QI s18e13*

Star trek discovery s03e11'

Death to 2020 (2020)* (meh - not as funny as it should have been - seemed like the script was massively rushed and they tried to get too much into the hour and a bit)

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)* (not as good as the first, a kinda boring at times - also that scene with the kids running into the road to play - its like it was written in the 80s)

The flight attendant s01e01-08*' (not bad, better than I was expecting - good for the single season that it is)

The queens gambit s01e01-07** (very engaging, can see why people are suddenly buying chess sets - the ending was anti-climatic)

MacGyver s05e01-03*

Star trek discovery s03e09-11*'

Have I got news for you s60e10-11*

Bobs burgers s11e10*

The Simpsons s32e10* (Are Fox and Hallmark part of the same company? Seems like an advertisement for the justification for that channel. Did have Skinner give it straight though..)

Family guy s19e09'

Young Sheldon s04e05'

The grand tour s04e02*

QI s18e13*

His dark materials s02e01-07*' (better than the first season I thought, didn't try to take on too much this time)

The Mandalorian s02e01-08**' (single handedly carrying the Star wars franchise)

The million pound question s01e02'

Blackish s07e06'

Young Sheldon s04e04'

Star trek discovery s03e08*

Have I got news for you s60e09'

The Simpsons s32e09 (this episode was a miss for me - because a teacher has a depressing life, she's allowed to be bad at her job - hmm no, she shouldn't be taking it out on the kids, and this was resolved badly)

Bobs burgers s11e09*

Family guy s19e08'

Pen15 s02e01-07* (wasn't bad, but the premise is wearing thin)

The Singapore grip s01e01-06* (there was controversy about this show - I can see the white saviour thing and the casual racism, but this isn't the only show that does this - there a whole load of shows that do this)

Moonbase s01e01-06* (I feel like I've seen this exact premise before...)

Size matters s01e01-02' (a bit pick and mix)

On the rocks (2020)** (actually much better than I expected it to be)

Jiu Jitsu (2020)* (south east Asian predator, with martial arts and Nic Cage - what's not to love)

Boss level (2020)*' (another Friday night movie, entertaining)

Big mouth s04e01-10*' (still good, got weirdly political for something that was about puberty)

Fear the walking dead s06e06-07*

Blackish s07e05-06*

Young Sheldon s04e03'

Have I got news for you s60e07-08*

Bobs burgers s11e07-08*

Family guy s19e07'

The Simpsons s32e07-08*

The million pound question s01e01*

Star trek discovery s03e06-07*

The crown s04e01-10*'

Soulmates s01e01-06* (that one episode of Black mirror, but a series)

Lego star wars holiday (2020)* (on paper, it could have been really good - but then they have the scene with Kenobi saying 'hello there', and Rey doesn't reply 'general Kenobi'... shame)

Fatman (2020)* (that one episode of Family guy expanded into a movie)

Animaniacs s01e01-13*' (it start off patronisingly self-aware, but is actually quite funny later on)

Mismatched s01e01-06' (this seems like its some foreign 'Indian's' fever dream of what college is like in India - I cannot see this being realistic - and to be honest the only redeeming episode is the last one where everything collapses)

Tenet (2020)*' (Its good, but I don't think this deserves the hype - the trademark Nolan fast pace scenes with just 'relevant' detail is a little dated now, and I don't think this helps the story)
