Arrow

I did not know why I have watched a series called 'Arrow'.Maybe for some change, for some fresh air. Now I do regret this for choosing 'Arrow'.It's the worst one. If you want to spend some quality time, watch something else that I have reviewed below.

The 'Arrow' started off great from season one, onto season two with meaningful flashbacks, great villains, good pacing, fitting dark tone, then it began to slow down with nonsense storyline. One major critic of the show will be how often the writers attempted to put too many love sequences in a superhero show(come on, this is not sex and the city), another will be the story doesn't follow up with the Green Arrow comics. Fans would love to see, If the show sticks to its action first and love story later, it will be more consistent and this will keep the show alive for a longer number of seasons. The best part of this show is that it provides its viewers with crossover episodes and team-ups with other superheroes such as the Flash. These crossover episodes provide more action and deliver a comic book genre type of team up for fans to enjoy. The show lost its spark after season three. Now it has only horrible meaningless flashbacks, worse acting, terrible villains, unfitting lighter tone, illogical storylines with many plot holes. It's more like a soap opera than a superhero/crime drama TV show.Felicity(sleeps with all the Billionaires and take their fortune and keeps them under her payroll) and Diggle are annoying now. It feels like Greg Berlanti lost his focus from the show. The main character reveals himself all the time. He wears a costume to hide his identity, yet everyone and their brother now know his secret. So what is the point of wearing a costume to hide! Oliver always seems to feel the need to have sex with every woman he encounters. The dead always come back in the series. Every villain they come across somehow related to the island Oliver was stranded in for five years. They consistently maintained those stupidities.I think they are out of ideas.

Season 1 - Awesome.

Season 2 - OK.

Season 3 - What is happening.

Season 4 - Killed the show.

Season 5 - Stopped watching, gave up, can't watch anymore.

Recommendation: Not Recommended.

Death Note

This is anime, at its best. I'm relatively new to the world of anime, but I have to say from what I've seen so far that Death Note goes above and beyond from your action based anime. Whereas a lot of anime relies on action-packed battles and fights, Death Note is a refreshing change of pace. The story is slick, witty and smart enough that makes you always guessing. It depicts a cat-and-mouse game that keeps taking turns going for and against the two lead foes. What I like the most is that this is very complex material but it's nicely presented so each new development in the case comes as an exciting shock. I would definitely recommend it. Recommendation : Highly recommended.

Supernatural

When I first saw the trailer of the show, I thought the usual horror show that used to be so boring. But after watching the first season it blew me away. It's a mini horror movie every week with a unique story. It brings American urban legends into your home each episode. From the exceptional writing to the awesome soundtrack, this TV show is a step above the rest. I love seeing the dynamic between the brothers, Sam and Dean. It's like whatever happened in the past, the family is always family. Special effects were so great, it's like watching Avengers And that car. The brothers travel across America with the classic '67 Impala, With the classic rock music blaring on the cassette player and the roar of the engine, My god someone has a taste. this car is soo cool! The story is all about paranormal phenomena and mythological creatures, but the storytelling technique pulls you in and holds your attention, making you want to know a lot more about those supernatural th...

Fargo

Season one and two are just awesome. Season three has soo many 'humor-ish' moments in it. Personally, I think that the first two seasons were well balanced. And the third season is a balance between serious thriller-ish elements and exaggerated elements which made it not too much towards the best, which is a shame. Season one of the first episode itself left me with anxious tingles down my spine. Martin Freeman as Bilbao Baggins, whatever he does impresses me. His performance is just perfect, and his body language, reactions, and the accent. It is just amazing that an English can do such a unique northern American accent. Hats of to him. Billy Bob Thornton did an excellent job showing a baddie with such a power of manipulation. As usual, his performance is mind-blowing, every scene of him is jaw-dropping with some chills. And the others were also excellent. And the story is very well written. Thanks to Noah Hawley and the writing team to successfully crafted crime stories...
