I love lawyers, I loved Breaking Bad, I loved this show. However, the "present/future" sequences with the black/white are ... kind of boring and I didn't end up caring much for that choice. I would've just loved to watch Saul do his lawyering for six seasons.

Breaking Bad (2008) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

Obviously, excellent show and most people agree. However, I feel as though sometimes the plots are hard to follow, and I feel as though they abandoned Walter's... established book-smarts after the first season. I would've liked more references to how he was originally, his chemical knowledge, his college-learning. (P.S. Skyler White Deserves Better.)

Criminal Minds (2005) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

Very inaccurate to how criminal investigation goes, but that doesn't matter when it's got such interesting plotlines. The b-plots with the characters personal lives are so-so. Almost unwatchable after S12, imo, if you get attached to any of the original cast. Also, hate that they just throw nonsense at Reid.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

Excellent show. It's a procedural cop show, so obviously it has it's tropes and repetition, but I love it. Good background noise, if that's what you're looking for. Bonus points for Rafael Barba.

Young Sheldon (2017) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

A lot better than I thought it would be. Sheldon's character can get annoying, but he's a semi-accurate representation for autistic children (I would know, I was one). The other characters around Sheldon, his family, tend to be more charming and satisfying.

TURN: Washington's Spies (2014) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

Can get really, really slow in some plotlines but the characters are great and make up for that. Rife with historical inaccuracies, but there are plenty of things it gets right. The show looks really good, if anything, with the costuming and sets.

Pride & Prejudice (2005) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

A lot cheesier than the 1995 mini-series, but it's still a good telling of the story.

Pride and Prejudice (1995) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

This mini-series is perfectly book accurate and I love it with all my heart. (BTW: Colin Firth, that's a rating in itself)

Orange Is the New Black (2013) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

Piper is unbearable most of the time, and past S4 the plot sort of falls off, but it's hard not to get attached to a lot of the characters in this show

Suits (2011) - Rated 17 Jan 2024

Some episodes get a little slow, some are confusing, but the relationship between Harvey and Mike is SO good.
