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 things and also the rules that govern their shadow world. I liked those stories a lot. Each week they focus on a different myth such as the woman in white, bloody mary, vampires, etc. Each handled very well and with a surprising amount of knowledge. You can tell that ghost storytelling is a real labor of love for the creators. They also introduce a lot of lesser-known myths such as the wendigo, shrika etc. The team has done their homework and I can not wait to see what creatures appear in later episodes. The references to other supernatural shows like the x-files and Ghostbusters is an extra add on a treat for the fans of these genres. It is like they hit into my mind and put down all my preferred past times on celluloid. Well, the ones that can be looked at by under 18's.I wouldn't say Supernatural has "made scary sexy". I would say its made scary cool again. If only I could be cool again too.

Overall, I think Supernatural is one of the best shows on TV. After season 3 that faded due to lack of content. But still, it's enjoyable.

Recommendation: Recommended.

Sherlock

"Sherlock" is a BBC mini-series which is based on the books of the Scottish writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and released in 2010. I have been a fan of Sherlock Holmes from a very young age and my first reaction upon hearing of a modern TV remake was "oh, they are so going to screw this".I was a bit skeptical. However, I am glad to account that, unlike so many other TV adaptations and especially ones that modernize, I found it humorous, clever and above all, entertaining. I think it is always a bit doubtful and tricky when a 19th-century series or film is modernized and most of the time it doesn't work, especially if it is familiar and liked but I was very very impressed. I was extremely delighted with its considerable pedigree and they included a large number of references and flashbacks for the more avid fan, e.g. the use of scratches around a person's mobile phone charger port to indicate a drunkard rather than a pocket watches winding keyhole. I imagine ...

Band of Brothers

In 2001, Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg were working on a project about the European liberation of the Allied forces. That was based on the book "Band Of Brothers" by Steven Ambrose. The result was a ten-hour long mini tv-series that could dig a bit deeper into several aspects of the liberation. Such as the training, Normandy, Bastogne or Market Garden. The results are awesome. They made the most historical accurate projections ever to hit the TV screen. You can not find any heroes who'll not get hit by an enemy(like in other movies or tv-series), people get killed and often no coverage is done to show the most pathetic and brutal parts of the war. 'Band of Brothers' follows Easy-company from their training in England, through D-Day, the rest of France (including Bastogne), Holland (including Operation Market Garden), Germany and Austria. Those stories have been shown to us in ten different episodes. Every episode starts with the men served in Easy-company tel...

MR.ROBOT

We finally have an intense psychological thriller show that doesn't treat its audience like idiots. The creators actually spent some time doing their homework and the result is a work of art. Fantastic characters, iconic cinematography, all thanks to Sam Esmail's ingenious vision. By far it has the closest technical reality when it comes to hacking.No nonsense giant pacmans eating pixels on the screen or progress bars labeled "VIRUS" either. You can see the actual Unix coding on a computer screen. Staring Rami Malek, Christian Slater, and Portia Doubleday. They are brilliant and the plot is very intelligent. Telling the story of a hard-working, struggling cyber engineer with hard drug addiction. It also depicts a realistic representation of how "our democracy has been hacked." It is also a very real-life story with quotes like, "I should just tell her what she wants to hear," and, "We're all living in each other's paranoia."...
