Mr. & Mrs. Smith Looks Great!
It’s a new year, so we’ve got new television to watch! And the new Mr. & Mrs. Smith show on Amazon Prime is starting to look really great. It’s not going to be a remake of that Brad Pitt/Angelina Jolie movie, it has it’s own plot. And that works for me.
As anyone could have predicted, Donald Glover and Maya Erskine look like they’re going to be amazing together! My interest in this show exists purely on the strength of their awesomeness, and this trailer shows that off perfectly. I’m totally on board and can’t wait to watch!
Mr. & Mrs. Smith comes to Amazon Prime starting on Feb. 2.

A New Mr. & Mrs. Smith, For the Fun Of It
Amazon Prime is going to make a new Mr. & Mrs. Smith TV show, possibly just for the heck of it? I just did a Wikipedia search and apparently the original movie, an Alfred Hitchcock comedy from 1941, had nothing to do with spies? And then there was a TV series that was about spies in 1996, and then I don’t think either had anything to do with the more well known Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie movie in 2005.
I have no idea what this “franchise” is about…but I do know that Donald Glover and Maya Erskine sounds like a great casting!
Honestly, I’m really only interested in watching this show because of those two. Donald Glover needs no introduction, so he should be great. And then Maya Erskine has been kicking all sorts of ass. She burst onto the scene with Pen15, which is great. And she keeps showing up in stuff I enjoy, like the 2019 movie Plus One, which is a super fun romcom. Then she had a small role in the Obi-Wan Kenobi TV show. And just last night I discovered that she plays the main character in the new Netflix anime Blue Eye Samurai, which I’m loving so far!
So yeah, I’m kinda into this show to see Maya Erskine kicking more ass. Mr. & Mrs. Smith is going to kick off on Amazon Prime on Feb. 2.

TV Trailer Tuesday
Yesterday was all about sharing movie trailers. Today is all about sharing TV show trailers. Makes sense, right? Movies on Monday, TV shows on Tuesday. Keep up. Anyway, a couple really good TV show trailers came out in the past week, and I wanna share. It’s what I do.
First up is Masters of the Universe: Revolution. I really, really enjoyed Revelation and can’t wait for more in this series.
We don’t see too much in that trailer, but we’ve got more Skeletor, Motherboard and now Hordak. Will we get She-Ra? If only. I can hope. And I can also hope that my favorite character, Snout Spout, shows up. He’s the one I had an action figure of, and I want him in the show!
Masters of the Universe: Revolution is coming to Netflix in January.
Next up is the full trailer for Reacher season 2.
I really enjoyed the first season of Reacher. It was a solid, enjoyable action show, and Alan Ritchson is a cool guy. So by all means, enjoy more of your hit show! Make it just as good as season 1. Do it right.
Reacher season 2 comes to Amazon Prime on Dec. 15.
Finally, our first look at Dead Boy Detectives, the spin-off from Doom Patrol and Sandman.
I never read the comics, but any season created by Neil Gaiman is going to be a hoot! And I’m going to be fully on board. Looks like a fun, spooky show and I’m sure it will be.
Dead Boy Detectives is coming to Netflix soon.

Invincible Season 2 is Gonna Rock
I’ve read the entire Invincible comic book series, and it’s all pretty great. So I have high hopes that the cartoon on Amazon is going to make it all the way through the series. Keep hopes high! I already have faith after they took the opening chapters and turned them into that excellent first season.
A full trailer for season 2 was released at New York Comic-Con this past weekend.
Looks great to me! I recognize some of the new characters, though not all. I recognized some of the moments, though not all. So it should still be something of a surprise for me. Looking forward to this one, for sure!
Invincible returns to Amazon Prime on Nov. 3.

How About a Second Season of The Wheel of Time?
I’m back home from my trip to New York City, recovering from all the new bruises I got from being outside my comfort zone. Ow. Anyway, it’s a Tuesday, there’s not a lot going on, I missed yesterday; how about a trailer for a second season of The Wheel of Time on Amazon Prime?
I barely remember the first season. I know I liked it, definitely liked it more than I guess the general consensus. Something about a chosen one? If you haven’t seen the first season, the trailer gives away which character is the chosen one. But I think I only recognized some of the actors in that trailer, and only a little bit of the plot. Oh well. I’ll probably watch a recap video on YouTube and then dive into season 2 at some point.
The Wheel of Time season 2 comes out on Sept. 1.
