18+Season 1
Life rarely follows a formula.
Synopsis
Lessons in Chemistry (2023), Season 1 is the eight-episode drama you can watch online on iFILM — 1950s America, where chemist Elizabeth Zott has every gift except the right to use it.
Brie Larson plays Zott as a lab tech who keeps doing real research after hours and keeps getting punished for it. Then her path bends in a direction she never planned, and she lands somewhere unlikely: hosting a daytime cooking show called Supper at Six. She rebuilds it her way, teaching the country's overlooked housewives molecular structure between recipes. Around her, Harriet fights a freeway that would gut her neighborhood, and young Mad starts pulling at the threads of a family secret.
Adapted from Bonnie Garmus's novel, the season carries a slow-burning anger under its bright surface. What works best is how it refuses to soften Zott to make her likable. Stream Lessons in Chemistry Season 1 online on iFILM.
