Little Death (2024)
Ran out of $ 30 mins in
No idea what the hell happened here but the first 30 mins was intriguing and creative. When they switch story lines everything died. It felt like they handed it off to a different crew and cast and told them to shoot it in one day. Not interesting at all and poorly done. We were so disappointed and angry to waste our time.

The Last Thing He Told Me (2023)
Why was this made?
The book was pretty bad so I was sure the show would be better but nope. I thought Apple would have had better writers. I love all these actors too so I'm bummed. I don't understand why Reese's company bought the rights to this. It's sexist. I'm sorry Laura Dave but this story is so lame. The wife is the idiot and has an inexplicable maternal bond to a horrible teenager? No one would've married someone whose kid was that mean. What is the message here? She's an independently successful childless woman and she's now complete and lucky to raise the teenager from hell? Maybe AI wrote this script.
Yellowstone (2018)
Michael Bay does Montana
Super contrived. Writing is simply awful. Would be great as a satire. I like the production and story but the writing is so bad. Characters are one speed and they need better development but I like them so keep watching. Beth is so overdone but she's captivating. Dialogue is laughable. I don't understand how this is Taylor Sheridan's writing.... Unless he wrote it in high school or this is really a joke. Feel like they googled "cowboy" and 2 regional facts to plug in to a 1997 teen drama template. The leaps they take are ridiculous. Nothing quite comes together... cheesy line... dramatic music... overacting ... This guy has so many great shows, wtf happened with this?
House of the Dragon (2022)
Not the worst but wtf
Casting is terrible and seems intentionally confusing. No one ages at the same rate. The king looks like he has been rotting for 20 years and his brother stays 35. Kids grow at soap opera pace. Grown up actors don't match their child versions, rather their siblings.
I know it's not GOT so not comparing but I just thought it'd be a broader story with better writing. The only storyline is the family soap opera which is hilariously entertaining. The violence is laughable and the fighting looks like kids with play swords. Sound is very odd... they make sure you hear all the slurping, labor groans, wheezing, squishing ... basically all off putting sounds are clear as a bell. No musical relief. Indecipherable accents. HBO phoned this in pretty hard.
