A "spoiler free" review since you aren't much bothered by them (this was what got me interested in it too)
|| > I really enjoyed this book. It's definitely heavily inspired by Agatha Christie with the tropes of the guests trapped in a mansion due to a storm and the classic Golden Age inspired detective. However, it throws a variety of fantasy things into the mix. My one criticism would be that the mystery aspect wasn't as clever as the best of Christie's novels, but that's about it. I inhaled the book otherwise. I loved the zany characters that almost seemed out of something like Knives Out, and the humor was actually a welcome surprise. At the same time, the world feels mysterious and haunting, with plenty of hints towards all the different monsters infecting the world. I copied a review that compared it to Soulsborne, and I can see that claim due to the Victorian setting and some sections that almost veer into horror. A really effective mix of elements propped up with a strong and distinctive voice, all while being extremely efficient. ||

I've been watching a lot of One Piece live action review/impressions videos out of boredom, and lately the one thing I seen in common with newcomers reviewing it is that they say it's a breath of fresh air. A series defies what 'garbage' Hollywoods puts out for series and refreshing for how whimsical, heartfelt & emotional it can get, contrast to how dark other Western series can be. That's what they say commonly in those reviews. I heard it enough times to wonder if that's really actually the case. Is it actually the case, I don't keep up with Western series that much.

Breathless was the easiest to digest for me

Vivre Sa Vie is also a good movie

Doctor who Tales of the tardis ||Here it says Jo Grant has a message for Clyde (who was in the Sarah Jane Adventures), this is definitely setting up some plotline to happen somewhere, so I feel like this series will definitely have more seasons and a flexible schedule if the iPlayer deal has enough audience, meaning we could even have seasons multiple times per year.

@unkempt agate just curious, is Campaign 2 considered the most popular? If so, why? 
unkempt agate
at the very moment I'd say its the most popular because of the new one-shot craze, and generally its very popular because it's the longest and just has a very beloved crew of characters
Idk if its still more popular than VM with the animated show out now tho
