Heres How To Fix Halo The Series

Let’s face it, Halo The Series was a disappointment. From the portrayal of Master Chief, Kwan, the lack of a Covenant threat, to many other points. Now the question is, how would you fix the series if you were in charge? Well, Jared has some suggestions in this week’s Halo Wednesdays. He outlines two main ways to reboot the show and make it better if the studio wants and elseworlds story or an in-continuity tale.

#MasterCheeks: What Did I Just Watch (Rant)?! | Halo Episode 8: Allegiance Review

This week, Jared rants about how bad episode 8 of the Halo series was. Like wow; Paramount Plus really did not look at the lore. Literally, no one acted in character this entire episode. This episode went from bad, to worse, to kinda cool (the spartan fight), to worse again. At this point, is cancelation still an option if Season 2 is like this?

Master Chief Learns The Truth | Halo Episode 6: Solace Review

This week, Jared begrudgingly reviews Halo Episode 7: Inheritance aka, the Kwan episode. We all knew it would happen eventually. He discusses the highs, the many lows, the most badass action moments, and the interesting Halo references made in the episodes redeeming action moments.
Let’s be clear. I still don’t think the show is terrible. It just needs more Chief, action, and a threat from the Covenant. It so far has lacked in those three points. It’s also needs less Kwan (she is dragging the show down). If the show can accomplish these four recommendations, Season 2 can be greatly aided (I do believe they will take respectful criticism to heart). So stay civil and respectful in the discourse around this show.

This series is building to some pretty awesome stories and we will be here to provide positivity in the discourse surrounding this show.

#HaloTheSeries Is Good (Change My Mind)

This video, Jared argues that #HaloTheSeries, the series maligned by fans, is in fact, really good, and closer to the lore than one would think. He brings up the action, visuals, the characterizations of Master Chief, Halsey, Captain Keyes, etc and how these in fact create a compelling story. Also, Jared addresses how past beloved series such as #FowardUntoDawn featured little action until the end and then featured more action.
We hope we have at least inspired you to give the show another chance, as it has the potential to make Halo more mainstream, thus expanding the franchise.
