In first season it was good, in second season they experimented with a live shoot/broadcast episode with live band and it was a huge success so all episodes of third season were live broadcast

Also check Life in Pieces, its also laughable sitcom

Yep, you heard right. The first season of only six episodes is like a test run. Didn't work out so they changed it up and tried again in season 2, and that worked beautifully, so they followed that for the rest of the seasons. Definitely watch it. Great comedy series.

^Can't wait to watch it.

On another note, watched first season of The Shannara Chronicles. It was okay-ish. I liked the premise, the world and location shots. Some story elements were interesting and I would have loved it if the show focused a bit more on them. The characters were mostly just sorta there for me, didn't really got attached to most of em. The two main chicks were kinda hot/cut-ish though, so there's that and the hero was kinda funny and likable, but they formed a love triangle, so UGHHHH. The druid felt like Abuses will lead to banalf of this series and was underused. Acting was mostly passable. CGI was often good for a series, especially in location shots, but sometimes it turned really bad. Action sucked and the show ended really anti-climatically.

One thing that this show did really well though was the soundtrack. It was surprisingly really good, especially some pieces. Gave the series a more epic feel.

And I thought that this would be it, like the full story and all, kinda like a mini-series. But nope, there is more, they shove it down your throat at the last moment. Now if they ever make a second season, I'll definitely give it a try, and I hope they improve some stuff.

And Then There Were None
​

It is a series based on the famous novel by Agatha Christie of the same name and it is about a group of people from different walks of life who are invited by a rich family to stay in their mansion on an Island. But someone there starts to kill them one by one creating terror, suspicion and alliances among one another.

I loved the premise and it was very well executed. Different and varied characters came to life by great acting, with actors like Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister in Game of thrones) and Toby Stephens (Captain Flint in Black Sails). As the situation gets more dire, you see the true self of these people and I loved how the show focused on the mental state of everyone and how they were coping with this.

The cinematography was gorgeous. The show was really well shot.

Now, my main issue with the show was its three episodes length. It was just too short to fully develop a large character set and while the show did a good enough job with the time it had, it often felt too rushed and even predictable at times. If there were more episodes, many of the characters would have been explored more and more tension would have been created. Also, wasn't a fan of the ending.

All in all, it is a great mini-series, marred by a stupid production choice.

8/10

it had so much potential. I was too short and rushed and needed better character development and less of that young fold love triangle. The druid was the only awesome character for me who, indeed, was severely underused and they should have used his action potential more.

Yep, had a lot of potential, but wasted. I hate it when this happens.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
