Partner Track (2022)

Despite bad reviews I enjoyed it

[10/10 · 3 December 2022]

If I based everything off the first episode I would've said not good but as a whole I found myself invested in the story and enjoying it. Dominic Sherwood particularly stood out to me as I fully believed in his role and his chemistry with Arden Cho was tangible. And I'm not just saying that because of the obvious hot factor. Alexandra Turshen and Roby Attal also had a cute chemistry which I enjoyed. I'm no lawyer, so I can't speak on the realism of the professional aspects of the show but I'd say that it's no more realistic than Suits was and we all know how amazing that show was. If you don't, well I'd say you know what your next binge show should be... the point is it was believable enough for me to enjoy even if some of it wasn't correct.

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022)

I want a fourth movie

[7/10 · 24 May 2022]

It wasn't as good as the first 2 movies but I still liked it and would really like a fourth movie. This one is like the order of the phoenix for Harry Potter: nobody's favorite but necessary for the plot. The replacement of Johnny Depp is something to get used to like any time there is an actor change but I didn't think the guy was bad. Just different and an adjustment. I absolutely adore Newt and would be devastated if they didn't continue the story. I need closure.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (1990–1996)

Absolutely Love

[10/10 · 7 May 2022]

Could not stop laughing while watching this. This family gives you so many life lessons to top it off. Every character is loveable and Will's character development is top notch.

The Sacketts (1979)

Classic Western Mini

[7/10 · 7 May 2022]

What's not to love when you have Sam Elliot and Tom Selleck in this old western min-series. Throw in a good classic plot and you have a good movie on hands.

Flipper (1964–1967)

Love this dolphin

[6/10 · 7 May 2022]

As a little girl I loved dolphins and I was a daddy's girl so I was bound to love this show when my pops introduced us to it as a kid. Flipper will never die in my heart and I'm sure he lives in many other's.

Pam & Tommy (2022)

Too Morally Torn to rate

[10/10 · 7 May 2022]

I liked the show and part of me wants to rate it highly because Sebastian Stan and Lily James did a spectacular job in their roles and I think it was a good lesson to people on the trauma and invasion of privacy Tommy Lee and especially Pamela went through. It also showed how awful, exploitive, and plain unhelpful the world was in response to it when they should have been appalled and supportive. BUT despite how good I felt the show was I did not realize until afterwards when I decided to look up how accurate the events were when I learned that Pamela Anderson never gave consent for this to be made. Tommy Lee gave his but he wasn't even asked for it until after it's creation so they probably would have released it consent or no. That's honestly messed up and makes them no better than the people that exploited the couple in the past. For it to be a show about consent they should have had the consent of the two people it's about. Had I known prior, I would have felt obligated not to watch it. That being said, I did feel the show did a good job of empathizing Pamela and Tommy Lee's situation in a way that speaks for many who have found themselves in similar ordeals.
