Supacell



Im 3 episodes in on this very involving series about African Americans from all walks of life suddenly discovering they have super powers. Each episode adds a few layers to the story once I thought the story was going one way another twist is added. It's great seeing familiar faces from various TV shows and movies in this series.




The Bear Season 3




This Season was definitely more reflective than hectic and frantic.
Making peace with the past and inner turmoil about how you will be received, recognized and future endeavors. A lot of hard truths were on display. A little lackluster too because I know I was dozing off on episodes 7 and 8. Nice nods to other Top Chef movies and TV shows. I'm still interested in watching another season.

Just started Season 1. Can't lie it took a minute to really get into it, but it's slowly coming around

Yeah - it definitely has that anxious, claustrophobic feel to it at times.

Stick with it ... season 2 is really good. There are some standout episodes & better overall character development.

THE ACOLYTE EPISODE 5


Even though one revelation has been predictable for weeks and I still have questions about a character being so familiar,and I truly believe Mae suffers from schizophrenia and the writers of the show suffer from the same, this was the best episode of the series so far.From the intense duels to what some characters spoke of. Still waiting for the main revelation.


Dark Matter finale

I thought it was a good conclusion to this sometimes confusing and trippy series
Still some questions about alternate time lines and variations of Jason but i liked
how things played and the visuals that were provided that helped me make a couple of conclusions about the characters fate.

Crazy finale, it will be interesting to see what happens in season 2

Spoiler

These white people pretty much destroyed the multiverse since there is probably a infinite amount of versions of them now
