Quantum Leap (2022–2024)
10/10
Fun, Fantasy, Escapism
25 February 2024
I confess to being a Sam Becket fan. Never missed a single night of QL and cried like a baby when my older brother explained Sam never returned him. I was dedicated to not liking the reboot no one could replace Sam. Ben didn't he made it, his own. QL 2022 is good, solid entertainment. I don't watch QL to learn about science, I did that in HS and College. The Hannah character is nice, it adds a bit of warmth,Ben isn't alone. The core support group back at QL 2022 is a diverse, solid group that has his back. It's immensely satisfying with good, solid scripts and character development. S3 leap to it.

Slow but Steady
2 February 2020
Its starts slow, as it introduces all the characters and their place in the shows universe. The twins relationship is solid as they navigate high school, some bullying, and their own awakening powers. The parents appears steady, sure of each other but also mildly dissatisfied with their lot, but slaves to duty and obligation, and of where their relationship is going. The ministers are eventful and while I-am still watching the show, i like it. Im looking forward to the gradual introduction of some of the more receptive towns people to the true nature of the family and what they do. I am also looking forward to a meeting of the freed demon/witch and the family of "Slayers". Its worth the time.

Midnight, Texas (2017–2018)
9/10
Worth the time
18 September 2017
Midnight is one of those shows that start slow with teasers. It's a nod and wink to the supernatural while also inter-splicing realistic possibilities. It's like a joke. A vampire, a witch, an angel, a wear beast and a hired killer walk into a diner. Except it doesn't have a punch line. Instead. It draws you in. Slowing unraveling each characters background until, you are invested In the towns scrappy bunch of characters. It's definitely worth the time. I intend to binge on all the episodes, thus far, this weekend. The marriage of the occult and Normalicy is intriguing and I'm interested to see where it goes.

Stitchers (2015–2017)
7/10
Interesting premises.... But
8 August 2015
this show does what it's suppose to do. It entertains on A geek level with a dash of tongue and cheek, and a sly wink and nod to science fiction. Its Your basic cop show with characters who don't wear uniforms, and drink bad coffee as they complain about the ungrateful public they serve. The blank face of its lead actress does lend credence that her emotions have left the building. Perfect casting. The flirty street wise roommate lends spice rounded out by the prerequisite shady government handler/boss who dances with is she or isn't she one of the good guys, and the two handsome and genius male scientists are both comic foil with dramatic injection when need. It's a good start. I'd like to see what they do with a second season.

This show is not a challenge to Mensa but it doesn't make you regret you spent it with them. I'd like to get to the bottom of the conspiracy, and up the ante on exactly who they stitch. Let's see a assumed terrorist, political hack, unbalanced cult leader and a suspected serial killer with a much larger target in mind. They need to leave their comfort zone. Lie to me, tell me the impossible is possible. Then, show me.
