23-24 Series Best/Worst

Of course, IMHO...

Best:

Fargo, Season 5 (most anticipated finale)

Worst:

Monarch:Legacy of Monsters (most wanted end)

I liked Loki and Ahsoka. I'm currently watching Echo and I'm liking it so far. I haven't seen all the Marvel stuff but I did watch Daredevil and Echo is the same kind of vibe. Very good for people who don't like the usual Marvel movies/shows.
I haven't watched any show I don't like. I generally avoid things I think I won't like.

I'm really looking forward to 3 Body Problem. I think that's coming soon. Netflix released a trailer for it recently. The books are fucking mental so I'm hoping they can capture some of that for the show.

Echo is a decent one right now.

Not only does it contain great fight scenes, it's also quite educational!

...and, to put closure to my monarch comment, i am quite glad it's over.

What about the Monarch show don't you like? I've heard that it was getting good reviews. I haven't seen any of the Godzilla/Kong stuff apart from the Godzilla movie. But I have heard that it's good.

If you like bad drama and lots of subtitles in a show about sci-fi titans that have about six minutes of screen time spread across 10 episodes, then you will love it biggrin

Subtitles don't bother me but I guess a show marketed around the likes of Godzilla and King Kong should probably have them in it more than that.

Loki was great!

Didnt even know Ecco was on. How did I miss it

Monarch.
When I watched the first episode I was hooked. Titans! (monsters) i love them. Then it hits you, it's a tv show. No big expectations. I've yet to finish it, but im enjoying it. Wish there was more monster screen time though

Echo only has 5 episodes and all of them were released at the same time. I've just finished it. It wasn't what I was expecting it to be. But it was good anyway. Make sure you don't miss the post credit scene in episode 5.

Finished both of these shows.

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters
The show pretty much ended how I figured. I liked it.

Ecco
Also not what I expected, but I enjoyed it too

I read that the post credit scene in the last episode is setting up both the new Daredevil show and the next Spider-Man movie. I'm not too invested in the MCU. Like, I've seen most of the movies and shows and I'd say I liked the majority of what I've seen but at the same time, I wouldn't consider myself to be a huge fan of it. But my favourite thing about the MCU by a mile was the Daredevil show. So it's pretty exciting to see that not only is that show returning but it's also going to lead directly into the next big Spider-Man movie. Hopefully that means more things like Daredevil and less things like Thor Love & Thunder.

I'm really curious about this Monarch show now. I kind of just want to see it because Snake Plissken is in it. I should probably catch up on the movies first though

lol Its good to see him still acting. I had no clue at first, but his son plays in the show too.

I love the Godzilla and Kong movies. The new one doesn't look that interesting. But I still and will go watch it.

I've forced my gf to watch some marvel movies. Shes not too crazy for all of them. But she excited to see Daredevil, as we both are.

You really don't have to catch up on anything to watch this.

There are flashbacks to help you along, which make up for 40% of the Godzilla sightings lol

Also, the subtitles in 'The Brothers Sun' seem to be a quicker read because the storyline is much more intriguing.

Plus, there are more fight scenes!

Add Michelle Yeoh to the series and I'm all in biggrin

Apple TV+ has a very good track record from what I've seen. I just finished season three of the British espionage thriller Slow Horses and the entire series is excellent. For Prince fans, Kristin Scott Thomas is part of the cast playing an MI5 executive.

Yeah I heard that he was Kurt's son. He's not a patch on his old man though.

I recently started watching that new Muppets show from a couple years back that flopped on ABC. It's pretty friggin' amazing. Everyone hyping up those stupid 90s Muppet movies where they just recite old material in the public domain, this is the real masterwork and virtually nobody reps it. Best Muppets since Muppets Tonight.
