I couldn't even finish one episode of Nancy Drew. An extremely poor man's Riverdale.

Not watched The Outsider yet but the first half of the book is fantastic and then it collapses.

:slol: r​CoIE Part 4/5

That was pretty crap - almost enough to burn away good will form the first few episodes :(

Entire Marv side trip just handwaved away?

John and New Paragon just punch demons to death?

Paragons mean standing around thinking hard :(

Oliver dying again in 4 episodes...and this one was worst...

All the fights felt crap and cheap compared to earlier ones

Tonally jarring all over the place...

Anyone tried the Bourne spin-off Treadstone on Amazon yet?

It popped up last night on my fire stick and I'm tempted to give it a go out of curiosity but I've not heard any talk about it at all which is always a worrying sign!

I've watched the 1st season, it was ok. It doesn't improve after the 1st episode.

Double bill season finale of Good Place next week. :(

Yeah the first episode wasn't good enough to make me continue given the massive backlog of shows I already have.

I'm still really enjoying Batwoman. I mean it's a CW show so you know what you're getting but it's fine.

Also how do you make your show better? Find a way to give your best actress two parts!

They do that all the time on CW shows:

Legends of Tomorrow - Amaya goes back to 1942 then returns as different character who looks identical. They're just about to do the same with Zar.

The Flash - Caitlyn and Killer Frost.

Arrow - Laurel dies, comes back as Earth 2 evil version.

Vampire Diaries (yes, I watched the first 2/3 seasons :oops: ) Elena has an evil Doppleganger) (dat corset :datass: )

I'm guessing in BW's case Alice is now also somehow Beth simultaneously (haven't seen current episode).

Also, currently watching Titans on Netflix and I'm pleasantly surprised that it isn't gooseberry fool (aside from awful CGI Tiger).

Is there a better ending to a season of television than the last scene of Mad Men season 5?

I'm a few episodes behind but it's surprisingly good. Kaley Cuoco is actually a great Harley Quinn.

Good Place Finale

Nope I wasn't ready :(

But as a finale it harmonised perfectly with the series core messages and beliefs.

I also loved that while it was special it wasn't flashy or over the top despite all the callbacks and cameos. It just was.
