The Chosen (2017)
Watch this amazing story as never before brought to life!
Do yourself a great favor and watch The Chosen. I've read in the Bible all my life about Jesus being born and living as a man here on earth but I have to say THIS is the first time I've seen Him portrayed as a real and relatable mortal human being. Kudos to Jonathan Roomier and to all the team involved in The Chosen, the cast, the writers, directors and all. No previous portrayal has brought Jesus or the Bible to life the way this exceptional show has.
I have only one request to the show. Please don't rush though these stories. Because we know where this leads, and I don't know how y'all will tackle the Crucifixion, but please do not hurry through His story to that event. I understand that His dying for us was the greatest of gifts but I am in no hurry to reach those scenes. We all love seeing this story of Jesus and His Followers. Love seeing Him with a great sense of humor! So well made in every way!!! A definite 10*** in my book!
The Company You Keep (2023)
Good writing but no chemistry
I've watched a couple of episodes now and just trying to hang in there. I watched initially because I'm a fan of Milo Ventimiglia and of William Fichtner. I do think the writing is good and enjoy the heists carried out by the family of crime. Maybe if more planning went into the lead couple, Charlie and Emma. So far, they just seem to have started with a forced humorous meeting but somehow ended up in bed for the weekend or whatever. Just no romance, tension or build-up. Purely an emotionless physical attraction and I don't feel the chemistry there. I'll give it a little longer and hope for the best.
ER: A Long, Strange Trip (2009)
Best Episode of This Season!!
Definitely the best episode of the season and one of the best for several years. Just as I was beginning to wonder why they even produced this last season at all I see this episode that made it worth it all. A tear jerker to be sure. My one complaint, I don't know why they didn't devote the entire episode to the story of Dr. Oliver and his achievements to the er and emergency care. Rarely have I gotten emotionally attached to the patients on the show but Dr. Ollie was one. Of course I've always enjoyed Dr. Morganstern as well. Lastly, in my opinion they focused too much on the lives of the staff this season (actually the last several seasons) instead of the er and the patients there. This episode was a tribute to a great show.
Hannibal (2013)
Great show. Cast, writing, production, all were perfection.
Only thing wrong with Hannibal is that it ended much too soon. Have read that some want to bring the series back. Please do! I have just begun re-watching the series on DVD. To me, Mads Mikkelsen performs Hannibal with a style and charisma never before seen. All of the cast and crew did especially beautiful work.
