I enjoyed ST a lot more than DARK.
I have 3.5 episodes to go and it did get better, but it's also incredibly overrated. There's been some moments. I will never watch it again though.

Dark is complex - tried to get into season 2 after a break, and have forgotten too much from season 1. It’s like three stories in one. But the premiss is super cool, I need to try to get back into it again.
It's finished, and it all made perfect sense and came full circle.rorystorm wrote: ↑20 Mar 2024I really liked Dark, slow burning timey wimey weirdness is right up my alley. Plus it has that great Fever Ray song which was apparently recorded in Reason! But it's not for everyone for sure. Its like asking a guns & roses fan to listen to selected ambient works 2. Neither of them are objectively bad, just incompatible aesthetics.
I really enjoyed 3 body problem, partly because for the simple reason one of the leads is from New Zealand. I dunno, when you're from a small country there's always something quite exciting about seeing an overseas show when someone has the same accent as you. Eg Gunny from the Expanse who is basically like the girls I went to high school with, and the story arc where she goes to Earth and runs off to see the ocean really struck a chord with me. Its hard to explain if you're not from here but whoever wrote it really knew what they're talking about.Theo.M wrote: ↑23 Mar 2024I'm onto the 3 body problem and I guessed it in episode 1 but I still am really enjoying it so far, about a 7/10
Worth a watch if you're into Sci-Fi, and is only 8 episodes so can be gotten through reasonably quickly in spare time. I am kind of glad the days of 23 episode seasons are all but gone.
BTW Shogun is meant to be absolutely amazing, that will be next for me, even though the subject matter doesn't interest me as I am a sci-fi and fantasy nut, I like the actors in it and can't ignore the praise.
Love Anna, she is indeed underrated. I only saw the first season of Fringe, and never followed it up after, I'll keep it in mind.rorystorm wrote: ↑13 Apr 2024I really enjoyed 3 body problem, partly because for the simple reason one of the leads is from New Zealand.

Atm I'm rewatching Fringe. Its a bit grisly for my taste but so clever and extremely well acted. Anna Torv, man she's an under rated actress. She's in a great Australian spy drama called Secret City that i so really liked.
Are you enjoying Silo? I loved it and it kept me guessing till the end what the real outdoor situation was, and let's just say, I got it completely wrong hehe.
Saying one show is > than the other is if both shows were to be cancelled after let's say one season, which one is still fun to watch again, and again. Fallout was fun to watch, but if I learn season 2 is dead I would not care. Not so much for Silo.Theo.M wrote: ↑YesterdayAre you enjoying Silo?

HALO was indeed average, Season 2 was better but after all that I didn't really enjoy it all that much, it just wasn't cogent, was all over the place.
I enjoyed the first 2 episodes but then it all went downhill besides some bright spots in S2.
Anyway, now onto Red Eye with the handsome Richard Armitage. It seems to be a decent whodunnit thriller.
Peripheral being cancelled was a blow for me as I loved it a lot. I am a huge fan of FROM and have been going a bit nuts waiting for season 3 to drop.bxbrkrz wrote: ↑YesterdaySaying one show is > than the other is if both shows were to be cancelled after let's say one season, which one is still fun to watch again, and again.

Peripheral season 2 on Amazon: how to use a strike to cut a project already set for a second season.
Stargate SGU: how you end a cancelled tv show the best you can while respecting the audience's investment.
But if you are aware that you are wasting your time but having lots of fun doing it the tv show "From" is a winner. It's an infinite collection of J.J. Abrams’ “Mystery Boxes” collapsing within each other, and out of each other, crossing multiple plans of nonsensical existence. From the producers of Lost, Jack Bender and Jeff Pinkner
Not really sure how they will move forward from that ending. Although it seems most if all were in a moving vehicle [Airplane_Lost] before ending up in that town [Island_Lost]?Theo.M wrote: ↑YesterdayPeripheral being cancelled was a blow for me as I loved it a lot.

****spoilers for those who haven't seen it follow****
I think it's dark Fae but we will see. Definitely magic involved IMO, they are not dead and there is no government experiment.
