Quite frankly, the strongest episode of this season. Could have been more crisp with the writing. The whole thing with Butcher is a bit more concerning as it is badly written. The Boys aren't doing any better from last season. I wish the plot develops more. It's quite hard to keep watching this season as it's just doing nothing to satisfy the initial seasons. The frenchie plot seems to be abruptly cut - the butcher plot is good, convincing - I wish soldier boy comes back, he was entertaining. I don't know how it did. The writing has dipped way more than the expectations. I am being way generous with the ratings, but, writing team. Please get it better. We need more of The Boys.

"Only Murders in the Building" swiftly captures attention with its mix of comedic detective thrills. The show's play between mystery and humor hooked me from the start and kept me engaged throughout. Initially drawn in by the first season's opening episode, I found myself not compelled to return to the series after the pilot. This could be because of the low emotional connect.

Although the notable strength of this series lies in its pacing, ensuring there are no dull moments. However, this brisk rhythm sometimes hinders the development of emotional connections with the characters as discussed earlier. There was an attempt in the latest season to address this shortfall but it slightly altered the thrill factor, affecting the gradual buildup that some viewers appreciated less, but it didn't affect me. I found it good enough.

The writers faced with a challenge: striking a balance between emotional resonance and a fast-paced narrative. Finding this in a balance is tricky. Ultimately, the series leans more towards the thrilling detective elements, delivering a well-wrapped mystery bundle.

"Only Murders in the Building" excels as a multifaceted production, blending thriller, comedy, detective work, and drama. Its broad appeal resonates across various audiences, marking it as a must-watch. I just want more of it. Keep it going.

RECOMMENDED.

Barry, a black comedy crime drama, wraps up with a stunning finale that is as unpredictable as it is chaotic, sprinkled with a healthy dose of humor.

While I feel that the plot sometimes reminded me of A History of Violence and Breaking Bad, it didn't hinder my viewing experience.

Despite the murmurs of negativity surrounding the final season, I believe it was a fitting conclusion that didn't end up being a rushed storytelling. The execution was spot-on, even though I initially questioned the necessity of the time jump, which, as it turns out, was both acceptable and crucial for breaking the monotony of the storyline + the payoff in the climax.

Bill Hader's directorial prowess in the last season is nothing short of amazing, complementing his stellar performance. Every character's portrayal is splendid, and their arcs are extremely defined. This combination of exceptional direction and performances cements Barry as one of the best crime dramas in the recent timws.

Rarely do series leave me in awe, but Barry has managed to bring that response multiple times. For enthusiasts of black comedy, action, and drama, I wholeheartedly recommend it. This is a must-watch.
