Severance: The We We Are (2022)
Season 1, Episode 9
10/10
I just stared at the credits for 2 minutes after it ended
30 April 2024
Oh man. This was incredible. So well written. So well directed too! Gotta give credit to Ben Stiller. There's so much going on at once. I don't want to spoil it, but it answers a few questions about who each character is apart from their "innie." The problem is, it just elicits more questions. Questions I now have to wait months to get answers to! But this show is incredible. If you like black mirror, you'll love it. And I think the craziness and drama overshadow how low key funny the series is, in its own dark and quirky way. I cannot wait until next season, and will just watch a bunch of theory videos on YouTube until then.

PEN15: Yuki (2021)
Season 2, Episode 11
10/10
Wow.
18 February 2024
One of the most moving and powerful tv episodes I've watched in some time, and to think it came from this show was a pleasant surprise. This entire episode has a different feel. The way it's shot, the music, the whole vibe. It tells Yuki's story and what's really cool is I think at the end the videos of a younger Yuki was really this actress. This season has tried some really different and interesting things, and this is an example of that being for the better. And give props to Maya for writing and directing it all. Truly, truly special gem of an episode in a gem of a show. You should check it out.

Untold (2021– )
6/10
An Urban Meyer PR piece; no scandals here!
23 August 2023
This is a bit of a misnomer to put this under an "untold" category. It's all stuff that has been told. What I mean is they didn't go into any of the stuff that actually made this era of Florida football so intriguing. Other than Tebow. But the pouncey twins or aaron hernandez? Not mentioned. That 2009 sugar bowl surprise resignation or the carlos dunlap DUI Right before the SEC title game? Nope. Meyer's secret health issues? Any mention of Zach Smith? Anything that paints Urban in any light other than a maybe a little too tough old school but caring head coach? Nope. This was literally just a heavily doctored PR piece that I'm sure Urban's PR team saw as his chance to get back in public favor and Florida was at least okay with. So if you're a Florida fan who wants to reminisce on that national title run and see a picture painted of sunshine and rainbows, sure, this is fine. But if you're a college football fan who wanted to peer back the curtain and follow the main storyline we were hoping for - how chaotic, outrageous and captivating that Florida team was in the Urban era, with all of the controversies, scandals and surprises, then you're going to naturally end this series feeling more than a little disappointed. I understand if they included all the things we wanted to hear about, the series probably would have ended with "we reached out to urban Meyer and he declined to comment." But the fact that he's in it, and presented as the shining little star along with Tebow, is completely sweeping all of the UF controversies under his tenure under the rug. Which is especially jarring, knowing what we know now about his failure with the Jags. In short, it was a cop out and a missed opportunity.

Same bobs burgers quirkiness with a new set of lovable characters
30 January 2022
I know the IMDb community review isn't great but if you like bobs burgers and are willing to appreciate this show for what it is and not compare too much you'll find it more than worth your time.

An excellent series that gets better as it goes on
7 August 2020
I don't know how this has a 7.7. The first two seasons are solid, the third turns to really good, and then by season 4 every episode is a masterpiece of its own. Stick with the show. You'll be glad you did.
