The Orville is back with a second season. In the States, it’ll premiere on Fix on Sunday, 30th December, and we’ll have to see what the schedule is like the for the rest of the world. Some might say that Seth MacFarlane’s sci-fi spoof was an unlikely hit, but it’s packed with talent such as […]

That time Danger Mouse’s team did Discworld!
Count Duckula, Danger Mouse and Discworld… Cosgrove Hall had interesting projects, some more well known than the others.

Comic-Con trailer – Season 2 of Star Trek: Discovery

I seem to recall fans urging Jodie Whittaker to keep her Yorkshire accent for Doctor Who. I don’t recall having any sort of confirmation from the Beeb as to whether that would happen. This trailer starts off soft but the full Yorkshire builds up strongly! Of course, recent Doctors have kept Scottish accents even if […]

Streaming service Netflix has picked up DC Comics and Neil Gaiman’s Lucifer TV series from Fox. News of the cancellation immediately brought speculation that either Amazon or perhaps Netflix would carry on the show. It had middle-ish ratings in the US but did well elsewhere – notably the UK. Just this week Jennifer Salke, boss […]
A review of Blue Exorcist: Definitive Edition – Kyoto Saga
I enjoyed Blue Exorcist, but it took me a while to work out what was going on in season two and a little while to forgive it for that. This arch isn’t either a sequel or a prequel. The Kyoto Saga is set mid-way through season 1.
