Little Fires Everywhere S1
Based on Celeste Ng’s 2017 bestselling book, the eight-part drama series follows the intertwined fates of the Richardsons – a picture-perfect, privileged white American family – and enigmatic African-American mother and daughter Mia and Pearl Warren.
Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon (Big Little Lies, Walk the Line, Wild, Legally Blonde), Golden Globe nominee Kerry Washington (Scandal, Django Unchained), and Teen Choice winner Joshua Jackson (The Affair, Dawson’s Creek) co-star.
Little Fires Everywhere has an 80% critics rating and is #73 on Rotten Tomatoes’ list of the Best TV Shows of 2020 (So Far). The Guardian calls it “moreish, searing, excellent”, while CNN says it’s “one of those rare multi-generational dramas where the arcs involving the kids are every bit as good as the adults’.”
Little Fires Everywhere is unfortunately no longer available on Showmax.
