For my second post of Monday Minute I decided to share with you all Top 5 New Series to be excited for for Winter 2016.
#1 The Shannara Chronicles (MTV) Based on the best-selling fantasy book series by Terry Brooks, "The Shannara Chronicles" follows heroes in the Four Lands as they embark on a quest to stop an evil Demon army from destroying the universe. Thousands of years after the fall of humankind, the world's fate rests on the shoulders of an unlikely trio: Elvin Princess Amberle, who dreams of a life outside of the palace walls; beautiful, wild and wily Human Rover Eretria, and half-elf Wil, who knows nothing of the great destiny that runs through his veins. - Google description |
I watch the first four episodes of The Shannara Chronicles so far as they were all made available on January 5th. I love the storyline so far, set in a very different future than the usual dystopian one we usually see, it features elves, warlocks, demons, which is something I always loved reading about. The fantasy world they live in is beautifully adapt on screen with lots of stunning landscapes and very bright colours! TV.com gives it a 8.7/10 and I give it a 9/10 so far!! Can't wait for the new episodes to air!! Who else loves this show so far?
#2 Shadowhunters (ABC Family) Shadowhunters is an American fantasy television series based on The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare in which Clary Fray learns that she is a Shadowhunter, a human-angel hybrid that hunts demons. After her mother is abducted by a rogue shadowhunter, Clary joins a band of Shadowhunters to save her mother and discovers powers she never knew she had. - Wikipedia |
I was very impatient to start watching Shadowhunters since I had love the movie City of Bones which is based on the same book, and also read the first book of the series. I like that they made it a series instead, giving them more creative liberty on the storyline and making it easier to extend since there are several books to cover anyway! I like the cast so far!! It was kinda use to the cast of the movies but these actors have already made a good impression on me! IMDb gives them 6.6/10 I give them 8/10. I need to see a bit more action before I make up my mind! What about you? Do you like the new Mortal Instruments TV adaptation?
#3 Magicians (Syfy) Quentin Coldwater, a grad student at Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy, has been fascinated by the magical fantasy world since he was young. But as he has gotten older, Quentin and his 20-something friends have discovered that the magical world they read about as children is not only real, but poses dangers to humanity. While studying at the secret upstate New York school, the friends struggle to cope with the aftermath of a catastrophe that befalls the institution. The fantasy series is based on a series of novels by Lev Grossman. - Google description |
Unfortunately I don't have a lot to tell you since the first episode won't air until January 25th, but the trailer is very promising, I can't wait for it to start airing so I can make up my mind!! Did you hear about the Magicians? Are you gonna watch it?
#4 Second Chances (FOX) The series follows the life of Jimmy Pritchard, a 75-year-old former King County, Washington sheriff who was morally corrupt and later disgraced and forced to retire. After he is killed in a robbery at his son's home, Pritchard is brought back to life in the improved body of a younger man by billionaire tech-genius twins Mary and Otto Goodwin. However, despite having a new life and a chance to relive his life and find a new purpose, the temptations that led to his career being tarnished continue to haunt him. - Wikipedia |
I really like this show so far!! Only one episode has aired, but I really enjoyed it! The premise sorta reminds me of the story of Frankenstein, bringing someone back from the dead and stuff. It looks very promising and I can't wait for the next episode to air!
IMDb gave it a 7.9/10 but I definitely think it deserves at lest 8.5/10! What do you think? Is the storyline interesting so far?

Blindspot (NBC) Blindspot focuses on a mysterious tattooed woman who has lost her memory and does not know her own identity. The FBI discovers that each tattoo contains a clue to a crime they will have to solve. - Wikipedia A beautiful woman, with no memories of her past, is found naked in Times Square with her body fully covered in intricate tattoos. Her discovery sets off a vast and complex mystery that immediately ignites the attention of the FBI, which begins to follow the road map on her body into a larger conspiracy of crime, while bringing her closer to discovering the truth about her identity. - NBC |
Ok I technically cheated on that one since it is not a new TV Show this season, but it's still in it's first season, it only has 10 aired episodes, so it is still pretty new! And it's not coming back to TV before February 29th, which gives you more than enough time to binge watch on the first half of the first season before it starts airing again, and I just really love this TV show so far! The prefect combination of freaky and strange, with a lot of plot twists, FBI investigations every episodes and lots of action!! The first 10 episode were extremely promising and I cannot wait for it to come back on air!! Did you watch it last season? Did you like it? IMDB gives it 7.8/10 but I definitely think it's worth 9/10!! I just love it!! And it kinda makes me wanna have tattoo even though hers are very freaky!
