- CreatorRoberto Aguirre-SacasaStarsKiernan ShipkaRoss LynchLucy DavisAs her 16th birthday nears, Sabrina Spellman must reconcile her dual nature as a half-witch, half-mortal while fighting the evil forces that threaten her, her family, and the daylight world humans inhabit.Sabrina the Teenage Witch starring Melissa Joan Hart was a very enjoyable show to watch on tv as a kid.
When this new series aired, I had just finished watching Mad Men, where Kiernan Shipka portrayed the daughter of the main lead, so I was curious to see her development as an actress.
So 2 reasons to give this show an honest chance, and I must say Kiernan Shipka's acting is fine, she's a very talented actress.
But this series itself did not meet my expectations unfortunately. I stopped watching after the season 2 premiere. My main reason is that the writers held their characters too tight, giving them no free will of choice, only letting them move from point A to B. Like every character was stuck inside their own bubble, lacking any free decision making or the ability of rational thinking and creative thoughts. It started dragging very soon, as characters were almost as predictable as npc's. At the end of season 1 Sabrina had one moment of choosing the opposite of her initial intention, which gave me some hope for improvement towards season 2, but the premiere of season 2 did not raise my curiousity enough to continue watching. - CreatorDan HarmonJustin RoilandStarsChris ParnellSpencer GrammerSarah ChalkeThe fractured domestic lives of a nihilistic mad scientist and his anxious grandson are further complicated by their inter-dimensional misadventures.First 3 seasons were a blast, mainly the period where Harmon and Roiland constructively worked together as a team. Struggled through seasons 4 and 6. Season 5 was a little light in the darkness. Might not continue watching after dissapointing season 6.
Wish they had secured quality instead of signing the 70 episode quantity deal with Adult Swim.
Comparing Harmon shows, the quality of seasons share a big comparison with Community. Mind-bending revolutionary first 3 seasons, season 5 as a return to form, dissapointing 6th season. Might seem like Harmon would perform to his full potential by wrapping up a series after 5 seasons and than totally shift to a new project. The man is a genius, no doubt. - CreatorMatt GroeningJosh WeinsteinStarsAbbi JacobsonEric AndréNat FaxonPrincess Tiabeanie, 'Bean', is annoyed at her imminent arranged marriage to Prince Merkimer. Then she meets Luci, a demon, and Elfo, an elf, and things get rather exciting, and dangerous.Watched season 1 soon after it premiered, was certainly refreshing but never mindblowing or groundbreaking like The Simpsons (or Futurama). Ofcourse those are unfair comparisons, though understandable.
Since they reached an healthy amount of 5 seasons and 50 episodes and maintainted the initiative to wrap up the series on their own terms, there's a big chance I will watch the show in full at some point in the future. - CreatorJustin SpitzerStarsBen FeldmanLauren AshColton DunnA look at the lives of employees at a big box store.The pilot did not give the impression that Superstore could at some point mix in with my top rated comedy series, but since the ratings improved as the series progressed, I might need to invest a little more in Superstore in the future.
- StarsMakoto FurukawaKaito IshikawaMax MittelmanThe story of Saitama, a hero that does it just for fun & can defeat his enemies with a single punch.Enjoyed season 1. The existential comprehensive bad guy character arcs are a delight when affected by One Punch Man's powers.
Waiting until the series has completely finished before I continue watching. - CreatorDave EricksonRobert KirkmanStarsKim DickensFrank DillaneCliff CurtisA Walking Dead spinoff set in Los Angeles, California. Follows two families who must band together to survive the undead apocalypse.Rated the first 4 episodes of season 1 with 9's and 8's, but somehow I did not feel the urgence to continue watching, or I might have been in the midst of a period where FtWD did not have my priority among the many shows I was following at that moment. Considering the current amount of seasons/episodes and low ratings, there is not a big chance I will prioritize this series at any point in the future.
- CreatorNoah HawleyStarsBilly Bob ThorntonMartin FreemanAllison TolmanVarious chronicles of deception, intrigue, and murder in and around frozen Minnesota. All of these tales mysteriously lead back one way or another to Fargo, North Dakota.Loved the first 3 seasons. New seasons not available on an accessible streaming platform to me yet.
- CreatorCharlie BrookerStarsWunmi MosakuMonica DolanDaniel LapaineFeaturing stand-alone dramas -- sharp, suspenseful, satirical tales that explore techno-paranoia -- "Black Mirror" is a contemporary reworking of "The Twilight Zone" with stories that tap into the collective unease about the modern world.First four seasons were exciting, confronting and revolutionary. Comparing with season 5 reviews I remained with above average enthusiasm. Right now I'm stuck halfway through season 6, not sure when I will feel like continuing.
- CreatorMatt DufferRoss DufferStarsMillie Bobby BrownFinn WolfhardWinona RyderWhen a young boy vanishes, a small town uncovers a mystery involving secret experiments, terrifying supernatural forces and one strange little girl.Watched first 3 seasons and waiting for the series finale before watching season 4 (and 5).
