It genuinely is. I was so looking forward to Penny Dreadful, It is just my tate but it had shockingly bad pacing and hardly any characters to care much about.

I'm not through biggest OITNB fan and the last two seasons have been a little meh but at least it has well written characters. For the caliber of actor PD attracted I was very let down.

I stuck with Stranger Things because Winnona is amazing in it but I do think it is a bit overrated, still good but nothing to rave about like people have been imo

The show is alright when it is as far away from Piper and Alex as possible. Otherwise, yup it is.

Its well shot, scripted and acted and has some brilliant characters. I still think it's a great show BUT imo it went a little too hard core on the BLM stuff last season. I'm not saying it shouldn't have featured, just that it was about as subtle as a brick to the face, and to much like "sending viewers a message" rather than just for the sake of good TV. Also #justice4pornstache

I would agree with that, too. Arguably the two main characters... And the two who are most irritating and unlikeable .
