Get Millie Black is not just a detective story, but also a ghost story, a Jamaican folktale, and a refreshingly nonjudgmental exploration of queerness and its home on the fringes of society.
The show is also its own beast. Beyond the mystery Millie must solve are the mistakes she must atone for by making new ones, all while she searches for her true self in the rubble of her old life.
The finale, 'Curtis,' magnifies them, not only revealing whether Millie solves the mystery, but also how she resolves her past meeting her future.
James discusses the show's subversion of traditional genres, Millie's successes and shortcomings as a character, and what the show's final episode tries to say about our relationship with the dead.
