Second Chance
Second Chance looks at media, concepts, and characters that have been deemed bad, disappointing, or divisive in some way by critics or the general public -- and tries to dig into the positives through academic and analytical (and entertaining!) video essays. Whether it’s a misunderstood masterpiece, a case of good intent vs. poor execution, or it poses useful insights on our culture as a whole, we'll figure out why and how it might actually be GOOD. So let’s dive in with an open mind, have fun, and give some of our old punching bags another shot!
