She-Ra Coming Soon!

The next season of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is right around the corner! That means we’ll get two seasons (or three, technically) in a single year! How exciting!

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is one of my favorite shows on TV…or, technically, Netflix. It’s well-written, well-plotted and the characters are all fascinating and fun. It’s possibly the best revival of an old cartoon. And the new season promises some actual story progression with some big changes!

Needless to say, I’m excited and can’t wait! The new episodes arrive on Nov. 5!

Rick and Morty is Coming Back!

I’m a big fan of Rick and Morty — but not that big of a fan. I’m not that guy. It’s a really well-written, fun, and funny show, and it’s coming back next month!

I’m also heavily invested in the ongoing conspiracy storyline. My theory: the evil Morty is Rick’s original Morty, who he left for dead at some point and then went off and found a new universe/Morty to live with. This explains why Beth was so surprised when Rick suddenly and randomly returned to her life.

The new season — or at least five episodes of the new season — return on Nov. 10.

She-Ra is Coming Back Already!

The fourth season of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power will arrive on Netflix on Nov. 5! That’s less than a month away! And it’s going to be a full 13 episode season, instead of the half-seasons we got with 2 and 3. I’m very excited!

Here’s a quick teaser, released at New York Comic Con.

Not too much to see yet, but there are some big changes in store! Glimmer is now queen. Catra co-leads the Horde. All sorts of fun is afoot! I can’t wait! I love this show! And you should definitely be watching, if you’re not already.

I Don’t Know If I’m Ready for the End of BoJack Horseman

BoJack Horseman is probably my favorite show on TV right now. It’s funny, it’s touching, it’s deep, it’s dramatic; there is nothing else like BoJack Horseman.

So I’m kind of worried that the next season will be its last!

I’m worried in that I don’t know if I’m ready for the show to be over. I don’t know if I’m ready for BoJack Horseman to say its final word about the life and fate of its protagonist. Plus it always really stinks when your favorite TV shows come to an end.

The first half of the final season arrives on Oct. 25. The second half arrives on Jan. 31.

There Are Few Things I Want More Than For Elsa to be Gay

World peace would be nice and all, but I want Disney to use their power and clout to make Elsa gay in Frozen 2. I’ve written about this before, but there’s a new Frozen 2 trailer that doesn’t contradict these hopes and dreams for the world.

I mean, come on. Let it happen. I fully respect the idea that Elsa doesn’t need a love interest. But everybody loves a good romance. And Elsa should be gay. I want Disney to make it happen. I want Disney to use their massive entertainment empire to stare back into the eyes of every bigot and religious nutjob out there and tell them: Let it go.

Also, magical flames in Frozen 2? Surely there’s an awesome fire-magic lady out there to partner up with Elsa’s ice-magic.

And surely we can note that the trailer is being intentionally vague about the origins of that magic fire and what lies in the enchanted forest. Love interests and romance are a big part of Disney movies, but none of the trailers so far even hint at such a thing for Elsa. So either Disney isn’t going to go down that road for arguably their most popular princess in years…or they’re keeping it a secret!

I’m just gonna hold on hope for awhile.
