Promised Neverland S1 - 100%


Mind blown! 
Animation style was amazing. 
The children were so distinct and full of character! 
What a dynamic between Emma, Norman, and Ray!
Many moments of "AHHHH WHAT!" and "OUCH" and feelings on my stomach in a knot!
So much passion and feeling. 
Amazing plot and good pace. 
Lots of answered and unanswered questions.
PERFECT setup for season 2!!! I CAN'T WAIT!


 

Last Airbender S1 - 90%


 









Great for a kids show, which is good cause I am watching it with my girls. 

First season was nice and episodic while at the same time building character and an overarching plot

Seems like people love this show... Hopefully the rest is better, though S1 is not bad. 

Surprised at the end with Zhao actually dying. 

Shitt$ Creek S2 - 90%

 

Season 2 Episode 1 may be my favorite. The image above captures it pretty well. 

Season 2 felt a little better into its stride than Season 1. 

Starting to like some aspects of each of the characters more. 

Happy Anniversary was also good. 

Amazing that they have stayed happily married through all this.
And I believe there is a strong message here:
People can stay together, even happily, regardless of circumstance.

I was surprised that a message like that could come from this show. Hopefully that doesn't change in future seasons. 

Shitt$ Creek S1 - 85%




Not really sure why we watch this... 
I liked the ideas Lego set and we had run out of stuff to watch together... 
The setup seems more like a move than a 7+ season series.
Not really into any of the characters.
But somehow almost every episode makes me laugh a little.
