Hawaii Five-0: Pa'a Ka 'ipuka I Ka 'Upena Nananana (2016)
Great episode, horrible stunt actors
Great episode, but ruined by the stunt actors. They didn't even try to make them look like the actors, so for me it broke all immersion.
The writing gets worse during the episode, and at the end it's not even believable anymore.
However, if you don't mind that and just want a lot of action... Just ignore this review, there is enough of that.
The Rookie: The Q Word (2020)
The 'plot twist' is not really a plot twist
If you paid any attention to the show, you saw this coming from a mile away. Such a shame, this could have been soo much better.
How the show started as a pretty unique concept, it ended as a similar show like any other cop show. Time to find something new...
The Rookie: The Dark Side (2019)
Amazing episode. But unoriginal writing.
Seriously. The episode was AMAZING. They did something different to switch it up, but the ending was just stupid.
"O hey.. I finally talked to a random guy... Sadly the only random guy in the entire bar I just talked to was a bad guy".
I don't post many reviews but this episode is very simple and lacks creativity. Typical Hollywood 9 to 5 writing.
The Good Doctor: I Love You (2020)
Simple writing, amazing actors
First of all, (besides the horrible ending) this episode was great. Massive character development, and amazing plot development (cutting off legs, Shawn and Lea getting together, Dr. Reznick losing the abilities in her hands, etc...) made a great episode...
But let's talk about the 'big thing'... I get it... Dr. Melendez died.
I understand writers killing of main cast (for whatever the reason may be), but using tricks like "I love my boss" 2 episodes before he is being killed is just bad writing. The writers just wanted to give more impact without getting creative.
Well guess what, they succeeded. I am done with the show.
I do want to be clear here. At no point I am blaming any of the actors, as the acting was absolutely amazing.
It's just the writers that decided they don't care about the characters at all, and wanted to go home at 5PM instead of spending some extra time making it great.
Because of the amazing acting and the great plot twists I am still giving it a 6 out of 10.
I always loved the mix of politics and unique characters, so this is what I will remember the show for. I will keep recommending this show to everyone I know (up to season 3).
But for any fans still loving the show, I am truly hoping the next season fixes all of underwhelming writing. I just know that I won't be around for it.
NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service: ...and Executioner (2019)
O come on...
I love NCIS, I truly do... But episodes like this make me want to stop watching...
A highly respected judge that suddenly starts giving orders to kill people? Typical hollywood writing...
The main reason I like NCIS is because they try to stay away from that.. Well... they failed big time...
