Netflix rang in the new year by dropping “Tidying Up with Marie Kondo,” and I am obsessed.
The show is informative, soothing, and has already made me cry ~15 times, just three episodes in! It’s difficult to point to just one reason it’s so addictive and tearjerking. Marie’s endless optimism and positive attitude is certainly a factor, as is her ability to genuinely help couples tidy their homes—and their relationships, at the same damn time!
Yes, it’s a makeover show. But Kondo’s unique methodology, calming personality, and “spark joy” philosophy make it so, so much more. If you know, you know.

Marie Kondo thinks she can get me to give up objects I have no attachment to, but joke's on her! I've seen Pixar's complete filmography, and I can form attachments to EV ER Y THING!!

I've watched the first episode of the Marie Kondo show — the one where the guy angrily demands that his part-time working wife, who raises their two toddlers alone, do more laundry — and clearly, KonMari doesn't work, because by the end of the episode he's still there
