^ Actually I prefer Alone, a reality series which is being re-shown on Defy, Saturdays at 11pm.

I never watch reality shows, but maybe if it shows up on something we're subbing.

^ When you leave eight people by themselves miles apart in the Arctic for months with nothing but a camera and a few camping supplies, it's pretty compelling.

Show Of The Year 2024?

I would need to go back through my reviews to be sure, but certainly Fallout stands out for me. Perfection.
Nautilus was a very pleasant surprise and helped me though a tough week. Worth mentioning are Dark Matter and Bad Sisters which I enjoyed a lot.

Streaming Service of the year?
Apple TV+ for me. Great sci fi shows such as Dark Matter and Silo ( and with more Foundation and Severance to come it's not letting up). On the downside I can't stand Ted Lasso but unfortunately there is another season to come. Shrinking is so much better imo.

Dud Of The Year?
Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power Season 2. Sheer crappola, badly acted and a production that just went off the rails. Season 1 wasn't great either but it was watchable at least.

I actually enjoyed Rings of Power despite the obvious issues with it. I just rolled with it and enjoyed what I could. Unfortunately, we're in a time when Peter Jackson's vision is considered great fantasy, which is influencing other series, intentionally or not. I'm the one guy out there who's not a Jackson fan.

Watching Silo now.

I as going to wait until Silo had fully dropped before starting. But, we couldn't wait any longer and watched just one episode last night. Season 2 finishes 17 Jan 25, so we'll have to ration ourselves lol. A great show.

Starring the rather wonderful Rashida Jones, Sunny is the name of a homebot and explores ideas of AI exhibiting human like intelligence. Filmed on location in Japan, it never seems to know whether it wants to be a philisophical piece or a comedy thriller. It manages not to be both in the process and is actually overly nasty at times for me. At time of writing it's not clear whether it will get to Season 2. 6/10

Apple have now confirmed that they won't be preceeding with a Season 2. I'm not surprised as my review suggested, although such a shame for Rashida Jones, hopefully she will have another project to go to.
