Percy Jackson and the Olympians

Is this series kept under wraps? How did I just hear about this?

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law

It was a good first episode. I hope this contues. I don't get all the hate. But if I am guessing right, people didn't like how she-hulk is instantly able to perform stuff better than bruce.

I loved this episode except for noir's untimely death. I wanted to explore more of this nuanced character. Everything else was excellent, especially the last cheering that spell trouble for the world. I expected ryan to turn to homelander.

Trailer was hilarious. I hope they don't develop romantic feelings. That would be cliche.

The Last of Us

I don't know if it is a faithful adaptaion or not. But I like it and it is one of my favoutie zombie shows.

Pros:
1. Relatable characters with good character development. The bonds between multiple characters are a joy to watch.
2. Terrifying but realistic world.
3. Superb plot.
4. Dark and gritty undertone, still manages to land some jokes
5. Talented Cast (Oberyn Martell and Lyanna Mormont as central characters, what is not to love?)

Cons:
1. Felt too short
2. Need more of bill and frank
3. Minor gripe: Some inconsistencies with how the zombies acted and how it is explained.

In the Dark

Season 1: Looks interesting. 7/10
Season 2: Nope. poor character development and plot development. Central character Murph is too much a walking disaster to root for her. 3/10
Season 3: Doesn't get any better continues the train wreck that is season 2. Will not watch the following seasons.

They had something special in first season. But ruined the show when they tried to incorporate multiple conflicting elements on the show. I would suggest you watch the first season and skip the rest.

Dark Matter

I liked it. Good story, Nice acting, Great characters, Brilliant world building. The concept of the multiverse is somewhat finnicky, But they do focus on family. I like the non rushed pace of the TV show.

Brilliant plot. Excellent characters(some are shallow). Decent comedy. I liked it. I especially liked the ADHD/Anxiety part of the MC.

Tyler is killing it as superman. But Elizabeth is not working as Lois Lane, she looks the part. But her acting is atrocious. Kids are both decent cast. The actor change irked me. But new cast looks decent. But initially their characters are too much to handle. I like that this focuses on family dynamics rather than superhuman adventures. I expected woke propagandas in season three with all the comments shouting it. But I did not find any wokeness in it. It still deals with the family of a superhero when a life threatening sickness attacks a member. But they dealt with it in a professional manner. But cliffhanger ending of season 3 left a bad taste in my mouth.

X-Men '97

This is peak television. Great characters, Excellent plot, World-class dialogues, Masterful action scenes and Brilliant BGM. I can only hope to get more of this. Everything about this screams perfections.

To me, My x-men.

Decent movie with great casting.

Scorpion

This was a bad series. Mediocre characters that devolve as the series progressed. Plot development that stuck on will they/wont they romance. Comically disastrous scenarios one after another that it becomes numb. Main characters with plot armor that will shock Naruto fans. Bad acting all across the board except for Cabe. I don't think this is an intelligent series. I ronically it is a series about high IQ individuals.

Generic romance flick. Mediocre characters and mediocre plot.

stop ending the season with a cliff hanger.

The Shield

This is a brilliant series. I had no idea what to expect next. Kept me on my toes. I especially liked the team's and his family's dynamic with Vic. Vic is a corrupt cop who is extremely selfish. He does good somethings somtimes, but he is a menace. Lots of complicated characters. Not realistic but enjoyable nonetheless.

The show was an average experience. But it did have fantastic action sequences. But if it didn't try to rip off ATLA, that would have been much better. Her powers actually didn't play that much in the series. Some characters felt bland.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians

Initial episodes are good. The casting is on point, Especially Mr. D. Way better than the movie adaptation. I hope they don't change much from the books.

Season 2 is shaping up to be even better than season 1. I love it.

Sex Education

Such vivid characters and coherent plot. I love it. I loved how the show was able to develop so much characters with out making the MC suffer. The sex education is a progressive show for it's time, but it does it with out being too much. It is a fine line. I never expected the finale to be so brilliant. Everyone got closure. I especially loved Adam's family's story.

Gen V

The portrayal of central female character was annoying. The character on paper sounds good, a character so deeply traumatised that she has to remind herself she is good all the time. But when translated on to the screen, she came out as whiny self-righteous and selfish teenager with naive world view. Other central characters are decent, not great though. I have yet to finish the first season. I expect some character development.
The world itself is great, as it shares it with The Boys. Powers are excellent. I don't mind the shoving of modern ideologies right in your face. But it did eat into the story.

ONE PIECE

This was a live action that does justice to the original. I like the fact that the live action doesn't tries to do "what would the characters do if it was real life" trick and stuck to the original. Characters were cast beautifully. Luffy was perfect so was ussop. The energy the cast brought was enchanting. I liked it.

Justified: City Primeval

It is an average show. But the last episode does deliver everything we wished for. Episodes 1-7 are 6/10 and episode 8 is 9/10. I wish the 8th episode was the beginning and the storyi progressed from there.
