Kin (2021– )

Strong

[8/10 · 24 February 2024]

This surprised me! I found series 1 to be slow, but 😉 enough. Series 2 though is next level. Excellent characters, good twists and gritty enough to keep me entertained. There aren't any characters I'd like to see gone. All add something. I really hope there is a series 3. The women in particular are fantastic and really hold their own. Could be a series just about them. Doesn't score a 10 due to a few moments I had to suspend belief, particularly the amount of waving a gun around with no consequences!! The writing in series 1 was also a bit hit and miss but this has greatly improved. Seems to have a good budget too.

Love Life: The Person (2020) Season 1, Episode 10

Loved this series but...

[7/10 · 30 August 2021]

I have loved Darby's character development, her friendships, relationships and family. Seeing her become a mum felt fresh and realistic. Just disappointed to see the cry it out method being used to tackle the baby's poor sleep. So overall good but was a bit gutted to see that as it felt unnecessary.

It's a Sin (2021)

Outstanding

[10/10 · 2 February 2021]

I laughed, cried and was educated on a part of history I knew little about. Some bits are hard to watch, gut wrenching and heart breaking. But its also funny, clever and real. Just watch it, you won't regret it.

Unbelievable (2019)

Crime drama perfection.

[10/10 · 28 June 2020]

I'll be honest, I struggle to hold my attention on shows for more than a couple of hours. I get restless. Not with this. The acting, the dialogue, the story, the characters. All compelling. It is sad, moving, shocking & most of all, gripping.

Homeland: Prisoners of War (2020) Season 8, Episode 12

Better than I could have ever imagined

[10/10 · 3 May 2020]

I tried to guess how this would end. I knew how I wanted it to go and at times I was disappointed whilst also on the edge of my seat. But the writers knew what they were doing and blew my mind. Amazing end to a near perfect final season.

Homeland: Two Minutes (2020) Season 8, Episode 6

Strong episode

[9/10 · 24 March 2020]

Enjoyed this. Developed the story, brought the overall story together more and had enough twists. Good writing. I particularly enjoy the portrayal of POTUS.

The Murders at White House Farm (2020)

Stick with it!

[8/10 · 8 February 2020]

Its slow but worth it. Great actors and well produced.

Game of Thrones: The Bells (2019) Season 8, Episode 5

Thoroughly enjoyed

I get what everyone is saying but I loved it. The acting is incredible and the twists and turns kept me guessing.
