SECRET LEVEL
Prime Video

I found this anthology series based on video games a bit hit & miss. There are some good episodes like the D&D one but I didn’t like the PacMan story. Each ep has its own cgi style and are all self contained. On the whole it was ok & I would watch a second season.

BAD SISTERS
Season 2

The Garvey sisters are back!

The sequel to the excellent 1st season felt a bit strange to begin with. The 1st couple of episodes felt a little flat, mainly due to the lack of flashbacks and, of course, no The Prick.

SILO
Season 2

I really liked season 1 but this didn’t get off to the best of starts. I found it quite boring to begin with and nearly quit on it.

However as the season went on it did get better & the final few episodes were very good.

SQUID GAME
Season 2

I was a bit apprehensive about this second season. Was it just going to be the same games again? Was it going to be a let down?

No need to worry, this is really great. There are different games, along with a return of the first one.

WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS
Season 6

The final season of the best comedy on TV 😢

It’s incredible how this show has retained its high level of humour and character development over 6 seasons.

The Monster is also a great new character for this final season.

A QUIET PLACE DAY ONE

A prequel to the masterful A Quiet Place that shows what happens when the aliens first land on Earth.

Having somebody who is dieing from cancer as the main character is a genius move.

BAD SISTERS
Season 1

5 Irish sisters are tormented by one of their husbands. He starts the season dead but you don’t know how or who murdered him.

Through a lot of flashbacks we soon learn why they hate him so much and I guarantee you will too! Claes Bang is superb in this role.

MURDER AT HOLLY HOUSE
Denzil Meyrick

This is the first time I’ve read a book by Denzil Meyrick and it’s really good.

Frank Grasby is a police inspector who is moved out to the village of Elderby where he soon finds out there is murder and secrets afoot.

GHOSTBUSTERS FROZEN EMPIRE

The sequel to the great Ghostbusters Afterlife sees the team move to the original base in New York. It’s not long before a new threat raises it’s icy head.

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would.

INDIANA JONES AND THE GREAT CIRCLE

I’d been looking forward to this for quite a while and it didn’t disappoint!

The game begins with the iconic opening sequence from Raiders but then becomes its own story.

DUNE PROPHECY

Prequel tv series of the hit films set 10,000 years in the past.

DOCTOR WHO: JOY TO THE WORLD

A festive return for the brilliant Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor, this time assisted by the superb Nicola Coughlan.

Steven Moffat is also back as the episode’s writer and, typically, it’s very timey-wimey!

BAD TIDINGS

Lee Mack and Chris McCausland star in this Christmas “comedy” about two warring neighbours who get their street into a lot of trouble when they take out the power.

This borrows heavily from the classic Christmas films Deck The Halls and Home Alone but don’t be fooled.

GODZILLA X KONG THE NEW EMPIRE

The latest in the Godzilla and Kong series of films sees them, once again, team up to take down a new enemy.

There is some great character work with Kong and the other apes and they manage to work in a lot of dialogue without any words.

DEXTER ORIGINAL SIN
Episodes watched: 1

After the great Dexter New Blood series I was hoping for more good work here. Unfortunately I was greatly disappointed.

This is what you’d get if you mixed Dexter with the Muppet Babies.

Avoid this if you are a Dexter fan and avoid it if you aren’t.
