Vikings (2013)
IF I HAD A HEART
Michael Hirst became my favorite TV show creator and writer after seeing his previous series, The Tudors (2007-2010). It also became one of my Top 5 favorite series of all time and it's the only series that i've watched straight again after finishing it.
Reason why i like and appreciate Hirst's work is because he take his projects seriously and write every episode only himself. He honor the source material and add some believable fiction in it, without distorting the facts. The story never bore you. There's always something interesting going on. Every character who he write is interesting such as colorful and while perfectly developing them, im sure they reflects respectfully the real person which they are based on.
After finishing Tudors, i looked forward Hirst's next project and couldn't be more happier when i red that he was writing the show based on vikings, which is one of my favorite cultures. After first episode i was badly hooked and after first season, it became one of my favorite shows at the moment. History of different countries and cultures has always interested me and i think it's a great such as endless subject to turn movies, tv show or books.
The show is violent, bloody and also a great human drama. Course of the story progress steady and never slow. There's no unnecessaries fillers, which many series or movies have. Sets, costume design and make-ups are realistic such as mighty excellent work. Also the actors do a great job on their roles.
I have to admit that i haven't heard anything about the main character Ragnar Lothbrok or his life or deeds. But have to say he was very achievable, enthusiastic learner, determinded and also unexpected nature. It's the classic from the simple farmer to the king of his people story, but very interesting and emotional one. There's a lot of twists and backstabbing, but also heartwarming moments.
Season after season show evolves for better and the journey of Ragnar become more dangerous, violent and bloody.

After 14 years from the original movie, David Wain and Michael Showalter still manage to provide a funny and clever comedy and shows, that not every jokes need to make any sense so ever. Even if some jokes are stupid or unnecessary for the situation, they are provided just the right way and that makes them funny and decent.
I like stupid humor and if you do as well, this is the right show for you.

Hell on Wheels (2011)
Almost like Deadwood (2004-2006), which is one of my favorite TV series of all time, but added with some more action.
Characters isn't quite interesting than on Deadwood but they manage pretty well. Anson Mount's Cullen Bohannon is badass, deadly and determinded like Timothy Olyphant's Seth Bullock and he steals the show from everyone else.
Gun fights has realistic feeling and sets on prairie are beautiful, such as rugged and dirty looking.
While ago when AMC made spring cleaning on their shows, this was on the chopping block to cancel, but luckily it survived.

Making a Murderer (2015)
Makes your blood boiling and rethinking our justice system, as the police all over the world.
I hope Steven Avery gets what he deserve and that is freedom. I believe that he didn't do those crimes and the responsibles will bring in front of justice to pay what they have done to the victims.
Honest and uncorrupt justice.

Great and promising new series!
Writing is good, dialogue the best kind and acting isn't bad either. Humor was funny and clever. Got many good laughts. I also got very real life feeling while watching this. Because of all the problems and situations what the characters were facing. I love these kind of shows, movies and games which are closest to real life. They makes me think and gives good tips and exambles at it.
This became one of my must watch series and im anxious to see the second season.

Castle (2009)
PEN AND A GUN
I don't usually like cop shows or movies anymore. I was big fan of those when i was a kid. Lethal Weapons, Die Hards, almost all the known ones you can name of. But nowadays, i have lost my interest towards that genre, mostly because i think that they all resembles remotely or closely eachothers.
Only reason why i started watching Castle, was because of Nathan Fillion. Hes such a great actor and one of mine favorites. Charismatic, talented, funny and energetic.
And along the way of the series, i've starting to enjoy the police genre again.
Castle is not only crime investigations and catching the bad guys. It's also romance between main leads, which is sometimes very frustrating to watch like almost every romantic film, mixed with great humor, intense chace scenes and fast action. I also like Castle's nerdy side very much and references towards movie, shows, comics and games.
Since the first episode, i have been this wide grin on my face and got spurts of laughter when i watch an episode.
The show gets me a good mood every time i watch it and that's why i love it.

YO HO, YO HO! A PIRATE'S LIFE FOR ME
First season was little bit lacky. Premise was good, characters interesting and colorful and sets gloriously beautiful but those wasn't enough to fully convince me on the show. But after second season, they did.
Right from the start i knew that it's going to be interesting journey. New characters appeared, new threats rise and the old ones either sorted out or leaved waiting for the right moment to be take up. The old bonds got broken and the new ones borned.
Toby Stephens character Captain Flint and couple of other characters, got deepent more which was good thing for the character development.
Also the fight scenes on the land and offshore was nicely performed. So as the effects.
The Score, made by one of my favorite composers Bear McCreary, was solid like always.
It's interesting and thrilling to see where the series leads us along the way. Must say what everything was, at the beginning, is going to change and im looking forward to see that. Nothing good, im sure of it.

NEW THREAT, SAME OLD JACK
And so the ride has ended and now he can finaly rest. Thank you for your services Jack! It's been a wild journey.
Finaly get the chance to check this out and it become one of my favorite seasons of Twenty Four.
I'm a huge twenty four fan. It's one of the best series ever made because of its realistic look, situations, drama, characters and awesome action. Every season is thrilling, interesting and always keeping us on the edge of our seats till the end and it still leaves us hanging and wanting more.
I started watching the show beginning of the fourth season and i got hooked immediately. The show has made me laugh and cry. It has given me many chills and countless FUCK YEAH moments. It has also given us one of the greatest villains and heroes ever in television or movies and this season didn't betray us either on those parts.
Michelle Fairley from Game Of Thrones was a great villain. One of the best in the whole series. She was ruthless against people and also her own family. Her agenda was clear and she didn't let anybody steps on her way to ruin it.
Yvonne Strahovski from Chuck and Mass Effect was awesome as well. Her character become one of my favorite supporting characters on the series. She was intelligent agent and always one step behind Jack when she was trying to catch him. In other words she was female version of Jack Bauer but not at first. When the show moved forward she started to change more like him. And let's face it, if you're going to save the day like Jack, you need to break a few rules. And also be a total BAD ASS at the same time, even if it makes you look bad.
It's always sad when your favorite show is coming to the end. It was sad when it ended four years ago and it was sad now too. The end was good. It was sad and i wanted it to be ended otherwise, but it was the right way to close the show. The decisions what Jack made throughout the seasons and the actions that he tooked leaded to this and it was acceptable way to go.
Only have one advise for you: WATCH THIS SHOW!
You won't be disappointed.

YET FAR FROM HAPPY ENDING
First of all, im a fan of the fairy tales. I loved them when i was a kid and i love them still, even when im grown up. Theres no certain age when you need to start or stop watching them, because we need those to fill our imaginations and it's great to have one.
I think im saying this behalf of everyone, that we all have thinked our own imaginary land or place, where we are the hero who saves the day from the bad guys. Thats why i love movies, games, books, cartoons and animations. They are full of those imaginary places and people and they are created by most beautiful ideas, colours and shapes what human being can do. Stories are happy, sad, angry and terrifying or all at the same time.
Once Upon A Time is a perfect series for us who loves fairy tales. I think it's genius what they have created here. All our beloved fairy tale characters living in the same town and interacting between each others. Series is also more aimed at adults, so it isn't happy ending all the time.
Storybrook, the city where this series is taking place are nice and quiet pretty little town. All actors and actresses are great on their roles and almost every characters are interesting. Mostly the main ones. I also want to mention what a great character Jared Gilmore is playing. Usually the kids on movies or TV shows are annoying little brads, whom are always in trouble or making bad decisions, but this one is very strong and wise kid. Hes one of the main reasons why this series holds and stays interesting.
Set decorations in Storybrook and fairy tale land is beautiful. Effects aren't pretty, but it's exactly what you can expect for a TV series. The budgets aren't always huge in those. Costume designings are the best and little bit realistic as well. Not too fairy tale-like.
First season is by far the best one. It was interesting and thrilling to watch when nobody didn't know who they really are and whom they belong to. Everyone believed to be completely someone else and they might be friends of their enemies. It was the point of the curse, which was casted by the evil queen and due to she transfered every fairy tale character to our land by giving them new identity and in time they didn't believed Henry, played by Jared Gilmore, who was trying to tell them the truth about themselves. Not even hes real mother at first, played by Jennifer Morrison, who's the savior in the storie.
It is also good how they keep the audience on the edge of their seat all the time by greating new problems, when the last ones are solved.
In another case, the quality of the series hasn't dropped after first season and it keeps me entertained season after season.
