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.

Surprise Star Wars Characters Show Up in Bad Batch Season 3
The third and final season of The Bad Batch is coming to Disney+ soon, and it promises to be full of Star Wars action and Star Wars characters. That’s always fun. Personally, I still haven’t seen the second season, but thankfully this trailer doens’t reveal anything too crazy that I missed.
Of course, the big reveal of this trailer is that returning character at the end. No spoilers. I’ve always been a fan of the character, and I’m perfectly happy to see her come back for some awesome action scenes. Why not? Nobody’s ever really gone in Star Wars. As long as the episodes and the action is entertaining.
The third season of The Bad Batch comes to Disney+ on February 21!

6 Thoughts on Echo
Consider me among the people who wasn’t sure if an Echo spin-off series as a great idea. I enjoyed the Hawkeye TV show probably more than most people, and Echo was a fine antagonist in that series, but she wasn’t exactly a showstealer. And her character isn’t exactly all that popular or well known in the comics. But Marvel do what Marvel do, and we got ourselves an Echo TV show!
TV Show Rating: 6/10 – Pretty Good
In a change from the normal Marvel show on Disney+, all five episodes of Echo were released on the same day. Ultimately, this was a great idea, because those episodes were not meaty enough to warrant week-by-week release. I was able to binge the whole thing over a few nights and I can say I’m pleased with the final product. It’s not as bad as I feared, though it also didn’t do much to warrant existing. Still, there’s more good than bad in the first season of Echo and I wouldn’t mind seeing more — especially guest starring elsewhere.
Join me after the jump for my review and full thoughts on the Echo TV show! Expect SOME SPOILERS for the show, and feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments below.
