Unforgettable

I really enjoy this show. It did change a lot form Season 1 moving from a local metro law enforcement to a major crimes division. Something about the chemistry between Poppy and Dylan keeps me hooked.

Bull

I am a fan of Michael's and was sad to see him leave NCIS so I was excited to see him lead his own show, that said while its an ok show I too don't see much renew potential. The main character also seems rather isolated without any real connections to other characters, despite being surrounded by them, I am hoping that develops more as the show progresses.

Ransom

While I don't necessarily disagree with the negative posts about this show I still find it strangely compelling. It could have been so much more than it is though. One of those shows you need to judge for yourself I think. I certainly won't miss it when it ends, but I will keep up with it while its on.

Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders

Enjoyed this show not a fan of the normal criminal minds. I like Alana de la Garza in most things she does. I admit I am a procedural junkie though this was a little different with as previously stated the overseas foreign elements.

Making a Murderer

Guilt or innocence aside, this really does show how flawed the legal system in the US is. And I assume this is probably similar in most western countries. The lawyers must feel like they are fighting an uphill battle against a system which claims to presume innocense but clearly assumes guilt.

When Rome Ruled

Only just watched this series despite it being 5 years old. I was hooked and really enjoyed the style and presentation of this documentary series. I was sad when it was over.

I learned an incredible amount about Roman History and therefore my own history. While I knew some of the modern day influences of the roman empire I was surprised to learn many that I was unaware of from this series.

It is quite extraordinary to think how much influence they have had and how rome really shaped the world we know.

The Orville

Quite enjoyable with a very strong star trek feel. sadly this feels more like star trek than star trek discovery, and is probably more enjoyable. Discovery is good in its own way but has no feeling of star trek to me at all. This show however has a very strong feeling of nostalgia, even though its a parody, or perhaps because its a parody.

Timeless

I really like this show the longer I watch it, the time travel almost seems to be becoming secondary to the actual plot. The chemistry of the cast is great, the acting quite good and they reveal enough of the plot to keep you interested while keeping enough secret to keep you intrigued. I like this better than legends of tomorrow.

Timeless

Feels very original to me, I have only seen the pilot episode but it had me hooked, the cast had a great chemistry, the lead is believable and the twists and turns created by the repercussions of the time travel are great. So often we see time travel without consequences, not so here.

The Frankenstein Chronicles

The attention to period detail and the quality of the acting was well above standard. I dare to say that Sean Bean carried this series. As previously stated the plot was underwhelming and stretched. It could have been covered in a movie easily. I was also dissapointed with the ending. It was way to contrived and left me dissatisfied.

I am glad to have watched it though for the atmosphere coming from sets, clothing and that visible breath was inspiring.

Jericho

Seems good so far, though while the story is very different I was surprised to see another railway historical show after hell on wheels.

Destination Truth

As a huge fan of Expedition Unknown I decided to watch a few episodes of this for some more Josh Gates goodness. Its definitely not as polished or planned as expedition Unknown, but I expected that being an older show I would hope they had improved since then. I have enjoyed the episodes so far, although I wish there was a bit more time spent explaining the legends or mythology and a little less blind blundering about in the dark blair witch style. I still would recommend this show if you enjoy Josh Gates or this style of show.

No Tomorrow

On the surface a silly and meaningless show, however the great chemistry of the cast and the well thought out plots and subtle life meanings hidden between the jokes make this show a great watch.

Take Two

I am really enjoying this show I was a fan of Rachel Bilson in Hart of Dixie and Eddie Cibrian was great in Rosewood. This show reminds me a lot of the chemistry in Rosewood, light fun procedural (well investigative) show with poignant moments. I will definitely be keeping up with this one I hope it lasts more than a season so many new good shows get canned these days. :(

No Tomorrow

I will miss this show if it is cancelled I have grown very attached to Evie and the gang. Fingers crossed it gets a renewal.

Star Trek Continues

This is an amazing and very worthy continuation of Star Trek TOS. Its hard to believe this is a fan production. Its 100% feels like real TOS. The performances by the actors and actresses are stellar, after the first episode I forgot that they were not the original actors. I was particularly impressed by Vic and the actor playing Spock. But I would be remiss not to mention all of the cast including guest stars in each episode. Every aspect of this production was professional and did not feel even a tiny bit amateur as you would expect and accept in a fan production.

I was sad to finish the series, but glad for the privilege.

Imposters

I really enjoyed the first episode of this, I hope the show keeps up the pace, it has the potential to be much better than The Catch.

Cardinal

I am really enjoying this crime/thriller/detective show. The cast are good and have decent chemistry. While the main plot is nothing extraordinary the subplots are what make this interesting to watch. Admittedly after the first episode I was not sure if it was worth continuing but as I have watched more and more, 5 episodes in now I am totally hooked.

Shooter

Enjoying this show but its fairly shallow with predictable plot turns to keep the chase on. The first episode was the best. Can't see it lasting more than a season but worth checking out if you have nothing better to watch.

White Rabbit Project

Enjoying seeing these three again as I loved Mythbusters, this is no mythbusters though, I would prefer the mythbusters format over this any day but that said its still a reasonably good show and probably a lot more educational. Somehting feels a bit too showcasey about it though.

Medici

The music is definitely praiseworthy and creates just the right mood and atmosphere.

As a period drama, fantasy show, historical inaccuracies aside, they don't claim its a documentary, this is quite a gripping show. In fact I like historical inaccuracies in these shows, without them and without the writers creating fiction, there'd be little suspense and no surprises. :)

Surviving Jack

This show is really funny. I only just discovered this and am sad it was cancelled but the episodes they made are worth watching.

Stargate Origins

I do not like the 10 minute format, but always love some stargate. I hope this leads to something else be it movies or a series. Ellie Gall is fairly good as Catherine, though I find it a bit hard to believe the german soldiers would be so lacking in any indications of intelligence. The one left to guard her didn't seem like he was capable of tying his own shoelaces.

Angie Tribeca

I tried but really struggled to get through a single episode. Highly not recommended. This stuff died in the 80's.

Shades of Blue: 1x01 Pilot

About the usual quality of Lopez's acting. I guess they are trying to make the role sexy or such. Watchable but not amazing.

Doubt

I didn't mind this show I can see why they canclled it but really there are way worse shows that survive. It always perplexes me and 2 episodes seems like making a bet and then asking for your money back in fear when the race/game starts. I usually like to see 5-6 episodes before I really get my opinion made up.

Howards End

I am a fan of Hayley Atwell and Philippa Coulthard. I have only watched one episode so far but I will definitely follow with more. Its no Downton Abbey but it has potential.

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 3x13 Parting Shot

Amazing sendoff for Bobbi and Hunter. They really got the formula right in the last minutes of the show. Hard not to shed a tear even knowing they will have their own show. I can't think of a more fitting way to have bid them farewell.

I did not like this episode as a finale. It was just wrong. nuff said.

Suits: 6x16 Character and Fitness

What a great comeback, this season started off so slow, they drug the jail story on way past its bedtime but I agree this was probably the best season finale of the series. I gave it a 10 too when I usually give the show an 8 average. I hated the episodes with Mike in jail he was meant to be a lawyer! Can't wait for season 7.
