Season 1 is good, season 2 is better, season 3 is worse. Show should have ended in 2 seasons. Season 3 goes on too long, the narrative becomes too messy with unnecessary time periods, and the pacing is poor. Overall, good addition to time travel fiction though.

1899 starts off well enough, but halfway through, already started to suffer from the worse aspects of Dark, i.e. poor pacing and editing. Trying to wrap things up in Dark caused too much jumping around in time, and 1899 did WAY too much jumping though portals in the last few eps. So ridiculous.

The reviews for this show are abysmal, so I knew I had to check it out. They cut the show from 6 episodes to 4 for some reason. Probably because of the low budget and bad script. No respect for the lore, if that matters to you. Not the worst show I have seen this year (Willow) but not as good as Rings of Power.
Yeah I figured...I dont even know what to say about a show like this having so few episodes. Seems a waste.

Jack Ryan S3
8.5/10 Very good so far, smart plotting, good pacing, and leaves just enough wanting more each episode.

Thanks for leading me to this one, did you finish it?
Yeah I finished it. It was great, 9.5/10

Also watched:

Jack Ryan S03 - 7/10, not as good as the previous 2

The Witcher Blood Origin - 5/10.

His Dark Materials S03 - still a couple episodes to go, but pretty good. 8/10 (S01 10/10, S02 9/10).

Netflix The Inside Man 10/10

4 episodes shows how anyone can be a murderer on a really bad day. Stanley Tucci stars. Found it very interesting.

Game of thrones the new one. 9/10. I loved this one. I never really cared for the original, thought it was super boring. This one holds my attention more, well because DRAGONS.

Alice in Borderland S2 - 8/10

Enjoyed the continued adventures of the survivors from the first season, along with some of the new characters, and that the season finished with a satisfactory ending to the story but with an opening for a third season if they chose to do one...
