Recently catched up on The Walking Dead (seasons 8 and 9) and Fear The Walking Dead (seasons 4 and 5), after I haven't been watching those shows for years. While they tend to get a bit repetitive at times, I still really enjoy those shows.
Next up is... I really don't know, I have too many shows I want to watch.

I recently finished dark too. In my opinion the best german tv series. In the original sound some dialogues sound a bit unnatural, especially in the first season, but this is compensated by some terrific acting, a great background sound and a dense atmosphere. The ending scene reminded me partly of Christopher Nolan's Interstellar. 8.5/10

Now I have also finished the third season of true detective. This one is of course much better than the second one, but it never comes close to the 10/10 first one. 7.5/10

Jesus, that first season of True Detective is still a god damn masterpiece. I still remember that last scene of episode 3 and it's giving me goosebumps every time

Rewatched 2 seasons of Bluestone 42, and damn, it might be one of my favourite (casual/comedy) series. It's just hilarious, although, as any comedy series, it gets less funny and more predictable as the seasons go by.

-----------------

Also rewatched the first two seasons of Ultimate Force. A bit gritty, which I like, but constantly screws it up with inaccuracies. The only possibly realistic element of it is the private lives of them. It doesn't glorify these people (SAS), it clearly isn't a recruitment type of series (unlike the US counterparts). It shows their troubled backgrounds (violence), troubled family lives, troubled relationships, PTSD etc. I think these were all spot on. The drama feels very real, and I don't think I've seen anything like it since. It depicts the characters very well, and bad shit happens to them...at first.

But whenever a gun shoots, it all goes to hell. As the series went on, they have increasingly reached for the spectacular missions, improbable plans and never-ending shooting scenes with lots of bullets. So much so that I (again) couldn't go past season 2. And it's a shame, it had some potential.

TD1 is a 10/10 type of series, a rare breed. Just incredible. Enjoyed 2 and 3, but not as much. Not even fair comparing them. Initially, I loved their conversations about faith and religion, but as I rewatched it, I've come to love that exact scene.

Since 90% of all friends I have both irl and online are anime fans, I've decided to watch some myself. I'm currently halfway through Re:ZERO now and will continue watching Fate/stay night after I've finished it. Gotta say, this stuff is really good.

Cool, now I'm watching watching Fate/stay night, Overlord, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid and Isekai Quartet at the same time. Looks like I'm becoming one myself VERY quickly.

Nathan For You.

I've watched the series once already, excluding the 80/120 minute-long finale. I'm a huge fan of the show, made me laugh so hard.

But the series finale is something else. While during the entire show, you can kinda tell who/what's fake and what isn't, but here, you just can't. And I don't care even if it's fake or real (it's a bit of both), it made me feel lots of things. The ending itself is incredibly powerful.

Watched Dark season 3 aprox one month ago. Honestly, this is probably one of the best if not THE best series I've ever seen. Genius.

Just finished watching The Last Dance on Netflix, aka the Michael Jordan documentary. Its pretty cool, I always love watching programs on legends like this man. He may be the best athlete the world has ever seen. Good one.

I've only watched a couple of anime shows, unfortunately:

I got two anime suggestions for you. The first is Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood, which is one of the best I have ever seen and considered one of the all time greats, if not the greatest, by some. And then the original Berserk from 1997, which is my favourite story of all time. Its very old and low budget (especially first two episodes) but guarantee that if you can look past that you will be blessed with the best character development and engaging story you will ever see. Its very dark and has the most bombshell ending in TV history. Both should be watched in Dub, especially FMA, which is 10/10 dubbing.

Rewatched Fate/Apocrypha (because it's fricken amazing) and finished Fate/Zero, Fate/stay night and Fate/Grand Order - The First Order while on holiday. I'm getting Full Metal Alchemist, Attack on Titan and Boku No Hero recommended a lot as well, thinking of checking those out too.

Just started watching it. Looking forward to it, strong start so far.
