https://youtu.be/qqzgSjZQlLo 5/10 Based off of the Wes Craven film series, MTV decided to turn the “Scream” franchise into a TV show for two seasons before a three year gap and switching to VH1 for the third and final season. Before the fifth movie drops, I figured I’d take a look at the TV series to … Continue reading Scream Season 1
Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness Season 2
https://youtu.be/pT4NYto3abM 7/10 When I think of the beginning of the China Virus global pandemic when the lockdowns started back in March of 2020 and having to kill time stuck at home, a few things come to mind. Long lines at grocery stores, toilet paper shortages, films like “Outbreak” and “Contagion” becoming some of the most … Continue reading Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness Season 2
Mr. Mercedes Season 3
https://youtu.be/r0VydPJoQ88 5.5/10 After the massive drop off in quality from the great debut season to the hugely disappointing sophomore slump, the final season ends up in the middle of the pack. Without giving away any spoilers, with how season two ended I was baffled that there was more story to tell and wasn’t at all … Continue reading Mr. Mercedes Season 3
Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness Season 1
https://youtu.be/P-js-Eww1OI 4/10 Netflix’s first foray into the “Resident Evil” universe begins with this animated series and next year will be followed by a live action series. In honor of the release of “Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City”, I figured I would check out this four-episode series to see how it holds up.

Mr. Mercedes Season 2
https://youtu.be/tqbNhbF6T1M 3.5/10 After giving the first season of “Mr. Mercedes” an 8/10 I remarked that if they would have changed the ending to make it a little more finalized, it would have been a terrific limited series and then just be over. In stretching the story onto a second season, this sophomore slump ends up … Continue reading Mr. Mercedes Season 2
Loki Season 1
https://youtu.be/nW948Va-l10 3.5/10 After having (incorrectly) been informed that “Loki” was the best live action Marvel show succeeding “WandaVision” and “The Falcon & Winter Soldier”, I had high hopes going in. Unfortunately, critics and fans alike were wearing their Marvel fanboy goggles which prevented them all from using the Reality Stone to see that this show … Continue reading Loki Season 1
Mr. Mercedes Season 1
https://youtu.be/bUplZl_QjF4 8/10 Based off of the “Mr. Mercedes” book series by Stephen “I can’t come up with a proper ending” King, this is probably the first TV show I’ve ever watched from the now discontinued AT&T Audience Network. Now available to stream on Peacock, “Mr. Mercedes” checks a lot of the familiar Stephen King boxes … Continue reading Mr. Mercedes Season 1
Children of Dune Season 1
https://youtu.be/n2774yeIFV8 1.5/10 After the Sci-Fi Channel’s disastrous “Dune” in 2000, they inexplicably skipped the second novel in Frank Herbert’s acclaimed series, “Dune Messiah”, and adapted the third novel, “Children of Dune”. Having read none of the novels makes it a little difficult for me because I have no idea if they combined the second and … Continue reading Children of Dune Season 1
Dune Season 1
https://youtu.be/7B1nfv65xQY 3/10 When David Lynch’s “Dune” was released in 1984, Lynch was given the impossible task of turning a nearly 800-page book into a two-hour movie. Due to having to condense so much content, the movie failed both commercially and critically. I watched it for the first time before viewing this and it was very … Continue reading Dune Season 1
The Keepers Season 1
https://youtu.be/Khr7dbuBjuE 6.5/10 If you need another reason to feel depressed and disgusted with the state of the world, look no further than the Netflix original docu-series, “The Keeper”. While there is some good that comes out of this series, “The Keepers” starts off as what you think will be a murder mystery but then evolves … Continue reading The Keepers Season 1
