Star Trek Discovery
Discovery is a fine sci-fi show. It's just not Star Trek (and neither is the Abrams universe). Call it something else. Seth McFarlain was able to do that. Why not these guys. -
Netflix: Lost in Space
I really enjoyed this reimagining of Lost in Space. I think overall it was very entertaining. There were all sorts of technical flaws and logic gaps in the story, but overall, I could overlook them considering where the original concept came from. I hope there is a season 2. Season 1 was... -
Timeless
Netflix now has the TV show that NBC ripped off to make Timeless. "Ministerio del Tiempo" (Ministry of Time). This is a show from Spain. It's pretty good, though, like "Timeless", I grew tired of the time inconsistencies really fast. The main difference between the original concept for... -

Top Gear UK ( LeBlanc, Harris and Reid)
I like that we now have TWO great car shows. LeBlanc's Top Gear was pretty darned good last season, and the inaugural season of "Grand Tour" with the former hosts of TG was pretty awesome! -

This Is Us
I've been enjoying this show week in and week out. I love how the show eventually ties past and present together to show character motivations. This latest episode fell far short of the high standard set and forced the motivation a little too much, but I still look forward to next week. -
The Man in the High Castle on Amazon Prime
One of the later episodes of season 2 shows a world map and then a closer look at the Americas. I spent quite a bit of time on still-frames checking those out. -
The Walking Dead on AMC
It looks like many feel the same way as I do and stopped watching closely, or at all! 20 to 30% ratings decline depending on what metric you use. Many networks would kill for these ratings, but still the downward trend is a problem for the series and the network... -
The Walking Dead on AMC
This entire fall season could have been told in three episodes, maybe 4 to really drive the point home. I'm all for building suspense. I am all for character development. I am all for getting the audience to really hate a character and wanting him or her dead! But it got so tiresome with... -

Madam Secretary
Hey, if Stevie makes it to Harvard law school, they could have her in a spin off that tells the story of her as first-year student at Harvard Law School, her experiences with Professor Susan Fields (played by Lindsay Wagner), a brilliant, demanding contract law instructor, and her relationship... -
HBO's Westworld
I'm not so sure about that. The question might be who is really in control. -
HBO's Westworld
Well, this week's season finale ended in a bang (or two)! What a great show. BTW I guessed Bernard was a host about half way through the episode, but wasn't sure until the "what door" comment. I really like this show. It took me a while to get used to the timeline jumping around. -

This Is Us
"This is Us" had a pretty good pilot if you are into character-driven drama heavy with dialog and very light on action. I am certain this series will quickly devolve into a soap opera, but I thought the Pilot stood alone pretty well. The story opens with seemingly disjointed stories introducing... -
America's Got Talent Season 11
Hara's act in the live show had me snoring. Had he done something more like he did in the judge's cut he may have been safe. -
HBO - Game of Thrones (No Spoilers)
This week's episode had to be one of the most satisfying of the series for me. What a great build-up and pay-off. A really good set-up for the final set of show-downs in the final season. I think this entire season has been fantastic! -
Person of Interest
Okay so I guess I need to find a weekend to binge-watch this season. I have a really hard time watching a show I know has already been cancelled. :)
