How's that? GLOW's last season was over a year ago and the new one would've needed more filming. As far as most of Cobra Kai's audience is concerned the show only just released (despite YouTube). And season 3 is ready to go. It's a lot more present in audience's minds.The reasoning on GLOW feels at odds with their renewal of Cobra Kai, but maybe since the cast of Cobra Kai is less likely to have conflicts in their schedule is the difference.
I more meant the contact portion of their reasoning.How's that? GLOW's last season was over a year ago and the new one would've needed more filming.

Considering they paid out the cast I don't think this is a conflict thing. It's just a case of not being able to film at all til COVID is gone and that could be a LONG time. GLOW is also shot in LA, while Cobra Kai despite being set in LA is filmed in mostly Atlanta (with a little bit in LA and Okinawa).
I doubt it, season 2 blew up
Glow got a low blow.
There's been no news on Wu Assassins and I assumed that would've gone way before some of these.
By every metric I've seen The Witcher is more popular than Umbrella Academy.They won't cancel Umbrella Academy. That's easily one of their biggest hits. It'd be worse than cancelling The Witcher.
I think it goes back to being a worldwide vs a US-only success. The Witcher is clearly the bigger international hit, but Umbrella Academy doesn't seem that far behind. It's definitely stronger than GLOW, Ozark and The OA in that regrad.By every metric I've seen The Witcher is more popular than Umbrella Academy.
That being said weird that Umbrella Academy hasn't been renewed yet as it seemed to be bigger than the first season. The second season renewal happened about 6 weeks after the first season ended so far it's been over 2 months since the second season ended (although maybe they are just waiting to COVID to subside a bit before announcing a renewal as Canada still seems like a difficult place to film)
I agree that Umbrella Academy is one of Netflix biggest scripted shows but it just not on that top level of The Witcher, Stranger Things and Money Heist. For sure much bigger than Glow and The OA though.I think it goes back to being a worldwide vs a US-only success.

Definitely. I'd say Stranger Things, Money Heist, Dark and The Witcher are their biggest international crossover hits. Umbrella Academy is *almost* there but TBH I felt like the lukewarm reception of season 1 didn't do any favors.I agree that Umbrella Academy is one of Netflix biggest scripted shows but it just not on that top level of The Witcher, Stranger Things and Money Heist.

This is precisely why AMC keeps doubling down on TWD shows
[The Right Stuff] is a show where characters drink and smoke constantly. They sleep around, complete withs plenty of implied, barely covered nudity, and have extramarital affairs. And they say "shit." A lot. Watching the show, it's hard not to think about the mild controversies that moved Love, Simon and High Fidelity, deemed too risqué for Disney+, to sister streaming service Hulu, or the brouhaha surrounding the Lizzie McGuire reboot that has, for now, left it temporarily marooned.
The Right Stuff is based on a legacy title, sure, but in terms of form and content, it's very new for Disney+.
As a dramatic series, it's phenomenal; it's frequently touching and just as thrilling. But as a show that could potentially usher in a new era of Disney+, it's even more exciting. Sure, this could be just another television show on the platform but it could just as easily become a watershed moment, one where the boundaries of what is considered Disney+ entertainment are cosmically expanded. It might be one small step for streaming, but it's one giant step for Disney+.
Enjoying Emily in Paris pretty decently. It's not amazing but it has a fun bingeable quality to it.
You know, I wrote this off because it's a Disney+ series that isn't Marvel or Star Wars, but now I just may check it out. Nice to know they let at least one thing get on there that wasn't neutered, although I am skeptical it is a trend or indicator of a larger policy shift.🤔

What's up with the increased focus on America's space program recently? This is like the fourth show this past year (counting the Netflix doc on The Challenger) focussing on this.
I was already interested in it but seeing that someone from here worked on it made me want to watch it more.You know, I wrote this off because it's a Disney+ series that isn't Marvel or Star Wars, but now I just may check it out.

It takes approximately 500 minutes for creator Mike Flanagan's "The Haunting of Bly Manor" to tell a story that would have been just as effective at 120, or even 150 minutes, with fewer characters. Flanagan's previous blockbuster Netflix miniseries "The Haunting of Hill House" was around the same size, and yet the expanse of "Bly Manor" feels unruly, in part because of some grave mistakes.
I mean, not like they get many movies to review these days, heh.I dont know rogerebert site also reviews TV series.
