Another Look at Creature Commandos
New York City Comic-Con was this past week end and we sadly didn’t get many cool new trailers! We know that Daredevil: Born Again will come out in March, but they haven’t publicly released the trailer! Shame! One trailer we did get was a new look at the Creature Commandos cartoon from James Gunn and DC! So that’s exciting enough.
I think this show looks great. I love the work of James Gunn, loved his Suicide Squad, loved his Peacemaker, so I’m fully on board for this zany cartoon that will — possibly — bridge all these shows and movies? It’s definitely kicking off the new DCU, so there’s that. But until then, it’s just gonna be a zany cartoon, and I’m down for that as well!
Creature Commandos comes to MAX on Dec. 5.

Some New Wallace & Gromit on This Lovely Thursday
There’s a new Wallace & Gromit movie coming early next year! It’s been nearly 20 years since the last one, so huzzahs all around! Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl is coming to Netflix!
Looks fun to me! And looks like a nice way to start this lovely Thursday. Why is it lovely? I don’t know. It just is. And a little lazy. So let us revel and just cherish in a new trailer for Wallace & Gromit stuff. Looks funny. Looks same as always. Looks like exactly what we want.
Vengeance Most Fowl comes to Netflix on Jan. 3.

TV Trailer Tuesday!
A good question exists of why I share which trailers I do. Why some trailers but not all trailers? The answers is that I really just share trailers of projects that interest me. I’ve loved watching trailers since the days of Coming Attractions on the E! Network when I was a kid. Here are some trailers I’ve been sitting on over the past few days and am just dropping them now for funsies!
First up is the trailer for the fifth and final season of Star Trek: Lower Decks! I love this show. It’s my Star Trek. And it’s a damn shame this is the final season. We need so much more! This season looks great.
Can’t wait to watch. Love the Beckett/Jennifer stuff. Have no idea what else might happen. Anything could happen! I hope they go huge for the final season!
The last season of Lower Decks comes to Paramount+ starting Oct. 24.
Next up is the new Netflix cartoon Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft. This started last Thursday, but I haven’t watched it yet. I’ll get around to it one of these days.
Looks pretty straight forward to me. Lara Croft should be an easy character to adapt, so it’s weird that the movie franchise didn’t really take off. Hopefully this cartoon can reveal how it’s easy and awesome to make a show about a badass exploration hero exploring tombs and fighting bad guys and monsters.
Then we’ve got a new show called Hysteria, which looks pretty neat.
Looks like a fun premise, lots of cheeky humor and I think I’ll definitely try to find a watch somewhere along the way. Or maybe it’ll be one of those shows that comes and goes and nobody remembers it even existed. Who can tell? I’ll probably give it aw atch.
Hysteria comes to Peacock on Oct. 18, so at the end of this week.
Lastly is the first trailer for the second season of Silo on AppleTV+. DO NOT WATCH THIS TRAILER unless you’ve already seen season 1, because it’s full of SPOILERS.
Looks great to me! I really enjoyed the first season, and I can’t wait to see where they go with season 2. This trailer gives us some pretty fun hints and I can’t wait to see them play out!
Silo season 2 comes to AppleTV+ on Nov. 15.

The Velma Halloween Special is Real and It’s Here
As one of the only people on the internet who legitimately enjoys the TV show Velma, I was excited to find out that the Halloween special was real. This was a single rumor months ago and then I never heard anything else, to the point that I thought it wasn’t real and wouldn’t happen.
But then, surprise! They released a trailer at the start of the month to no fanfare, announcing the show would come out on Oct. 3! So I watched it this weekend and enjoyed it.
Oh also, this trailer has all sorts of spoilers for the ending of season 2.
I like Velma. It’s a fun show and a great Scooby Doo prequel story. It’s crass and funny and has good mysteries. Don’t listen to the haters and watch it for yourself. I never knew people were so sacred about Scooby Doo, which has had more alternate takes than the Ninja Turtles.
Anyway, the Halloween special is now on Max for everyone to watch! And let’s hope we get a season 3!

Who Knew There Were So Many Beetlejuices?
This Is Animated is back and they’ve done Beetlejuice! And where did they find enough Beetlejuices to animate? From stage productions around the world! That’s dedication to one’s bit, I tells ya.
I used to watch the Beetlejuice cartoon when I was a kid and it was a ton of fun! So this bit takes me back. I haven’t gone to see the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice movie sequel, though, because I just don’t care. I’ve only ever been mildly entertained by the original film, and I keep hearing bad things about this sequel. So I think I’m just going to let it pass me by.
And, as always, the next Tell It Animated should be about Robin! Though judging by upcoming movies…he might do one about Kraven, if he can find enough. And Sam Wilson has a new Captain America movie early next year. There have been plenty of Falcons and Captain Americas to draw from!
