More show revs on the wayyy!! Feel free to leave recommendations in the chat!
One Tree Hill
A classicc 2000's throwback. The first four seasons is what I would describe as a perfect 2000s fall-time watch. The show stars two step-brothers growing up in totally different households. Starting off as rivals but later growing closer to each other as they work together in their schools basketball team. As senior year approaches, its their final shot at the state's championship alongside their coach who is about to retire after more than 18 years.
I absolutely enjoyed this show due to the fact that there was always something going on. Whether it be a life-or-death situation or just simple drama, there always seemed to be some sort of engaging arc taking place keeping your perfectly tuned in.
Though, I would say the show was only super good until season four. The amount of character build-ups, action and general lore up until the end of the fourth season was immaculate. The season ended off with all four heading off into different chapters of their lives at the very place it all started. Although I loved the following seasons, I think season four would've been the perfect ending!
P.S. Nathan Scott is SO the man.
Outer Banks
One of the most interesting shows on Netflix which in my opinion is 100% worth its hype. In a generation where teenage shows with engaging plots are extremely hard to find or to keep up with, obx is just one of those shows that keeps you tuned in.
Without spoiling or going into too much detail, the main idea and plot of the show starts around a group of four 16 year olds, out to finish the hunt of the gold lost in the HMS Royal Merchant. However, from the very beginning, its always been kooks and pouges, the very thing which divides the island, disturbing its peace.
The one thing which primary stood out to me about this show was the amount of emotional connection each character had and how much was shown about their situations as individuals with their families. All of the characters in the main group went through an insane amount of emotional torture. The one thing however which was really refreshing to see, was the loyalty and dedication from the pouges, the one thing which really separated them from everyone else. Doesn't matter the situation you're in, you'd never get left behind.
Overall one of the best shows I've generally ever watched and would one million percent recommenced. #p4l
What do you think makes a "deep" and "complex" character?
ReplyDeleteDo they need to suffer and be tested, or are there multiple ways to portray character development in shows?
A lot of shows just throw their main characters into emotional turmoil, and out pops a hardened and mature person, but I think that's just lazy writing.
Any show that finds unique and novel ways to show complexity in a character instantly hooks me in.
I loveeee One Tree Hilllll ! Me and my sister watched it like 8 times LOLL
