Avatar The Last Airbender is a masterpiece of a show. It’s a bit of an older show but don’t let that discourage you from watching it. It has such a great vibe to it and the character development is truly top tier. Even though the show’s main target audience is for kids it is still very enjoyable for adults and has really goofy moments that are also still very enjoyable. I think the soundtrack is so pretty as well and the main plot of the show has many amazing messages and themes behind it. I love this show so much and recommend it to anyone who has never seen it. It’s definitely worth the watch!

Fantastic Four: First Steps truly is a movie about Marvel’s first family. They did such a good job with the CGI and the retro feel of the New York and the casting was done well too. I was so excited for the MCU to introduce these characters for so long and it’s extremely relieving to finally say they’re in the MCU and had a fantastic introduction. The villains also were pretty cool to see in this movie. Galactus and Silver Surfer did not disappoint. It makes me so happy to see lots of successful marvel projects back to back. The end credits were definitely worth waiting for and I highly recommend staying till the end for them if you are a Marvel Fan and are looking forward to Avengers Doomsday.

Stranger Things has been my favorite Netflix show since it released back in 2016. I was just going into middle school when it first came out and now I'm halfway through college. It has been a big part of my life and I will always hold a special place for the show despite not growing up in the 80's. I love this show so much that I even went to Fan Expo Dallas one year to meet Gaten and Caleb who play Dustin and Lucas in the show. Anyways the show takes place in the 80's in a small town called Hawkins which is located in Indiana. The town obviously has strange things happening to it. There are monster sightings which lead to people going missing and the town starts to catch on and assume the town is cursed. A group of kids alongside the towns main police officer are the ones who manage to save the day by meeting a girl who has special powers and can help fix things back to the way they are supposed to be. The show has evolved greatly since season one but all the seasons have been a hit and I truly think they do such an incredible job with every aspect. Whether its the music or setting from the 80's, or the character development, or even the acting it all comes down to be very well thought out and I cannot recommend this show enough if you haven't seen it yet.

Outer Banks starts out very strong with an insane plot and great actors. The overall tone of the show is really fun and crazy too. The show is about a bunch of teens from the Outer Banks in North Carolina who all get into treasure hunting and will do whatever it takes to get their hands on the treasure. There are lots of scenes which feel very intense and keep you on the edge of your seat, while some other scenes can be a bit repetitive. Whenever a new season would come out I would always watch it the second Netflix would release it since I was such a huge fan. I still am a fan of the show but definitely not as much as I used to be after watching season four. I wont get into any spoilers but I was extremely disappointed with the season four finale and some of the writing choices. I was somewhat skeptical about Netflix's response to one major change to the show in the finale too. I know I'm not alone when I say I didn't like season four but I still would consider the show really solid overall and I look forward to see how they continue the show moving into the final season.

Invincible is another series that does a fantastic job making an adaptation from a comic. The voice acting is well done and I think the animation style is quite interesting despite how basic some people describe it. The overall plot of the show so far has been great and I always am so tempted to read the comics to find out what may happen next but I hold back because I don't want to reveal any character arcs or development. I think all of the characters themselves are really fascinating too. They chose to give the characters in this show super complex or unique powers, especially Eve. Finally, the soundtrack in this show is great. The songs they choose really do fit super well with the scenes they are matched up with and give a really cool vibe. I look forward to the future of the show!

As someone who typically enjoys Marvel over DC this movie went way beyond my expectations. I have seen lots of the Arrowverse CW shows and I have also seen a few DC movies over the years... Shazam, Aquaman, The Flash, and The Batman. None of them I really enjoyed all that much. They were just okay, but this Superman movie did such a great job keeping me interested and feeling personal connections to the characters. I got really emotional during certain scenes since I related so much to the movie. The overall plot was really interesting too in regards to the message his parents sent with him when he was a baby. It was a nice change considering I think most superman origins did not include this aspect. I also loved this movie's Lex Luthor. He did such a good job that I really did hate his character because how good we has at being evil. Other than the plot and villain, the soundtrack and humor were both top tier as well. Krypto was so funny to watch! Also seeing Kara at the end really got me excited since I knew of her character from the CW Supergirl show. I am excited to see how both Superman and Supergirl continue to develop and grow in the future of this new rebooted DCU! BTW... Thank you James Gunn for this absolute masterpiece of a movie!

The Last of Us does a great job making a series from a video game. The casting and overall plot are extremely well done and I wouldn't want it any other way. I like the LGBTQ+ representation in this show too. Their take on the zombie apocalypse is also really neat! Additionally, the set design, zombies, and music are all outstanding. I started playing the games after I got introduced to the show and I really am enjoying The Last of Us in general. Looking forward to season 3!

As someone who has never played League of Legends I can confidently say this show does an amazing job with literally every aspect of it despite how you feel about League of Legends. The animation, plot, voice acting, soundtrack, and world building are all done so well. At first I was hesitant to try watching it because it's based on League but I am so happy I did. You don't need to know anything about League to truly enjoy this show.

Superstore is probably my favorite comedy show of all time. It has so many relatable and funny characters. It also just has a crazy vibe to it which makes it so entertaining and got me hooked onto it right away. I usually don't enjoy sitcoms too much but this is a must watch. I also really like how they incorporated covid into the final seasons. I worked in a grocery store during covid and heavily related to many of the episodes where that was covered.

I really like this show but the last 2 seasons fell off in terms of quality. The finale kind of ruined lots of character development and arcs and had some strange scenes. I really enjoyed the first 2 seasons though. Allison was my favorite character and their whole family dynamic was interesting to see. I do think that they did a great job making a show based off of the original comics though. The music choices and soundtrack in the show is always phenomenal too.
