I can't wait to leave here so that me and sheggz will find a house

-Bella.

Is it that the big brother naija reduces the IQ of the contestants or they just naturally pick dumb people?

A guy that is high on konji due to the enclosed space is who this girl wants to claim.

While the rest are busy fighting over the other pink haired clown.

And later they will cry that they have been served breakfast.

I gave it 1.2/10. Minus 0.8 for horrible ending of first episode. First episode of series ought to be most interesting and exciting.

It's bad. They should not bother renewing it.

The Sandman ......8/10

The show was top notch and a breath of fresh air, giving one something different when everything looks the same and formulaic in Hollywood these days. The Direction was top notch for the first 6 episodes. The dialogue was top class. The acting was great, all the cast members delivered their all. The cinematography and visuals was beautiful. Sound mixing was good as well.

Thumbs up has to be given to the casting director, especially for the Johanna Constantine, Lucifer, Dream, John Dee and Corinthian roles. Even Desire looks like a portrayal to watch out for.

I was initially doubtful of Gwendoline Christie being able to deliver a convincing performance for Lucifer but after remembering her portrayal in Game of Thrones I was less bothered and confident of her acting chops. After I finally watched the TV show and very familiar with the Lucifer character (as he's my fave DC character overall), I can say she delivered beautifully and embodied Lucy's demeanor to the tee.

Tom Sturridge as Dream/Morpheus was a role I'll say the dude was born for. Damn, epic performance and perfect voice acting as well. The demeanor, the movements, the reaction and the look. PREMIUM!!!

Johanna Constantine? My oh my, she played an altered John Constantine story arc really well. Performing John without me feeling they were pandering. She must be applauded. She brought elegance, beauty and dynamism to the show. Never knew I'd love her character this much. There's this aura she brings to the show and she was a scene stealer.

Boyd Holbrook was menacing and a great performer as the Corinthian. David Thewlis as John Dee was rock solid. Portrayed a misunderstood conflicted character really well. The dialogue between him and that black lady in the car was peak. Fvvk! The conversation about life I'm general was very relatable.
The writers na Odogwu. This is clearly a blueprint on how to heavily involve the original creator I'm your adaptation. It's clearly written Gaiman over it. Big ups to everyone involved in the show. They gave me something dynamic this year.

While the show felt like a football game of two different halves, it was a solid take on the Sandman universe and was a brilliant show. The first five or six episodes could be rated 9/10, while the later ones kinda dipped to a 7 and the shaky third act, it wasn't enough to spoil the entire story.

The only downturn I see for the show was the bar the first five episodes set in the first instance. It primed up expectations to the roof and the later LGBT content proved to 'force' a reaction from people's bias. This is what I feel is responsible for tge majority of low ratings and not something really cogent. While they showed some LGBT scenes, heterosexual scenes was included as well and didn't really feel forced.

Overall the weighted average is still above average and great.
I can barely see the "Wokeness" some people are crying about especially coming from a comic reader who understands the universe and the original characters. Asides the from changes to Lucifer which I still consider acceptable being that he is 'sexless'. Lucienne being changed female and black wasn't really much issue. Death as well being black didn't water down the experience as Howell Baptiste gave a convincing performance.



Picture below attached for people using Lucifer as an excuse. The original character look looks more like a female than even a male. Also the character design was modelled after David Bowie who is known for his LGBT beliefs/lifestyle. So claiming Wokeness now just cos it's the new fancy word is just lazy. Funny thing is Gwen even looks exactly like early Lucifer design.
Sandman comics /universe has been this way since the 80s.
Comic readers really have almost nothing to complain about this TV show.
Clearly this TV show was made for the fans. It's that obvious. wink

If I'm hyped for season 2? Fvvk yes, I am!!
And I look forward to how they progress the story going forward, the changes, the other stories they adapt as well as incoming new characters, most especially Delirium, Destiny and maybe Amenadiel.
I would love to see Michael Demiurgos too and maybe an Elaine Belloc reference. Wouldn't be bad if The Presence grace our screen

How can I like this a million times?? This is so good!!

Finally...
Someone that gave an honest review. I believe you and black spider are the two that actually read the comic and watched the series. An avid comic reader and one that has read the sandman comic knows the series did justice to the comic.

The rest are just following the bandwagon and shouting woke,woke,woke.

Yeah well truth is I'm very much aware of how the U.S use Hollywood to control the way people think, so, I'm not surprise.

Top Gun: Maverick generated that much money because it's been awhile people watch anything that bore any semblance to jet fighters and the better part, dogfight. I'm very sure many people will believe the F18 can actually defeat the Sukhoi SU35 because of this movie.

It's the same way people believe the U.S military is the number one in the world and the C.I.A is the number one spy agency all because of Hollywood.

Let's even ask ourselves, which war have the U.S military ever won? All they do is cause trouble, send in their military to cause more trouble, runaway with their rifles stuck between their legs and most important, make a Hollywood movie of it and make it look like they won and make heroes of the soldiers who fought the war.

13: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, Lone Survivor, The Outpost etc are all propaganda movie. Period.

Louder!!! Make them hear word. grin

The funny thing about the war the US choose to go into na small time nations with poor military startegy and equipment and later beat chest and claim BOSS! grin Upon that, na bloody nose them dey return with almost all the damn time.

Na WWII give them level after everybody don tire finish and US still fresh with military and economy.

Anyways, make better quality rip drop fess make I properly drag am if I no enjoy am. grin cheesy

smh...no one hates a show just cos it has a female lead

We hate shows that have poorly written characters as lead
It's not that hard to write female lead shows, but unfortunately most just use the character as an excuse to promote their feminism crap

You can't keep making flawless annoying characters and expect people to like it...

I have seen movies and shows with well written female leads that I thoroughly enjoyed
I won't waste my time on she-hulk cos I know it's trash even without watching
