I can't say enough how well season 1 and 2 were. Stories of young people coming to terms with their sexuality whilst dealing with real life family/friend problems. But also fantastic drops of comedy. The characters felt real. Otis, Meave, Eric, Amiee, Adam all have issue that many people face at some point especially in the younger years. From sexual assault, bullying family members to simply falling in love with your friend. A story we all wanted to watch.
But by season 3, the drama and comedy was becoming a little over the top and even the Otis/Meave storyline was running a little thin. At risk of becoming a Ross and Rachael fiasco. But Season 3 had a hilarious singing performance towards the final. Season 4 however is just a depressing slow ending. There is very little comedy. Even Eric has become boring and depressed. Most of the cast have if I'm honest. Meave is depressed. Adam is still depressed. Otis is just angry. Jean is depressed. I could literally go on.
It's a shame. I really loved this show but I wish it was just cancelled after season 3.

I honestly can't believe how amazing this movie was. It was hilarious, heartbreaking and visually stunning all rolled into one.
The movie gives a brilliant backstory to Rocket whilst the rest of the guardians are on a mission. I must warn, The backstory isn't for the faint hearted and it will become emotional. My wife doesn't cry at movies but this had her sobbing. But it's also filled with cute and sweet moments which probably only add to the heartbreak but they were still lovely moments.
The main story itself has a great plot with all the guardians doing a great job but for me, I applaud Pom Klementieff. She has really brought Mantis from a background character to easily one of the funniest in the MCU who can lead scenes with strength.
Also we finally have good CGI back!
I couldn't recommend this movie enough and already can't wait to watch it again. Probably my favourite since Infinity War.

I never thought I'd see a tv show with Ray Romano and Chris O'Dowd let alone one as brilliant as this. It's dark comedy is timed perfectly with the gritty story of a hit man who works for the cartel yet finds his way into producing Hollywood movies along with his best friend ( also a hit man ). Throughout the 3 seasons there are ups and downs, twists and turns, laughs and shocks but the storytelling is by far the masterpiece of this show. The acting is very good with Romano being the comedy relief when needed ( his whole storyline is funny as it just gets worse for him as the show progresses ) and O'Dowd very quickly makes you realise he can play a sinister, cold person who will do anything for himself or his family.
My only downer is I'm not too sure that season 3 was planned to be the final season. It kinda cuts short and doesn't close anyone's story as such. Seeing as I'm writing this in 2023, I doubt there's anymore episodes planned. But still a fantastic watch. I've said what I can without spoiling any plot lines but watch this and enjoy.
