Dark Matter
Another new sci-fi series that just started is Dark Matter, and it’s apparently based on a comic series I haven’t read (from Dark Horse comics). Nice to get a new “ship in space” series, and although from the first episode alone I can’t yet say if it’ll be something I’ll really enjoy – the characters in…

Killjoys
Been a while since I’ve found a good sci-fi series to watch, and I continue to sample new things that come out. Latest of which is Killjoys, that just had its premiere, from the creators of Orphan Black. Only 1 episode so far, but I think it shows promise. It’s shot pretty stylishly, and the…

Game of Thrones
I remember the days when fall was when you’d get excited for new TV seasons, and now, for me, it’s always this time of the year, as I get all of my favorite shows in one go: Mad Men, Louie, and Game of Thrones – and this year I got the fantastic Daredevil as well.…

Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louiiiiiiiie… Oh man, not only is Louie back, but this first episode of the new season was so damn Louie, especially the “sex scene.” Good to have you back, Louis.

Kill la Kill
I’ve been hearing this series get mentioned by a few friends who enjoy anime, and so was curious to check it out, even though on the surface it didn’t look like the kind of thing that I’d really be into – the “suit” the heroin wears when using her powers is absolutely cringe-worthy. But since I…

Steven Universe
I had heard mention of this series before, and it sounded like something I’d like, but just never got around to checking it out. I finally got around to it – I’ve watched the first few episodes of season 1 – and now I see what all the fuss is about. This is indeed a…

Mad Men
So here we are, the final batch of episodes of what has been my favorite TV series in recent years (my all-time favorite series is still Twin Peaks). This first episode was quite dark and weird, to a point of nihilism. Looks like Don is still going to go through the ringer for a while…

Daredevil
I’ve only watched the first episode so far, but wow, I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. I had low expectations because I’m not a fan of what Marvel has been producing on TV – I don’t like Agents of SHIELD, and although Agent Carter was more interesting because of the setting,…

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
Holy shit did I ever love this series to death. I pretty much binged the entire season in one night, and when I got to the end, I just wanted more. It begins with that theme song, that I love to bits – certainly one of the best TV theme songs ever. For the rest,…

Better Call Saul
Well this sure is a lot better than I was expecting. Saul was never one of my favorite characters in Breaking Bad, and although I was happy to hear that a spinoff series was going to get made with him, that was basically because I knew that the same creative team would be behind it,…
