Of relevance in July was the finale of the second season of 'The Sandman': some were disappointed, others liked it, but we are talking about Neil Gaiman and so there is no question. While incredibly "Untamed" the miniseries set in the wild scenery of Yosemite is among the most viewed titles in the history of Netflix. On the other hand, only positive reception for the detective series "Ballard", available on Prime Video, proving that July is a month in which judgement is lacking. Spoiler: August will be even worse. Happy viewing.
Wednesday - Season 2 - 6 August
Jenna Ortega returns to be Wednesday Addams. Everyone expects a new ballet, the one from the first season went viral and contributed to the success of the first season. Nothing mind-blowing eh but it all works. And then behind as director is Tim Burton. You can't see his hand much but it's there. (Netflix).
The Walking Dead: Dead City - Season 2 - 4 August
By now, between spin-offs and prequels, there is not much to understand about the most popular zombie series ever. We find Maggie and Negan, in Manhattan, together to save Hershel, Maggie's son. Now the story matters little to me. Only the protagonists. And the zombies who are increasingly in the background. (Sky and Now.tv)
Chief of War - Mini Series - 1 August
