The Americans - Season 1

What a great and complex spy drama. I don't know why I waited so long to jump on board. 4.5/5

That will be one of my next shows to watch! From what I've heard it got even better in later seasons.

The Gifted - Season 1

I really like the portrayals of some of the X-Men characters from the books--The Stepford Cuckoos in particular. The creators wrote and cast them perfectly. 3.5/5

BEST show on tv

The Americans - Season 2

Thrilling. And that finale was a shocker. 4.5/5

I've been trying to get into Counterpart, not sure about it yet though it seems to have all the elements that would appeal to me. To met your other self and not like that person or rather that person not like you, must be a mind f***.

A sci-fi espionage drama from creator Justin Marks, the Counterpart TV series delves into an enigmatic reality which everyday living conceals. The story centers on low-level bureaucrat, Howard Silk (Simmons), who toils away in relative obscurity at at a United Nations spy outfit based in Berlin, Germany.

After uncovering evidence that his agency is protecting a secret about traveling to a parallel dimension, Howard’s whole life changes. He soon plunges headlong into a strange world fraught with peril and treachery.

3/5

The Americans is among other few, easily the greatest TV Show of this decade.

Decent. 7/10

Alright, that's it, I'm starting with The Americans.

Really enjoyed this:

Each new season of this has been worse than the last, but it's still decent enough to persist with:

I watched the first few of these when they were on C4 in the UK.

Big Little Lies (2017)

A soap elevated by a superb cast, including the kids, and wonderful writing and direction.

.5

I watched "Patriot" again and I like it more upon each viewing.

The Americans - Season 3

The 'Stingers' episode alone gets a 5/5--some of the best TV I've ever seen. And argh, that season finale cliffhanger! I'll continue with season four after the Oscars. 4.5/5

Okay, I'm all in now, it's gotten quite good and interesting for me. Enough is revealed by about the 4th episode so when you loop back storylines start making a lot more sense. You can't escape who you truly are is the theme it seems.

Enjoyed the 2 season of Red Road. Wish there was more.

Star Wars: Rebels (2014-present)

As it winds down, the animated series does a good job of melding the Skywalker Saga, and the old Extended Universe into the new canon. But as with The Clone Wars series, Dave Filoni's project is winding down in an almost-too-ethereal way that will surely leave some loose ends out there. Overall though, a really good series.
