The Continental
This miniseries is full of amazing fight scenes that make no sense, weapon damage that is beyond the realm of normality, and slower than the snail that has finally catching up to you.

Reacher
Where I think this show did a disservice to the books and character is not continuing the idea of the loner that he is. In the books, what makes him a what he is just a guy doing the Lord's work because he is in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Agatha All Along
This was an absolutely surprising show. I am not mad at any of the acting and the setting is really good. They do this weird thing where if you really want to pay attention you can tell that it is this technique of a painted background. However, it is painted in a way that it looks far away.

Echo
Alaqua Cox has done an outstanding job on this character and her stunt work was fantastic. The inclusion of the Choctaw people and their heritage was so well done to provide history and depth without being forceful, overbearing, or dragging it out.
TV
The Acolyte
IMDB gave this a 3.5, IGN a 6/10, and Rotten Tomatoes an 80%. Where this show excels is the fighting. There are multiple outstanding fight scenes that are so cool. Where this show fails is the acting and the poorly written characters.
TV
The Terminal List
Chris Pratt and Taylor Kitsch do an outstanding job of playing operators and you can see the work they put into learning the tricks. There is a scene in the last or second to last episode where Chris does a great right to left shoulder transition that just shows tons of practice.

FUBAR
So it is a funny show. Low brow comedy, but fun to watch. If you liked "Mindy" then this is a great show for you. I am thinking back at this show and I remember being relatively bored. There isn't a lot that isn't predicable and just downright sloppy at times.

Jessica Jones
I was attempting to do per episode review of this show and Episode 4 killed me. This show has no damn purpose and I was never able to finish it. I have attempted 3 times since writing this over a year ago and no. Its a 4.
Books
Altered Carbon
Altered Carbon is what you want in a Cyberpunk novel and the world created is so well presented, I wish that CDProjektRed had used this as their template rather than the CyberPunk RPG. The characters make for a well loved world and the story makes sense, with one very notable exception.
TV
How I Met Your Mother
This show ended a decade ago and while some of the pop culture references are a bit dated, the rest of the show has really held up. The cast is outstanding and after years of working together, it really shows the amount of love and faith they had in each other.
TV
The Witcher
Geralt, The White Wolf, tackles monsters, mages, and all other manners of creatures fighting evil… lesser, greater, middling. It's all the same. If I have to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all.
TV
Secret Invasion
Look lets be honest. This show did not do well and for good reason. It was entertaining, but was all filler episodes for the next big movie. They should have left it as a movie like it was originally pitched, because the TV show did not do it.
