Review: The Stranger (2020)

  Series Review: The Stranger (2020) Seasons: 1 Episodes: 8 Description:  Follows the lives of suburban families whose secrets and lies are made public by the appearance of a stranger. First of all: The accents are so lovely and Richard Armitage is so hot!  I love this show. It starts slowly, the events don't seem to be connected. The secrets revealed are often not the  secrets one would expect in typical shows like these, some are actually shocking. From faking pregnancies to hiding bodies - everything is there. During the show I was afraid that it would turn into a typical show about secrets but it didn't. That's a huge plus, the story in this show is new. I liked how they built the tension throughout the episodes for the big unraveling and reveal of the connections. The stranger is also a beautiful sight, the actress has a very handsome face and she sticks out in the small town. We mostly see middle aged people and kids, not many people in their 20's like her.

Review: Barbarians (2020)

  Series Review: Barbarians (2020) Seasons: 1 Episodes: 6 Description: Torn between the mighty empire that raised him and his own tribal people, a Roman officer's conflicted allegiances lead to an epic historical clash. Barbarians is about the Germanic people, set in AD 9. The tribes are being tormented by the Romans and the Germanic tribes strike back in an epic battle.  Being a huge Vikings  fan, I had been looking forward to the release of Barbarians.  I was promised, that it would be even more brutal and just as well-made. To be bold, I didn't enjoy watching the series as much. I couldn't keep my attention to the screen and my mind wandered while watching. The brutality showed itself in the sacrifice of children and heads on spikes, which reminded me of the first season of Game of Thrones.   What I admire about the series is the use of language. The Romans mostly speak Latin and the barbarians speak German. Most of the cast is German too, adding to the authenticity of t

Review: Chambers (2019)

  Series Review: Chambers (2019) Seasons: 1 Episodes: 10 Description:  A woman survives a heart transplant and begins to develop different personality traits. Chambers  is a series about a girl who gets the heart of another girl. The two girls have/had totally different lives, one is rich, white and very popular while the other is native American, lives in a bad neighborhood and doesn't have many friends. A series like this could have gone many ways, it could have been a total cliché with things like falling in love with the same people the dead girl loved or developing a connection to the parents. It surprised me, although there were hints of those cliché things, there were many unexpected things as well. What I like a lot about the series in general is how it shows the contrast between a rich, white family in the suburbs and a poor, Navajo family in a somewhat criminal neighborhood. The series shows many hints of native American culture, especially later on in the season. As I am
