* TWD - 1) What did you think about the finale as a follow-up to the previous episode's crazy ending 2) What did you think of the cliffhanger? 3) Did you like the snow aspect and do you hope it continues in S10? 4) What are your thoughts on how Negan's character has been used this season, and his actions in the finale? How do you feel about him moving forward? 5) Thoughts on Ezekiel's treatment toward Daryl, and Carzekiel breaking up at the end? 6) Do you think the finale was a good ending to the season as a whole? And what did you make of Angela Kang's first full season of TWD as showrunner :) * Vikings - 1) What did you think of the last confrontation between Ragnar and Rollo and how they left that? 2) What are your thoughts on the choice to have a big 9 year timeskip? Do you think they should have explored more of the aftermath or do you think 4x10 wrapped up enough of the story before moving on? 3) How are you liking Ragnar's sons all grown up and their actors? Are you enjoying the actors so far? (Also, personally, I keep thinking Ubbe is the spitting image of Ragnar from S1) 4) Do you like how Bjorn and Floki have grown up and seem to be collaborating? And what did you make of Ragnar's goodbye? 5) Thoughts on Ragnar's state of mind at the moment? Especially since he tried to hang himself * Haunting of Hill House - 1) What did you think of the series ending on a positive (all things considered) note? I thought it was quite unique for a horror show 2) Did you like how each character was resolved by the end? Or were there any moments that you felt deserved more development? 3) Thoughts on the characters in general, and how the series was structured around specific character-focused episodes, and how the writing of the characters took priority over the traditional 'horror' elements one would expect 4) Though on that note, knowing you're a fan, did you enjoy the series as a horror? You did seem to handle that jumpscare in episode 8 better than most haha. And also, just for fun, idk if you know about the ghosts that're sprinkled throughout the series, hidden in the background or out of focus etc. I wonder if you caught any of them while watching/editing, or have gone back to catch them now you've finished lol * As an aside, and you don't have to ofc, but was just curious if you might want to sum up quickly your thoughts on Deadpool 2, since we unfortunately lost the review part of your reaction?

1) Given that you absolutely love Barbara and Ian’s characters from Classic Who, are there any dimensions to how their characters were written and acted that you wish Modern Who did better or would incorporate? 2) Having seen more of Susan’s character, do you feel Modern Who should bring her back? Maybe as a way of doing her character justice? One of the great tragedies of the show in my opinion is that Susan had so much potential and the writers used so little of it. That scene of Ten and Madame de Pompadour reading each other’s minds? The Sensorites sat that up with Susan.

Hi Jess, Sorry for not asking about the shows, I just had a question about something else. I remember a while ago you did some music reactions, and you used to have a vote for a patreon choice reaction each month. Do you have any plans to bring these back? I ask simply because I have noticed alot of reactions to my favourite band recently and thought it would be great to see my favourite reactor watching my favourite band (although judging by your previous music reactions they may not be your cup of tea).

Hi Jess - only really wanted to ask about DW. Now you've got the to the end of the first season, how are you enjoying it given the totally different pacing and style. I'm sure that the special effects are a thing - but I'm thinking more of the way it's written as it's a show that was designed to be watched as a serial, and no-one ever expected it to be watched in the way that we watch TV now. Are you finding them more enjoyable than not, or are you strugling with the amount of 'filler'?

I am just going to ask questions about shows I watch that do not have any questions for them yet. For The Punisher I know at first your were pretty sold on the fact that Jigsaw did have his memory. If I missed it somewhere I am sorry but I am guessing you now believe that he does not and my question is do you like that better or worse as far as the story goes. I know you talked about it being an interesting possibility early on but if you could expand on it. For Game of Thrones. So many things but I will mostly just ask you to kind of go over your thoughts on 8x3 unless you maybe make a YouTube video doing that. I did like it (11/10 for production of it). I felt it had some flaws that made me not love it. My biggest complaint was that so many named characters were surrounded so many times and somehow survived (and many times off screen). I know the ending is loved by some and not others, I am in the loved it camp.
