How About a Spooky Strange Things Teaser?
For reasons we don’t yet understand, Netflix put out a teaser trailer for the fourth season of Stranger Things today. It teases an origin story for Eleven…so perhaps we’ll meet those super-powered teens from that one episode of season 3 again?
Who knows, because the trailer doesn’t tell us much, not even a release date.
But hey, I’m excited for more Stranger Things, so here’s hoping we get more Stranger Things sooner rather than later!

How About Just Some Rick and Morty Madness?
Rick and Morty season 5 is coming at the end of June and the world is probably ready for it. I know I am! To help get us excited, some really sweet Rick and Morty business arrived this weekend. We’ve got a new trailer, which looks as good as always.
And then we’ve got this 17-minute, 8-bit adventure animated by Paul Robertson. Holy jeez louise, this one.
What the heck do we even make of that?! Other than art is amazing and this Robertson dude is some kind of god. If this doesn’t spur Cartoon Network into hiring Robertson to make a legit Rick and Morty 8-bit adventure, I don’t know what will! Everybody loved that Scott Pilgrim game, right? Do that, but make it this!
Find the time to watch all 17 minutes. This thing is really nifty!

Castlevania is Coming Back For More!
The fourth and final season of the awesome Castlevania cartoon is coming back to Netflix next month! This show is great. It’s madness wrapped in insanity dotted with monster explosions.
I feel like I need some kind of refresher for season 3. But the new season looks great and I can’t wait to watch. This show is as crazy as it gets. So much creativity, so much wildness, a real envelope-pushing show for weirdness. I’m confident they can bring it all together for a really solid and enjoyable finale.
We’ll find out when Castlevania comes back on May 13.

6 Thoughts on the (First?) Season of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier
Six weeks of action and excitement have come and gone and I declare that the first season of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was awesome! I loved the whole darn thing, from beginning to end. A lot of chatter online has this show as flawed, but I disagree entirely. I had fun the whole way through and loved pretty much every minute of it.
TV Rating: 9/10 – Great.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was everything I wanted and more. Going into the series, I expected an action show on par with the action-heavy Marvel movies, and we got that. I expected some fun banter/butting heads between Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes. We got that. Then the show took things even further with some truly memorable side characters and a deeper exploration of race than I would have ever predicted. I thought that part was great as well!
What can I say? I love me some Marvel Cinematic Universe content!
Join me after the jump for my thoughts on The Falcon and the Winter Soldier! Expect FULL SPOILERS for the show!
Read the rest of this entrySome of My Favorite Shows Are Coming Back!
It’s a nice, simple Tuesday and so I figured I’d share some trailers for some returning TV shows I really enjoy! A lot of my favorite shows have been ending recently, so it’s nice that some of them are indeed coming back.
First up is the newly announced third season of Master of None. I don’t think anybody expected this show to return after Aziz Ansari’s scandal, but apparently they’re going to pivot and the third season will be about Lena Waithe’s character. I think that’s a neat way to take things.
Master of None: Moments in Love will arrive on Netflix on May 23.
Next up is the second season of Ted Lasso on AppleTV+, which should be amazing! I watched Ted Lasso earlier this year and was blown away by this show. I’d heard of it last year when it debuted, and it seemed to do OK. But when I watched it myself, holy cow, what a masterpiece! So funny, so charming, so heartwarming; this is a great show!
Ted Lasso will return to AppleTV+ on July 23.
Gonna be good to have fun new TV!
