Completed the show for the first time.

I loved the show. The set design, the vfx, the prosthetics and the acting everything was top notch. I personally loved s1-3 . For me they are absolute perfection. For me the first half of S4 was extremely rough but s4e15 made it absolutely worth it. The hug and the kiss just made me cry a bit. S5 was unique and I also really liked it. The finale was absolute perfection. A perfect mix of satisfaction and emotions.

John noble really killed as walter bishop. I just loved how much he was able to keep me interested in his character all through out the show. Anna torv was phenomenal. Seeing her it felt truly as i was watching olivia and not anna torv. Her act is the perfect example of restrained acting. Absolutely loved how they utilised her acting skills in s2-4. Joshua was great and his acting at moments really touched me

Astrid as a character was just so subtle yet so substantial. The way show doesn't seem careless while working on even the science fiction portion was just so amazing. The show was a perfect mix of emotions romance and thriller also horror. Loved the show. I won't call it completely perfect due to first half of S4 but it still was an amazing underrated show.

Finished the show for the first time

First of all loved the show. I was a bit sceptical about the first season but the ending of the first season just hooked me. Season 2 was amazing, the slow journey of stevie and David becoming friends was just so refreshing. I really loved that the arc of stevie liking david romantically wasn't stretched. S3 and S4 were also at the same wavelength as season 2. There was slow and gradual character growth which I loved. I felt the show was actually extremely funny. The one liners were amazing. I also realised how most of the one liners used in the show were not even a little bit offensive. The entire comedy is so smartly written.

Moira is genuinely one of the funniest television characters ever. I loved Katherine o hara's performance very much.

I also loved how the show portrayed alexis. Rather than showing her to be a typical tv classist. She is genuinely shown to be very sweet. Yeah a bit dumb at the beginning but definitely her character growth was the most noticeable. I liked her and ted together but I feel that their relationship was a bit underdeveloped. It's just my opinion. I mean their breakup seamed reasonable but the the episode 8 of season 6 still made me very emotional and I felt their story could have been explored much better in season 5.

Stevie was genuinely a very strong character. She maintains that confused and directionless persona almost during the entire show but her character development was very great. Rather than showing a straight journey for her. I loved how her journey was crafted.

Her and David's friendship was so pure and genuinely sweet.

About david. I really found him funny. But i felt his entire arc was just a bit undercooked. I don't dislike him or smth. But he is not my favourite. Patrick and David were so cute together. And I loved how positive their entire relationship was. I felt that david was the first one to adapt the situation in the town better than anybody  in the family. That gave him a good headatrt that's why I felt his arc was uneven. But still he has some of the best one liners and sass in the show.

Johnny also has a good development. Like out of all the roses he from the start was the most mature one and he maintains that part throughout the show. He grows back from the situation gradually. He genuinely has some most comforting scenes.

About the side characters. All of them were funny. Not much to dislike. Roland initially never clicked with me but I just started liking him. Jocelyn was always pretty likeable character. Even a character like mutt was used efficiently for showing alexis's growth.

Annie Murphy and Katherine o hara were the two actors who impressed me the most. Especially Katherine o hara. God she had the best moments in the show out of anyone.

One other think that I liked was how efficiently most of the arcs were handled in direction. The arcs never felt stretched at any point. They gave every arc the time it deserved.

I loved the show but I won't call it perfect, it has some down moments but it's almost perfection. It's definitely a comfort show. It has very funny moments and also some great highs. Personally one of the only rare shows that went on to become better as the seasons progressed. It's a very comforting and a beautiful show in a unique way.

I just feel very sad that Katherine is just not here anymore. The show is her legacy and she would be missed forever.

Personally liked gemma and her back story.

After finishing both the seasons recently. Helly and Helena were the most intriguing characters for me. Britt lower's performance was just so good that even I was feeling confused whether to hate her or just be happy seeing her face.

But when I came to reddit i realised people didn't really care for gemma as a character but i personally did.

Maybe it was because I cared for outie mark and innie equally. Gemma in the finale really made me feel the evil inside lumon like nobody else. The episode dedicated to her and mark was a mixture of both of their perspectives but i felt we mainly see it from Mark's perspective as she was portrayed as a perfect woman. There is a scene of mark being rude to her which I felt was guilt deep down in the heart of mark. Never really connected with her character in season 1 except for when she turns back and ask milchick. That moment happens two times in both seasons and both time I made me feel sad for her.

I am actually pretty excited for her character in season 3 as we would get to see it in its full range for the first time.

She will feel initially betrayed by mark and would think that he remarried.

Her and helena's rivalry or fight is going to be very interesting to see.

I really felt the screenplay in her and Mark's special episode was just messed up. It didn't give justice to their story .

I really didn't like the finale

I recently finished the show and I am personally not the biggest fan of open to interpretation endings. I know that sarah will fall in love with chuck again after the kiss. But for me the sad thing was the entirety of 5 seasons of character development on sarah going into vain. It felt like the ending just was not giving. Most of the characters got ending and closure except for chuck and sarah. The show revolved around those two and season 5 felt like it tried to forcefully break them. Constantly it tried to do that. And in ep 11-13 chuck had a few chances to get her memory back but he just couldn't. I really felt those episodes created tension but the show really didn't require a bittersweet ending. Show had a good journey with character growth. And by removing Sarah's journey in the end it just pinches in the heart. It was heartbreaking. Wish there would have been a definite closure rather than an open ending.

House not having any sibling was such a missed opportunity.

God I was thinking how much funny banter scenes we would have gotten if house would have had any sibling especially an older sister. House's family is not discussed very often in the show but having a sibling could have actually made things a bit interesting.

S07E01

I was never the biggest fan of cuddy and house's relationship but in the first episode the moment when cuddy starts undressing house and when she tries to remove his pants. Hugh laurie's expression there of resistance and shame was one of the best moments in the show. It I don't why but just made me emotional.

I will never forgive david shore for handling their relationship in such a bad way.

For the first time in many seasons house felt cared and not miserable. Cuddy was the bad one in the relationship. It felt like she never wanted it to work . House was even willing to change but she just made him comfortable with himself.

She acted as a big hypocrite in s07.

House is no saint but cuddy made him feel love and in a sense abandoned him.

That moment still is one of the most special moments in the show which for the first showed house's vulnerability m

Sardhar udham deserves more love.

I have rewatched sardar udham multiple times and everytime I watch it I feel the same emotions again. Seeing such an in-depth movie by hindi cinema was a surprise to me at the time. Sujeet Sircar and vicky kaushal both peaked in the movie. In my opinion this is the best bollywood biopic and one of the greatest movies regarding India's freedom struggle.

I loved how it didn't try to impose the idea of patriotism on the viewers. It tried to explore the misery caused by British. Many movies in context of freedom struggle forget this part and try to impose the idea .

Sardar udham explores the mind of young revolutionaries in such a beautiful manner which is hard to explain.

Amol parasher as bhagat singh was so good , never saw this casting coming but it was extremely well casted role.

Every supporting actor surprised me.

This film deserved an oscar in all contexts. It captures pain and turmoil in such a way that by the end you just want to root for udham in every way.

It captures so many not so popular revolutionaries and their ways of contributing in indias freedom.

And vicky kaushal man Uff..

What an extraordinary performance. Vicky has been my favourite actor in bollywood for a long time. During chhava he was trolled by a sect saying that he is not that good of an actor. But whenever this debate will come sardar udham will be remebered as a hallmark of acting.

Sadly this film wasn't even officially sent to oscars by India.

In my opinion this was one of the biggest misses in oscars by indian film committee.

Even indian audience has ignored this masterpiece for a long time.

This film increased my love for sujeet Sircar even more .

A true masterpiece in all departments whether it was casting, cinematography, direction, writing , screenplay or acting.

Name an overhated bollywood film in your opinion.

Mine is bawaal. It's just extremely overhated for silly reasons . I agree that it should have handled the holocaust issue much better but still metaphorically it was a great try. Varun was great, jhanvi surprisingly was well suited for the role. Humour was good , even the romantic plot was built nicely. Amazing album and visuals too.
