Killing Eve: Hello, Losers (2022)
Just no.
I loved the first two seasons of killing eve. The third was a mess, from the storyline to everything else. Still, I kept watching because Eve and Villanelle are great characters.
This episode was ok. It wasn't great, I didn't even realize it was the last until the ending. Worst ending of a tv show I can remember. Just no.
Somebody Somewhere (2022)
It's an okay show but I won't keep watching
I've watched two episodes and I don't think I'll continue.
I like the two main characters and their issues are relatable. However, the show moves very slowly and the plot is just not that interesting. I also don't see that this story adds much to the storyline of "people from a small town who wish they could leave that small town". It's been done so many times before and I don't feel like this brings anything new. Perhaps if I was from a small religious town in the US, I would have liked this more.
As We See It (2022)
Great show, but there's room for improvement
For starters, we have 3 autistic characters who are trying to become independent. I love that all 3 of them have different personalities when usually on shows with autistic characters autism is portrayed as a personality.
Each character has very different struggles which are also realistic. Violet wants to get a boyfriend for some resemblance of "normality". Jack is dealing with his dad's illness and feeling the pressure of having to stand on his own, with no support system. Harrison struggles to get out of the house because of several hypersensitivities.
In between all of this, their families struggle with a balance between wanting them to change and accepting them as they are. Sad but also quite realistic. They struggle with starting and maintaining relationships. They struggle with getting and keeping a job. These are things most autistics can identify with.
I would have liked the show to focus more on mental health which is pretty much absent for the whole season. Mandy is not a psychologist and I find it hard to believe these characters would have families that support them but no mental health services.
The Hot Zone (2019)
Must watch for anyone interested in health
As a lover of science and epidemiology, I absolutely loved this show. It's based on the true story of how an outbreak of Ebola happened in the US in 1989 after infected macaques were brought to a quarantine facility.
It's an interesting show because it showcases: 1) the lack of preparation to deal with a pandemic/epidemic situation (clearly hasn't changed); 2) the uncertainty surrounding an initial outbreak relating to the actual agent, the measures of protection, the possible treatments... Really interesting to watch after COVID and I honestly can't wait for the forthcoming season.
Midnight Mass (2021)
Good and bad
The first half of this series is so slow that I though about giving up multiple times. Around episode 4 or 5 the series starts getting interesting and I did enjoy the last few episodes. They were clever, well written and very creepy.
Cruel Summer (2021)
Ok but not great
I was excited to watch this after enjoying panic (another young adult show from apple).
The premise was good and the first episodes were intriguing. After that, there's a lot of twists and turns and it becomes repetitive and frustrating. The last episode made little sense. I think this could have been a great show if the script had been polished and the series reduced to 6 episodes.
Panic (2021)
A lot of fun
The show is very unrealistic but, if you get pass that, it's a really fun and intriguing series to watch. I want more.
