More Doom Patrol is Coming
Doom Patrol is a quality TV show and we’re going to get a fourth season! I gave up on Titans. I gave up on all those CW DC shows. But Doom Patrol remains some real quality content, and New York Comic Con has given us a fun new trailer!
Can’t really tell all that’s happening in this madness of a trailer. But it’s the Doom Patrol. They’ve really gone all out season after season. I’m sure we can count on real good stuff happening to our eyeballs.
Also, the Shipoopi song will always hold a special place in my heart because I sang it when my high school did the Music Man! Good times!
Season 4 of the Doom Patrol comes to HBO Max on Dec. 8.

First Last of Us Trailer Picked a Great Song
The Last of Us is going to be a TV show on HBO, and now we’ve got the first ever trailer! It looks great and they picked a great song to go along with it. This trailer does a great job of setting the mood and setting up all we know about the Last of Us world.
I have high hopes for this show. I loved both games, including The Last of Us 2, and I’m sure HBO can do a good job. There have been a lot of good adaptations of books and comics and games that have crashed and burned lately. So I’m going to remain hopeful and positive, especially after this first look.
And you can always count on Alone and Forsaken by Hank Williams to be a kickass doomsday song.
The Last of Us comes to HBO next year.

Harley Quinn Season 3 is Coming Next Month!
Harley Quinn is coming back, baby! I am a huge fan of the Harley Quinn cartoon show. It’s hilarious, raunchy, scary, sexy, well-made, well-acted and full of all sorts of good everything. It’s been a long wait since the end of season 2, so I’m super excited to share this trailer for season 3!
Looks great to me! The animation even looks better. Crisper? More detailed? Who knows! But everything looks great! And we’re gonna get appearances by Swamp Thing, the Court of Owls, Amanda Waller and, apparently, Nightwing! So awesome. I can’t wait for the new season…but I’m going to have to wait at least a month.
Harley Quinn season 3 comes out on July 28!

Westworld is Looking Freaky
Will I be watching the new season of Westworld on HBO? Probably! Will I remember what the heck is even going on? Probably not!
We are overflowing with good TV options these days, but the old standbys are still delightful. Westworld has been largely good across three seasons, but I never remember what the heck is going on or what’s going to happen. And the new full trailer doesn’t help in the least. But a show is a show, you know?
Westworld season 4 arrives on Sunday!

TV Trailers Out the Wazoo!
I’ve been sitting on a bunch of TV show trailers for no particular reason other than to take up time on a Monday. And guess what? It’s a Monday! So on the off chance you haven’t seen any of these yet, enjoy some trailers for some upcoming big ticket TV shows.
First up is the trailer for the third season of the Umbrella Academy.
Love this show, love how season 3 looks. I never read the comics so I don’t know if we’re still following existing stories or if the TV show is off on its own road. Doesn’t matter to me. It’s all good, and season 3 should be just as good as the rest. Everybody on the team seems to be on the same page, so at least they won’t be butting heads the whole season.
Umbrella Academy returns to Netflix on June 22.
Next, how about we take a peak at the upcoming fourth season of Westworld!
I will probably watch Westworld, but I can’t be sure. I barely remember what happened in season 3, and I definitely barely remember what the larger, ongoing narrative has been. I’m pretty sure I liked season 3, but again, I honestly don’t remember. Did I even finish the season?
Whatever the case may be, Westworld season 4 comes to HBO Max on June 26.
Finally, the first trailer for the Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon.
Honestly, I have no interest in this show. I loved Game of Thrones as much as the next person. Heck, I’m even one of those rare weirdos who was perfectly content with the final seasons and the finale. It all ended perfectly fine by me. But a prequel? Set thousands of years in the past? And is basically a story we already know from Game of Thrones? No thank you.
I just don’t know what this show can possibly offer. A bunch of Targaryen in-fighting? And some less-memorable CGI dragons? It feels so desperate.
But what do I know? I’ll probably watch it eventually.
House of the Dragon comes to HBO Max on Aug. 21.
