TV series and the last six months

It has been a while i've been here, and oh i missed it. Been too busy with other things but its good to be back fully this time ( i hope).
 Although i've been missing in action here, i never stopped being an addict and watching as many good tv shows as i could lay my hands on. The last year in tv shows has been an awesome blend of mind blowing episodes and extremely breathtaking season finales (i see you there Scandal, Revenge, Arrow.....). 
Also some new and exciting prospects have come up. Let me share with you some of the new shows i have been invested in this year.

House of Cards - Netflix

I love politics and i love to follow the games involved. House of cards does an absolutely brilliant job of telling stories of betrayal, regret, mistakes, control etc all revolving over what is the political scene in the US. If you love politics, join Francis Underwood on his quest to play the game and win.

Da Vinci's Demons - Fox/Starz 

What i really love about this show is the story telling. It takes some of the weirdest stories and some true stories about Leonardo Da Vinci and creates a fictional masterpiece. This is one show that makes you want to pay attention because if you miss something you might find yourself lost.

Orphan Black - BBC America

Someone asked me, what do you love most about orphan black and i said Tatiana Maslany, Tatiana Maslany, Tatiana MASLANY!!! I really never quite believed that a show about clones will be so good that i can confidently say it is one of the best tv shows in 2013. It has everything, sex appeal, quirkiness, weirdness (Felix i mean you...) and just the right amount of suspense to make it such a wonderful new show.

Hannibal - NBC

This one is still fresh and not so yummy (if you think that its about people eating people) but it still stands out as one of the best thing to happen to tv shows this year. Good casting, creative writing (sometimes too creative), a bit slow at times but it compensates with a perfect blend of suspense and thrill. Great one to watch.

The Americans - FX
If i were to choose my favorite new show in 2013, the americans would be right up there in contention. I always love a good amount of drama attached to every show and thats what this show does so brilliantly. Extremely great cast, good amounts of suspense, and the sex appeal adds up to make this one of the outstanding ones of 2013.

I'll leave you with these ones for now while i scamper about looking for more new shows to devour. Notable mentions however include, Rectify, Save me, Bates motel and Broadchurch. Keep your fingers crossed, I may just cover them in my next piece.

Till later......

NEW TV-SHOWS TO KEEP WATCHING!!

Hello Guys, it's definitely been a while. Since we last spoke a couple of wonderful new shows have come up and while some are here to stay, others have already been cut off. Here is the first part of the new show i'll encourage you to watch or keep watching as the case may be.

1. ARROW
No matter how you look at it, arrow is an excellent new show. Great script and great acting. One thing that stands out with arrow is the pace. It's not draggy but straight to the point and always keeping you guessing on what Oliver's plan is. Definitely one to keep watching

2. ELEMENTARY
The idea of a 21st century sherlock Holmes seemed far-fetched at first but i must say elementary gets it right in every aspect. Jonny Lee Miller makes this show worth the while with his breath-taking performances.

3. LAST RESORT
Before i go on a rant again as to why they cancel some shows, i think i'm justified in saying cancelling this show is a colossal mistake. I've come up with different theories on why it was cancelled like the US govt doesn't want to be seen in that light or someone is so cash strapped they had to cut it. Either way it's still a great new show and one to finish.

4. NASHVILLE
If you can't stand country and don't appreciate good music like i do, this show might be a drag but any genre of music you prefer, you can't fault the drama and acting in this show. Everyone plays their role brilliantly and i can only see it getting better.

5. GO ON
I already highlighted the brilliance of this show earlier on in my blog. Look it up and see why you should watch it

6. THE NEW NORMAL
If you like cheesy and more cheesy spread over fun and craziness, this is one you should be watching. oh the name also adds to the cheesy nature of the show

7. REVOLUTION

This one is a maybe but if you would take my advice, keep watching it. It starts of slow and terrible but it builds into something worth waiting and watching for.

If you haven't watched any of these, i advise you to start off with one. anyone at all (probably last resort or arrow) and tell me what you think.

until next time keep living in an atmosphere for creativity.
