Compliments to Your Show

  Based on: Locke & Key  comic by Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez Developed by: Carlton Cuse, Meredith Averill, Aron Eli Coleite Starring: Darby Stanchfield (Nina Locke), Connor Jessup (Tyler Locke), Emilia Jones (Kinsey Locke), Jackson Robert Scott (Bode Locke), Aaron Ashmore (Duncan Locke), Brendan Hines (Josh Bennett), Kevin Durand (Frederick Gideon), Sherri Saum (Ellie Whedon), Coby Bird (Rufus Whedon) This season had a lot of ground to cover to wrap the series up, and I'm impressed how well it did so.  There were only a couple things I didn't like about this season, and one of them was just personal preference. One thing that was genuinely cringey was a rushed wedding to an NPC (very background character) that the show tried to make look heartfelt and nice. The wedding took place within one of the first eps and we were supposed to care about this relatively side character (Duncan, who we do care about, but he still isn't maj...

  Created by: Sterlin Harjo & Taika Waititi Executive producers: Sterlin Harjo, Taika Waititi, Garrett Basch Starring: Devery Jacobs (Elora Danan), D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai (Bear Smallhill), Lane Factor (Cheese), Paulina Alexis (Willie Jack)  I continue to love that this series is just an honest (as far as I know 👀) glimpse into life on the rez.  It's what drew my attention to it in the first place and it continues to allure me.

The entire first season had been spent preparing the gang for the trip, both mentally and financially, and the...

Created by: Aaron Ehasz & Justin Richmond Written by: Aaron Ehasz, Justin Richmond, Devon Giehl, Iain Hendry, Neil Mukhopadhyay Directed by: Villads Spangsberg & Giancarlo Volpe Starring: Jack DeSena (Prince Callum), Paula Burrows (Rayla), Sasha Rojen (King Ezran), Jason Simpson (Viren), Racquel Belmonte (Claudia), Jesse Inocalla (Soren), Rena Anakwe (Queen Janai), Benjamin Callins (Terry), Erik Todd Dellums (Aaravos)  My overall impression of this season was that it maintained the quality of the show, but I didn't feel like it improved. Season 3 was still the most jaw-dropping, and there were frankly a few things I think this season did wrong.  For one thing, I think this season emphasized its humor over embracing the seriousness of the ideas it was covering. That's where season 3 did better. And one thing that I flat-out hated about this season was the humor... the whole series has not done well with humor, but this season was a new low. I co...
