Candice Renoir (2013)
Jumped the shark
I thoroughly enjoyed the first 5 seasons and gave the series an 8 score. The characters of Candice and the other policemen and women, her children and her love interests were well fleshed out and quirky enough to hold interest. Now having watched half of Season 6 available on Acorn I have downgraded my rating to 6. Candice's new love interest has made her character ridiculous. I also have scanned some of the brief descriptions of seasons 7-10, and it appears the stories become even more silly, especially about the interactions between Candice and Antoine. I'm sorry to say I have quit watching the series.
Hamilton (2020)
Complex
Highly complex plot requiring full attention. I had to watch the full series twice before I understood the relationships and picked up on a few clues dropped casually only once. I also was initially confused by the strong resemblance between the Swedish politician Sissela and the CIA handler Haig: same facial structure, same clothes style, same hairstyles. I have seen and liked very much most of the previous Hamilton movies and series, and this holds up very well in comparison.
