The Last of Us: Long, Long Time (2023)
Nice separate story, that you can skip.
From one side it is a nice separate story in "The Last of Us" universe. From the other if you remove this episode from the show, nothing really changes, so you can just skip it entirely and will not miss anything.
The idea to show us what was behind the scenes of the original was great, but the execution wasn't authentic, but also not bad if you haven't played the game and have nothing to compare it with. Most adaptions suffer because of not following the original as close as they could. Just as does this.
It was their first poor decision through the series to rewrite almost the entire Bill part. And it was mediocre at most. They'd better not changed anything at all if they couldn't make a better script than the original.
The Last of Us (2023)
Controversial adaptation of the original story.
Controversial adaptation of the original story.
It starts very good but the longer the show goes the more negatives you start noticing. While in the original everything happened smoothly and logically, in the TV show too much was taken out of context. So great and fully authentic scenes and dialogues are mixed with poor and empty storytelling, which spoils everything.
Some of the episodes are so empty and feel so unimportant to the main storyline that you can just skip them entirely or the most part of them and won't really feel missing something in the end.
It either feels that the show is trying to follow the primary source very close, but at the same time it doesn't quite catch its soul. If it really did, it would be top notch as the original was.
Friends (1994)
Sweet Comedy.
If you like comedy, you will like "Friends". As simple as that. Some peaple say it's overrated, but you shouldn't say about anything until you watch it by yourself.
Seinfeld (1989)
This one is the best comedy sitcom ever.
This one is the best comedy sitcom ever. If you like to laugh and cry at the very same time than you ought to see it. And maybe even not once, this never gets old. Score 10 is not even nearly enough, because it's genius.
The Gifted (2017)
Too bad.
Such a good idea and such horrible realization. And the further the show goes the worse it becomes. Or you simple realize more and more with every episode how dumb the characters, the dialogues and the whole story is.
Nothing good can be found here. Horrible quality overall and a waste of time.
Young Sheldon (2017)
Good Bad Ugly Funny.
Good pilot caught interest and it seemed to be very promising. Next few series appeared to be very mediocre and did not satisfy expectations. But as the show continues it appeares to be much better.
Sometimes when its ancestor "The Theory of a Big Bang" suffered from a lack of jokes, the story itself made you continue watching it and at some point the show was beginning to be very funny again. You can't say the same about "Young Sheldon", because the story didn't develop at all in the first 10 episodes. Hope it changes in the future. At the same time it's funny, just not as good as "The Theory".
Frequency (2016)
Unexpectably good remake.
First of all, it's a fantasy, so expect a little bit more of a fairy tale here, not a serious science documentary. Not paying attention on little details from scientific point of view, it's very good. But it's not the most important part of the series. What you should really pay attention at is great atmosphere, rich palette of emotions, good actors, a little bit of pressure, not saying about interesting plot.
You can't expect anything better from a remake. If you like the original movie, of course your expectations are high enough from the very start, but the series will reward you for giving it a chance and watching it.
Stan Against Evil (2016)
Don't spend time on it.
A parody on a parody. Nothing great to expect from the very beginning. But maybe? A big no!
Not a good comedy, not a good horror, not a good parody, nothing good. "Stan Against Evil" doesn't have an interesting plot, doesn't have new ideas for this mix of genres and most jokes are dumb. You don't want to spend time on it. If you're eager to watch a nice horror comedy, you should search for something else.
Here we don't have anything, except the main hero, played by a good comedy actor, but with too rare not bad one-liner jokes. One person could have save it all only in a movie like that, not in real life. So there is no hero that can save these series.
True Detective (2014)
Brilliant first season, great second.
The first season is just brilliant. It gives you everything you could desire from a movie like that: an interesting plot, drama, the best acting, deep philosophical thoughts of the main charismatic character and the most atmospheric series you have ever seen. If you want to be fascinated, watch "True Detective: Season 1".
The second season. Let's begin with that it's an another story, so don't hope for a sequel. It is very good too, but not as great as the first one in any aspect. If you like this genre, you won't be disappointed any way, so if you ask, whether you should watch it or no? It's a yes!
