Lol. I just don't like it. It's too unrealistic and too easy for Jack Bauer all the damn time.
Anytime I watched it, I didn't feel one single tension that shït might happen to Bauer the slightest.

That show just seems like the face of what ESPIONAGE is all NOT ABOUT for me. So I low key hate it. I'd easily take Jack Ryan over it anyday anytime.

Kaycee7:
Would the fact that you watched it already knowing he'd appear in the next season have something to do with it?

Would've say espionage was one of its major genres. More like it had touches of espionage but never really fully explored or delved into it

Queen woo episodes 1 to 4 (part 1) is a solid 9/10 for me

Koreans are slowly taking over when it comes to making good series even with their low budgets as compared to Hollywood.

This is one of the best series i have enjoyed watching this year and if you think the game of thrones, house of cards have dark political plots then wait till you watch queen woo.
This is the series with the darkest political plots i have seen in a long time.
From family to allies to friends to enemies, everyone is planning one thing or the other.

Storyline 10/10
Sex and nudity 8/10
Dialogues 8/10
Thrill 10/10
Action 8/10

I can't wait for the episodes 5 to 8 to be released later this month.
For real guys, South koreans are taking over.

I might be over-stretching but I think Arcane is just like Avatar (the blue one) - it’s highly hyped and praised for a few months and after some months - no one even remembers the story or even re-inact plot by plot timelines very well despite how popular it becomes. No offense

Jazzman01:


If you are talking about thrills and good acting, Hollywood is very good at that and you can see it in most of their movies so it is nothing special. But when it comes to the plot and storyline, how interesting, realistic and believable is it? That is what sets most of these movies apart.

Why do you think "Breaking Bad" is rated as number one on the list of best TV series of all time? It has a rating of about 9.5 or 9.6/10. It is not full of thrills, Infact some people consider it boring but when it comes to being realistic, it is as close to reality as possible and of course very interesting.

24 is all Style and no substance. The perfect Vibes and insha'Allah candidate.

There is no rankings worth its salt that you'd see 24 included as amongst the greatest TV shows of all time. That's to show you how forgettable it is.
Even shows like Homeland, The Americans will easily enter top 50 contemporary shows of the last 20 years.

I didn't even watch up to the part you said he assaulted the POTUS..... If I watch that scene I might smash the TV. I like some level of realism in my entertainment especially when you're talking about the topics that show focused on. When no be Dragon Ball Z I dey watch. His wanton disobedience of superior orders is a huge turn off. Even Tom Cruise Maverick character in Top Gun, as he's so reckless and insubordinate, ain't worse as Bauer.

abduleez1:


I'd say its a matter of just you.

I clearly remember most of what went down in ARCANE S2 even tho it's been two years now.
Arcane isn't hype one bit. It's so fvvking good.

Arcane can jostle and beat any animation of the last five years and win. I'd even classify it amongst AOT, JJK, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Blue Eye Samurai etc.


I always regularly see Arcane hype and anticipation even before netflix announced its upcoming season few months ago.

Maxxim:

Wasn't expecting the sex scenes to be that intense, at some point I had to confirm if I was watching a Korean series

OhBritannia:
Rings of power season 2 episode 4 is a solid 8/10 for me.
It may seems as though most folks do not understand the true meaning of an Adventure series or an adventure movie.
This is why when i see ratings of the rings of power i just shake my head.

This series is the all embodiment of what we call a fantasy adventure series, it's more of a family series than the normal fantasy adult shows that's all out there and this is why comparing this show to other shows like House of the dragons makes no sense at all, it means you totally don't know anything about this business.

This show is unique on its own and brings nostalgic feelings as lovers of Lords of the rings and so far so good, this season two has been on point, reminds me so much of the Lords of the rings.
I can't wait for the rest episodes to drop, this season two has been solid so far.

Oga not just me🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ there're thousands of video saying how mediocre the arcane story is. The animation is excellent - even the story is well told but the story is very forgettable. It's over hyped bro- most of the reason Arcane is really popular is TikTok trends, you can't compare the story of Blue Eye Samurai to Arcane because of how interesting and really original the story is

Honestly I can't remember what it was all about. I plan to rewatch the S1 before S2 come out as a refresher.

Do you know that if you search Chinese women big boobs - it will show you AI generated girls with big boobs instead of actual Chinese women😂

It's not racism brother👀, it's just ignorance- any piece of art that's not Hollywood - it's immediately categorised as mediocre, it's not your fault they're just dumb

Not really. I watched it on cable and local stations then, at times not linear. I just felt no high stakes for the TV show. There was one episode where I watched they kidnapped his daughter or was it his wife and they escaped with her iirc, I just felt na sakamanji. Nothing go shele.
The show was too plastic feeling for me and I felt no connection or love for it.
Wetin even dey make me watch it sometimes sef na cos of friends and the discussion about Jack Bauer In classrooms. The whole race against time to save A-muh-ri-cah was so cliche for me. That nonsense timer with it's loud SFX they vex me sef. I can even hear it now. 😂😅

Bro, I watched parts of it then in my teenage years. The era I loved action, fights and all that and I still didn't really liked it then. Talk more of now when I have acquired a more refined taste in content. Watching it now, my experience might be actually worse.

But you see that Prison Break, it's always gonna be a darling. First 3 seasons tho.

Is elusive Samurai any good?

What about terminator zero

just started watching T-Zero, meh the first 3 episode was really good

Terminator in anime mode is just beautiful..

armadeo:



Maybe I agree I've seen AOT alot so I remember the story and what went down. I've seen blue eyes Samurai just once and I remember the exact plot line.

Asides the sisters and some politics in arcane I can't remember Jack about anyone. I don't even remember thier names

Kaycee7:
If I told you there were thousands of videos saying how mediocre the story of Breaking Bad is, would you agree and accept that it's overhyped?

Baddestguyp:


It's a common thing with most Western animation except The Last Airbender and Korra.

They are just too short and their events don't stand out in the long run. Praised but their plotlines are easily forgettable.

Most anime don't run into this problem because they are mostly divided into arcs, so it's easier to recall what happened in each arc...e.g Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer etc...
Even Chainsawman S1 was far more memorable than Arcane

No one discusses Arcane online, they just praise it and remember it as being good.
