Personally I prefer oldies but goodies but sometimes I'll check out New Science Fiction shows or Horror Anthology shows.

I recently watched the first season of Foundation.



Far in the future, The Empire is about to face a reckoning unlike anything else it's faced before: several Millenia of chaos has been predicted by the galaxy's leading psycho-historian: Hari Seldon. But can The Empire offset the disaster before it begins?

I dunno, it was difficult for me to get into it.
I read the Foundation books 30-35 years ago and loved them but this show is a mess.
When Season 2 releases I might try a few episodes but I'm not too excited about it.

I also watched the first season of La Brea.



A massive sinkhole mysteriously opens up in Los Angeles, separating part of a family in an unexplainable primeval world, alongside a desperate group of strangers.

I don't mind an fantasy series once in awhile but this show seemed too predictable and typical of an Asylum made movie. Expecting a prehistory survival series what I got was typical society crap and broken people. So much Hollywood drama I wanted to puke!

While the new Lost in Space (glad its over) was kinda watchable, recently I've been streaming episodes of the Original Lost in Space and enjoying that greatly over the new one.

Now that I've watched all the Star Trek Discovery episodes to date, it looks like it might get interesting (unless they go stupid).



Ten years before Kirk, Spock, and the Enterprise, the USS Discovery discovers new worlds and lifeforms as one Starfleet officer learns to understand all things alien.

The plot is misleading. The episodes are now 1,000 years in the future but the characters and look of the technology isn't much different. Plus, how did so many original season characters survive 1,000 years?
The way I see it, this show focuses on the Goddess Michael Burnham. Unrealistic even for a Star Trek show.

I just unzipped the entire (new) Outer Limits show (1995-2001) that starts with Sandkings. Even after all these years and repeated watching I still find it good.



A modern revival of the classic science fiction horror anthology show The Outer Limits (1963). Episodes often have twist-endings and involve aliens. Sometimes, a story from one episode continues in a later episode.

So What are y'all watching/following these days?
Are you streaming, renting or buying?

Do you binge watch seasons or watch as released?

Yes, I watch TV shows a enjoy mystery, movies, and Comedy
