Paul's Reviews
TV Series and Some Movies That We Have Streamed

Home -> TV & Movie Reviews

Since I retired I've streamed a lot of shows in a corner of my monitor while working on my computer. And of course during the pandemic that only increased. After a while the less memorable ones start to blur together, so I started keeping a list of the ones I'd watched. Then that list turned into longer reviews. Here are some of my comments about the best and worst.

Note: Some shows may no longer be available on the service we saw them on. If not, search here.

Great photography in locations around the world is featured as you follow 8 people that become linked together by being able to share all of their senses telepathically. Filmed in the USA, Germany, England, India, Korea, Argentina, Kenya and Iceland. Sense8 has stunning visuals as suggested by the opening. Imagine being able to hear, see, feel, taste, and smell what someone else is experiencing. At first, this sharing happens randomly and for only a few seconds and the characters struggle to understand what is happening. With the ability to hear what someone else is hearing comes the ability to speak to each other and understand languages the others know. And eventually to know physical skills that other's know. OK, some big leaps are required to believe these abilities, but once you buy into that, the drama and thriller aspects of the show kick in. Very diverse set of characters and interactions between them, so it may not be to everyone's taste. Of course, there is an organization that wants to find and kill them. But also a "sensate" from another cluster that helps them (perhaps). Each of the characters has problems in their lives to deal with. But they find they can help each other face them in unexpected ways. Two full seasons before being canceled (partly due to the high cost of filming in all those locations). But a 2.5-hour wrap-up show was released in 2018 due to fan outrage to wrap all the story threads.
