Very boring show. Couldn't get past three episodes. Didn't care for the characters or the plot. I really tried to like it because I saw others rate it so high, but I am now assuming they are rating it so high because it has so much lgbtq and racial stuff so you are close minded if you do not automatically think it is the greatest show. Sorry, I tried, It is horrible.
Not as bad as I was expecting it to be. They're moving pretty fast, not dragging it too much. At least the first episode was quite decent.
Edit: 5 episodes in, there's A LOT of drama, some silly plot holes and the mediocre acting continues. Still an interesting take on the universe.
I don't get what all the hype is about. It's an ok show, nothing special.
Didn't like it much. They keep you busy by focusing on the lives of the characters, and meanwhile the actually interesting bits on the story get stretched way too much. It is not exciting much, it is very predictable, and to me it feels like the producers do their best to embed their own belief systems onto the series, trying to make you see reality like they do. I really enjoyed Miguel Ángel Silvestre. He made his character Lito funny, and human. Actually the actors were all pretty good. The writing just really, really sucked, in my opinion. Or maybe I'm just getting too old for this shit. All the LBGT-stuff is really not for me, I just see them as actors, fucking. Makes me feel uncomfortable. On the other hand, I didn't know Jamie Clayton (Nomi) was actually what they call a "trans woman" in real life, but her performance was pretty good although the "help me, I'm a damsel in distress" angle was a bit too much for me.
Anyway. If you're going to watch this, don't get your hopes up about a quick revelation. None of the episodes is much different from episode 1, plot wise.
2nd season is really bad compare to the first one
The good doctor is based on a Korean drama with the same name that I already watched and liked, and this adaptation of it does not disappoint, I am really looking forward to how it will unfold
Children and teens. And more kids and teens. As a 80's kid, I know I should be all excited, but I gave up after two episodes. I didn't find anything even mildly interesting; rather, I was bored to tears. Moving on.
Killjoys Season 3 completely transformed the show - and for the better - more so than I've seen with any other show!
It evolved from funny, lighthearted in Seasons 1-2 to an epic space opera centered around a Battlestar Galactica-esque intergalactic war of the races.
Instead of standalone, unconnected bounty hunter missions, now each episode furthers an overarching plot, in addition to **multiple parallel threads* for each of a now more balanced set of protagonists, and even the villains inspire some empathy, with their own stories being shown from their perspective in parallel.
Both protagonists and antagonists - of which there are now quite a few - are more three-dimensional, with flaws, backstories, failures and even deaths - adding a sense of tragedy to what has now evolved into a very compelling Sci-Fi Drama.
Now, instead of eye-rolling cheesy humor and cliches, now you experience increasingly tense, dramatic, unexpected and sometimes tear-invoking turns of events.
It goes from just 1 plot thread involving 3 protagonists always working together to a slew of main character and multiple antagonists affiliated with different groups with sometimes conflicting or intersecting interests.
The characters have become more compelling and three-dimensional, with each pursuing varying objectives in parallel plot threads . Backstories are developed and flaws and failures are finally shown.
Dutch takes a bit of a backseat as John - and especially D'Avin - evolve to become self-reliant, overcoming challenges alone, each with their own mission. I especially appreciate how D'Avin has gone from weak, beta, follower and supporting character - all brawn and little brain - to an alpha leader and star in his own right.
The missions are now self-determined - instead of just starting off each episode with one given to them as group at the start of the episode. As the other protagonists can no longer just rely on Dutch - who has finally started to show weaknesses - to save the day, you finally experience fear and empathy with the characters and buy-in to their plights, and they evolve from supporting characters to their own leading roles.
As has become more popular since Game of Thrones, the show is no longer afraid to go so far as to kill of main characters - becoming more realistic, with an sense of danger, and adding tragedy into the mix.
Stranger Things Is Not For The Faint Hearted Especially Season 4
This is so emotional as Season 3 sets you off with a bumpy ride with lots of action, romance and it has a lot of emotional scenes along the way I highly recommend it if you have spare time to watch it. Stranger Things Season 3 is the best Season yet hears to the very long wait for Stranger Things Season 4 as it is going to be well worth it in the end. Plus my favourite characters are Mike And Eleven their Mileven romance is amazing true young caring romantic emotional love as a romantic I truly do love it.
Is this a "new version for Heroes"?
slow, boring and a bit overrated.
The third season is better paced and has a perfect balance of humor and creepy scenes, but it is also predictable, especially it's last two hours. It is best when being a "Blob / The Thing" homage with people getting devored and destroyed and "your neighbour can be one of 'em", but it all ends sadly in another monster showdown. Excellent new character additions though and the humor/homages are beautiful.
Another high praised show I could get nothing out of. The title is fitting from where I stand because the show literally killed itself. It started as a promising crime drama which turned into a political thriller that wasn´t really thrilling but instead used every cliché there is. On the plus side there is the production because this doesn´t have the flashy look of the american tv show which gives it more credebility and realism. But the plot get´s turned and twisted so many times that they squeezed the life out of it. Although the conclusion at the season two finale was good I already lost interest to care about it any more. And there wasn´t a single character I had any sympathy or cared for. I could not bring myself to watch further then season two.
Story is interesting, but can easily be condensed into fewer episodes with a cohesive storyline. Watching hour plus episodes that drag out is a chore. Instead of 10 episodes this can easily have been maybe 5 with less ambiguous parts only to be explained in later episodes.
Dance Dance Revolution, kinda like Hunger Games/3% mutant baby but with music.
