Scott Wilson, Alice Krige, Patrick Gibson, Brendan Meyer, Brandon Perea, Ian Alexander and Jason Isaacs. Still don't know what The OA is about? Season one is now on Netflix

The best 100 British novels What does the rest of the world see as the greatest British novels? In search of a collective critical assessment, BBC Culture contributor Jane Ciabattari polled 82 book critics, from Australia to Zimbabwe – but none from the UK. This list includes no nonfiction, no plays, no narrative or epic poems (no Paradise Lost or Beowulf), no short story collections (no Morte D’Arthur) – novels only, by British authors (which means no James Joyce). The British novel has influenced the form around the world for centuries, so we felt it was important to get a global perspective. The critics we polled live and work all over the world, from the United States and continental Europe to Australia, Africa, Asia, India and the Middle East. Some of the critics we invited to participate are regular book reviewers or editors at newspapers, magazines or literary blogs – Lev Grossman (Time), Mary Ann Gwinn (Seattle Times), Ainehi Edoro (Brittle Paper), Mark Medley ...
Pastor Dimas: Why I'm praying for Kim Kardashian Kim Kardashian runs fearfully to her waiting SUV with a scared looking North West in New York. New evidence is surfacing that the group that carried out the invasion of Kim Kardashian’s apartment/hotel on the evening of Oct 2 in Paris were no amateurs. The gunmen involved had a strategic plan. It is sad for anyone to experience a home invasion. My worst nightmare is to one day find a stranger lurking in my house, or to open the door and see gunmen. Only Kim K. and a select few people know all that took place in that bathroom, with wicked men, with firearms. One man has argued that you cannot get guns in Paris. He must have forgotten about the terrorist attacks in Paris. I was there, ministering with my family, and can assert that guns are on the streets of Paris. (You can find my report on Fox & Friends called "Pastor is Hungry for Prayer.") Kim K.’s life is extremely public, most of the time that...

Djokovic hoping Kyrgios can stop squandering his gifts Tennis - Japan Open men's singles final match - Ariake Coliseum, Tokyo, Japan - 09/10/16. David Goffin of Belgium reacts during a match against Nick Kyrgios of Australia. World number one Novak Djokovic hopes Nick Kyrgios can learn some "life lessons" after the Australian was fined by the ATP Tour for breaching its code of conduct during a contentious defeat at the Shanghai Masters. The Australian was beaten 6-3 6-1 by Mischa Zverev in a second-round match on Wednesday in which he put in a series of half-hearted serves and appeared to be walking off court before the unseeded German had completed his shot. The 21-year-old, who has had a number of scrapes with tennis authorities over his behavior in the past, also clashed with spectators before being booed off the court and was subsequently fined $16,500 by ...
