Silo2023

S3 9.5 🥨

Absolute cinema. Predictable in stretches, but predictable done right hits just as hard. The show trusts the payoff more than the twist, and that works. Season 4 has one job: land it clean.

For All Mankind2019

S1 8.7 🥨
Contains spoilers · Show review

What if the Soviets beat us to the Moon and the Space Race never ended? Good premise, well executed. Each character is carrying their own war — personal, political, professional — and the show cuts between them like it’s got something to prove. Season 1 bites off a lot, but it chews. Less about rockets, more about what obsession does to people. Cold War anxiety wearing an astronaut suit. P.S.: The slow burn is real. Push through episode 3.

Your Friends & Neighbors2025

8.3 🥨

Really enjoyed Season 1 — strong storytelling and a great lead performance from Jon Hamm as Coop. The narration and infographic touches add a lot of personality and make it feel fresh. My only issue is that some of the sex scenes feel unnecessary and don’t really add to the story. Overall, a solid 8.3/10.

The Sopranos1999

9.3 🥨

The Sopranos feels like the breaking point for anti hero stories, with Tony Soprano being a straight up bad person that you still somehow root for, which is kind of crazy. It made this type of character normal on TV, mixing crime with real life stuff like family and anxiety in a way that actually feels real. And yeah. P.S.: Fuck Livia Soprano

Game of Thrones2011

S7 · E6 9.7 🥨
Contains spoilers · Show review

One of my favorite episodes. It feels bold and even a bit strange to send so many main characters on a mission beyond the Wall. That is also why I do not give it a perfect 10. Putting so many key characters in danger at once feels a little forced, and at times it is hard to believe they would all make it through.

Kung Fu Panda2008

9.2 🥨

My little brother used to watch Kung Fu Panda nonstop when we were kids, and even then I felt there was philosophy hiding behind the comedy. Watching it again now, Master Oogway’s line “yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift” feels almost Taoist. The empty Dragon Scroll says it all. There is no secret ingredient or fixed destiny. Meaning comes from accepting who you are and fully living in the present. I could go on and on with the philosophy stuff, but let’s keep it simple. Overall high concept. Shout out Leo 🫡

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms2026

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms feels like Westeros stripped down to its heart. Instead of juggling ten storylines like Game of Thrones, it focuses on one relationship: Ser Duncan the Tall quietly shaping the future King Aegon V. Dunk isn’t the hero who wins the game — he’s the setup pitcher preparing the closer, teaching honor, empathy, and leadership through small decisions rather than epic battles. The stories are intimate, character-driven, and deeply human, even if they sometimes end just when you want to stay longer in the world. A reminder that history isn’t only made by kings, but by the people who prepare them to rule.
