the Defenders: I like Danny the Well-Intentioned Dumbass here better than Smug Ass or Self-Righteous Ass in his own series. Several good fight sequences and some fight sequences that might have been good if they were in better lighting so I could follow them. And the group interactions between both the leads and the their supporting characters was good. Plus Sigourney Weaver and Scott Glen are always great.
Comrade Detective: I found out this was a recently made satire and NOT a recovered bit of 80s era Romanian state media television. Which moved it from a bonkers yet unintentionally brilliant piece of period propaganda to a pretty good satire of the buddy cop genre with amusing political comedy. Basically when I thought it was "real" I would have ranked it an unintentional 5/5, but finding out it was "fake" moves it to an intentional 3.5/5.
