The 100 S7 - 6.5/10 This was the last season and it was okay. It was better than last season but that's not saying much. This show is defenitely for the teenage girls out there.

The Expanse
S1 7/10. A little slow at first, but it becomes a decent watch with plenty to like. Thomas Jane is great as ever.
S2 9/10. More of the same but it turns everything up a notch and is a very entertaining watch. Being more familiar with the cast at this point helps draw you in more also.
S3 8/10 Again, another decent series that's mostly fun to watch. The season suffers a bit from trying to cram in religion. It feels a bit forced and unnecessary to me, I wouldn't mind if it raised a few spiritual questions but it doesn't really. Modern Battlestar had this also, if you don't mind that, or if you can ignore it, there is plenty to enjoy here.
I'm about a third of the way through S4 and it's okay at this point. I'd say overall this is one of the better sci fi series in recent memory. It looks great in 4k also.

Lovecraft Country - Season 1
It began very promising, but I found the writing in later episodes to be average. 7/10

I agree with you about Lovecraft Country. Started off strong and went downhill the last few episodes.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

It went downhill for me after the first 10 mins. I seriously got so bored I stopped watching.

I liked the first episode the most for that very reason--the horror was downplayed in favor of character development and racial confrontations. Some later episodes were real bonkers. So maybe the series would have appealed to you if you watched the rest of it.

Haunting of Bly Manor 5/10
Big letdown on the ending IMO just like Haunting of Hill House.

While it wasn't scary enough for me...I loved the ending.
