There should be at least a long episode where the fate of our characters is shown or a movie even. This was absolutely brilliant and deserved so much better. This had depth, a great arc for each person in it and it's frustrating and annoying all all h.e.l.l. Sort this please!!! Especially as this is basically a true story which in itself is mind blowing. But the acting, choreography and costumes were brilliant and so convincing it was a joy to watch. Seeing our characters change and grow was wonderful and we want to see how they ended up! We deserve it! So please please get on with it. We've waited long enough!

The Rookie

Loved this until Bailey aka Jenna Dewan

I've loved this show from the start but thr last 2 seasons have been filled with eye rolling moments almost all because of DeWans character and her acting. Her skills haveny been terrible but she's not on thr same level as the others in the show...and I include Schmitty in that! Are we really to beleive this tiny animated cardboard cut out version of an actor is proficient in everything we are told she is? I mean I'm all for women's power and not letting anything at all get in our way but her storylines are RIDICULOUS. Sadly the only way to deal with her would be to ruin Nolan (captain tight pants) character and storyline. I'm trying not to give any spoilers but she's ruining it for me. Either they dial her back some what or they'll be losing two more viewers. I know im not the only one who thinks she's just a bad addition. More police work less private drama please! If you don't mind her then it's still a good show and worth your time. And every other character is excellent.
The Brothers Grimsby
(2016)
what a load of rubbish - avoid
3 April 2020
Warning: Spoilers
No wonder the people from grimsby were so offended! The acting was ok but the jokes mainly terrible, aside from half a dozen corkers the rest were predictable and rubbish. The scene where someone throws a dog out of the window is disgusting even if that dog survived. The accents were an awful mix of mancunian and Yorkshire and aside from the one pub I don't believe anything else was shot there. Some of the script was just offensive. The kids parts were great so they're safe and the last 5 minutes were funny ish. How they ever got some of the cast they did I'll never know. Save yourself and the time watching this movie and pull your toenails out. It will be less painful.
Stargate: Atlantis

Oh Stargate Atlantis how I adore you

I'm ashamed to say I'm a stargate virgin! Or at least I was when I first watched this just before the start of the last series. This is the very first show I actually binged watched and now I'm watching it again it has more than stood the test of time. The effects are still brilliant a testament to the skill and methods used originally (bare in mind this is 16 years old at the time of writing this). I've always been a a bit of a sci-fi geek but lost my way during the the SG1 years and I'll be watching that after this. My other half was watching it back in 2006 and I thought I'd tolerate it for one episode. I ended up making him start from the beginning all over again absolutely hooked. If you haven't watched it it's more than worth the shot even so long after finished. Everything the great reviews of SGA is true...the characters, story arc, effects and acting are absolutely amazing.
Man on Fire
(2004)
Read the book and you'll see why this is so so bad and unworthy.
21 February 2020
Having been a huge fan of AJ Quinnell for a couple of decades I was excited to see the movie. Sam Elliott originally played the main character now butchered by Washington.. which for the record I adore. But this is an absolute crap show. The books are suspenseful, tragic, based in Malta and Europe on the whole and nothing about this film gives or does credit to the actual story it's based on. The filming style itself is an epileptics nightmare and the ending should have been much different and everything about it was wrong. An absolute disappointment from minute one to the final scene. If they'd called it anything else and not tried to ride of the fan tails of Quinnells fan base it may have had some merit although the aforementioned terrible shooting style would have still made this hard to watch. One of the beat things about Quinnells books are they're not entirely predictable, in fact they are possibly the best of this genre I've read (start at the very beginning although you'll struggle to find them now as they're out of print) However this movie is formulaic and utter crap. Terribly shot, awful casting acting, adaptation, everything. It's all wrong...if I could give negative stars I would.
9-1-1: Lone Star
(2020– )
Blooming great! Ignore the negative and actually watch it!
18 February 2020
This is one of the few shows I dont wait to watch as soon as it's available! It did take two shows in for it to start to click to be fair but the team just gets stronger and better as it goes. Yes there is diversity in it, in the team and their lives but that just makes it better in my opinion. Very much worth the watch just keep open mind and watch it for what it is... a new show and a new line up to fall in love with.
Star Trek: Picard
(2020–2023)
Utterly superb
7 February 2020
Brilliant to see Star Trek back and outstanding. Star trek lost it way towards the end in my opinion but this give a me much hope for how this will progress and not just revive the show but expand it beyond its origins. Visually beautiful and with a simmering storyline along with some of the most talented actors makes for some serious possibility and hope for the rest of the series. Cannot wait for the next episode and I am already hoping for another season.
Veep
(2012–2019)
Utterly vile and sublimely superb
20 May 2019
Having seen all the original aversion in the UK (The Thick Of it) and adoring it... I didn't think it could be topped in sheer poetry of swear words and toe curling insults. Always close to the bone and often vulgar but in the most intelligent and hysterically funny ways - this is absolutely one to binge and turn it up... you will miss some corkers from the deafening laughter in the room if you dont. Not for the faint of heart or easily offended but utterly wonderful right up to the very last episode. It seemed to cram in quite literally every filthy joke and disgraceful insult they'd ever written and not got the chance to use so as not to waste any. And thank God they did!!! No spoilers but just watch it all it's a breath of fresh air in this oh so vanilla TV landscape.
LA to Vegas
(2018)
Utterly superb and original
2 May 2018
I wasn't sure on the first episode but as the season finale has just aired I cannot wait for season two. ...every single character is perfect, complex but easy to understand and relate to in some way. The casting director deserves a medal for the eclectic and joyous team they put together.The writing and acting are flawless and the highlights of our week. PLEASE RENEW this wonderful escape from reality. Best show on TV at the moment and for a while.
