Or at least the shows I'm watching feels like are on a roll.
The last episode of Invincible is tomorrow. The show's been great, almost as perfect as ever, only wish we had a few scraps of the good animation outside the climactic fights.
Daredevil season 2 blows the last season out of the water, especially with that last episode, holy!
The Boys Season 5 feels like a back to form, after the poor 4th season and a rather mixed 3rd.
Maul: Shadow Lord feels like it's taken cues from Andor in terms of it's tone, character building and structure. Maybe I'm overhyping it, but I haven't seen a Clone Wars artstyle this gripping since I watched the namesake show's latter half. And I mostly enjoyed the Bad Batch and Tales series.
Year started off strong with Knight of the Seven Kingdoms as well. Been a very good year overall.

I’m only up to episode 3 of the new season which I loved (for obvious reasons to anyone who’s seen it) but on the whole it’s dropped off considerably. I just don’t think they’ve done a good job replacing the core cast from the first two seasons, and this season so far has massively lacked any cool space set pieces which is what they always nailed.

My mistake with the Pitt was not waiting to binge it IMO. Every week you see some discussion about the latest episode and an analysis on the little details on each character where you're burned out on the character's "flaw".
Like I deeply understood that Dr. Robby needed help by like episode 3, I burned out on that topic by episode 15 - which was pretty much the buildup of the entire season.

ConsistentGuest75324 days ago

In my opinion it’s the greatest superhero show ever made. I do not say that lightly, as a Daredevil fan. But it’s so damn consistent; every season builds to a satisfying climax, every main character is fleshed out and complex. You have your occasional filler episodes but overall, the writing is very emotionally affective and intelligent while still being in a high-adrenaline action show.
What also elevates Invincible is that it is both a mature show and also a superhero show. There is a love for superheroes baked into it that *really* differentiates it from the many “heroes but edgy/gory/realistic” takes we’ve seen in recent years. The heroes aren’t reduced to crass deconstructions—they are just human beings.
I will admit the critiques about the animation are justified; it’s outright ridiculous how small the animation team is, and when other well-funded shows like Arcane and JJK look so incredible, it is hard to excuse the visuals here. But they’re not unpleasant to look at. They’re functional for the story, mostly look decent, and sometimes look incredible.

tunaMaestro974 days ago

I’m liking it too, but I feel like they’ve really cheapened the stakes with the ridiculous amounts of violence this season, as well as the inconsistent power scaling. The protagonists should all be dead ten times over, and the main villain seemingly could have killed them any time he wanted? Just makes it hard to take as seriously.
1
moving_asunder4 days ago

I agree with your first point but the latter point is actually a strength I feel. I like the idea of a villain that CAN actually kill our heroes whenever he wants but there’s actually good reasons for him not doing so. Thragg loves his people over all else.

It's not revisiting anything. It's set a year after Revenge of the Sith and it details a part of Maul's story that's mostly only been hinted at or told in exposition in the other previous animated shows and teased at the end of Solo. Also we see the end of his whole reign as a crime lord in the final season of TCW that came out six years after the previous one. If you didn't already know, he didn't die in TPM. He was brought back in TCW. He was going insane and had cobbled himself together some spider-y mech legs. The Dathomir witches conjured him up some bipedal metal legs and he also had a brother that's yellow instead of red named Savage Opress (lol). Then he dies in Rebels in a f****** amazing sequence.
They brought this character back from the dead and gave him some of the best character development in all of Star Wars. Up there with Anakin himself and Ahsoka Tano.

Big Mistakes was good. Created by Dan Levy and Rachel Sennott. Both are brilliant. Too bad Rachel had to drop out of playing the sister because of scheduling conflicts with I Love LA but Taylor Ortega was a great replacement and Dan Levy is always fun to watch.
Beef season 2 is really good, watched half so far. I think it's Cailee Spaeny's best performance yet. Love her. She could be a huge star if she wanted to be. One of the best young actors right now. Everyone else on it is also doing a great job.

Is that what happened? Watching it I was thinking "this character is very Rachel Sennot coded" and then was less than surprised to see her as a creator. The character felt like her and the sweaty claustrophobia of the family scenes screamed Shiva Baby.
Only watched the first episode but excited to see more.

Yep. Taylor even sorta looks like Rachel!
I still haven't seen Shiva Baby yet but Rachel is so smart and funny. I Love LA was great. All the characters in that show are sincere and serious about what they're doing but the show is clearly a satire of that Gen Z LA influencer lifestyle. It's so funny.

Oh you have to watch Shiva Baby. It's what sold me on her as a talent, and you'll see the DNA connection with Big Mistakes for sure.

Let's not forget listnooks favorite show Euphoria, which I'm actually enjoying thus far.

I've not noticed any great hype for Euphoria on Listnook though. Just another show it has seemed.

Was just being sarcastic as the sentiment shared was that this season isn't good.

I agree, the resurgence of quality television shows has been really great to see..
However, the streaming services we're dependent on for entertainment have me pining for cable/satellite tv. Which is a bonkers statement if you ask me 5 years ago.

Invincible is amazing per usual (expect the same for the next 4 years).
I enjoy maul shadow lord more than I'd like to admit. The art style and animation is great, and Is a cool take on the classic filoni animation style. It features a few excellent glup shittos, and Sam witwer is as brilliant as ever. I think the show does have it's share of problems, mainly the plot doing nothing to develop maul or characters being stupid but that's just classic Dave filoni and I can live with it. Overall I'd say it's perfectly watchable.
Now I personally think daredevil born again is atrocious. The first season was some of the worst television I ever watched, season 2 does improve on a few parts but there is still so much wrong with it that in my mind, the only way to enjoy it is to completely shut your brain off(which is something I refuse to do).
I haven't liked the boys universe since season 3, I thought both seasons of gen v were pretty bad as well as season 4. Season 5 IS better, but not by a lot. I don't even much to say about it because from the start it was walking on a very thin rope above a pool of bad writing. It fell down that pool in gen v season 1 and it's been drowning ever since. Now I hope the latter half of the season is better, but the episodes we got so far give me no hope

You watched 4 seasons of a show you don’t like anymore? Why are you still watching the boys if you haven’t liked it since S3 lol

I like the first 3 seasons and I think shows have ups and downs, regardless I watch it all. I don't have much hope for the rest of season 5, but I want to see how things will end with the boys and homelander. I'm allowed to like it even if I think it's bad don't I?

Generally I don't watch any series anymore until it has ended
Binge at my own pace and not having to wait 1.5+ years between seasons and completely forgetting what was going on

This is a bit of a more lesser known show, but Dorohedoro season 2 just released and I highly recommend anyone to check that anime out. It's incredible and unlike any other anime.

The Boys Season 3 was the best of the show, what? Mixed? Only the finale's last 15 minutes were bad.
Soldier Boy is an absolute riot, everything he says is funny.

Maul is quite good.
While it's live action, i truly want Ahsoka Season 2 to take a look at it for the tone.

Daredevil feels like the same season since the first show on Netflix, do other Evil people like that Major exist in that universe?

Even though *Euphoria* S3 is kind of solid, the opening scene of the first episode was really good.

Boys has been great. Only thing I don't like is kimikos voice. The A train arc was amazing
But man... invincible is on another level
