The Recruit

This series season 1 is absolutely superb. The humor is sarcastic to the max in a way that it's almost a comedy. But never getting there. It's extremely well done. It's lovely unrealistic, never gets too serious and yet manages to captivate you into binge watching the whole thing.
Can't wait for season 2.

Superb series.
- Original.
- Interesting story line.
- Impressive acting
- Surprising.
- An amazing look into the brain of a schizophrenic - or not?
- not a just-another-super-hero series

Suits

One of my most favourite shows, great sarcasm, wits, very smart/intelligent, great personalities and hell I'd love to be like Harvey :)

I was a bit worried about yet another woke crap series - but..... aside one totally racist "I am not having this conversation with a white guy" remark, this is actually how things should be: just a really good series! there is a high Tom Clancy / Jack Ryan vibe to it.

Not sure why Morgan Freeman is on the poster here on Trakt, he's nowhere in the series. At least not in the first 6 episodes. Completely binged this....

Season 1 was absolutely superb. Binge watched it competely. Season 2 starts out great too.
I can give only 1 negative comment about the series, which is that supposedly the girls are around 16 - which just doesnt match up with their behaviour and actions (and how they look, as the actresses are real life 24'ish). Would have made so much more sense if they'd be 18/19/20 or so. Would not have had to change anything for the story, in my opinion.

Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan

stunningly good series. It's a totally new interpretation of Jack Ryan and his road to fame within the CIA, loosely based on the original novels and unrelated to any movie or whatever. I enjoyed season 1 a lot. It's graphical and definitely worth a R rating for all that can lead to it. Looking forward to season 2 and 3 (season 3 has already been confirmed before season 2 finished shooting)

Continuum

I loved this show. Season 1 and 2 were superb. Too bad it all went to sh*t after that. The going back in time and creating alternate timelines was the worst they could do to this series. Really a shame, would have enjoyed to watch more of season 1/2 quality.

Orphan Black

great show!
I was thinking about rating a 9 or 10, but decided that I cant really think of much to improve in this series so I stick with a 10.
some plot twists you can see coming a mile away, but.... most of them really caught me off guard.
one of the best series on my watchlist for sure.

Mr Inbetween

Quite enjoyable series. If you like series like Banshee, Justified and Barry, deffo give this a try. Quite short episodes, so a whole season is gone before you know it.
Season 3 is the last and has a pretty decent ending to it.

Bosch: Legacy

I think I may have seen some episodes from the original series, but not many.
Bosch: Legacy can be watched perfectly fine without having watched the original series.
In a way I think I enjoy watching this series more than the original.

Only Murders in the Building

This series is a serious hidden gem and so far I have been honestly surprised with how much I enjoyed this. Only saw first 8 episodes of season 1 and I can only hope they will be able to keep up the quality.
It's slow paced, but.... wow, quite amazing. Steve Martin is less Steve and Selena is a whole lot less Selena. Superb!
The chemistry between the unlikely partners in crime is superb.
Here and there it goes a bit into over-acting and crazyness overdrive, but usually they manage to keep it in the acceptable range and I can even smile about it :-
I am very curious to how they will manage to extend this story into a second (and even third) season.

Season 3 was supposedly announced for October 2021 ! Very surprising news!

Legion

Season 1 : 10 out of 10. Great series, unique, refreshing.
Season 2 : Hmpf.... wtf happened to season 1's writers?! 7 out of 10, some episodes came close to season 1 quality (8 or 9 out of 10), most mediocre at best.
Season 3 : omgwtfbbq. 5 out of 10 max. Attempt at doing time travel in a unique way perhaps was succesful, but everything else was totally and utterly crap. Huge disappointment. The final 2 episodes saved it, but only just.

Ascension

I really dont understand why this mini-series was not actually picked up as a pilot to a real series. It really deserved at least another mini-series or shortened season. Great story and great basis for a very interesting plot. I do not agree on the "bad acting" comments at all.

Person of Interest

I really enjoy this show, the humor is top notch, and a good amount of action.

Falling Skies

my God... episodes are getting worse and worse and worse.
Season 4 is really a total disappointment.
I hope they will make an end to the series soon, before it gets cancelled without a proper ending :(

Acting seems to be going downhill, even by the regulars in the cast, conversations are so predictable they hardly have to say anything anymore at all anyway and this whole Messiah crap is really getting to me (Frank Herbert, anyone?). Seems the creators are totally out of inspiration and have started copying random other series and movies and throwing it into a mixer and then hope for a proper story coming out of it. That is definitely a fail.... they really should have brought an end to this series at season 3, instead of dragging a great series on and on into oblivion.

season 1 and 2 were superb, now it's just stretching things thin :(

Obliterated

This is like a modern version of Lethal Weapon on nearly every kind of upper known the man :) Very much enjoyed the first few episodes. Sure its all over the top. Like.... by a lot. But in a fun way. Just dont take it all too serious. The series doesnt take themselves very serious either :)

Homeland

I've enjoyed this series a lot, each season has its own distinct set, characters and a small set of main issues. Season 5 was a bit less good, season 6 was omg dreadful. It was slow and nearly painful to get through season 6. And then came....... season 7. In 1 word: WOW. Loved it. They totally aced that season. Ok, the tiny plothole still occurred here and there, but at least its not a total insult to everyone's intelligence (compared to for example the utterly retardedness in Blindspot). Season 6 was a good basis for the events in season 7, so you cannot really skip season 6 altogether, but I postponed getting into season 7 as I was not expecting a huge improvement over the endless drama of the previous season. Praise the Lord, my expectations were too low :-)

Justified

I basically binged this entire series. I enjoy cop-shows, but this outshines nearly any out there.
Only a few get close. Banshee being one.
There are very few weak episodes in this series.
Season 6 is a bit too graphical for my taste, but at least its a very good and proper ending and gives a close to basically all story lines.
Very enjoyable.

Woke report: the woke virus had not hit us yet when this series was made. So no crazy woke crap.

very disappointing this never got picked up. looked like a great pilot to a full season series :(

Brave New World

The series is seriously good; in between all the sex scenes there is an amazing story. Now I am all for the great sex of the beautiful people - which is actually done very tasteful - but in this case I think a little less graphic might have helped the series pick up more viewers.

But the story is truely amazing. It's striking. It's relevant. It's sci-fi and yet realistic. And when you consider the series is (loosely) based on a book from the 1930s; its hard to imagine how much 2020+ it is.

I loved the movie Equilibrium, which has a openly very dark side to it, with feelings being not allowed. This series Brave New World has the same basis though its the opposite with obligatory fake happiness. I would say that Brave New World actually perhaps is even more dark...

I really enjoyed the story of the series and I totally binged it in just 3 days!
There is an ending to the series, though largely open, but still giving just enough closure to accept it as a series finale........ but I do hope that there will be another season afterall.

The Expanse

Really superb show. It has many elements from many shows I enjoy, but putting them all together in the mix it comes out totally unique. Closest resembling show might be Dark Matter; which is not a bad thing :)

Reacher

I absolutely loved season 1. Season 2 not so much. Loads of plotholes and totally illogical scenes, not very intelligent dialogues and just pointless violence that really seems specifically setup to become a violet fight. Its just nothing like season 1.
Season 1 - 9.5 out of 10
Season 2 - 5.5 out of 10

Safe

Michael C Hall is showing to be (again) he's a truely good actor, carrying all of this.
Several of the supporting actors are mediocre at best. Several of the kids are truely great though.

The series is very complicated with many characters who all have their own secret agendas.
Plottwists galore. A typical Coben's series. In many ways I enjoy this more than Fool me Once or The Stranger.

I very much enjoyed this. A nice balance between drama, action and fun. There's quite some comedy in this.
It's also much more enjoyable than for example Arrow, which at some became endlessly stupid gun fights vs arrows.
The amount of fist fights in this was also not over the top (vs how it was in Dare Devil or the golden fist boy...).
Acting in this series is here and there a bit sub par (strange to come to this conclusion when you look at the actor star cast) But overall, very enjoyable series.

MODERATION EDIT: Don't use offensive words.

The Boys

This series is refreshingly different from DC and Marvel shows. I stopped watching immediately - at first- after the scène where the girlfriend gets obliterated. But gave it a second chance later, while watching alone. It's too much gore to be girlfriend-approved material.

I very much enjoyed this show; feels a lot like The Librarians, but the chemistry between the lead actors is better, the humor is better and ... well the whole show is just better.

final episode was a bit disappointing to my taste, but at least not as dreadfully bad as DEXTER.
