Netflix’s Bee and PuppyCat series isn’t just a continuation of the old series.
tells the story of Bee , an easygoing 20-something with a heart that’s as big as her rent is overdue. None of the other young adults living in the sleepy, impossibly chill island city Bee calls home would consider themselves as “having it together.” But Bee can’t help but feel as if she isn’t living up to her full potential because she struggles to hold down a job, even when her good friends like aspiring chef Deckard go out of their way to help her keep one.
Bee’s been fired from so many of her temp agency gigs that she barely bats an eye when she receives her latest pink slip in’s first episode. But everything about Bee’s pleasantly humdrum life takes a sudden and magical turn after she offhandedly makes a wish for another living creature to take care of, and the universe responds by dropping an adorable, ornery creature into her lap.
