Hilda is Coming Back for a Second Season!
Honestly, I’m a little shocked to learn that the adorable animated show Hilda has only had one season so far. I watched it and I enjoyed it…but apparently, in my memory, I thought it was much more than just 13 episodes. Turns out I’m wrong! And they came out all the way back in 2018!
Well good news, Hilda fans! Season 2 starts in two weeks!
Hilda is an adventurous little girl who lives in a world of urban fantasy. She lives in a nice little town, and then there’s monsters and elves and magic and all sorts of stuff. It’s a quaint little cartoon and definitely worth a watch!
Hilda season 2 comes to Netflix on Dec. 14.

A New Doctor Who Special is Coming!
As is tradition, there’s going to be a Doctor Who TV special for New Year’s Day. Revolution of the Daleks is going to mostly star the companions as they take on the Daleks without the Doctor…but with a special guest!
Honestly, this finally better be where the Doctor is reunited with Jack Harkness. You can’t keep teasing that! Let it happen!
I’m several episodes behind on the latest season. I used to be a big Doctor Who fan, but I guess I just got bored with the latest season. And I had the big season ending revelation spoiled for me, and I’m largely fine with it. Guess I should settle in and watch before New Year’s.

We’ve Had a Live Action Starfire This Whole Time!
The third season of the TV show Titans is due out…I think any year now…on HBO Max! We’ve already seen the live action Red Hood costume, and now they’ve revealed the new, more comics-accurate Starfire costume!
Here’s actor Anna Diop in the flashy purple Starfire costume!
I think it looks neat! It also looks a little awkward, but then a proper comic book Starfire costume was probably always going to look awkward. At least she’s not being made to wear a purple metal bikini on national TV…or HBO Max.
I still need to watch the second season of Titans.

Have You Seen Letterkenny?
So I got introduced to this show a couple months ago and I immediately binged all 8 seasons because it’s just that good. Letterkenny is about some good old boys in rural Canada, and I believe it’s available to watch on Crave and/or Hulu. Season 9 is coming out in a month!
Consider this a strong recommendation from me: go watch Letterkenny. Half an hour episodes of delightful comedy and wordplay. That’s good watching.
Season 9 debuts on Christmas Day.

Some People May Be Looking Forward to the Snyder Cut
I am not one of those people. I liked Justice League well enough when I saw it in theaters, but I haven’t seen it since. And I like a lot of director Zack Snyder’s earlier work, like 300 and Watchmen. Heck, I also really like Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah!
But man, this new-ish trailer for the #SnyderCut is atrocious.
First of all, it’s almost exactly like the original trailer that was put up a couple weeks ago. That got taken down for a copyright strike on the song…so they just re-upload the trailer again with the same song and a couple of seconds of new footage? Second of all, it’s in black and white?! The actual #SnyderCut will not be in black and white. Which means this is an entirely “artistic” choice for this trailer. Jeez louise.
Third of all, did you hear that Wonder Woman 1984 is going to debut both in theaters and on HBO Max on Christmas Day? Bold strategy! Looks like I’ll get to see it after all!
