Alex Rider (2020)
Wow.. did not expected I will get so hooked
I haven't read the books and I think this helps me to enjoy the show much better.. I have nothing to compare it with and I have zero expectations.
It is midnight in UK right now, as I'm writing this review. I'm on episode 4, I really want to go to bathroom, to get something to drink, but am totally glued to the screen. I decided to pause and write this review to express my excitement. Honestly, I don't remember when was the last time a TV show made me feel like that.. Stranger Things season 1 perhaps..
And before you start throwing stones at me, No, I am not comparing Alex Rider to Stranger Things, these are two completely different entities.
All I am saying is that I am hooked.. I am loving it! I genuinely envy people who manage to consume series after series, to binge them. Unlike them I am like that crazy picky eater with tons of allergies. It takes me ages to find something I can digest and enjoy. Tonight I found that and this makes me a very happy person this evening..
STORY
If you read the books, you know 100% more about the story than I do.
If you haven't read the books.. Good! Keep it that way, definitely there are more chances that you will enjoy this. You can always read the books later.
Personally I find the story is captivating and intriguing, the pace is excellent keeps your attention, the action is great.
CHARACTERS
Great casting. Otto Farrant, the one who plays Alex Rider is excellent. His convincing as innocent teenager and as a badass undercover spy! Loving him!
Overall not a single miscast in my opinion. All great performances so far. Well done to all the actors and to whoever done the casting on this.
PRODUCTION One word.. "Great!" (based on first 4 episodes)
Great soundtrack, camera work, action, cinematography. Again.. well done to all involved!
So My SUMMARY to Whoever is reading this!
Please do not get discouraged by low ratings of some people. I encourage you to -**Please give it a try!** It may not be your 'cup of tea' which is fair, but if it is, I just wish that you will enjoy this series as much as I am enjoying it right now!

I Am Not Okay with This: Stan by Me (2020)
Episode 4, Season 1
Why oh why does it always have to be ..?!
.. a f..g superhero story?! Can it just stay unique and local with no dispersing in the wind mystical figures and all that superhero crap.
It was going so well and nicely organically progressing! Truly unique and exciting..
And here we are! This looks like it is shaping into another superhero story #1890 infinity .. like we don't have tons of those already.

Locke & Key (2020)
It is hard to care about the demented characters
The premise is brilliant, the production value and effects are great, this show have an incredible potential and with the right execution it could have been something exceptional..
But the idiotic writers or should we say the writers who treat their audience and characters like a complete imbeciles ruined it all.
As result I am really struggling to relate to any of the main characters demented decisions as those clearly to move the plot. This is so f..g frustrating and disappointing.
Shame on you writers!
