A look back at the year we all want to end finally coming to an end.
This comic mockumentary, with great cast gives you a rerun of 2020 in full. It might feel insensitive to a lot of people but the truth is, you survived all that shit.
So Enjoy👌🏽#FreeReview pic.twitter.com/fdljcpdKRG

#deathto2020 is fucking genius. For those of you who have yet to watch the Netflix special mockumentary, it is a year end review filled with so much relatable and hilarious dialogue that I almost forgot all this shit actually went down this year…

I don’t understand the bad reviews of Death to 2020. I was laughing like a drain.

I particularly loved fire being described as “radicalised air”.

Dad: "How traumatic has a review of a year got to be for you to stay awake?"
Seeing mixed reviews of Netflix’s Death to 2020 but I rate it. The writers have picked up on our reactions and behaviours as we go this wild year really well

I see that it’s had mixed reviews, but I personally adored ‘Death To 2020’ on Netflix.

Charlie Brooker’s nightmare round-up of the year is basically his once-annual BBC2 Screen Wipe, fully extended, and now with a Hollywood blockbuster budget.
Highly recommended.
This will be the only “year-in-review” piece I watch this year. Brilliant and hilarious!! #deathto2020 pic.twitter.com/wdOtaedUUi

One thing is for sure. 2020 deserved only the wildest kind of mockumentary to commemorate it. Do give it a watch, and let us know what you think.
