editThe FriendsWithYou duo
editFriendsWithYou (Artist statement, Portfolio) is an American group of two artists. Are they associated with spiritualism spirituality or something?
(And let's include Netflix series True and the Rainbow Kingdom (Guide for parents) into discussion, since the duo is behind the show.)

- I don't see any indication on their site to suggest any connection with spiritualism, at least on a quick scan. They talk about spirituality, which is quite different. If you're worried by their mention of mediums, that's Medium (arts), and again, nothing to do with contacting the spirits of the dead. Do you have any other reason for your question?

So, let's get out of this typo blunder and let me ask again. Are FriendsWithYou associated with spirituality or something? Do you think which religion or movement is their inspiration? JSH-alive/talk/cont/mail 10:58, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
- This article, which is directly cited in the Wikipedia article on FriendsWithYou as the reference to the sentence in that article which uses the word "spirituality", answers your first question. Your second question (Do you think...) is not answerable in this forum. --Jayron32 16:09, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
- How did I miss that one? Thanks. Still wondering what are influencing the group on the spirituality thing, though. JSH-alive/talk/cont/mail 16:04, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
