Magpie Murders (2022– )
5/10
should have been ryland
21 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Bad to have the central snoop so awful --"A STUPID..." --censored word.

Ryland and andreas made quite the insipid couple. One is a mooch, and the other self centered greedy sociopath.

The snoop almost got snuffed was terribly exhilarating. Disappointed she was saved.

Arcane (2021– )
4/10
the animation is beautiful. and ends there
12 December 2021
The animation is beautiful everything else is just geared to teens, the angsty ones.

I'm easily entertained and watch tons of material below my age range. I guess there is a baseline to what i can endure.

An epitome of unlikable emo (damaged) kids.

blake and avon... in 2021 woke
30 August 2021
Could not pass into 10 minutes.

Is it so purposeful to get mediocre actors involved onto a project?

Which is a task, cause solid actors are the backbone of UK entertainment industry. Had to look really hard to get trashy actors.

angsty kids
14 May 2021
Annoying stupid angsty young adults.

The only story worth telling is the flashback.

Kung Fu (2021–2023)
3/10
low bar
11 April 2021
Caradine's series was low bar, and cw not surprisingly managed to make a worse series.

If bruce lee had been casted on his idea, kung fu would had been an unbeatable high bar.

awful actors
19 March 2021
The acting and direction would be laughably bad, if they weren't so mind numbing. the (three) story lines are all emo drivel. good effects though.

Warrior Nun (2020–2022)
too late, too little
3 July 2020
The only interesting character didn't come til the 9th episode. the worst story telling --100% cringe narrative for the first eight, then mostly better for the last two. wish someone would had told me to skip the first 8... cause scene skips was still pretty horrendous.

Doctor Who: Spyfall: Part Two (2020)
Season 12, Episode 2
3/10
memory is cheap is what i always say... my mistake
9 January 2020
What is the point of destruction if you can't even enjoy it? master is way too angry.

so universe (of space) is in need of more space... say it ain't so.

so this other dimension is thin --pun-- on storage space? and has too much content, and looking for new housing to place all their super good stuff, digital that is. may be we can ask them if they have any of the 2nd doctor lost episodes. i guess they already overwritten them as well.

that is top notch banal. and the human hybrid was much better served by Tobias Vaughn (invasion), who also was had a tech empire.

The Aeronauts (2019)
bad math
25 December 2019
So one white male equals one white woman and a black man. what a blundering cretin. aesthetic is making glaisher pretty boy, something glaisher would not protest.

it is criminal to be in the same boat as our current state of journalism --distortion to the fantastic.

Batwoman (2019–2022)
3/10
bat droppings
9 October 2019
How was a daft idea of (alfred) pennyworth had become an very well constructed and executed serial? and batwoman is one confused deposit. it managed to contradict its own social justice message. it is the worse kind of social justice, the kind that is unaware that it had committed cannibalism. the so-called badass enforcer became the useless damsel in distress in a blink. it was a bit camp, now i think about it.... any hoo, social justice that borrows from typical macho meat head trope is a hopeless fail.

Luther's "Alice" wouldn't set the useless girl live, and even less likely set her free. again very camp....

this "gotham" is a silly place, i don't think even adam west would stick around.

i'm really tired of tats on everyone, cause most of the time it makes zero sense. i could be wrong and her tats are symbols of daddy issues. very camp.

mabel is black, let's move on
7 July 2019
Overall a great romp. i don't care the head of police has a black daughter... cause everything is absurd, in a good way. disjointed premise is fine by me, but it breaks the (good) absurdity with "lessons" of racism. funny when mabel gives a beating w/ the very thick bicycle chain. but more of the subject turns a perfectly good farce into a dreadful "vehicle" on racism. i don't want any of that.

What We Do in the Shadows: The Trial (2019)
Season 1, Episode 7
9/10
tilda
10 May 2019
Colin drains everyone, including the viewers. but this episode is gonna be the high water mark that will be hard to beat.

granted other cameos are brilliant. but tilda is it, none of her work had ever made me not impressed, and lol. if only swinton would make one doctor who (movie), it would be worth it --and likely smooth the frontier of female "doctor." she is so fun to watch, which is the point of Doctor Who.

"infinity" contradiction
30 April 2019
Infinity stones cannot help get rations on the table cause it is "finite" after all?

the limited resource theme makes good sense in a closed system. but in an infinite system as it says so on the tin, not so much. genie snap! 1. all of plastics biodegrade safely into the soil, pollution transmuted into fresh air, etc. 2. planets get biggie sized --not all planets, just the inhabited ones. no sweat right?
