There’s Gonna Be More Castlevania Cartoon
The Castlevania show on Netflix was awesome as hell. Badass vampire and monster action, great heroes, great villains, and just an all around wonderful story across four seasons. But it came to an end and surely that was that. Nope! We’re gonna get a sequel show following a different Belmont.
Castlevania: Nocturne looks cool. Take everything awesome from the first show and move it into the French Revolution. Why not? Looks like fun. They’ve lost Warren Ellis as the head writer, it would seem. No reason to fear. He was good, but perhaps these new guys will be good too.
Castlevania: Nocturne comes to Netflix on Sept. 28.

Nimona Looks Pretty Great
There’s a new animated movie coming to Netflix called Nimona, based on a comic by N.D. Stevenson. I never read the comic, but Stevenson was the genius behind She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, so I trust everything they do from now on. Nimona looks pretty great!
Looks fun, looks pretty silly, but it also looks touching and cool. Nimona is being hailed as an LGBTQ+ story, which is great for Pride Month. I’m definitely looking forward to watching this one.
Nimona comes to Netflix on June 30.

This Witcher Season 3 Trailer Tells Me Nothing
A lot of fuss is being made about the Witcher TV show on Netflix, mostly that the lead actor, Henry Cavill, is stepping away from the role. The dude is allowed to make whatever choices he wants. I enjoyed the first season, I think I liked the second season, and I liked the various spin-off cartoons and seasons we’ve had. It’s all good. But this full trailer for season 3 doesn’t tell me a whole lot.
Honestly, I can’t even remember the plot of season 2. I don’t remember what happened and I don’t remember how it ended. Did it end with a cliffhanger? I have no idea, and this trailer gives me nothing to go on.
Maybe Cavill was right to leave…
The Witcher season 3 is coming to Netflix on June 29, which is surprisingly soon.

TV Trailer Monday Doesn’t Have the Same Ring
It’s Monday again, like always. And I’ve got to fill the void with something. Last Monday, I have movie trailers, and Movie Trailer Monday had some good alliteration. But TV Trailer Monday doesn’t have the same ring to it. What’s up with that? What kind of clown show am I running here?
But hey, how about a trailer for the fifth and final season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel!
I really like this show and I’m very excited for the final season. The fourth season was an interesting one, and it ended on a really strong note. And I think the promise is there to go out in a really special way. At least I hope so. Trailer looks OK, at least. The final season comes to Amazon Prime on April 14.
Next up is the trailer for the second season of Sweet Tooth on Netflix. I enjoyed the first season and am definitely looking forward to a second.
Is it the final season? Considering how Netflix runs, probably. Hopefully it ends well too, when it’s suddenly cancelled between seasons. A cliffhanger would be a real bummer. But the action looks good, the stakes look raised, and everything seems quality to me. So my hopes are up.
Sweet Tooth returns on April 27.

Aggretsuko is On It’s Way Back!
Aggretsuko is coming back for it’s fifth and final season on Netfix in a couple of weeks! It’s a fun cartoon, and I have high hopes that it will go out with a strong season.
Is Retsuko running for office? That’s an interesting choice. And we’ll find out if there’s any relationship hope between Retsuko and Haida. Honestly, I was for them in the beginning, but they went too far with the will they/won’t they stuff for my tastes. Haida had a good thing with that one girl! Ah well, I guess we’ll find out.
Aggretsuko returns on Feb. 16.
