- CreatorCraig MazinStarsJessie BuckleyJared HarrisStellan SkarsgårdIn April 1986, the city of Chernobyl in the Soviet Union suffers one of the worst nuclear disasters in the history of mankind. Consequently, many heroes put their lives on the line in the following days, weeks and months.(9.2/10)
- StarsYui IshikawaErika HarlacherRaissa BuenoIn the aftermath of a great war, Violet Evergarden, a young female ex-soldier, gets a job at a writers' agency and goes on assignments to create letters that can connect people.(8.7/10)
- CreatorBrad IngelsbyStarsKate WinsletJulianne NicholsonJean SmartA detective in a small Pennsylvania town investigates a local murder while trying to keep her life from falling apart.(8.6/10) - This was more than just a murder-mystery, it explores deep into certain characters and i loved that. Sure, the central plot & what followed was clichéd but the expansion of the story was interesting to watch.
I don't love this show so much but i liked it, nonetheless. Episode 5 was intense & shockingly brilliant. It valued certain qualities on real life. And, performances particularly of Kate, Evan (even though he's only present for 4 episodes) & Jean Smart (provided some hilarious content) was really great and so were all performances, imo.
Writing was great, so was the soundtrack. A great show, for a single-watch, if you ask me!! Would recommend.
Recommendation : 8.5/10

Favorite characters :
Mare, Zabel, Helen - CreatorJac SchaefferStarsElizabeth OlsenPaul BettanyKathryn HahnBlends the style of classic sitcoms with the MCU, in which Wanda Maximoff and Vision - two super-powered beings living their ideal suburban lives - begin to suspect that everything is not as it seems.(8.3/10) - If you're wondering the low rate it's 'cause this show's first 2 episodes pissed me off, big time. Made me hate this more than needed. The story was amazing, superb visuals, only fair considering the budget. With excellent cast performances.
This show surely left a mark on MCU's new era, 'cause it's the first MCU show set in the aftermath of Endgame and the story has a continuity in Dr Strange 2022. Kathryn Hahn's performance is a highlight. The writers provided some great contents after the first 3 episodes, the significant improvement was really shocking after the early episodes.
Still, Evan Peters' controversy is pretty much accurate. All that for a boner joke?? Destroyed my favorite character in a minute.

Wanda, Agatha, Vision, Pietro - StarsYûki KajiYui IshikawaMarina InoueAfter his lunch is eaten by a Titan on the first day of junior high, young Eren Jaeger vows to destroy the human food-stealing creatures with the help of his classmates and hilarity ensues.(8.3/10) (Honourable mention)
- CreatorDouglas PetrieMarco RamirezStarsCharlie CoxKrysten RitterMike ColterSet a few months after the events of the second season of Daredevil, and a month after the events of Iron Fist, the vigilantes Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist team up in New York City to fight a common enemy: The Hand.(8/10) - I don't think i'd stand to defend this show if someone says it's mediocre. Tbh, it actually is a mediocre show, the content was degrading & expanded a 3-episode show into a 7-episode one. Also, there are no visuals in this sh*t. Now, i'm really starting to dislike this.
Yet somehow i found this really satisfying! Maybe it's 'cause Matt got be the hero. Reason i liked this is mainly 'cause i got to see the characters from Daredevil. The characters were great. The writing was not very good. Action was alright. Don't think many would find this interesting.

Favorite characters :
Matt, (all Defenders were alright) - StarsJeremy RennerHailee SteinfeldFlorence PughSeries based on the Marvel Comics superhero Hawkeye, centering on the adventures of Young Avenger, Kate Bishop, who took on the role after the original Avenger, Clint Barton.(7.9/10) - Nothing special except the return of Kingpin, tbh. Chemistry between lead was great and a highlight. But then again, this felt more like a "Lady Hawk" show. Overall, a good series that has heart, action & visuals. Worth a watch.
Recommendation : 7.5/10

Clint, Kate, Maya and Jack - StarsHiroshi KamiyaKatsuyuki KonishiKen'ichi SuzumuraHachimitsu Academy, once an all-girls school, has become co-ed, and teen Kiyoshi is one of five boys to enroll. When he is caught peeping, Kiyoshi is sent to the schools prison, where his punishment is carried out.(7.9/10)
- CreatorDoug MoenchStarsOscar IsaacEthan HawkeMay CalamawySteven Grant discovers he's been granted the powers of an Egyptian moon god. But he soon finds out that these newfound powers can be both a blessing and a curse to his troubled life.(7.9/10) - What? That's the ending for a mini-series? Too many plot holes, like, they still haven't addressed which is reality and which is dream and where's the Layla character? Not that I expected too much from this show either, so. Visually 7/10, looks like they went low with the budget, don't blame them. The story was alright. Okay show for a single watch, I guess.

Steven - CreatorJonathan EntwistleChristy HallStarsSophia LillisWyatt OleffSofia BryantSydney is a teenage girl navigating the trials and tribulations of high school while dealing with the complexities of her family, her budding sexuality, and mysterious superpowers just beginning to awaken deep within her.(7.8/10) - This underdeveloped show needed a second season. Because the story was only getting started. And Netflix cancelled it. The acting is alright, familiar superhero concept and i think the short episodic runtime really suits this show.
There's not much to say, tbh. It was good. Worth a leisure watch, i guess. Sophie Lillie is great but can't say i liked her character very much

Stan - CreatorDustin Lance BlackStarsAndrew GarfieldSam WorthingtonDaisy Edgar-JonesA devout detective's faith is tested as he investigates a brutal murder seemingly connected to an esteemed Utah family's spiral into LDS fundamentalism and their distrust in the government.(7.4/10) - I watched this 'cuz the protagonist is my favorite actor. But the whole religious stuff is quite tedious. Every episode has these historic scenes, I don't like those. Acting is quite good, especially, Andrew, Daisy, Sam and Wyatt. I think people who are into these religious sorts will definitely like this series. The likeness towards this can be purely subjective. I found no issue on the technical side. Visuals, acting, music, cinematography all good. It felt like somewhere along the way, the story shifted it's focus entirely from murder-mystery to something else. There was no twists, just people with mad faith and stuff.
- CreatorMalcolm SpellmanStarsAnthony MackieSebastian StanWyatt RussellFollowing the events of 'Avengers: Endgame,' Sam Wilson/Falcon and Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier team up in a global adventure that tests their abilities -- and their patience.(7.3/10) - This show kinda disappointed most of the people such as myself. The content was not well written. The pacing felt so inconsistent, the story was just mediocre but all the action sequences deserves praise and so does the visuals.
By far, the worst MCU show for me, behind Daredevil, Loki, WandaVision, What if & The Defenders. Also my least favorite superhero show. Then again, i can't help but give some immense credit for this beautiful cast particularly Anthony, Wyatt, Sebastian & Daniel Bruhl.

John, Falcon, Winter Soldier - StarsMichael SinterniklaasNeil KaplanAdam SietzAn anthology of animated shorts from around the world celebrating the mythology of Star Wars through unique cultural perspectives.(6.9/10)
- CreatorBridget CarpenterStarsJames FrancoSarah GadonGeorge MacKayJake Epping, a teacher, gets a chance to travel back in time to avert the death of John F. Kennedy. However, history's aversion to alteration and his love for the era and a woman endanger him.(7.8/10) - Started off well ultimately a bit disappointing in terms of how things turned out to be. The Romance theme.They never explored deeper into the sci-fi aspect, it was really unsettling for me to get through that bit. Then, the slowly but well developed plot became super rushed in the final 2 eps. No major twists, i thought they'd do something with the guy who says "you shouldn't be here". Well, whatever. And no closure scene with Al either.
Favorite episodes :
8.6 - The Kill Floor
8.3 - The Rabbit Hole - CreatorDamon LindelofStarsRegina KingYahya Abdul-Mateen IITom MisonSet in an alternate history where masked vigilantes are treated as outlaws, Watchmen embraces the nostalgia of the original groundbreaking graphic novel of the same name, while attempting to break new ground of its own.(8.3/10) - Very well-made in almost all aspects. Story, vfx, sound, characters. Some parts are still left untold like Laurie's past. Overall, I love the story especially the past of Will. Themes of racism and all are made in-depth. Great acting from most of the cast. I started watching this in order to see more of Dr Manhattan outside of the movie but he was only in the last episodes. That was a bit underwhelming though they provided sufficient input to the character.
Favorite Episodes :
9.2 - This Extraordinary being
9.1 - A God Walks into Abar
9.0 - Little Fear of Lightning - CreatorDave FiloniStarsRosario DawsonDavid TennantNatasha Liu BordizzoAfter the fall of the Galactic Empire, former Jedi Ahsoka Tano investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy.(7.9/10) - It's fine, I don't really hold dislike towards it like Boba Fett or Kenobi, still there are a lot of stuff that just is not very good. Soundtracks were real good, no wonder since it's Clone Wars' Kevin Kiner. Some plot holes like how Ahsoka got there is E4? No one looked to search for the Purgills before? Then, Sabine becoming force-sensitive since there was no hint of her being able to use the force. It just came Outta nowhere. Over-stuffed pointless duels. Anyways, liked it for the most part. I really like the live action actors. Sabine's actress and also Ezra's. They're really good. Rosario is good too though i know it's how Ahsoka is, they could have made her more animatic rather than so stiff.
