Let’s Take Another New Look at the Wild New Season of Doctor Who!
The next season of Doctor Who is promising to be a wild one. New Doctor! Returning showrunner! Something of a fresh start, now on Disney+, with Disney money backing all of the special effects! It’s gonna be so much fun, so let’s look at another trailer they released over the weekend.
This all looks good to me. There’s so much going on in this trailer, so much zaniness, and I think that’s for the best. This is gonna be a season of fun and adventure, which we all love! There are some dramatic bits too, and we’ll see how new Doctor Ncuti Gatwa handles the dramatic stuff.
Anyway, it looks like fun! The new season kicks off on May 10.

TV Trailer Tuesday
This is the most stubborn cold I think I’ve ever had! It just won’t leave my head! I just want my brain back! Thankfully, I can take things a bit easier on this Tuesday, and just share some TV trailers that came around in the past week! I love trailers and I love easy Tuesdays.
First up is a big trailer for the new season of Doctor Who, with the new Doctor.
Looks alright to me! I liked the guy well enough in that Christmas special we saw, so I’m definitely down for watching the new season. I still haven’t watched Jodie Whittaker’s final season and specials. But this is supposed to be a fresh start, and I’m down with that, so we’ll see how it goes!
The new season is coming to Disney+ starting on May 10.
Next up is a great trailer for The Penguin TV show!
That was a great trailer! Granted, it’s basically just a trailer for a crime drama, then breaks that immersion when it reveals the title to be “The Penguin” at the end. Heh. Not very much, or anything at all, in this trailer makes one think Batman vs. Penguin. So I guess we’ll see. I’m all for a new, gritty crime drama, which maybe Batman hiding in the wings? We’ll see!
The Penguin comes to Max in the fall.

I Like the Look of The Acolyte
We got our first trailer the other day for The Acolyte, the next Star Wars TV show, and this one promises to be very different from the rest. The Acolyte will take place in the High Republic era, which is actually very exciting to me. I only ever read the first High Republic novel, so I’m not very vested in that world, but just the idea of it holds a lot of promise, I think.
The trailer looks good. So far, The Acolyte looks like it’s going to be an Andor-style world/story, but now with Jedi and lightsabers. That may just be trailer trickery. Maybe somebody told the trailer-maker to make it look more like Andor, the show everybody loves. But if I’m right, that would be awesome! A series story with a real message, and then with Jedi and lightsabers, would be a good show.
The High Republic era has a lot of promise. Let us see a world where Jedi are at the top of their game. Let’s see all those yellow lightsabers in regular circulation! I’m definitely interested in this one.
The Acolyte premieres on Disney+ in June.

Fallout Trailer Friday
We got a new trailer yesterday for the upcoming Fallout TV show, and I like this trailer a lot better than the first one. This trailer really shows off the world and plot of Fallout, from the Vault Dweller stuff to the Brotherhood of Steel to so much more. This is a great-looking trailer for a great-looking show!
I love the look of this. All of the iconography is perfect. The mood is perfect. Walter Goggins is going to really bring it! I really like the transition of the Vault Dweller from beginning to end. Everything looks solid!
And awesome news: every single episode of Fallout will be available on the same day, when it launches on Amazon Prime on April 11!

Top 6 Tyrannosaurus Rex Characters in Pop Culture
The Tyrannosaurus Rex is damn cool. Dinosaurs are already cool, and there is no cooler dinosaur than the T-Rex, the Tyrant Lizard King! Which is why the T-Rex is all over pop culture, from comics to cartoons to the big screen. I even modeled the villain of my new Gamer Girl & Vixen comic after a Tyrannosaur!
That’s right, I was able to tie this week’s List of Six back into my ongoing Kickstarter campaign! Such is the way of things. But Tyrannosaurus Regina is not yet a household name, so I had to put this list together out of known T-Rex characters in pop culture. The meanest, toughest, coolest and nicest Tyrannosaurs in pop culture even!
Join me after the jump for some pretty great Tyrannosaur characters!
