Get down to B only because the use of "is" as "a series ...." is singular.

Am I right?

Killed D and E using my ear.

Killed A because of "that are."

Killed C because it was wordy.
NO EXCUSES

Came down to B;

1)with "all", should be closer to "things" than "Hollywood" so D abd E are out.
2) series..is inspiring should be singular A and C are out.

IMO: B

Please correct me if I am wrong.
