Funny crime series
A cool lighthearted for the most part Drama series. Quite funny and with a good mix of action. The cast make the show and have great chemistry. Cobie Smulders, Maria Hill in the Avengers films, is a great lead character. She becomes a private eye in Portland after hitting rock bottom. Often getting in to danger or trouble with the police but using her military skills to solve her cases. Her clapped out car often choosing a suitable tune for the current scene with the broken player. A good mix of humour, action, good characters and interesting cases make it a fun series. Roll on season 2.

Thor The Comedy
Another fun and very lighthearted Thor film. There are some good action scenes and good to see Natalie Portman as Mighty Thor. Christian Bale does well in his role and steals all his scenes. It is funny with the typical humour of Guardians of the Galaxy and the last Thor film.
Unfortunately it just tries to be funny constantly, almost every scene and some of it just becomes a bit silly. Making it more of a comedy than a Superhero film. Still enjoyable but needs a better balance like Ragnarok to hit the mark.

How trauma can be overcome through determination
David Copperfield is written in the perspective of him narrating his experiences as a child, in which his stepfather and sister treat him cruelly, eventually sending him away to a boarding school. Similar to Cinderella, his mother dies leaving him neglected by his family, hence he begins his search for his father’s sister, Miss Betsey Trotwood.

His life consists of moving from one place to another, literally walking the length of England, much like Oliver Twist, attempting to find a place in the world. Dickens', as in his other works, explores how hardships can force a child to become independent and successful. It's terribly sad once again, so you'll need something lighthearted afterwards.

Storyline
I absolutely love medical dramas so this show immediately interested me. The cast was amazing and portrayed their characters very well. One of the main characters, Conrad, is a very charming but arrogant doctor that is also very caring underneath his ego. You can't help but to love his character. The interactions between the doctors and patients are believable and add to the overall tone of the show. The show has the perfect balance of drama, intensity and comedy to keep it lighthearted. It is a very enjoyable show to watch. If medical dramas are your thing or if you just like a little bit of suspense with a dab of romance underneath then this might definitely be the show for you.
