I LOVE this show. From the first episode on this has been mine favourite sitcom. I think everybody has a nerd in them. If it's not movies or comics or tv shows then maybe games or something else. I especially liked the earlier seasons when it's just Penny with the 4 nerds. I understand they needed to bring in new people for new storylines but I miss when it's just the 5 of them.
First off I have to say that the show ended way to early. There are so many questions unanswered. It drove me crazy. There are books about the show. So I bought the last one, because that one takes place after season 2. And gave me some answers.
It is about Max (played by the beautifull and young Jessica Alba) who escaped as a kid (with a group of other kids) from a facility who genetically engineered kids in to super soldiers. Now as a young woman she tries to find answers and the other refugees. And she has to maintain a normal life to not stand out and get captured again.
This is a really creepy show. But in a good way. It is awesome how they betray the old characters such as Dracula, Dr. Frankenstein, Dorian Grey. And Eva Green is genius but also terrifying. I am curious how Eva Green is in real life. So do you like horror and dark tv shows. Then this is your show!
Buffy is the first show I really fell in love with. Normally it are the monsters who follow the girl and in this show it is the other way around. Every season has one big storyline. But what I like about it is there are episode's with no connection to the main storyline for that season. Buffy does not only has to slay monsters but als have the strugles with life in general. School, love, friends and many more. It is great how you see Buffy growing up to an awesome kickass woman.
If you are fan of the whole Marvel movie universe, you have to watch this. There is so much stuff in there from the movies.
And sure the show made a false start, but after the movie Captain America Winter Soldier, the show used the whole HYDRA world take over brilliantly. Especially with one of the members of there own team being Hydra.
The 2nd season is about the inhumans. Who will be really important in the future of the Marvel movie universe (Phase 3). And I am in love with Chloe Bennet who plays Skye/Daisy. What a great, fun person.
Michael Emerson is in this show. That should be enough reason to go watch it. But if your not convinced by this. Here are some other reasons.
In the earlier seasons they switch between the past (flashbacks) and the present with a sort of timeline beam. And this is really well done. You have to stay alert to catch everything.
A great cast (besides Michael Emerson). Really good writing. Not a lot of unintresting story lines or even episodes.
Episode 11 (If-Then-Else) of season 4 is in my opinion one of the best episodes for a tv show in the last couple of years.
What a great show! I love how this show has 3 episodes of 90 minutes per season. It is like watching 3 seperate movies but if you look closely they are not seperate at all. And the show is unpredictable. You never know what is going to happen. It keeps entertaining for the whole show. And that is not easy to do for 90 minutes. And the performances of Martin Freeman (Dr. Watson) and Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock Holmes) are outstanding! Go see this show!
How can you be a fan from TV shows and don't watch the Game of Thrones? You simply can't. For me it took me a while to get in the show. Because of the relationships and families. And I am not a reader so it took me a while. But this show is massive in a lot of ways. And beautifull.
The 100 is a good show. I have always been fan of the whole post-apocyliptic shows. What I really like are that there different kinds of "people". You have the grounders (who are primitive but strong and brave), the mountain people (intelligent with modern equipment) and the skypeople (who lived in a big spacestation because the earth was not safe). When they have to live together in the same area everyting shifts.
I began to follow the show halway through the first season after I heard positive things about the show. And rightly so. The first season is awesome. Sleepy hollow does not work with a big cast but they have awesome storylines about mythes and legends. It works!
Only to be lost in the 2nd season. For me it is gotten to incoherint. It is hard for me to keep my attention while watching this second season. There are still some episodes left so maybe they end strong. I surely hope so!
