Mind Your Manners
Season 1
Wed Nov 16
On Netflix
Mind Your Manners is about to give you another thousand reasons to feel bad about yourself—prepping you for dealing with your family this holiday season. If you think you know how to impress, think again because there are so many teeny tiny rules that could make the cast of Bridgerton blush if you get them wrong. But that’s part of the fun! Etiquette teacher Sara Jane Ho takes her clients through the ins and outs of high society, including how to fold your napkin and enunciate when talking about sensible dinner table topics. It’s twee and lighthearted, even if it’s a little old-fashioned—but perhaps that’s part of the intended appeal. Move over Princess Diaries, there’s a new queen of etiquette in town and she’s going to instill some genteel confidence in you yet!
Watch Mind Your Manners on Netflix on Wednesday.
From Netflix:
Have you ever wondered how to elegantly cut… a banana? Mind Your Manners follows world-renowned etiquette teacher Sara Jane Ho as she helps her students become their best selves and put others at ease, using the language of manners and etiquette. Get ready to laugh, cry, and learn a thing or two as Sara transforms her students’ lives and helps them acquire the confidence to shine in any situation – starting with a sensible spot of afternoon tea. Pinkies in or out?
