To qualify for my Watch List every month, the following has to be something that I've watched that's new to me. It doesn't necessarily have to be a current show, but it can't be reruns or rewatches of something I've already seen. So if I'm including it in this list, it means this month is the first time I've watched it. I'll put "DNF" (Did Not Finish) next to anything that I stopped watching and have no immediate plans to finish. Movies The Bigfoot Family Television The Last of Us (Season 1) The Rookie (Season 3) The Rookie (Season 4) The Rookie (Season 5) Punisher (Season 1) With all of the "Game of Thrones" going on, I didn't have a ton of time to watch movies or television in April. The Bigfoot Family was the only new movie I watched and it wasn't a very good one, but it kept my kids occupied for a couple of hours. On the television side, I'm just now getting around to finishing up the Netflix/Marvel shows by watching the first season of The Punisher, which was pretty good. I also enjoyed The Last of Us which was incredibly well-conceived and executed. But my top pick of the month (if it wasn't apparent from the fact that we blazed through three seasons of it) was The Rookie. My wife loves procedurals and I tend to find them tedious and repetitive, but this one has enough good characters and story development to maintain my interest. Or at least my interest in background entertainment while I spent the month reviewing and writing like crazy! TOP PICK: The Rookie |
