A plane crashes in the Alaskan wilds, and passengers struggle to survive through the cold and wolves.
Definitely not bad.

An old retired cop is reborn into a younger, stronger, version of himself, and fights crime.
Seems fairly good, though I’d bet it would be bland without the pretty girl.

Stories of people who regard augmenting their bodies as a way of life, whether for artistic reasons or out of pure vanity.
A movie about people who feel so trapped in their body they desperately want to control it. A community that’s basically a hugbox that shackles them together for encouragement.

A dude begins his career as a night manager for some place somewhere but gets used by British intelligence to act against an arms dealer.
Fairly decent, but I suspect it’s only because this is another show with a British accent being thrown around carelessly.

A man attains mystical powers originally for selfish reasons, but they taint with a life fraught with danger and demons.
Not a bad show, but the lead character’s personality isn’t attracting, and there’s the old celestial stick-up-the-ass personality in another. The lead female is hot. Hotty hot hot.
This was cancelled after one season. Back in the 90s this show would have done well, but I’m guessing this genre has alternately been well-poisoned or saturated. This show has too much it has to be better than to catch enough attention to survive. I think that it’s magic-fantasy was competing with an extraordinarily-strong superhero-fantasy genre.

- More-or-less based on Constantine – (2005 movie)

A black man is black and something something racism white men are bad but that’s totally not racist.
Oh god this is so bad. I gave this more than a half an hour and I was bounced between being insulted, offended, angered and bored.

A spy does spy stuff, drinks, hits on women and makes a jackass of himself while being surprisingly competent.
A fun, light, series which has a whole lot of laugh-out-loud moments.

Though I’ve seen it all, I didn’t begin taking notes until later on.
Noted here, just so I don’t accidentally see it.

A man hears voices, kills people, and stuff.
I saw bits and pieces, including some pretty long bits. I didn’t like any of it. This was one of those career enders .. but it somehow didn’t murder his career.

Something about American yokles and bad people and meth and stuff.
I didn’t watch much of it. I caught a bit here and there. It was too dark. Dim, and boring.
It’s just being listed here so I don’t accidentally watch it.

Some bullshit about a woman who has issues with being possessed.
I saw bits and pieces of it, and instantly hated it. It’s being noted so I can definitely never see it.
