Netflix's Midnight Mass

I started watching a new Netflix horror series Midnight Mass. In the series, Catholic families and a Catholic parish are featured pretty prominently in the series hence the name. One of the things I was impressed by was that the show really delved into spiritual side of things more than what is normally done in most television, and that the writers actually know the faith or at least have done their homework ;because, a lot of times it is quite obvious to me that they only have a very superficial understanding of Christianity, let alone understand the differences of various Faith traditions within Christianity. So anyway the show has a lot more Catholicism than your average TV show, but of course since this is suppose to be some kind of horror / supernatural thriller from Netflix don't expect it to be like something from a Catholic Network like EWTN where the Gospel and dogma etc. is the main point.

The series has parental warnings of language, gore, violence and smoking.

I will note the show seems to makes a big ooopsie when it comes to Ash Wednesday. Which should be in February in winter time. The show has people getting the ashes, around Easter, and then going to a big church Pot luck outside with the ashes on their head etc. Which I don't think would happen etc. penance and fasting times, usually conflict with most things like Pot lucks etc. In the Coptic Church we have our Agapes during certain times of Lent, especially around Holy Week, Summer time etc. where you can find something like falafel, fish etc. served, but it looked to me glancing at the table they had lots of stuff like fried chicken etc. that wouldn't fit an agape type dinner during fast time.
