https://youtu.be/AIVJzmVUU1w 2.5/10 After taking a look at “The Twilight Zone” from the late 1950’s into the 1960’s, the second iteration of the show debuted in 1985 and ran for three seasons. I am hoping things improve since this first season was an absolute disaster. The biggest problem with this first season can be summed up … Continue reading The Twilight Zone Season 1 (1985-1986)

https://youtu.be/mpa7JJBVLJM 5/10 “I’m tired, Maeve.” – Bernard Lowe (Jeffrey Wright) in episode seven of season four. I know how you feel, Bernard. After season one (9.5/10) got everyone hooked on what could be HBO’s next “Game of Thrones” type of event show and season two (8/10) still continued the intrigue and mystery from the debut … Continue reading Westworld Season 4

https://youtu.be/yQEondeGvKo 7/10 After a three year hiatus due to the China Virus and a longer filming schedule due to this being the longest season yet, “Stranger Things” finally returns to Netflix with mostly positive results, improving upon season three. There is a lot to unpack here and while I genuinely enjoyed this season, I will … Continue reading Stranger Things Season 4

https://youtu.be/Wc1cmKPY9bA 5/10 Due to the recent release of “Elvis”, I decided to binge watch everything that director Baz Luhrmann has directed. After completing his filmography leading up to “Elvis”, I landed on “The Get Down”, which Luhrmann co-created and directed the pilot for Netflix. While several aspects work extremely well, the series ultimately ends up … Continue reading The Get Down Season 1

https://youtu.be/O8TW6Ap-IYE 8/10 Best viewed after watching the 2004 docuseries (now on Netflix), HBO’s “The Staircase” shares the same title as the docuseries but is a dramatic retelling of the story of novelist Michael Peterson and the death (or murder) of his wife Kathleen. While the docuseries was highly acclaimed, I felt underwhelmed by it but … Continue reading The Staircase Season 1 (2022)

https://youtu.be/Bvv97sCcruY 5.5/10 Reviewing a limited series like this is a first for me, as you might be able to tell from the three different release date years. While the series is now finished (hopefully) and contains 13 episodes, if I would have reviewed this in 2004, I would have been reviewing the initial eight episodes. … Continue reading The Staircase Season 1 (2004/2013/2018)

https://youtu.be/78tTuVoKONg 7.5/10 Despite the horrible title of this show (seriously, try using any search engine online and looking up the word “From” and you will get a million different results that have nothing to do with this show), the debut season of “From” is a pleasant surprise, despite its similarities to another show. Before I … Continue reading From Season 1

https://youtu.be/X4QYV5GTz7c 6.5/10 Based off of the acclaimed Isaac Asimov novels, “Foundation” sees Apple TV+ throwing their hat into the science fiction and big budget ring to mostly positive results. Created by David S. Goyer (who has a career filled with mixed results) and Josh Friedman, the plan is to have eight seasons but with a … Continue reading Foundation Season 1

https://youtu.be/XByiHpUvrj0 2.5/10 WARNING: DUE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS SERIES, STRONG LANGUAGE WILL BE USED THROUGHOUT THE REVIEW…Leave it to the dipshits at Netflix to take what should be a fun and educational binge watch about swear words and turn it into a woke, cringeworthy series that forces far left politics down the viewer’s … Continue reading History of Swear Words Season 1

https://youtu.be/h9_QOD8Ec98 6/10 Tied with season two for being the best season of “Gotham” (although 6/10 isn’t super high for being the best), I’m glad the show recovered from season five’s low point and ended on a decent note. Before I get into how the show rebounded, I will get the negatives out of the way … Continue reading Gotham Season 5
