Shrinking (2023)
Exceptional! Exceeded Expectations
For the most part this show sticks to the classic sitcom formula, but it does take a few risks here and there and manages to put together a pretty solid comedy series. Personally I wasn't a big fan of Jason Segel and mainly watched this show because of Harrison Ford, but both of their performances were outstanding and with the added great performances by the rest of the cast is what makes this show one of the best sitcoms I have seen in recent years. Derek & Liz are amazing together, I love the working crossing/blurring into personal relationships that Jimmy, Gaby & Paul have. Alice plays such a great role as Jimmy daughter and I love the interaction / relationship she has with Paul and the interaction with Sean's character. I like that there's actually very noticeable character growth with all the major characters in this series. Throw on some solid writing and tada! You have yourself a hit! - I'm glad I gave this show a chance.
The Ark (2023)
Not bad SYFY Channel
Not bad for the SYFY channel. It looks like they were trying to replace The Expanse with another less expensive space drama. It's probably not fair to compare this series to The Expanse and so far the storyline in the first two episodes is just mediocre but does have potential with a murder mystery, something weird found at the impact site and many characters appear to be hiding something. The acting is OK, a few characters even stand out like Stacey Read's character. The Ark will probably satisfy most space opera & science fiction fans, but the next few episodes will tell if they can appeal to or retain a larger viewing audience.
