Watched the first two this morning. I’ve not read the books or even had a vague overview of the story and I enjoyed it. Didn’t take too long to get to know how the universe operates. Was worried for a moment that it could be heavy on impenetrable maths, but they worked around that.

First 3 of season 3 aired in the US. 2 eps in and it’s still Doom Patrol.

It's got a return date, for the US at least. 10 March, 2022. And it's now The Orville: New Horizons.

HES BEHIND YOU!!!

It's the date the service originally launched.

Oh yeah, of course.

They've decided it's Disney+ Day and they intend to make a big thing of it every year.

I've already blitzed the whole lot. The first might have been the best. People will probably be happy to hear there's little in the way of direct crossover with movies, or "small universe", people don't like. I think it was just one episode with some existing characters.

Now Netflix have gone full Victor Kiam and bought the Roald Dahl Story Company.

Very much a lighthearted affair this week, so some of you will probably hate it. The fuck was that at the end though?

Finally made it to a cinema for the first time since... I can't even remember what I saw last in the before times. I really enjoyed this.

Second season of Belgian show Into the Night came out recently, though I'm only starting on it now. And I noticed there's a Turkish spin-off also coming. Set on a submarine, running concurrently with this, named Into the Deep.

Just noticed with a little surprise that my 2015 TV has a native app so I gave it a short try seeing as I don’t need to buy anything extra. And it works! I’ll have to give some game a proper try.

And I completely forgot that return with Merc!

I don't remember taking any notice of his logo before this film.

I enjoyed the weirdness.

NASCAR are holding a race inside the LA Coliseum. On a wee 1/4 mile temporary track.

Anthony Mackie is to take the lead role of John Doe. https://deadline.com/2021/09/anthony-mackie-john-doe-sony-pictures-television-playstation-productions-twisted-metal-series-1234833738/

Bryce Dallas Howard is to direct a reboot of Flight Of The Navigator.

It’s already wrapped filming. Amber Midthunder (Legion, Banshee, Roswell) is the lead.

I think they came up on John Oliver’s show sometime when he did pyramid schemes or something.

This is finally set to happen. Again. But instead of the long rumoured Eddie Murphy, it's Tracy Morgan.
