GOOD OMENS
we already talked about It in our review , but it's always nice to reaffirm how nice it is to Good Omens . A wonderful story available on Amazon Prime Video, taken from the novel of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett , which tells the story of an imminent apocalypse and the Antichrist a little bit different from the usual. We will look at everything through the eyes of the angelic Azraphel (Michael Sheen) and the demon Crowley (David Tennant), who should be rivals as belonging respectively to Heaven and Hell, but which in reality are united by a powerful friendship. Good Omens will show us how the forces of good may be the prey of feelings lower, like the vanity and the competition to be toxic, and how the demons might be, in the end, much more human of the angels. A series not to be missed!ROTTEN TOMATOES: 82 %

COMMUNITIES
the Community is the comedy that we do not deserve, but of which we needed. Jeff Winger, a lawyer with a license suspended, with the purpose of seducing the former political activist Britta Perry, organizes a fake study group of the Spanish to which she was invited to participate. However, Britta invites another student, Abed Nadir, who in turn invites four other members of the class in Spanish, Troy Barnes, Shirley Bennett, Annie Edison and Pierce Hawthorne, thus creating a real group of studies.Despite not having had the same effect on the Italian public, this sit-com has become one of the pillars of mass culture, especially because one of its central themes is pop culture, and pitted by the character of Abed through his quotes. The characters are driven by their comfort-zones, to face atypical situations within the Community College, dealing with the stereotypes of the society and then smontandoli one by one. As if that wasn't enough one of the episodes of the first season, written by the brothers Russo , was the one that pushed the production choose to shoot the film on the Avengers .

LOST
One of the series that contributed to the change of television . All those who have followed step-by-step have experienced what is known as the Lost Experience , a period made up of theories and speculations, where we all wondered what was that black smoke, or that symbol that we all remember, affezionandoci to the characters and staying with bated breath for their fate. It all starts with a plane crash: a group of survivors will find themselves having to work together to survive on a tropical island (apparently) desert, where the plane crashed. From here, everything will become more complicated.ROTTEN TOMATOES: 90 %

PREACHER
The dark preacher, Jesse Custer (played by Dominic Cooper ) and his ex-girlfriend, Tulip, and a vampire irish called Cassidy, embarks on a journey to find literally God. An interesting premise for a series that never stops giving surprises. Freely taken from the work the comics of Garth Ennis , Preacher unites the sacred and the profane as a few before (and after) him. A journey in the company of an antihero worthy of DC Comics , more and more shady than his half-sister Marvel.ROTTEN TOMATOES: 90 %

THE OFFICE US
it is Now a cliché: when in a series there is a british version and an american, I usually always prefer the first. This is not the case of The Office US, which shows to be at the height of its source of inspiration the English, if not even higher. The series between several gags about everyday life of employees of an office of a company that sells paper. It will be for the presence of the great Steve Carell , but The Office is a different series, amusing but often bitter and cynical, which shows the frustrations and foibles of the characters without too many frills. Recommended to all those who have only seen the british version with the equally talented Ricky Gervais and those who want to laugh much, to the limits of the excessive.ROTTEN TOMATOES: 89%

AMERICAN GODS
Lately the subject written by Neil Gaiman are the ones most loved by the producers. In the end, how he's wrong? American Gods tells the story of Shadow Moon, who is released from prison, after serving a sentence of three years for a robbery in a casino, with a few days in advance due to the sudden death of his beloved wife Laura, coming to miss in a car accident. After some strange visions, Shadow Moon, he meets a man who presents himself as Mr. Wednesday ( Ian McShane ) , who proves to be all too informed about its troubled past and present. The man offers to work for him as a body guard in exchange of a huge fee, and Shadow agrees to cooperate. But things take an unexpected turn.American Gods is a journey through the mythologies, where we will meet the past and present that we rob you of exactly how they will do with Shadow Moon. This is one of the most successful of Gaiman, where the atmosphere fantastic, and criticism of current american politics mingle dangerously.
The second season has not been appreciated by many, but it is certainly worth viewing to fully appreciate this work.
