Rust Valley Restorers (2018– )

Have to agree with most other reviewers

[5/10 · 7 September 2019]

Every episode is we're broke we need money, we need this, we need that. They do some nice restorations but that's never the focus of what it should be. Horribly written drama as well, canned and not natural.

Would have expected more from the same people that did Highway Thru Hell which Mike was in as well as a road/rock avalanche guy working the BC area.

Designated Survivor (2016–2019)

Like many at first was decent and then goes terribly wrong as it goes

[1/10 · 20 October 2018]

At first we thought this was going to be a decent series based on the premise, but alas like all Liberal writers it took a turn fairly soon into the first season. Not believable in most respects storyline wise and the main protangonist is an "evil right wing group.

Boring. The focus on the accomplishments of the "new" President is equally as boring and driven by the writer's politics and not reality. Save your time and watch something entertaining such as "NightFall".

The 100 (2014–2020)

Tired of all the constant beat up looking actors

[5/10 · 30 August 2018]

I get the series, but really? everyone has a scared and dripping blood face? Never heard of water or a towel to clean up? Totally annoying and unrealistic to me. Ruins the rest of the story for me.

Alien Arrival (2016)

Hang in there is gets better??

[1/10 · 14 November 2017]

That reviewer must have been smoking some great stuff if they really believe that.

Does it get better halfway through? Compared to a complete rotten movie at the start yeah it gets better then completely rotten but not that dramatic.

Don't waste your time. Thank God for Netflix streaming since it's relatively free when you look at it. Look elsewhere for a sci-fi movie for your entertainment unless you enjoy torture.

Gypsy (2017)

Have to agree with other reviewers really bland and tedious

[5/10 · 1 July 2017]

Personally I couldn't even make it through one episode myself. The most exciting thing I saw was a Taxi crossing the street.

I understand what they were trying to go for but they tried to combine too many social topics crammed into a story and that wasn't related to a good watching experience.

Surprised Netflix fronted this dude. Can't have all winners I guess. Time to move on for me, I had even a hard time meeting the minimum requirement for this review since I really couldn't find much else to say except, it's your time use it as you see fit.

Personally I will look elsewhere.

The Strange Calls (2012)

Not popular among our regular crowd

[4/10 · 16 August 2016]

Not sure where all the great reviews come from. While I'll give you the show is quirky and different that doesn't necessarily relate to good. For me the comedic timing for the most part was way off and the acting as well.

I'm guessing there was a reason why it didn't last more then the number of episodes that it did. I guess there will always be someone that likes this type of production but it sure wasn't our crowd.

I'm guessing that this was someone's first attempt at writing and or producing as it had the feel and look of an amateurish production throughout the series.

As well I am also not sure why IMDb requires so many lines of text for a review. Sometimes less is more in my opinion.
