Netflix’s upcoming show ‘This Is A Gardening Show’ will focus on the joy that humans can derive from connecting with the earth.
The show, executive-produced by actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis, offers a refreshing, whimsical take on gardening. This means that the actor doesn’t pretend to be an expert at gardening or farming. Rather, he approaches gardening with curiosity, in a manner that he and the viewer will learn together.
An impressive aspect of the series is the natural aesthetics of its setting and lighting, which are devoid of hyperreality or overproduced images.
Galifianakis eclectic humour also shines through, making his hosts, children, and adults alike burst into laughter.
The show seems to have struck a balance between entertainment and education, with the bits of insight thrown out by the Galifianakis.
“People have the potential in them to find beauty and happiness in all this. I certainly have. For human beings and for the world itself, the only future is agrarian.”
