Interesting start. Feels pretty similar to Michael Grant's GONE novels with a darker tone, or a blend of the Leftovers and The 100 only not quite as good as either show yet (although that said, its pilot was better than The 100's pilot - the show got a lot better in season 2, though). It's got potential to be pretty good though and the approach to release it on a weekly basis rather than all at once for Netflix is certainly interesting. Will follow this as there's not much new shows out now. Cool concept though.

Public Morals

An interesting start. Like the period setting, soundtrack and atmosphere. Will be fun to see where this one goes.

Narcos

I'm hooked. Very captivating first two episodes and has a lot of potential. Could well end up being Netflix's best original series yet. Will be watching more when I can.

Dominion: 2x10 House of Sacrifice

Really solid episode. Season 2 has been excellent so far.

The Walking Dead: 6x01 First Time Again

Good premiere. Glad I caught up on this show over the Summer.

Arrow: 4x05 Haunted

This episode was awesome. Loved Constantine's appearance but he should have had more screentime though.

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

Watched this last night, excellent movie with an excellent performance from both Casey Affleck and Brad Pitt. One of my favourite modern westerns.

Manhattan: 2x10 Jupiter

Excellent finale to a terrific season. Really hope this show gets a third go. One of my favourites of the year.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Excellent movie. Easily one of the year's best and a great return to form for the franchise.

Shadowhunters: 1x01 The Mortal Cup

This was okay. Has potential but the cast needs to improve. Too much exposition.

Supernatural: 11x22 We Happy Few

Well, the stakes just got raised. Excellent episode.

Hell on Wheels: 5x08 Two Soldiers

Finally back and well worth the wait!

Elvis & Nixon

A really solid comedy that has excellent performances from Spacey and Shannon.

Arrow: 5x01 Legacy

Better than Season 4 so far but that doesn't take much and it's usually after the midseason break this show goes downhill.

One More Time with Feeling

One of the best documentaries ever. So damn good.

Pete's Dragon

An excellent, family-friendly underseen gem of 2016. A movie with heart and a great soundtrack.

Beauty and the Beast

Beauty and the Beast does admittedly benefit from a great cast who give it their all, and this does lead to some good moments here and there, but it is ultimately unnecessary and almost completely forgettable.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle

Unfortunately not quite as good as the first film, but has plenty of fun action. Some characters deserved better, though.

Blade Runner 2049

Absolutely incredible. As it stands, the best movie of the year.

Star Wars: The Bad Batch

Star Wars is turning into the MCU, relying on inter-connectivity and cameos, some work better than others - it makes a big universe feel smaller than ever. Some work better than others but at this point this time period has been done to death and I just wish the franchise would try something new. It still can't figure out what it wants its audience to be.

Gangs of London

Hard-edged, sometimes self-serious modern-day Peaky Blinders. Gets a bit too far fetched at times (there's no way half of this would be possible in modern-day London) and some of the characters are very thinly drawn, but Gareth Evans delivers some of the best possible action on television that not even the likes of Daredevil match. Could have used shorter episodes, especially in its first, though - I don't think it earns its length, or its ending.

Veep

An excellent comedy. With the end of Parks and Rec, this and Brooklyn Nine-Nine are my favourite comedies on TV right now.

The Bastard Executioner

Interesting start. Moves fairly slowly though and there's a fair amount of exposition.

Gotham: 2x02 Rise of the Villains: Knock, Knock

Wow! Season 2 is loads better. Massive improvement.

The Martian

An excellent movie with a superb cast. One of my favourites of the year. Uplifting and effective. Loved this.

A very fun, atmospheric episode. Great cliffhanger.

The Hateful Eight

Excellent film! One of my favourite Tarantino movies.

The Grinder: 1x22 Full Circle

Great finale, really hope Fox renews this show, one of the best new comedies.

12 Monkeys: 2x11 Resurrection

Really awesome episode. Great ending!

Manchester by the Sea

A powerful, emotionally investing movie with some stellar performances particularly by Casey Affleck and Lucas Hedges. Essential.
