What’s big in the TV world? I read that David Gordon Green, who keeps trying to remake the sequels to horror franchises, is trying to do a Garbage pail kids film. Also, Guillermo Del Toro was attached to a Jabba The Hutt film and I’m wondering why anyone in their right mind would have cancelled that project. If he wants to make that movie, you let him.
7) Daryl Dixon (AMC Plus)
English Audio Description?: No
Status: Renewed
Still a lot of French with subtitles I can’t read, as well as zombie sequences i can’t follow without audio description. Daryl does communicate over a radio with an actress clearly standing in for Melissa McBride, and I never realized how important Ezekiel was to Daryl. But, again, i cannot stress this enough, this show needs audio description.
Episode Grade: Unwatchable
6) 6) I Am Groot (Disney Plus)
English Audio Description?: Yes
Status: unknown
I watched the first episode of this, and then later on thought… why didn’t I jsut watch the entire season? If that was 5 minutes, I’d be shocked. I did love how in the beginning, Groot was messing with the marvel intro logo. that was cute. Inconsequential, is how I’d describe these cute shorts.
Episode Grade: C+
5) Virgin River (Netflix)
English Audio Description?: Yes
Status: Renewed
Tragedy strikes as the wildfire comes closer. Mel has a personal loss she can’t deal with because we’re too busy. Muriel is now helping out hardcore, as she did a few episodes of General hospital. Jack and Brody are trying to find a little girl that wandered into the wildfire (WHERE are her parents?), and our teenage lovebirds are left in mortal danger. Oh, and a character I’ve never heard of before might die.
Episode Grade: B-
4) Star Trek lower Decks (Paramount Plus)
English Audio Description?: Yes
Status: Final Season
I think Paramount pulled the plug on this. So, the hijinx are coming to an end, but not before some promotions! This show works best when it’s having fun, and the least when it takes itself too seriously.
Episode Grade: B-
3) Wilderness (Amazon)
English Audio Description?: Yes
Status: Unknown
A couple moves to New York, and hit a bump in the road when the woman finds out the man cheated. Then, a road trip is planned, and she starts trying to figure out how to make it look like he just died naturally in the woods. This should be a half hour show, as it is basically a dark comedy, and stretching it for an hour is killing the mood.
Episode Grade: B
2) praise petey (Hulu)
English Audio Description?: No
Status: unknown
I had some friends who watched this. it doesn’t ahve audio description, but some moments of humor were very solid. I loved the joke about the word “daughter” and how people of this generation need a word for everything now. It’s really silly, but I wish it had audio description. The plot is unique, as an aimless young woman inherits a cult from her father. It’s adult animation.
Episode Grade: B+
1) Community (Netflix)
