I was looking through my unwatched list on TV Calendar and noticed I missed the two specials for Euphoria from December/January. I just watched the one with Rue and Ali in the diner and holy shit how did I miss this? I couldn't look away from my TV the entire time. I feel fucking spent.
These two specials are absolutely fantastic! I know what you mean when you say you're feeling spent. The Jules one is also very strong.
This is the last of those Hulu Marvel shows, right? I thought they originally had like 3-5 of these shows in the work but some got cancelled, if I remember correctly...
Yeah I think a bunch of them just got canned. Maybe in favor of just keeping stuff on D+? Of course, if they wanted to keep going with more adult humor, Hulu would be the place. Even MODOK had an ending where it looked like they expected an S2 to happen, and it hasn't been cancelled officially yet, but hasn't been looking good.

I assume having his own production company means more freedom in the long-run, but I also suppose the Mouse giving you a big bag is equally as nice.
Another new David Simon show is in the works:

is this Simon Kinberg thing that folks here were heavily implying to be bad?
2 more days, think it has a late embargo for reviews. Hope that isn't a bad sign.
Oh man if Foundation isn't quality I'm going to be super let down. Everything about it has sounded excellent.
Yeah I had never heard of it but saw a trailer and it looks fantastic.
IIRC there were some reviewers suggesting Foundation was not bad per se but kind just....flat?
Well, they were being vague and some were suggesting it was about Wheel of Time (part of the talk was it was about a huge book series being adapted), but that's not out until November.

The Big Leap did a 0.3

(I honestly don't even know how to go about predicting ratings anymore...)
Yowch! I thought their lead-ins were super strong and would boost those shows too. Damn.

‘Let The Right One In’ Vampire Drama Starring Demián Bichir Ordered To Series By Showtime
Showtime has picked up to series pilot Let the Right One In, starring Demián Bichir, completing the vampire drama's journey to the screen.

Considering the books don't work for everyone, that doesn't surprise me. Not to mention how it seems that they're adapting basically the prologue with elements from the prequels, which means the story should be a slow burn (in this case, unlike the first novel as that was technically just a collection of short stories).
That said, Foundation is still probably my favorite novel ever so I doubt I won't enjoy it.
Oooo. This could be great if done well. I adored both the original and it's American remake. Also Bichir needs to be in more stuff he's a delightful actor to watch‘Let The Right One In’ Vampire Drama Starring Demián Bichir Ordered To Series By Showtime

I really enjoyed him on The Bridge, especially S2. I liked the movie as well and it worked so well in the format, just wonder how they stretch it out for TV. Especially if they plan to go multiple seasons.
As a big fan of this show I don't wanna give anyone hope but, I thought I should shed some light on this.
Dark Matter Creator Joseph Mallozzi Reveals New Miniseries Pitch
Finally started work on the pitch for the Dark Matter miniseries. I've spent the past week or so running through the basic story and structure, ultimately landing on a six episode arc that will cover the alien chapter originally planned for the show's fourth season.
Set three years after the events of Episode 313, a missing player returns with the key to thwarting a massive alien invasion. In order to defeat this formidable enemy, unlikely alliances will be forged, long-held secrets will be revealed, and the seeds of an even greater threat will be sown. And, yes, the plan is to bring back the entire cast along with all relevant guest stars.
THE MINISERIES
It's been three long years since the alien incursion that has wrought havoc over the galaxy. Billions of lives have been lost, countless worlds destroyed. Finally, however, salvation presents itself in the form of an unfathomable piece of technology, couriered from an alien reality by a long-lost former member of the Raza crew. IT holds the key to turning the tables on the other-worldly invaders, but it is also only one piece of an intricate puzzle. To pull this off, our heroes will have to track down and reunite their departed crew members, ally themselves with the Galactic Authority, duplicitous corporations, and a faction of rebel androids committed to overthrowing the anthroparchy – human rule. They'll forge new alliances, suffer surprising betrayals, and risk it all for one final shot at redemption.
His blog has a character synopsis for each of the crew and where they are at now in the story if you want more details but, with a time skip and it only being a limited 6 episode run I hope someone picks it up and we can at least have the ending.

I really enjoyed Dark Matter, but I don't have any high hopes for this.
It's nice he's still trying to finish it off, but I don't have confidence in SyFy or another network in picking this up. And not sure if this limited series is something a streaming service is willing to do, especially if they can't pick up the rights of the prior seasons.
Didn't they learn anything from Making a Murderer 2?
Yup.
They also did a "The House of True Crime" ad that leans into the genre in such a nasty way.
Last year when a bunch of friends wanted me to watch Tiger King I asked them if it was actually good or if they only watched it because they were bored. None of them responded to the question and so I had my answer and skipped it.

Nice that we are going to get more Derry Girls, even if it is going to end. Was pretty sure a Season 3 was out of the cards at this point.
You missed out on probably the most unscrupulous piece of media of the last few years.
Wow just a few days ago I was looking the show up to find out what happened to the final season. Read on wiki that they had finished filming late last year after they got back to recording from their shutdown. The show is bizarre but I've come to really enjoy it when I was catching up on it with a friend. Definitely plan to catch the final season.
3 years will have passed by the time the third seasons of The Orville and Derry Girls release. :O

Bumped the old OT on that two week old Kathryn Prescott news, oops. Glad she's going to make it and not be in a wheel chair, that's horrible. Always liked her in the things I've seen her in.
Still disappointed about the Punky Brewster cancellation, I'm not going to get that episode with her tripping balls and seeing Glomer from the cartoon Punky Brewster show and some shit.
