The Good Doctor (2017–2024)

Love it!

[10/10 · 27 July 2018]

I love this show so much. It deals with autism and that's such a good thing. People with autism need to be represented and heard as well and Freddie Highmore does an amazing job portraying Shaun Murphy. The rest of the cast is fantastic as well, very believable and realistic. The characters are complex and deep and the show itself really captivating, intense and so interesting. I highly recommend this one.

Girlboss (2017)

Not very funny but entertaining

[6/10 · 26 July 2018]

So this is supposed to be a comedy but I didn't find it funny at all. It's a great show to watch when you don't have anything else to watch just to pass time. Entertaining enough but not at all a masterpiece. A little silly sometimes, like they tried too hard to make it funny but overall decent.

Famous in Love (2017–2018)

Absolute garbage

[1/10 · 26 July 2018]

I somehow ended up watching the pilote for this show. I knew it was going to be silly, hence why I gave it a try. Just to see how cringy they could make it. And I barely endured it. The cast is disappointedly terrible. They don't fit their roles at all. They feel very uncomfortable and talk like they just memorized the script. The love triangle is basically just putting three people together without any logical reasons. Basically the whole plot is cheesy. I don't recommend.

BTS: Burn the Stage (2018)

Amazing

[10/10 · 26 July 2018]

Well, what can I say? This documentary is absolutely amazing. The members discuss their private lives, anxiety, self consciousness and how fame isn't fixing anything. It felt real and I adore that.

A Quiet Place (2018)

Good and nerve wracking

[7/10 · 26 July 2018]

This is not a movie that's fast paced. The story revolves around a family that lives in a world where whenever you make a noise there's monsters finding you and hunting you down. Therefore they're quit in the entire movie making it a film with barely any dialogue. In that way we don't get to know the characters and you end up not rooting for them, although we do see glimpses of emotions. It was a good movie, with a lot of jump scares but it was a little boring since they ended up walking the entire time without any dialogue.

Anne with an E (2017–2019)

Underdeveloped

[5/10 · 25 July 2018]

Well, the show's first season started off strong. However the second season is a mess. The storylines are not connecting, the characters are so annoying it's hurting and they're all very unlikeable. The cast delivers though, but that's not enough. There's attempts to do something meaningful (ex when they have a character who's bullied) but they ended up not giving him the end he deserved. Also there's a teacher that's a pedophile but it's not dealt with at all and just normalized.

9-1-1 (2018– )

A little bit unrealistic but entertaining

[7/10 · 25 July 2018]

I've been a fan of Ryan Murphy's works for a long time and really anticipated this. 9-1-1 turned out to be a nerve wracking tv show - but a little bit too unrealistic. There were multiple cases where the dispatcher team talked about stuff from their private lives when they needed to save a life? Utterly dumb if I must say. There's also been a character who answered their private phone in the middle of an emergency. It takes away the severity and belittles real firefighters. The characters are very likable and developed and the cases are interesting and has a lot of diversity. The cast delivers as well. Overall a good show - but don't expect it to be accurate.

Station 19 (2018–2024)

Entertaining

[7/10 · 25 July 2018]

I have no problems with this show at all. I've only watched one show about firefighters before though so I'm not really experienced with this kind of show. I found it very entertaining and will be watching season 2. The characters are not extremely likable because we don't get to know them enough, but the cases are exciting enough to keep you on the edge of the seat. It's not a masterpiece but entertaining enough to wanna watch more.

Suicide Squad (2016)

Absolutely boring and not worth seeing

[4/10 · 24 January 2017]

I were kind of exciting to see this. I've heard good reviews but it wasn't good for sure. It basically had no plot line, no structure at all. I can't believe this movie actually is rated 15+ in our country (between pg-13 and R), and I don't think it fits. It has violence but very dull and not exciting violence. We didn't get to know the characters (I know many of us probably knew them from before) but many of us didn't know about them before. Got really disappointed and won't be seeing it again. According to me it's not worth the time and it's like superhero movies for kids, although the audience clearly isn't for children and they failed on that. It's not exciting enough for older people. 12 year old's can see this because there's no graphic or scary violence which I thought.
