The Only Thing I’m Apparently Posting This Week is Trailers for The Bear
I didn’t plan it this way. I’ve given myself permission to not have to post something every single day, and I enjoy that freedom. But I still want to share trailers for stuff I like, and any other random stuff I find and want to share. But I didn’t have a List of Six for this week, and don’t really have any comics to review this week. And, well…the only trailers I’m finding to share this week are a teaser for the third season of The Bear, and now a full trailer for the third season of The Bear.
Don’t watch this trailer if you’re not fully caught up on The Bear.
Sure looks like another season of The Bear! Like I mentioned the other day, it’s an amazing show that easily lives up to all the hype it has accrued. I’m confident season 3 will be super fun.
Maybe Friday will bring yet another trailer for The Bear?! Anything could happen this week.
The Bear returns to Hulu on June 27.

Notice: Season 3 of The Bear Coming Soon
The Bear is one of the best TV shows coming out right now. Believe me when I say that it lives up to all the hype. Had I watched the second season when it came out last year, it would have been my favorite show of the year with ease. I plan on watching season 3 when it comes out on time next month.
Some spoilers in this little trailer, so don’t watch if you aren’t caught up.
Season 3 should be a hoot! Plenty of places to go, plenty of drama and comedy to be had. I can’t wait!
The Bear returns to Hulu on June 27.

6 Things I Want To See in the Second Season of X-Men ’97
The first season of X-Men ’97 was a masterpiece. It was perfect from beginning to end. And one of the best parts of the series was how it took multiple storylines from the comics and condensed and reworked them to fit the show’s own, largely original storyline. It was brilliantly done. I gave the show a perfect 10/10 score in my review last week. Loved it!
So what about season 2?
X-Men ’97 has already been confirmed for a second and third season. In fact, season 2 is already in production. Showrunner Beau DeMayo has been fired by Marvel for reasons that have not yet been revealed, but he wrote a lot of the scripts for season 2, so there should be some quality assured. But aside from Apocalypse being a main focus, season 2 could feature pretty much anything and anyone. Season 1 was also filled to the brim with cameos and Easter Egg character appearances. Anyone could appear from anywhere in the franchise.
I did a List of Six years ago about characters and concepts I hoped to see in X-Men ’97. Nothing on that list came to pass. Now that we know what we can expect from this show, I’ve put together a new list specifically for what I’d like to see in season 2! And expect FULL SPOILERS for season 1 in this list as I discuss what I’d like to see happen next!

6 Thoughts on the First Season of X-Men ’97
I mean, jeez louis, people. What an intense and amazing two months this has been. My expectations were very tempered when this show was first announced, and then we go those first few trailers. But from episode one, I have been hooked and completely on board with this insane idea that worked far, far better than it had any right to work.
TV Show Rating: 10/10 – Fantastic
I was a huge fan of the original X-Men Animated Series when it came out in the 1990s. I was the perfect age for it and was already solidly versed with the comics — though not the comics that were current at the time. The show introduced me to characters like Gambit, Rogue and Jubilee, and then so much more beyond them. The original show was everything. And now this new continuation is everything again. It’s so damn good. They did everything right and then some. X-Men ’97 is so good, I wonder if it will affect the MCU plans for the X-Men going forward…
Anyway, the finale aired yesterday and I’m ready to talk about the show! Expect FULL SPOILERS for the whole show. Seriously! DO NOT READ THIS LIST if you haven’t watched X-Men ’97! But if you have, join me after the jump for my thoughts! And please feel free to share your thoughts and review in the comments below!

The finale of X-Men ’97 dropped today, but I can’t watch it until my viewing buddy gets online later tonight. So expect my season review List of Six tomorrow! Today, I’ll busy myself with some trailers for some TV shows I like.
For example, turns out they’re making a second season of The Rings of Power! Not everybody enjoyed that show, but I definitely did, and I’m looking forward to a second season!
I enjoyed the first season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, despite the clunky name. It had plenty of great LoTR elements, and I really enjoyed the mysterious figure and the proto-hobbits. This trailer leans far far more into the death, evil and destruction side of things, which is fine. But hopefully the whimsy isn’t gone forever.
The Rings of Power returns to Amazon Prime on Aug. 29.
Also, did you see that LEGO has announced an Eye of Sauron/Barad-dur set? Holy crap!
Moving on, there’s going to be a fourth season of Only Murders in the Building!
I enjoy this show as well! Though a lot of people do, so it’s definitely not Rings of Power. The three leads have great chemistry and are super fun together. And I enjoy the mystery element as well. I actually guessed the killer right in one of the seasons! Then guessed wrong in the other two seasons. Oh well. This looks like a lot of fun and can’t wait to return to the show!
Only Murders in the Building season 4 returns to Hulu on Aug. 27.
