When the first season of The Leftovers began I was instantly hooked. I was fascinated by the characters, as well as, the world that the show establishes. The second season of the show exceeded all my expectations based on the first, which was not an easy feat. Going into this third season I was both…
Part of this review may be a rant (Okay, most of it is a rant) because this is a show that has so much potential to be amazing and it keeps letting me down. The first season was so “great”, the second season was “good”, but this season is more “okay”. Due to some questionable…
Riz Ahmed is an actor I was aware of before this show, but now I will always be on the lookout for him. He is such a natural and compelling actor. Which brings me to this show: it is a really great show. It may have several flaws that ultimately bring the quality of the…
I cannot believe how close I was to not watching the show. I saw the trailer when it was released but it never really hooked me. When it came out and I heard it was so good I still decided not to watch it. I figured I would wait it out and watch sometime in…
Perhaps I have waited a bit too long to review this season, but I still have a lot to say. Some are calling this the best season of Game of Thrones. I would respectfully disagree, but I still think it is a solid season. I may be in the minority but I thought last season…
Right off the bat, the second season of The Flash is not as strong as the first. At times it feels like the show is trying to reproduce some of the same plot points from the first season (with less success), but when the show strives is when it goes off the rails into new…
This review is way overdue (along with The Flash review), but I still have much I want to say in regards to this season of Arrow. Last season was not terrible, but it was not as great as the first two seasons. I had hoped that this season would get back to the heights of…
2015 had many great seasons of television shows. I would even argue this is one of the strongest years of television in recent history. Very few shows fell flat for me. In fact, there were so many great shows that I have a couple of honorable mentions. Before I delve into my list, keep in…
Simply put, this is one of the greatest seasons of Doctor Who I have ever seen (I’ve seen series 1-9). The review would have been up earlier, but I did not want to finalize my review before seeing this years Christmas Special, which was very enjoyable. While the Christmas Special was lighthearted, the actual season…
Last year HBO’s The Leftovers almost made the top of “My Favorite TV Shows of 2014” and this year it may just be number 1. This season was absolutely spectacular. Every episode had some sort of moment that really stood out, and a handful of episodes will go down in history as some of television’s…
