Started rewatching the Dexter series. Wanted to watch it again to prep for it's return after 8 years.

Remembered again why I loved the series. So good.

What We Do in the Shadows - Season 3

In the beginning I preferred the movie on which this series was based, but after three seasons, the show has improved to the point where it's at least just as good if not better than the film. 9/10

This goes against how Hollywood produces tv shows. The stars in one season shouldn?t be the same stars in the next season as this story I told over centuries.

It?s about a guy who statistically predicts the fall of an empire and the subsequent rise of the next empire. Of course the guy who predicts it is only alive for like the first 50 yrs of the Foundation trilogy books.

Midnight Mass 8/10 has a stephen King feel to it. Good interweaving of religion into the storyline.

Lol

Good thing I'm not holding myself to that. Game of Thrones was different tho. I was already a few books deep when the show started. So I can see why he wants to do that.

Wheel of Time (Amazon Prime) looks good so far.

I like their special effects. You definitely see magic being used more than in GoT. Story is great so far. The cinematography definitely has a different feel than GoT too.

Wheel Of Time - 8/10 - Watched the 1st 3 & thought they were great. The 3rd being the weakest. I read the 1st of Jordan's books & had to try a couple of times before reading straight through. This series actually flows a bit better. Solid fantasy that I'm liking more than The Witcher.

Hit-Monkey : 8/10. Never thought this show would actually come
Out, and never thought it would actually be good. Fun show, doesn’t mock the source material like MODOK did but also knows the kind of story it is and has a lot of fun with it. Disappointing that all you guys that flip out over every MCU announcement no matter how lame it is don’t seem to even glance at this show.
