End of the Year TV Report (2015): Part 3

This last one is gonna be a tough one as I did not do a good job in keeping up with all of my usual American/British shows. In the last few weeks of the 2015 and until now, I’ve been trying to bingewatch on as much as I could, one series at a time. I got through some but not all so I guess my New Years’ resolution is to catch up as there are new series starting up soon!

The ratings, courtesy of Adele lyrics, are as follows:

Must Watch – “Sweetest Devotion” – The sweetest devotion hit me like an explosion
Watch – “Hello” – Hello from the other side…
Just OK – “All I Ask” – All I ask is if this is my last night with you, hold me like I’m more than just a friend
If you’re bored – “Can’t Let Go” – When did it go wrong, I will never know
Pass – “Remedy” – When the world seems so cruel and your heart makes you feel like a fool

End of the Year TV Report (2014): Part 3

Fiiinally…  Apologies for the extreme delays on this last one. I was playing catch-up with a number of the American/British shows has caused a delay with this report.  Yes, I was that far behind.

DISTANCE MAKES THE HEART GROW FONDER?

So that’s what they say… I know, I am waaay overdue for TV Report. I could probably come up with a million excuses but that’s just going to take time away from doing the report. And off we go!

End of the Year TV Report (2013): Part 3

Sorry for my tardiness but finally here’s Part 3, an overview of American and British television for last year.

Late Spring TV Report (2013)

SO MANY TV SHOWS, SO LITTLE TIME

It hasn’t been too long since my last TV rundown but there are so many new shows that it was about time.  Just a note about my American shows: I’m a bit behind on quite a few shows.  I noted them where possible but there are some shows where I’m even a month behind.  It’s been a busy, busy spring.  However, I’m more likely to sacrifice sleep for an addicting show rather than stay up for a mediocre one.

Late Winter TV Report (2013)

THE POPE HAS LEFT THE BUILDING BUT THE SHOW MUST GO ON

We’re living in fascinating times.  There are times when I think the subject matter of the stuff I watch is extremely timely but lately I’ve been feeling that there is more mediocre than good.  Maybe a few bad ones, too.  That is the whole point of these mini reviews.  It gives me a chance to highlight stuff that’s currently on the air.  Anyways, here goes nothing…

First Impressions – The Americans: Pilot & The Clock

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE…

Set against the backdrop of the Cold War in the 80’s, two KGB sleeper agents are sent to the US to pose as American citizens.  Phillip and Elizabeth Jennings (Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell) appear as an average married couple on the outside but they secretly carry on mission for the motherland.  Even their kids Paige (Holly Taylor) and Henry (Keidrich Sellati) are unaware of their parents’ double life.
