Celebrity Game Face (2020– )

Get a sense of humor

[10/10 · 1 December 2020]

The reviewers conolaining about this show seriously need to get a sense of humor. watching celebs being random and just seem like normal everyday people at a game night is hilarious. Worth a watch if you just wanna have a laugh!!

Criminal Minds: The Replicator (2013) Season 8, Episode 24

Really...!?

[2/10 · 19 July 2020]

We follow what seems to be the most amazing unsub in C.M history all season, only to have a less than lackluster conclusion! It was as if thr wroters changed their minds on the story moments before filming. Nothing, other than having inside info" fit into the original layout for the replicator at all

Charmed (2018–2022)

Its a good show, get over yourselves

[7/10 · 20 September 2019]

If youre hoping for a remake of the oroginal show, dont bother. This is its own show just with the same idea. So much nrgativity is being thrown at this show but its not as bad as people are making out. Its a good show to watch with your kids (not too young ofcourse) has an almost buffy feel to it at times. There are little plot twists that keep it interesting. Is the writing the next Shakespeare? No, but its "everyday" approach to dialogue and interactions is just fine. Its as if the bad reviews here were expecting some ground breaking masterpiece. Id suggest watching it and casting your own opinion!!

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance (2019)

Worth it

[9/10 · 31 August 2019]

Im gonna say, straight out of the gate, the negative reviews so far just come off as ridiculous. some stating its all cgi?? others stating puppets are out dated?? my god, does it get any more ridiculous!?

anyway, this journey into the untold story of Thra is a wonderful mix of both puppetry and cgi! they manage to combine the two type to creat a whimsical, fantasy world that (combined with an intriguing story) has you immersed from start to finish. Both lovable and deplorable characters. Not just the typical "gelfling are good, skeksis are bad" either. podlings play a much bigger roll, fizzgigg make a lot of appearances to make a nice throwback to the movie and one of the most loveable characters. every little element takes you i to their world and leaves you wanting more. sure, there are the odd moment where youe left thing "huh" but they are quickly forgotten.

i saw, judge for yourself and atleast give it a try. to the 1/10 reviews... get your heads outta your asses...!

Alvinnn!!! And the Chipmunks (2015–2024)

Lighthearted Fun with a Moral

[8/10 · 6 June 2019]

Perfect show for my kids. Fun, entertaining, cute. And every episode seems to carry some sort of moral, from bullying to selfishness etc. Everything a kids show should be! As a viewer of the original show and movies, i love that the original voices are back at it, even using the old theme song. For anyone giving this less than a 5... you do realise its a kids show and not just made for your nostagia trip??

Spartacus (2010–2013)

Cringe worthy

[1/10 · 25 January 2019]

By that opening line, I don't mean the gore and guts. I mean the show in general. How this has reached a rating of almost 9 from viewers speaks volumes to the rubbish the everyday public will put up with... I'm not going to go into lengthy detail, I'll keep it short and basic much like the characters and story that can be seen in this show. Slow motion battles, atrocious Aussie accents attempting to sound somewhat British, acting that puts even home and away to shame, Unnecessary sex scenes. The show is clearly trying to replicate 300 but let's face it, for an intelligent viewer even that film was forgettable, barr the "this is sparta" scene. If you want to be drawn into the story and connect with characters both good and bad, I'd suggest you really don't bother.

The Haunting of Hill House (2018)

A great story driven serious but horror IT IS NOT

[7/10 · 22 October 2018]

The acting and character development, great. The intriguing story jumping from past to present, loved it. But let's be honest, any true horror fan will tell you: this IS NOT horror. This is dark scenes and occasional jump scares. And even some of those are rather drawn out or expected to the point they lose all scare factor. This show is being hyped as "terrifying" when the only thing terrifying was realising (SPOILERS) Nelly was her own ghost the whole damn time. I mean, really?! I couldn't help but roll my eyes at that point. Believe me when I say its worth a watch for the sake of the story itself, the families connections and development NOT for the horror aspect!!!

The Sinner (2017–2021)

*Yawn*

[1/10 · 8 November 2017]

Long, drawn out, slow and stale. I have no idea how this show is being rated so highly. The acting is OK but really doesn't seem like they had much to work with. I've seen snail races more captivating than this rubbish. Excuse me for a moment I'm just gonna take a nap and hope its over when I wake up.
