Okay, I'm late to the show and just finished watching season 1.

I can just imagine the pitch for this show and this is how it would've gone...
'So there's a group of people we just drop in on and this community is caught up in a hole of a town they can't get out of. Then weird stuff happens'.
'Like what?'
'Have you seen Lost? Stuff like that, you know weird ass sh*t'.
'But that's already been done'.
'Yeah, but it's different... Ooooh, and it has Vampires!'
'Okay, and then you have those that talk to and see the dead, with some Alice in Wonderland sh*t going on too.'
'Right... so what keeps the audience coming back?'
'Well obviously those that die come back in memory scenes.'
'Then there's trees, strange trees.'
'And you got some Melrose Place sh*t goin' on too.'

You get the idea, I hope.

This is the third time or so I've watched WH13. Generally a fun show. 'Pete' throws out some funny one liners and there's a range of great guest stars.

I don't really recommend binge watching the show because you'll notice the inordinate amount of crazy annoying times 'Myka' says Pete's name. I mean enough that you expel an 'Urrrrgh' out loud, and not just 'Pete' but 'Peeeeeeete'.

Also the show introduced a gay character but it was done well and tasteful. His preference isn't the focus, and the character isn't an obnoxious extrovert that just makes you want to turn off. A lot of newer shows could learn much from the way WH13 did it without pissing people off by pushing an overt Agenda.

Just grab some popcorn and have some fun watching Warehouse 13.

I'm so glad Futurama is revived (rivalling cats lives)! Bring it on! Such a great scifi comedy.

I've forced myself to watch this first season and the last two episodes are yet to come.

Firstly I want to ask WTF happened to this show? With Devlin and Glasser at the helm (Devlin brought us the Stargate movie, and Glasser, Stargate SG1) I kinda expected a far better show than this pile of stinky crap.

There is far too much criticize about this show but I can summarise it with a 3/10.

It's appalling to put it kindly.

Well this was a Fun Surprise! Started watching the first ep and was so hooked I watched the whole season.

Great cast, wickedly funny and quality writing. Loved the way they incorporated the finger clicking and 'Thing' is so friggin Cool! Other family members are great too.

Has a kind of Buffy flavour to it. If you liked the Addams Family, dig dark humour, just good shows that are off tilt then get... start watching Wednesday! Solid 8.5!

The start of season 20 along with the end of 19 is going down hill fast. Probably best to bow out gracefully now and wind this up while it's still reasonably watched.

Season 20 should be the last and even make it a 13 episode season.

This is a very candid group of interviews that I really don't foresee any other President or Prime Minister of other countries doing to this extent.

There was little that wasn't discussed. There was obviously sensitive parts of a conversation that Putin chose not to speak of and those were so as not to embarrass his counterparts.

I've seen many of his speeches and interviews over the time and I have to say President Putin presents himself honestly as he does in these interviews. He has a very good sense of humour too.

I encourage anyone that has a 'media outlook' on Me Putin to watch these interviews and make up your own mind about this man. He clearly loves his country and her people. It it's also good to listen now, as numerous 'truths' people have presumed to be correct, then get further details from Putin himself only solidifies what independent journalists have said all along and that contradicts the main stream media versions of the same subjects.

If you have any interest of world events and politics this is a must watch miniseries.

Finished watching Reacher this week.
Finally a show with depth, some dry wit that punches you in the side when you're not expecting it and some moments that are quite touching, again when you least expect it.
Reacher, the character is good example of this series... it's not a character with a well crafted sponge costume on, it is a character that you get what you see, brawn, a unit that can crash through obstacles to crush his target.
If you like action, disappointed with flimsy stories and characters and are completely over current trends... Welcome to your new favourite show!

Yeah! Great wind up of Season 8. What's better is The Blacklist is green lit for Season 9. Now the only trouble is waiting for Season 9 to be run.

This is a quick review of the eps since the return of the show after the impromptu bug pause. The show is kicking it out of the park, seriously! Some were thinking the show would lose its direction on but I'm very happy to say it seems more like there is a better focus on the characters. There's some seriously great acting by 'Lois' in ep08.

Ever thought of being A Superhero trying to juggle saving the world and making not only a relationship working but keeping a whole family purring along? If you are a Clark Kent or a Lois Lane these Superheros are making it work. I think that's what's so good about this show... It's not a show about that's already been done and done well, but this is a whole new look at this Superhero Duo as mom and dad with the trials and tribulations of the importance of making a family life work. I recommend everyone watching this. Hoping it won't be smashed to a pulp with SJW politics. That would be bad, especially with how good it's started. Well done writers, cast n crew and network! Well done indeed!

Raised by Wolves first 3 episodes were amazing. Sci Fi at its best. The best way to encapsulate these first episodes without spoilers is very easy... Ridley Scott. So looking forward to the rest of the season.

Now that I've finished season 2, Infamy, my expectations were met. The beauty about this series is The Terror uses historical stories. This one particularly was interesting as it focused on A Japanese community that have been in America for some time with grown American born children. Then Pearl Harbor occurred. All the Japanese were rounded up and put into internment camps. Quite distressing. A demonic spirit was following a family member. The whole saga of the spirit and the trauma of this proud, respectful community plays throughout the war. This season was full of subtitles so if you don't like subtitles you may find it frustrating, but it's definitely worth the watch.

The new announcement of the shows cancellation is not terribly surprising.
I'm a fan of Dormers so I'm hoping to see her in something as challenging yet not as convoluted as PDCoA.
I think it was trying to do too much. Like spreading butter on bread way too thin.
Maybe a sequel of the original Penny Dreadful now be looked at a little more positively.

I'm a big fan of the original Penny Dreadful which was without a doubt brilliant.
After watching up to ep 5 so far of Penny Dreadful :City of Angels I'm finding this show, even though the show is far removed from the original, the darkness and poetics of the genre is still there.

The portrayal of Natalie Dormers' several characters emit her artistry in her craft and that being a beacon in this show is undeniable. I love watching Natalie work (yeah okay, I'm a fan and have a crush).

There are other big names in this season and there isn't a slouch in any one of them. But Natalie, so far, blitzes them.

Not being American myself seeing the show based on early Los Angeles and the racial tensions I still find interesting as the time and location for the show. I'm curious enough to continue watching this iteration of Penny Dreadful. I cannot at this stage rate the series equal to the original but having said that allow this series to stand on its own merits. That is the best way to enjoy Penny Dreadful : City of Angels.

Extremely disappointed this show was cancelled! Are you kidding? Had some good actors interesting writing with some elements of historical truth as the basis.

One of the very few shows I was looking forward to every week. Aside from the panic of a basic bug going around reducing the content that is available to us this was a gem shining from the pile of manure we are forced to rummage through.

Not happy with the History channel, not happy at all.

I am loving this show!
It falls in line, in creative excellence and artistry story telling as well as massively entertaining characters that we are used to in Breaking Bad.
If you liked Breaking Bad you cannot go past this brilliance from the talent that brought us BB.

These later seasons are turning from gold to platinum. If you haven't watched this show yet, stop everything, and binge watch it till you catch up!

OMG... Season 7 premiere was hard core! The most intense TV I've seen to date, and be aware there is a lot of gore in this episode, even for TWD. I know why they put ads in episodes now, for the views to catch their breath! Enjoy all!

Such a great dark show! I find Dexter to be intriguing to say the least and the ' Dark Passenger ' I'm sure we can all relate to in some form or another. I miss these characters and would've liked to have seen an alternative end. A must see, even if it is just for the exceptional guest roles of Jimmy Smits and a huge role well portrayed by John Lithgow. Do not miss this show.

GoT is set in a complex fictional world with an incredible array of characters, strong, with a depth hard to find in most shows let alone one based in a fantasy world. Each actor has put their all into their part. Winter is Coming.
