I've always enjoyed escaping the drama, shooting, and so many scary things that happen daily around us, by watching movies. At least, I know that all is supposed to be unreal in movies. Enjoy them for what they are. Fortunately (or not), my job required me to be on computer 24/7 (almost) & therefore, I use my skill of multitasking & always watch something on a side window. Very very picky for comedy. This is a great way to keep track of my shows. My Reviews are mainly based on storylines.

The Affair

Catching up on first season, after all the buzz I hear about the second season, started very slowly but after about 3-4 episodes it started getting interesting.
As they say the plot got thicker and now I want to see where it will take me.
Finished Season 1. I am lost with different versions, not to mention I have no clue of their purpose. But I get why the series is so popular. Issued that this generation is very familiar with. But it is kind of nerve wrecking to watch such adults being so selfish and childish and not have learned the true meaning of marriage.
A good show... can't stand the theme song though.
Into S3 and it is still interesting. And I still hate the theme song.

So far into couple of episodes, it hasn't been disappointing. If it continues it is becoming among my favorite ones. Intriguing story line and characters. Although I feel Stephen Moyer's character is not settling for me... He seems out of place in this character.
I love love love the theme song. I normally skip/fastforward the introduction but not on this one. I let it roll and listen to it all...
Almost end of the season and still one of my favorite shows on top. it really upset me that they decided to cancel the show, however, to be honest I doubt they can spin the next season to be still fresh and interesting without falling for the mistakes most shows fall for (the regular love or revenge story, small ruling area is hard to spin stories)
I am so sad that it concluded and I didn't know until I saw it on my concluded list :( (I was looking forward for next season)

Just watching the pilot was enough for me to decide it is a ridiculously comedy show. I do love a good comedy but "good" is soooooooo rare these days. The use of some very known celebrities’ seems to be the trend to invite to watch the show… but it certainly did not work for me. As I said probably teenage viewers fall for it. But seriously, the show seems to be waste of time… I barely watched the episode through only because I was not watching it alone and I did not want to change the channel on others. Horrible.

I was really looking forward to watch the show. It looked liked my kind of show. But I watched to the end of third episode, and I got bored and tired of waiting for something to happen other than killing and bossing around...

I don't even know why I liked the show. Because I thought it is just your regular police drama show. But the characters grew on me very much. Very intriguing, gentlemen style and very professional (more or less).
After the show was over I missed the characters as if they were part of my life.
It was really a surprising show for me to like.

Murder in the First

In episode 5 of first season. It is your ordinary murder/detective. But it hooks you. It reminds me of "The Killing". I liked that show as well.
S3E6: I have decided to put this series to bed. I am not really hooked. And I feel like I can do better series with my time than watching this show.

Each week, I can't wait for the next episode to start. Although the basic of the story is not a new idea, but how it is being represented is. Love captain chandler and his strenth, integrity and tactics. Only if we could believe that when it comes to end of our world in reality to depend on only one person, it would be someone with his values and standards. One can only hope.

So Iwas almost giving up watching the show bu episode 6-7 (I think), but I am glad I did not. it is becoming one of my favories. Although I thought of many scenarios it might turn out to be, it turned out to be similair and yet different than all those I thought of. The rest remains to be seen.

Season 2: After the first episode of second season? I just lost my interest. Not because the episode was not good enough, but because I realized, it is not that much of a special story lines and I can do better story lines for the time I have.

Season 1: The idea is interesting, but in the end it is just another cop/detective show and not much to it. I will give it one season. (and now at the end of season the characters are very very gradually growing on me, I guess I will watch the second season to know more of the story line that is evolving to decide if I would go for third season or not.)
I forgot, I bet they are counting on "Kirsten", the look alike Taylor Swift to boost the show.

I started watching the show starting season 9.
It is getting boring after watching it one season since the acts are almost in the same lines of dancing, singing, acrobats, magic... and from time to time dangerous and gross things.
I keep watching first because once in a while there is someone who really does something extremely uniqe and second because I love the very positive spirit of the show. It allows some few deserving people deserve their 15 min. of fame for their passion.
I learned to watch the show stating round 2.
Around semi-finals in season 12: I've enjoyed and watched the show because of its variety and therefore entertaining aspect. But, if Tyra Banks comes next season, I won't. I never liked her to begin with and now I even like her less. Please bring back Nick Cannon. He was awesome.
