Shadow and Bone (2021–2023)
9/10
Engaging and Gorgeous

I usually avoid these Fantasy shows but I was planning to test 4k and HDR and I just couldn't turn it off to go watch my usual crime dramas.

Just my kind of pacing and non-linear storytelling.

Mei Lei is so charming and jovial in it without seeming melodramatic despite her situation, hope her character remains that way.

These baddies are quite endearing too, mostly due to the accent, gaits and postures.

But I'd recommend people choose some moderately brighter picture modes if they're using HDR, otherwise it might look too dark.

Hope the remaining episodes don't drag too much and it gets multiple seasons because the casting and cinematography deserves such rewards.

I also wish the book fans don't start hating on it overwhelmingly because I was expecting the usual vile reviews when I logged in here.

Give it a shot.
