Mayans M.C. (2018)
Season 3 is so good!
This season is very well written. Glad they dropped some of those melodramatic soap opera storylines, I always found that to be a problem with SOA. Now they show is more focused with a better direction for the characters.
Party of Five (2020)
An unfortunate true story
Beautifully writing and very touching. It's unfortunate that these events are something that is happening to real families today. One would hope that a good show would inspire empathy and understanding as it's well written and well acted. I guess it's a little hard to look in the mirror when it's held up to your face and you don't like the ugly you see?
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018)
Beautiful reimagining
The casting is perfect. I love the dimension of these characters. This series delves into deeper issues creating complex characters along the way. It's a lot darker than the original Sabrina series so it's probably not suitable for your 9 year old to watch. No talking kitty for comic relief. I found this to be well written and very entertaining. I also think it's very relatable with lots of parallels that young people have issues with today all in all very enjoyable.
The Haunting of Hill House (2018)
Unexpected
I have to say that I did not expect to experience a horror series of this caliber. Without ruining it this was sure a great story, the characters are so well developed and the payoff at the end of this story really had me in tears. I really enjoyed this story.
Who Is America? (2018)
Very funny
One thing is absolutely certain Sacha Baron Cohen has amazing range. I can't imagine the amount of time it takes to create and execute these characters, and to improvise the way he does. He's really very talented. The show is great and it's fair.... as long as you aren't a jackaninny with jerk off beliefs you have nothing to fear.
Vida (2018)
Vida de 4 mujeres
The show greatly focuses on four central female characters with very different backgrounds. Marisol is a native daughter who is deeply rooted in her culture and her neighborhood pride. She is all about her family, and right and wrong is as clear as black and white to her. Emma and Lyn are sisters who both really tired to reimagine their lives after leaving the neighborhood. Emma looks like she got her things together and left without the intention of looking back. She obviously has some real issues with her mother, foreshadowing makes me think it has to do with Emma's own sexuality. As Emma calls her mother a "hypocrite" when she discovers her mother had been married to a woman. This brings us to Eddy the wife, she's totally heart broken about her wife's passing. You can see that she's from the neighborhood and was content to live,work and stay in her community. She doesn't want beyond what she has. Lyn is possibly the most complicated. She doesn't know who she is yet, she's young and selfish and has no capacity to understand how young and selfish she really is. This character is going to have a lot of personal growth once she stops being a crappy self centered asshole.
All in all I'm enjoying the series I think it has a lot of potential. It's tackling topics like gentrification, sexuality, and how the Latino community comes together and falls apart.
