While the technique is adapted from a book, the underlying structure borrows from A&E’s Hoarders and the Niecy Nash-hosted Clean House. I have not read Margareta Magnusson’s book, but from what I’ve read about it and its subtitle (“How to Free Yourself and Your Family from a Lifetime of Clutter”), I had a general idea.Īmy Poehler’s summary works catches us all up: “getting your shit together before you die so others don’t have to do it.” It’s a delight from the opening seconds, when the series opens with Amy Poehler’s narration telling us “everyone is going to die” over a montage of happy-looking people, and then assures us this will not become a slasher flick-”not these people.” Every frame drips with personality, from the people and the production. What pours out is a lot of joy and charm and swearing. Starting an episode of Peacock’s The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning is like opening an overstuffed closet.
