This series follows the intertwined destinies of two families: one wealthy and connected by blood, the other a close-knit group of orphans and outsiders brought together by hardship and affection.

The Abandons cast: Lena Headey and Gillian Anderson star

I’m really excited about this new series! It’s set way back in 1854 in Washington Territory and centers around the strong women leading two families. One family has money and a long history together, while the other is made up of orphans and people who’ve had to build their own support system. It’s a fascinating contrast, and I think it’s going to be a really compelling story.

The Abandons Review: American Primeval Just Found Its Biggest Western Competitor

by

From the start, the series The Abandons appears to be tackling important issues of representation. It features Lena Headey (known from Game of Thrones) and another actress in leading roles, playing characters who are very different but complement each other well. While the supporting cast is still largely white, several key roles are played by actors who are Black, Indigenous Salvadoran-Mexican, and Native American. Importantly, these characters – and the show’s female characters in general – aren’t defined by how they differ from the typical white, Christian male perspective of 1850s America. This gives The Abandons a unique strength, allowing its story to develop over its seven episodes, though some fundamental issues still hold it back.

Once upon a time, Larry Fink thought Bitcoin was little more than a glorified money-laundering scheme. Fast forward a few years, and now he’s overseeing the world’s largest Bitcoin ETF at BlackRock. Surprise! Apparently, he had a “soul-searching” moment during Covid-by which we mean, he met some crypto advocates, and his views suddenly flipped like a pancake on Sunday morning. Now, he calls Bitcoin “an asset of fear,” bought by people who are either scared of their money losing value or worried about the apocalypse. No biggie.
