She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is Only Two Days Away!
Because the world can never see you slow down, the next Marvel TV show is only two days away. I’m very excited for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law because it looks to be a fun legal comedy, and I would love to watch a Marvel show in that vein. Seems new and interesting. So much so, check out this “law firm” advertisement commercial.
That’s some fun marketing. I love it when marketing can actually be clever and smart. We’re stuck with marketing in our lives, the least it can do is be entertaining. And this works. So I’m definitely excited for the show now! And just wait until you see tomorrow’s List of Six.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law debuts on Disney+ on Thursday.

Groot Is Adorable As Ever in I Am Groot Cartoons
Groot is awesome. We can all agree on that. Well he’s going to star in his own series of animated shorts this fall, called I Am Groot. We’re known about the show for a while, and no we’ve got the first trailer, courtesy of San Diego Comic Con.
And I think it looks great. I’m no elitist. I will gladly accept any and all content Marvel wishes to give me. It doesn’t take a lot to make me happy when it comes to this stuff. And this looks adorable and fun. My life can support watching a couple of neat little cartoon shorts about Groot. Bring them on!
Five original shorts are going to start up on Disney+ on Aug. 10.

6 Thoughts on Ms. Marvel (Review)
Kamala Khan has arrived on our television screens and the Ms. Marvel show was everything I could have wanted and more! I’ve been a champion of the character since she was first announced in comics, and I couldn’t be happier at how well this character was actually received and how popular she’s become. And I’m so glad her TV show was amazing.
TV Show Rating: 10/10 – Fantastic
This might be my new favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe TV show. Pretty much every aspect of this show was perfect — and a perfect translation from the comics. The showrunners captured that wonderful Kamala Khan dynamic directly from the page, and infused the series with joy, energy and wonderful character development. They got the family right. They got the religion right. They may have crammed a bit too much into just six episodes, but that’s not a dealbreaker.
Join me after the jump for my thoughts and full review of the Ms. Marvel TV show! Expect FULL SPOILERS for the show. And feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments!

6 Thoughts on Obi-Wan Kenobi (Review)
I wasn’t as super-hyped about the Obi-Wan Kenobi TV show as other Star Wars fans seemed to be. I was just never a big Obi-Wan fan in general. But I still love Star Wars and I’m going to watch whatever shows they put out. More power to them. Now that Obi-Wan has come and gone, I felt it was all just generally fine. Nothing particularly special, as far as I’m concerned.
TV Show Rating: 7/10 – Good
In the end, I feel like Obi-Wan Kenobi was just a simple, straight forward adventure that this hermit Jedi gets to go on. It doesn’t really alter anything we know about the character or the era of the Star Wars timeline. I actually think it adds some unneeded complications that will need smoothing over in all our minds. But I was never bored, and there were definitely some cool moments. It’s definitely not a bad show. I just don’t think it was anything special.
Join me after the jump for my review and all my thoughts on the first(?) season of Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Read the rest of this entryAndor is Actually Surprising Star Wars Material
We’ve known for a very long time now that Star Wars: Rogue One character Cassian Andor would be getting his own spin-off TV show. And since he dies at the end of that movie, it’s a prequel. Nobody is very sure what Andor is going to be about, but the first trailer arrived yesterday as part of Star Wars: Celebration. And it looks cool and funky!
I love the look of this trailer. It’s a bit wild, a bit gnarly, and looks like some solid action and intrigue around the early days of the rebellion. I’m all for that kind of exploration. And hopefully Andor himself turns out to be a cool character on his own. We can hope, right? There’s no reason he can’t be cool as hell in his own show!
Andor comes to Disney+ on Aug. 31.
