The Rain (2018–2020)

without a doubt one of the biggest waste of time EVER

[1/10 · 27 June 2018]

Bad writing, bad acting and one of the worst laid out plots in the history of Television/ Motion Pictures.....if the damn idiot son would have listened and minded his parents from the beginning then they would not be in such a bad situation. Gives the whole post apocalyptic genre a bad name....do not waste your time with this one. I would rate it negative stars if it were possible

Paranoid (2016)

Most inept Detectives I have ever seen...EVER!

[1/10 · 20 May 2017]

How they would, in reality, let Nina Suresh be a Police Officer (much less a Detective) is totally unbelievable. She is so wrapped up in herself that she poo-poo's obvious leads and only cares about her passing youth. She would be more fit for a Detective spoof than a serious crime drama. More believable characters in that old movie "The Gang that couldn't shoot straight". I understand wanting to bring in the human side of being a detective, but damn, her character is laughable in a serious role. Maybe Inspector Gadget would have been a better choice.

Grimm (2011–2017)

Well....not too bad, BUT...

...I think the writers either got VERY lazy towards the end of season 3 or there was a case of mass insanity among them. I would tend to believe it was more of the former and they got LAZY! The stories became predictable, totally ridiculous stories ranging from super zombie grimm to goth girl grimm, with overly gooey, lubby dubby, couple smooch face, middle of the season stories. They should have canned the writers and brought some in that would delve into the separate character's backgrounds and story lines and histories. Too bad, this series had some possibilities and could have ran longer and the actors would still have work. Hope the writers suffered the same fate, employment-wise...In the future, remember Lazy=Unemployed.

Hotel Beau Séjour (2016– )

an unexpected treat

[8/10 · 5 April 2017]

I really, REALLY, enjoyed this series (even though I had to use subtitles, so I know some feeling was lost in translation). I had heard nothing of it and grew really attached to some of the characters and REALLY hated a couple of others. Such investment and attachment to characters tells me that the actors were doing something right. Kudos to the Actors, writers and everyone who took part in this series. Great job and hope to see more like it!!! I give it an 8 out of 10!

The First War for Western Civilization (2014)

I've seen better acting in Chruch plays

[1/10 · 28 March 2017]

Horrible, just horrifically awful. If the number scale about could have went negative numbers, I would have chose them. Worst acting I have ever seen on anything. Costumes and props made from cardboard and a budget that seemed to consist of loose change found in couch cushions. Seriously, I never knew that Tiki lamps and tea candles, originated in ancient Greece...who knew?!Only thing missing was duct tape.

Z Nation (2014–2018)

Possibly the worst waste of time on this planet

[1/10 · 5 March 2017]

I just wish I could hold ScyFy and the producers of this garbage, liable for, not only wasting precious moments of any viewers that stumble across this, life, but to compensate me for what loss of voltage it drained from my batteries in my remote to change the channel. There is a difference between campy and crappy and this show is the later. I just hope that this is the entertainment equivalent of the elephant's graveyard where actor's and actress's careers go to die. This is not so much a review as it is a public service announcement...:WARNING! Watching this show turns the viewer into the real life equivalent of the Zombies being poorly portrayed in this television series:...I feel like a Cop at the scene of an auto-accident waving people by "nothing to see here, move along". There is not enough cerebral bleach in the universe to wash this from someone's brain once watched.

The Following (2013–2015)

Stupid Cops or just bad (lazy) writers?

[1/10 · 28 April 2015]

So bad it is almost painful to watch. If I could give a numbers rating that were in the negative numbers, I would. From the predictable plot scenarios (bad guy sneaks up behind good guy and whacks them with something, thus allowing bad guy to get away), to the acting performances which may have well been phoned in, this series has gone down the toilet in only three seasons. Surely someone had to see these scripts and said "Hey, these are birdcage liners, let's have a re-write". Here's hoping that the male leads give better performances in their next Xmen roles or else that movie franchise will suffer the same fate. They've lost one former follower tonight.
