Gen V (2023)
Last Two Minutes Dropped from 7 or 8 to 1 Star
Homelander may be a racist imbecile in a super suit and could mistake what he saw when he showed up at the last minute but for everyone in that helicopter to sign off on making the absolutely psychotic villains that set loose the Woods prisoners the heroes of the massacre is absolutely ludicrous. Now the two people who want all non-supes dead, even if that meant taking down supes to do it, are the new heroes who will be untouchable. How absolutely idiotic can you make an ending? At least it saves me from wasting any more of my time waiting for and watching the inevitable second season. Way to blow another one, Kripke.
Secret Invasion (2023)
How far Has Marvel Fallen
Endgame was prophetic. It was the end of the MCU. The multiverse has been the biggest bust in sequel history. Now, Marvel has hit it's lowest point ever. The list of inconsistencies in this hot mess are too numerous to list (Most recently, Gravick walking into middle of false flag Russian firefight to use his stretchy arms without getting a scratch, then shot point blank in the face with no damage and then defeats four skrulls again with no injuries while other skrulls die all around him). Marvel got too big for it's britches thinking we would just swallow their crap because of what it used to be. Not doing it anymore.
Doctor Who: The Power of the Doctor (2022)
Who Killed Dr. Who
Why are they slowly killing off Dr. Who with the worst writing of the entire series? The story lines have suffered for the last few seasons with little to no resemblance to the classic Dr. Who themes and stories. The whole plot of this episode relies on one character taking a Cyberman figure into a secure facility and that no one in such secure facility searched her just because she is a prior companion of the Dr.'s. And the Master is nothing more than a psychotic over acting megalomaniac that is not in the least believable as a mastermind. I can't wait to get new writers who may have some respect for the Dr. Who mythology.
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda (2008)
Episode Written by a Criminal
The episode must've been written by a former juvenile delinquent who sympathies with teenage thugs who vandalize people's property and justify it as "kids being kids". It's not a crime to fill your mailbox with concrete. Nobody has to play Mailbox baseball and it is not foreseeable that someone could die from hitting your mailbox. If so, it's just as foreseeable that someone could accidentally run into your mailbox and die. No way you would be convicted for murder for others negligent acts little less their intentional criminal acts.
Castle: Probable Cause (2012)
Egotistical Writers
The whole 3XK storyline is just a bunch of writers thinking they are so smart but, in reality, so stupid to believe someone can be so smart and everyone else so stupid. No one sees him at the jail and no one is smart enough to figure out the video has been turned off. This guy is a master murderer, computer genius, cat burglar and master of disguise. The whole plot line throughout the series was the only weakness until the seventh season shenanigans.
America's Funniest Home Videos (1989)
America's Stupidest People's Videos
If America is stupid enough to vote two bickering Chihuahuas as the funniest video of the year, the show should be called America's Stupidest People's Videos.
Castle: In the Belly of the Beast (2014)
Jump the Shark Writing
Castle jumped the shark in season 6. This episode is an example of the writing that doomed the series. Good show with a couple of twists. However, after Beckett is saved and Vulcan, who tortured her and sent her to die, is picked up, the all of a sudden stupidest cops in the world claim he cannot be convicted on a decorated police officer's testimony with no corroborating evidence. This is not the first set of stupid writers who think they can get away with having a police officer who observed a crime not be a credible enough witness. Hell, criminals are convicted every day on lay witness' testimony, little less a decorated officer. Just like Castle, those shows were heading down the drain.
NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service: Bête Noire (2004)
Series Ruining Stupid Writing
How could this episode be so highly rated. Most impossible escape in any show I have ever seen. How do you know someone will be in a position to have the gall to try to shoot you? How do you switch spots with another body without someone becoming aware? How do you not only get out of autopsy but out of the building and off the base? Never explained because not possible. Had I watched this episode in the original run, I would never had continued watching this series and may never watch again. Pure stupidity.
Live Free or Die Hard (2007)
Who Writes This S***
How does a movie this stupid get written? Traffic jams all over the city but an oversized semi drives around at ease in middle of DC. Mc Clain gets his butt kicked twice by the same bad guy (girl actually) and still just knocks her down and walks away. Tracing cell phones with no service. For people who think they are so smart, they can't write a decent movie to save their a**.
Walker (2021)
Good Idea Ruined by Bad Writing
Show started off OK but by Episode 13, the writing is so bad, it has become unwatchable. Man with knife kills man with gun after gun battle. One man with gun against family with guns gets drop on family. One man without gun almost gets drop on family with guns and Texas Ranger and has to be killed by almost dead man. Absolutely ludicrous. Please cancel already.
The Blacklist (2013)
Cancel It Now
10 for early seasons. 1 for last two seasons. All because of Liz. Please cancel show before its a complete farce. Screws everyone in her pursuit of Reddington and they all forgive and forget and let her walk time and time again.
Hypocrite and sanctimonious. Cancel now.

Cobra Kai (2018)
Ruined the Third Season
Writers blew everything about the third season. Kids commiting felonies left and right with no police or security ever in sight. Shifting alliances with no explanation. Netflix ruined a great throw back series Get new writers.
JAG (1995)
10 until Last Season
Bringing on Vuvkovich was boneheaded. Horrible cocky character with no redeemable value to the show. Writing went to pot writing for this character.
Mile 22 (2018)
Decent Set Up Blown Ending
OK action movie with usually good Walhberg acting like a spoiled child. Russian subplot ends with totally unrealistic assassination scene (no security at special ops headquarters). Don't waste your time. Wish I hadn't.
