I Hate Suzie

I Hate Suzie   well I liked it very much. Any series that shows a woman aging naturally is actually gets my goodwill even before I start watching but this one was really good. 


Tears  yes

Bosch - 6 Seasons


 Photo from imdb.com 

Bosch   ok I was not interested these series because I got over Bosch some time ago (and the novels are all really good) and do not care for any of the leads in the show. I started them just to see what all the fuss was about and loved it. All six seasons are great and the actors are all fantastic. This was an unexpected pleasant surprise.

Virgin River Season I And II

 

Photo from imdb 

Virgin River Season One and Two ended up being just as advertised. I liked the female lead and her matter of fact attitude to the daily occurrences. There is some silliness of course but overall it is good if you are after an uncomplicated, homey watch.

Bridgerton

Bridgerton turned out better than the books, I think I vaguely remember reading one and liking it that much. The series totally worked for me though. The cast, the romance and the rest were all good. Looking forward to the second season.

The Good Place  well I don't think the final season was as good as the rest but still enjoyed it overall.

My Father Is Strange

My Father Is Strange was just what I needed. A wholesome family drama, well acted and the 52 episodes flew by with laughter and tears and generally feeling good.

Mirzapur second season is just as good as the first. Even more entertaining and I really enjoyed it. Also loved Vijay Sharma.

The Wilds Season 1 turned out to be a lot better than I thought it would be. I'm looking forward for the new season.

Cobra Kai S:3 is very good. I enjoyed it although I could have done with less Kreese.

Mad Men

Mad Men  this show... It must have been quite some time since I last saw it and it felt very good in this second viewing. The characters, the plot, the art direction, the music. I love it all.

Love And Anarchy

Love and Anarchy  is a lovely surprise. I enjoyed it so very much and loved the characters, the chemistry between the main leads and the message. I loved it. Actually I did not know any of the actors except one and saw her at a very different role. So probably it was easier to get into the whole thing. And first world problems are interesting. It was a good escape.

The Terror Season 1

The Terror Season 1 is very good. Atmospheric with a great cast and wonderful art direction. It creeped me out very much.

Alice In Borderland

Alice in Borderland was a welcome surprise. I checked it out because of the freaky photo of a tattooed guy with a sword Netflix chose to entice me. It worked. However I loved the series despite hating the tattoo guy (who only showed up later in the story). I did not know about the anime but this show was very emotional, well acted with good art direction. I hope there will be a season two.

Selena: The Series S1

 

Photo from www.imdb.com


Selena: The Series  I first heard about Selena when I watched the film starring Jennifer Lopez and fell for both the character and the actress. This series is not that bad an effort but somehow shows the father as a well intentioned, driven figure - rather than the control freak he is- and the mother his companion and helper - rather than the dependent enabler she is. Well I have found out that the father and the elder sister were both involved in the production so it should not be surprising. Still, so far, I liked the film better.

Derry Girls

Derry Girls  I really liked this sugar coated show. And the fact that I'm unfamiliar with the cast probably helped it. I also loved that they all looked like real people.

The Queen's Gambit

The Queen's Gambit   well I gladly agree with the majority, I loved it. The cast, the costumes, the pacing and the story were all top notch. 

The Americans

The Americans   I expected to like it but I liked it more than I thought I would. I like Keri Russel and she has aged so nicely. Great chemistry with all the cast and a very good ending.

The Crown Season 4

 

Photo from www.imdb.com

The Crown Season Four affected me just as I expected having been a child when Diana and Charles got married (and having actually watched the wedding on a black and white tv with a lot of people at a small Turkish summer tourist town).  I love Diana, God rest her soul in peace, always had and I have cried many times during some of the episodes. Looking forward to Season 5.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer

 

Photo from www.imdb.com 


Buffy The Vampire Slayer   I remember liking this show years ago and when I got the chance to watch it again I started and it immediately consumed me until I finished all 7 seasons. I like it even more now that I'm old. Almost perfect.
