| Jul 17, 2020 | Netflix | Cursed | Based on Arthurian legend. Nimue the fay is the hero. Arthur is race bent, and the baddies are “the holy Roman empire” (white man bad). The first few episodes are watchable, but not great. |

| Jul 3, 2020 | Prime | * * * Hanna – Season 2 | Bornesque superspy thriller. I liked the first season. Season 2 is good, but not quite as good as season 1 with Joel Kinnaman. |

| Mar 15, 2020 | HBO | Westworld – Season 3 | I liked season 1 but haven’t finished it. |

| Mar 6, 2020 | Apple | Amazing Stories | New episodes in Spielberg’s Twighlight Zone knock off. |
| Mar 5, 2020 | Hulu | Devs | Mystery in a high tech company. |
| Feb 27, 2020 | Netflix | Altered Carbon – Season 2 | Loved season 1. This season, Joel Kinnaman is replaced by Anthony “Falcon” Mackie. Finding it hard to get into. |
| Feb 21, 2020 | Prime | Hunters | Jordan Peale and Al Pacino are Nazi hunters. May be good. |

| Jan 23, 2020 | Netflix | * October Faction | Adaptation of the IDW supernatural graphic novel is full of unwatchably terrible teen drama briefly interspersed with mediocre demon hunting action sequences. I made it through only 2 episodes. |
| Jan 19, 2020 | HBO | Avenue 5 | Hugh Laurie comedy sci-fi. I like Laurie but my expectations are low. |
| Jan 12, 2020 | HBO | The Outsider | Supernatural crime/mystery based on the novel by Steven King. Stars Ben Mendelson. Really good. |
| Jan 4, 2020 | Netflix | * Dracula | Mediocre remake of the classic. I watched 2 of the 3 episodes. I don’t recommend it. |
| Jan 1, 2020 | Netflix | * * * * Messiah | Excellent drama about a man who comes out of the desert claiming to be the messiah. Walks the edge between him being the messiah or a clever con man. |
| Nov 4, 2019 | Epix | War of the Worlds | Based on the classic H.G.Wells novel. Could be good. |
| Oct 11, 2019 | Nickelodeon | Are You Afraid of the Dark: Curse of the Shadows | Junior horror series |
| Oct 4, 2019 | Hulu | Into the Dark | Episodic horror series released monthly. Each episode is inspired by a holiday. |
| Sep 23, 2019 | Fox | * * * Prodigal Son | Malcolm Bright, the son of the serial killer “The Surgeon”, trained by the FBI as a profiler, consults with the NYPD major crimes division. Michael Sheen is brilliant as Dr. Martin Whitley, AKA The Surgeon. |
