I liked him not just because he wasn't buying the fakeness but because he literally did not care about series having a ratio of racial depictions. Like say netflix making the cast as racially diverse as humanly possible even if it makes no sense. He instead cared about the strength of characters and plot. Total weirdo right

Watching The Mandalorian one episode a week is maddening so methinks I'll wait until December to binge on all of them.

So Ratched was really really bad. It is all looks, no substance. Or the substance itself is convoluted, uninteresting, force fed etc. Worst show I have seen this year.

At the opening (and a couple of episodes later) it had potential. A gloomy, necromancer (or swamp) greenish atmosphere, some serious plotting skills from Ratched, but soon enough all we had was a pschyco videoclip setup and nothing more.
Serious inconsistency on characters, vanilla ending.
Shame.

The Dark Crystal was fantastically done. The entire show was done with mechanics and puppets, mixed with a little CGI. And... no season 2 despite critical acclaim because it was really expensive to produce.

Primal is such a good animated series. Now they will close season 1 on November with episode 10. I love Tartakovsky's work: Samurai Jack, Dexter's Lab, even Hotel Transylvania. Each and every one. He also announced another original series, a co-production with Cartoon Network: https://deadline.com/2020/10/unicorn-warriors-eternal-hbo-max-cartoon-network-genndy-tartakovsky-1234604548/.
The premise looks dorky, alas he bought me with "a supernatural animated series inspired by myths and lore from across the globe.". I trust this will be something great.

This was a very interesting 4 episode mini-series about the first Trump election, all the stuff about Russian hackers, Hillary Clinton’s e-mails etc are there. Check out the trailer.

D&D live action needs a big budget to be successful imo, unless they go at it from a campy angle. But if they want to be serious with the worldbuilding and props imo it either needs lots of $$$ or it is better not to do it.

I really hope that with the momentum D&D is garnering in recent years, and the quality TV shows are displaying, they will approach this with utmost respect. No "experimental young director with his own unique vision", no "we want to appease to our young audience" and other bs. This should imo be a traditional, to the point of even being full of pathos, fantasy epic

I have been watching the season 4 of The Crown, and I am absolutely hooked. Only two episodes left. Such a remarkably well shot show. The camera lingers long enough in moments where it is required, cinematography is outstanding... Brilliant in all ways.
I have never been interested in the Royal Family, but this season Margaret Thatcher, the quite notorious Prime Minister of Britain, enters the picture so I got curious. And it is fascinating. But oddly enough the tragic relationship of Diana and Charles has been the one I have been even more mesmerized by. Tragic.
I haven't seen first 3 seasons but I don't think it matters, I will definitely watch them after this though

I can easily say, this is one of the weaker seasons, although it’s still top notch. The first season with Churchill was much better than Thatcher, also more in-depth. Needless to say, the closer the show comes to recent history, the political choices of the writers and the historical inaccuracies accordingly, become more significant. For instnance, the Queen and Michael Fagan never had a chat about Thatcher, you can interpret it as poetic license of course, nevertheless, it is quite a bold one.

I must say that I am relieved to hear that, as I do have some problems with the season. However I have never had problems with artistic liberties as long as they don't change the core of the person. I don't have a problem with Elizabeth II talking with Michael about Thatcher, it is rather irrelevant. But for some reason, I dislike it more the closer the event is to our time.
Anyways, after watching so many shows like Star Trek Discovery or Mandalorian for past few months, this reminded me how actual good shows are written lol.

Is that show worth it for somebody who finds the British monarchy really boring? I liked the Tudors but that was a much older period.
