The Final Table (2018)

Everything you hate in cooking competition shows all in one place.

[1/10 · 26 November 2018]

Where do I even start with this show. Over dramatic contestants, judges who either know nothing about food or know a lot about food but then are never asked about food, cheesy effects, and probably the worst host of any competition show. At times I thought the host was reading directly from the script for the first time. Overall a shame because they have some great chefs from around the world and they waste their talents by glossing over anything they make and instead focus on cheesy interviews, judges, and the host struggling with being any form of entertaining or interesting.

Daredevil (2015–2018)

First of the Defenders comes out swinging.

[10/10 · 10 April 2015]

This is the Marvel show we have all been waiting for. It takes place in post Avengers New York and criminals are taking advantage of the city. What I like about this show is how naturally it fits in the world already created. The question has come up recently that there are several heroes in the universe that cant hold up their own movie but that people want to see. One of the ways was to include them the bigger hero's movies but it never feels like they are doing the characters justice. Then someone got the idea to do TV shows for them, and while Marvel Agents of Shield is one of the worst shows on television, Daredevil works great and I hope the Jessica Jones and Luke Cage are just as awesome.

Alone Yet Not Alone (2013)

Slightly Racist, Confusing and Overall a Terrible Film.

[2/10 · 29 January 2014]

I watched this film solely for the reason that it was nominated for an academy award and I had never heard of it. What this movie turned out to be was a racist ultra conservative fever dream of this time period only the acting was on par with a middle school play with about one day of preparation. I later learned that the reason that it was nominated was due to corruption in the voting process but I only hope to warn people that started with the same idea that I had, do not watch this movie it's not even laughably bad it's just painful. Also the original song isn't even that good compared to what it beat out, it's just a hymn

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2013–2020)

Biggest letdown ever

[1/10 · 22 October 2013]

I was one of the people that was really looking forward to this show, but after 3 episodes I have to say that it is by far the worst show I have ever seen. The plots are so bad that in the third episode the best covert operations in the world comes up with one plan of sending a monkey into the bad guys lair only to have that plan messed up by the new member of the team somehow getting a fake invite to the party. Skye is the worst character ever, watching her hurts my brain. The only two interesting characters Coulson and the pilot they just ignore. This show is pure garbage. The characters have no chemistry, the acting is terrible, and no where on par with even the worst of the movies. Please get rid of this show before you have to include it in the movies to further continuity.
