‘I’m a Virgo’
Boots Riley’s I’m a Virgo will blow you away! The Prime Video series is offbeat and weird, and offers profound commentary on capitalism, violence and obsessions with superheroes. Jharrel Jerome plays 13-foot-tall teenager Cootie as he struggles to assimilate into society because he was shielded away from the real world and pumped full of conspiracies when he was younger. The towering teen meets a trio of social activists who introduce him to the local party scene, which brings him much more attention than he’s ready to handle. The absurdist comedy is thrilling and vibrant, and unapologetic in getting its message across. And two words: giant baby. Yes, there’s a giant baby in the debut episode. You’d be a real loser not to tune in.
