I thought it was going to be one season like 1883. Now we have to wait until who knows when to see the second season.
Same here. Too much drama, not enough action.

Mayfair Witches - Follows a neurosurgeon who discovers she is the unlikely heir to a family of witches. She must contend with a sinister presence that has haunted her family for generations.

It's not as good as the Interview with the Vampire TV show. I had read that beforehand, but there might be a crossover in a future season so I still watched it. 6/10

Space Force S2 7.5/10

Just as I finish the second season of a show I like, I find out it's already been canned. A shame really, this show has a similar charm to Bobs burgers that I mentioned a few pages back. It isn't overly hilarious, it isn't perfect, it's just kind of innocent and easy to watch. I liked this, I hope it's picked up again in future, especially as they ended with a cliffhanger..

Picard
Season 3 Episode 1-4

9/10

For me it's the best I've seen in this genre for a long time.
The episodes have a story, joke, tension, drama, ....
I don't know if the following episodes can keep this level, but up to this point the makers have done everything right.

I agree. This season is way better than season 2 so far.

Picard S3 EP 1-4

8.5/10.

This score may be relative to the standards we're used to today, this show will never go down in history with the likes of TNG and Babylon 5 as legendary. What it is however (So far) is a very enjoyable watch. I'd basically written this show off after S1 & S2, neither of which were very good. I had no intention of watching S3 until I saw a few surprisingly positive comments appear from critics I trust. And they were right! I've gone from disliking the show, to actually looking forward to the next episode.

The Titan design is very much growing on me, obviously it's nice to see Riker and Picard back doing what they should be. But the supporting cast in general is way better (I can actually remember most of them) Seven is being used much better also in this season and I have to say, I absolutely love Captain Shaw!! You might be cautiously worried about him in episode one and probably rightly so. In any other modern show like this he would have been a one dimensional "villain". But no, the writers have actually put a bit of time and effort into characters on this show. By the end of episode 4, not only will you understand him, you'll probably actively like him. And even when he's being blunt and seemingly unreasonable, he tends to have a point, he just seems to have no time or interest in any nonsense, I found him to be genuinely funny at times. It really is just refreshing to see a show like this and actually connect with the characters.

Picard season 3 has done the impossible, it's given me hope for the Trek franchise again and I can't wait to see the rest of it. Between this and Andor, it has been a good time to be a fan of the genre lately.

As much as I enjoy Picard, I wish they had gone to the format of each episode was truly its own episode. I feel like I, watching an 8 hour movie in pieces.

Last of Us - Season 1 - 8/10

Only because I wanted more infected than what we got and some parts felt a tad rushed. Ironically, the parts where they expanded the story to add back information were excellent (lookin at you, Long Long Time episode).

I don't know why, but decided to watch the first episode of Gotham Knights on CW last night. Call me curious, I guess.

I find it very hard to swallow that someone could kill Bruce Wayne with his Bat-Cowl on. Hard to swallow that his adopted son would step in even though he was not trained by Batman. He didn't even know Bruce Wayne was Batman. Also couldn't believe how quickly he found the Batcave right after Bruce Wayne died.

Either the show runners don't know how to tell a story ...or I'm biased about how easy Batman can be killed.

So far ... 3/10
