Manifest
(2018)

The biggest joke on television!
Netflix trying to salvage the show for one season where NBC could not give any answers in 3 seasons. Enough of these nonsense show by overly imaginative writers. The worst acting I have seen on television. Toss up between Melissa Roxburgh and Luna Blaise with the most frowning or scowling in the series. How many scenes did J. R. Ramírez failed to show lines on his forehead when acting? Parveen Kaur looked deranged in the whole series. The guy who portrayed the NSA agent has not changed his facial expression the whole series. The Stone family were so good the Avengers would be no match to them. The matrix that Ben created is the best ever I dunno if anyone can follow it! The series which never failed to make me laugh every episode is bidding goodbye soon permanently. RIP!

Echoes
(2022)

Dizzy spell after watching
The worst and weirdest tv series I have ever watched. Did not find anything good on this show from the acting, story, directing and the annoying sound track. The weirdest story which made me laugh most of the time as scenes do not make sense at all. The only difference between the twin sisters - the hair style! Even the acting by Michelle Monaghan in both Leni and Gina was so bad and boring. It's no longer entertaining but rather frustrating as a viewer. I guess my biggest question is why would twins decide to swap lives unless both are lunatic! A total waste of your time if you decide to watch.

The Endgame
(2022)

A big laughing stock
Into five episodes and can't help myself laughing. No wonder this series has been cancelled after one season. What made me laugh watching this?

1. The Morticia-like entrance of Morena Baccarin 2. The poor, pathetic accent of Morena Baccarin which she cannot do consistently throughout.

3. This is the show with the most incompetent FBI agents you will find in any TV show.

4. The female top agent completely made up from the hair, make up, wardrobe while finding ways how to solve the taking over of seven banks.

5. An international terrorist held in a hotel-like service FBI black site. Laughing while Morena Baccarin having tea from a shiny polished tea set.

6. Feel like watching Blacklist in the city of Gotham!

7. And what a choice of name for the female lead - Elena Federova. Must be taken from one beauty pageant?

Don't waste your time on this.

Pieces of Her
(2022)

A sleeper
I was already yawning from the 2nd episode onwards with a badly written script. There are scenes where you can't help but laugh as how ridiculously unbelievable it was. Who leaves the trunk of a car open with a suitcase full of money in it? I am a big fan of Toni Collette but this series makes her acting look bad. The most boring is the acting of Bella Heathcote and a bad script makes it even worse. She docked so scared in the first scene when a gunman started shooting and yet the rest of the series sees her confronting almost everyone. This series took eight episodes when it could only be made in four. The final episode took one hour, seriously? No wonder this series did not make any noise even withToni Collette in it.

Inventing Anna
(2022)

Good story but...
Good story but the writing and acting are jut horrendous! Julia Garner is a favorite but she is awful in here with the "forced", trying hard accent. I couldn't stand Anna Chlumsky's facial expressions. Whoever chose Anna's wardrobe should be hanged. Why put a pregnant woman in black most of the time?

Bates Motel
(2013)

An insult to the makers of Psycho!
I got curious to get back and watch this series and not sure what made me finish 5 seasons of trash. This is an insult to the makers of Psycho! Vera Farmiga and Freddie Highmore are good actors but...I find Vera's acting over the top, trying too much which makes it ridiculous. Casting Freddie Highmore as the young Norman Bates? A pretty face? Not a single time did I feel frightened in any of the scenes but more of irritation. The irony is casting Nestor Carbonell as the sheriff who looks more like Anthony Perkins! Seasons 4 and 5 are the worst, seems like the writers don't know how to end the series.

Cleaning Up
(2019)

Pieces of stupidity
The only good thing on this series in Sheridan Smith. The story is horribly ludicrous! Thanks to the writer for creating the most despicable character (Sam) I have ever watched on television. The biggest failure is justifying Sam's need for money for her family and yet her need for money is due to her gambling addiction. She doesn't even know how to use Microsoft excel and yet goes all through her scheming ways. The most insulting is the writer treating their viewers to be stupid!

Spooks
(2002)

Half of the episodes too good to be true but
The first three seasons were great but from the 4th season onwards, most of the episodes were just too good to be true. Sometimes I can't help but laugh at how unbelievable the stories came about. Season 8 Episode 3 is the most ridiculous and unbelievable tv episode I have watched. Peter Firth and Nicola Walker are favorites and only reason I continue watching. That actress portraying Ros is the most overacting or I must say no acting at all among the cast. Whatever the scene, she has the same annoying facial expression.

The Voyeurs
(2021)

Sick, weird, absurd
The story and much worse the acting! Pippa is a sick in the mind woman that I could not finish the movie. She's like a porn star physically and the the way she acts in front of the camera. Oh yes, this is a soft porn type of film.

The Punisher
(2017)

Not surprised it ended in just 2 Seasons
Season 1 showed promise but Season 2 was just a mess. Too many sub plots in Season 2 that the story looks like merry go round. Such a pity that a talent like Jon Bernthal was wasted with such bad storyline. Bad acting made it worse lead by Agent Madani and the psychiatrist who both Russo bedded.

Hanna
(2019)

Getting Worse After Season 1
After Season 1 with Joel Kinneman, its downhill for this show. It has become boring compounded with bad acting primarily by the female lead. Even the presence of Mireille Enos can't save the show.

Evil
(2019)

Season 2 was a mess
Season 1 was good and enjoyable. But Season 2 was the complete opposite, most of the time I would fall asleep watching. What happened to the character of Kristen? Her character depicts the title of the show, EVIL. Season 2 was like an extension of Creepshow.

Diggstown
(2019)

Promising but...
It started well in Season 1 but from the middle of Season 2, it started its downfall in its writing, acting and story-telling. The female lead character started to become arrogant in her profession. Some stories are just hard to believe especially Season 3. Who agrees to a payout without NDA? It was also where we know the stories are going to - hate towards law enforcers and the justice system is a failure. What is the purpose of the character Avery aside from dating two lawyers and not winning a case? The best decorative character I've seen on television.

American Crime Story
(2016)

Impeachment must be the worst of the 3 seasons
Firstly, on the casting. The actress portraying Monica Lewinsky is just horrible, acting-wise and the physical similarity is just way off! The only positive thing is the great acting of Sarah Paulson. The voices of the actresses portraying Paula Jones and Monica Lewinsky is just annoying.

Penoza
(2010)

Great start but ends up so bad
First season was great no doubt about it. But starting with the second season, you will find a lot of "most" in this TV series namely: 1. The most stupid cop 2. The most stupid DA 3. The most despicable mother 4. The most despicable family 5. The most stupid boyfriend exposing his own son to a criminal family.

6. The most pathetic daughter 7. The most evil brother.

American Horror Stories
(2021)

Title of show says it all
Horrible stories, horrendous acting! First story even had two episodes? What a joke! The actress playing Ruby in the first story is the worst acting I have watched on TV. Why come up with this when there is the original American Horror Story?

War of the Worlds
(2019)

Season 2 is nowhere close to Season 1
Season 2 is SO BAD written-wise it could just be in 4 episodes instead of 8. It's very slow paced and acting at its worst. What turned Bill Ward into such a weakling! How incredible can one walk from France to London! It just turned so bad in Season 2 that marred the promising initial season.

The Girlfriend Experience
(2016)

From good to mediocre
Season 1 was good with Riley Keogh in the lead. She was perfect for the role. Season 2 was a disappointment story-wise but Anna Friel, it somehow eased my disappointment. Season 3 was mediocre and the most boring. I find Julia Goldani Telles "trying hard" but fails miserably. She is nowhere near Riley Keogh's depicting the girlfriend experience. This Season 3 should just be an episode in Black Mirror.

Queen of the South
(2016)

Final season spoiled everything!
So evil prevailed by letting Teresa live..oh yes for commercial purposes! What a shame! It would have been an excellent series. Didn't realized the CIA was that stupid in believing Teresa was already dead. Just too many unbelievable sequences in this final season.

Moloch
(2020)

Dark, too slow-paced
Story is interesting but could have been paced a little bit faster that I can't wait for the final episode. The female lead calls her herself a journalist? What a big joke! Oh yes, she will do anything to get her story and a jnkie turned "serious journalist". How despicable the ways she uses in getting her information. The most ridiculous is a cop giving his computer password to his girlfriend. LOL! The lead actress is a pretty face but that's it, one of the most boring acting I have watched.

Power Book II: Ghost
(2020)

A poor sequel to the original
Firstly, Tariq St. Patrick is no James St. Patrick. A poor try in making the son took over his father and what a bad actor who frowns every time he tries to act. Secondly, whoever did the wardrobe for the production design needs a lesson. Tariq wears a different jacket/clothes in every scene, where the hell does he keep all these in his dorm room? Same the flirtatious professor who was wearing a revealing dress in school??? Lastly, on the final episode's court scene where Tariq was put on the stand. Who would believe that charade? Poorly written. While the original portrayed James St. Patrick symbolizes power, this one doesn't have anyone.

The Beast Must Die
(2021)

Cush Jumbo is a favorite but not this series
After watching Episode 1, I already know the whole story so no point in watching the rest of the episodes. Pity that there's an excellent cast but I guess the way it was written became too predictable. A huge turn off was the detective with mental issues back to work...what will he do since the mother of the victim is doing all the policing?

The Blacklist
(2013)

Season 8
Watching this series from the start but this last Season 8 must be worst writing-wise. Scenarios are all to predictive and nowhere near previous seasons. The Blacklist is all about Raymond Reddington's character, that's it. Since the start I never liked the character of Liz Keen plus the worst acting I have watched on TV. Remove the Liz Keen and Agent Ressler characters and replace it with more interesting ones. Yiou also get to remove the worst actors on the series. Oh before pls include removing the character of Agent Park, which is a joke!

Engrenages
(2005)

Great storylines overall
I watched this due to its great storylines. Salute to its writers for coming up with such and coming up with the most pathetic and despicable characters I have ever watched on television in Laure Berthaud and Josephine Karlsson. Ms. Karlsson will do anything for her success and own good including betraying people close to her. Commander Berthaud's ways of policing also is for her benefit including stepping over colleagues and superiors. And her most despicable act - she cares more of other people than her own daughter! Also such a role model of sleeping with her 3 colleagues.
