Sifting through Netflix's massive glut of new programming can be, if nothing else, a job in itself. Almost weekly, there's a new season of a show you started when the streamer was putting out only a few must-see programs a year—your Orange Is the New Blacks of the world, if you will—in addition to anywhere between 3 and 313 new original series and movies that require your immediate attention if you're meant to be part of the larger cultural conversation come Monday morning. It's an influx of riches, sure, but sometimes genuinely wonderful things fall between the cracks.

Let's all agree not to let that happen to Special. In Ryan O'Connell's upcoming Netflix series, the writer and creator plays a "gay man with mild cerebral palsy who decides to rewrite his identity and finally go after the life he wants." It's Netflix's first foray into 15-minute-ish long episodes, and its first season is—as previewed by the show's new trailer below—a complete and utter joy, a breath of fresh air, and a win for everyone involved. In episode one alone, there's a plot that gently skewers the modern media machine in broad strokes that are still totally unique and distinct to the show's world. It's believable and relatable and just plain good.

Special premieres on April 12 on Netflix, but you should add it to your queue now.
