There will be a bit of unusualness with this blog for a bit as the updates will only be on Saturdays for a while. There will only be random updates when it works out. And I won’t be doing anything else until you see this blog on every Saturday for a whole month. Also note that since I have finally see the first episode of Downton Abbey, I now know that Rose Leslie is on both The Good Fight and Downton Abbey. That makes it even more likely that she appears in this blog at some point in time. I don’t even know yet when or possibly even if the blog I have on The Good Fight is returning to updates on the show itself. It has been about politics in relation to upcoming or past elections since CBS stopped airing the show on network TV in 2019. Will I ever include seasons 2 and onward?
Julianna Margulies: I don’t
see what else she is doing right now at the moment, but hopefully will in
future posts. I didn’t find anything relating to her from this update so
there’s nothing to include here in this update here in the end right now. She has a
recurring role right now on The Morning Show, an Apple TV drama. It might be
more of a major role, but I don’t know how much yet.
Josh Charles: He
will be in something new called We Own This City. It is nice to see him
doing something worth covering in this blog again as we tend to lose a lot of
his updates as they just aren’t worth covering anymore. But this one is for
now. He will also be in Memory and Mothers’ Instinct. One last
thing he will be in for now is The Power.
We Own This City: This is about
Freddie Gray. It is a planned miniseries on HBO. It does not have a trailer
just yet. But it is an interesting idea for something that we will hopefully
see presented in the best way possible to learn more about it. It is currently out
now.
Memory: It’s unknown what this is
about right now as they aren’t telling us what this is about right now. There
is no trailer at this point. Its year of release is 2023. We will find
out more about it over time. I just hope that I don’t forget anything about it.
Mothers’ Instinct: This is another one
of those typical perfect seeming life falls apart cliché that we see from time
to time. It has no release date yet. It also has no trailer at this
point yet either. But I might look forward to it in the event that I can see it
in the end, if it even gets made at all.
The Power: I have
no idea how a whole TV show is being made out of this, but apparently in this
show, teenage girls develop the power to electrocute people at will. This
sounds like a dark twist on the magical girls genre. It doesn’t have a
release date. I have no idea what network or streaming service this might
air on.
Graham Phillips: We’ll see if we see
more of him there in the future or not. Hopefully, he will be doing more than
just that in the future. He is set to be in Rumble Through the Dark.
This is a project that he is set to co-direct. There are no acting projects of
his right now.
Rumble Through the Dark: This has no
release date at the moment or trailer. It does sound like it could be
interesting. It is about a fighter who wants to repay his debts to save his
foster mother’s home. I guess we’ll see what it is like.
Archie Panjabi: This actress did a lot
after leaving the show. She is doing Departure, mentioned more in the
next part of this blog as usual. She is set to be in the third season of Snowpiercer.
Another thing she will be in is Hijack.
Departure: This has been released. It is a Canadian show about the search for victims of a plane crash. It will air on the Global network that I don’t think that I’ll be able to see any time soon. But I’ll keep track of this as much as I’m able to. This is on the Peacock streaming service for those in America available now. A review now follows.
Departure: Show
Description- A plane goes missing and people have to figure out what went on.
Behind the Scenes- Archie Panjabi from The Good Wife and Blindspot is a
character on this show. I think that she is the lead. My Thoughts- It seemed
pretty good, although I’m not sure how there will be enough material for the
show to last. I also have no idea how much beyond the first episode is
available for free. Long Term Prospects- I don’t think that this will last,
although it can. It is worth noting that since this is a Canadian show, the
ratings here don’t matter. Where to Find- Available to stream on Peacock
Snowpiercer: This is a TNT TV show. I don’t know when it airs. It is about people on a train in a dystopian future. There is a lot of drama and classism. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to see this series or not. But it will remain in the updates as long as Archie remains a part of this show in the future.
Hijack: Almost nothing is yet
publically revealed regarding this TV show. It has an unknown release date.
It has no trailer. It doesn’t even have a plot yet. It is just marked right now
as in development and that’s it. We will hopefully find out more about this
later.
Christine Baranski: After rejecting
various pilots and other projects in the hopes of getting a spin-off from the
Good Wife, she got what was wanted and will be on a Good Wife spin-off. It is
available on Paramount+ and some is on DVD. The spin-off is called The Good
Fight. She’ll also be in a movie called Bad Moms’ Moms. We’ll see
what becomes of that. Another thing she will be in is The Gilded Age.
Yet another thing that she will be doing is Praise Petey.
The Good Fight: It will be put on www.cbs.com and be available to watch on Paramount+ to those that want it. It is available now. Expect to see the same review over and over again for whichever people work on this from The Good Wife.
Review: Status- It is available
online at Paramount+ and some is on DVD. Why I’ve seen it- If there is something
in this blog that I can review, I will. Description- Diane continues her
adventures starting from scratch after losing her retirement money and starting
at a new firm. Pros- The show is about the same level of quality that you would
expect from The Good Wife. Cons- Apparently, there is going to be a lot of
nudity in it. Like the original, this show is a bit too confusing. Note to
Parents- Your kids would have to pay to watch this online so if they are seeing
it, then you hopefully were the ones who let that happen, although I’d lean
towards not letting really young people watch this. Recommendation- Since this
is only available online for money, I would actually steer clear of this unless
you really like the show. I like it, but not enough to shell out too much money
for it. Prediction- It is currently airing its final season right now.
Reception: critically acclaimed. Grade: B.
Bad Moms’ Moms: This has no trailer and no release date just yet. It doesn’t have a plot yet outside of being the third installment of the Bad Moms franchise. I imagine this would likely relate to the end of Bad Moms Christmas. Still, I hope that they come up with a better title for it. Is there something wrong with “Bad Grandmas” as a title?
The Gilded Age: This is a TV show. It
is out now on HBO. You might have remembered me talk about this in my TV
show blog where I put it with the cancelled shows since it was never made.
Well, just like with Emerald City, this has found new life again and is set to
air on HBO. It is airing there now. There is a teaser for this show now:
Teaser link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYBuU32B8PI
Thoughts on teaser: I wish that we
could find out more about this, but I guess that we will have to wait until
something else is known. It actually says more in the description of this video
link than anything this teaser mentions. I hope that more can be known in the
future with an official trailer and not just this one. If you don’t see one in
the next post, then you might not see one at all. But this could be in the blog
for a while regardless of if I’m able to see it.
Praise Petey: This is a TV series. The
date of release is unknown. I have no idea where this will air. There is
no trailer yet. But it does have a plot of a female from New York City who has
her life come crashing down until a gift from her father changes things.
Matt Czuchry: All of this time that you’ve seen me doing updates for him in this blog, you only saw me mentioning the reboot of Gilmore Girls. Well, I can finally take that off the update list and report on something new he is finally doing. It is a TV show called The Resident.
The Resident: This is a show that is on hiatus. I’m not sure if there’s a better way of putting it than calling it a medical drama, which is what it would be. The main thing that would make it different is it focusing more on medicine than other shows have, according to one description that I read of it. That description may be wrong upon seeing the trailer, although I’d have to see the show to know for sure. A review of the show now follows.
The Resident: Status- Currently on hiatus. Why I’ve seen it- I watched this for my Good Wife blog and to fulfill my promise to watch a midseason replacement on FOX this season. Description- This is a medical drama that features different doctors, some new, and there are various problems at the hospital at times. It seems a rather complicated plot that is hard to sum up easily. It should make more sense as it goes along. Notable People- This has Matt Czuchry who used to star in The Good Wife and Gilmore girls. Pros- It points out the flaws that can happen in a hospital, but does it in a good way. It can seem more humanizing than most medical dramas that I’ve seen in the past. Cons- It seems similar to House. The lead can be strange and arrogant. Note to Parents- It airs with a content adversary warning in some episodes so that’s all you really need to know about it. Recommendation- I’d say that this is good to stay into if you want to. My Viewing Habits- I plan to watch this until the very end. Whether I’ll be able to see every episode or not remains to be seen. Prediction- It is hard to tell for sure this early, but I think that it might last a bit for now. Reception: mixed. Grade: B.
Makenzie Vega: She has been working since The Good Wife ended. Sadly, she hasn’t been doing that much. I haven’t been able to find something that I could review just yet. I hope that she ends up doing something good soon. Otherwise, I guess this will be one less person to worry about. She will be in something called Growing up Gorman.
Growing up Gorman- The name of this movie is based on a character from the movie. It has no release date or trailer just yet. The person in this wants to win a battle of the bands competition. We’ll see if it avoids being cliché or not.
Alan Cumming:
Here’s an actor who’s known for starring in Broadway plays and productions.
Perhaps you have seen him on the Tony Awards that you always watch because you
can’t afford to see Broadway any other way. It looks like he has a lot of
future projects in the works. He is in Bright in a Hollow Sky. There’s
also a new project called Run. He’s in Marlowe and Solar.
And, since he can’t possibly be doing too much at once, he will also be in My
Father’s Dragon. My father didn’t have a dragon. He’s lying to me. I’m
going to send him a nasty letter saying, “Where’s my father’s dragon? Why
didn’t he have a dragon?” Do you think that Alan’s prepared to deal with that?
One last thing that he is in for now is Abominable and the Invisible City.
Bright in a Hollow Sky: This is a movie about people trying to find what they have lost by going on a road trip to do so. It doesn’t have a release date or trailer just yet. Hopefully it can do better than other projects where nothing seems to come from it.
Run: This has no release date, but it does have a trailer. The plot is about a man who seems to have lost something important and will try to live life in a different way from this point forward. I’m guessing that running in some way will factor into the plot. It might be out, but I can’t find much information about it right now. I don’t think that it is yet.
Trailer Link: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8900306/videoplayer/vi3245521689?ref_=tt_ov_vi
Thoughts on trailer: This looks very good and interesting, although I’m not sure that I can make anything out of the plot just yet. I’ll have to see what becomes of it in the future. Whatever it is, I hope to see it and want to watch it, not just out of an obligation to doing this blog in the future.
Marlowe: This is
named after the last name of the character in the movie that this is. There is set
for release on December 2, 2022. It has no trailer just yet. It is about
a PI tasked to find a woman’s ex lover and, as usual, there is a much bigger
case that winds up going on as a result.
Solar: This is a podcast series that’s
available now. I have no idea what this is about as there isn’t a plot
of this available yet on imdb. I don’t know what else there is to say about
this at the moment. I’m unsure of how to handle podcasts in this blog and am
unsure if I want to spend time listening to one.
My Father’s
Dragon: This is set for release sometime on November 11, 2022. It is
about a person who is looking for a dragon and finds much more than expected.
Well, that seems like kind of an obvious plot, but I guess the movie might be
good. They typically are, even if they aren’t that original in some terms of
plot. There’s no trailer for this yet.
Abominable and
the Invisible City: This is set for release on October 5, 2022. It
appears to be a continuation of an already existing thing. In it, a yeti and
group of people are out to discover the world outside where they are. This has
a trailer:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0pJ1glc3zc
Thoughts on
trailer: This looks pretty good. I’m not the biggest fan of the animation style
as it looks too blocky in some places. But it seems pretty good outside of
that. I get the premise of this, although I’m unsure what movie this is
covering as I’ve never heard of it before. I guess that I’ll have to see this
and should be able to see at least the first episode of it since this is on
Peacock.
Zach Grenier: Well, he’s
finally doing things, such as being in a movie called The Vizitant.
We’ll see what else he does over the course of time while still working.
There’s nothing else worth mentioning now that I can see in this blog.
The Vizitant: This has an unknown
release date. Apparently, this movie is about a defeated politician who is
given the power to change the world by a mysterious entity. Perhaps the Monitor
is giving him the book of destiny. Whatever will happen, I hope to find out
more when there is a trailer for this. I hope for a release date soon as well.
Matthew Goode: He
has been doing a lot of projects since leaving The Good Wife. I might as well get
to mentioning all of them. A thing he appears to be doing is Medieval.
He will also be in The Offer. Another thing he will be in is Freud’s
Last Session.
Medieval: This is
out now. I don’t know if this is based on a true story or not. But it
seems like it is about two people and how they seek to win against an army of
people. They probably have people helping them with it. I’ll have to see. There
is a trailer for this:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjgi_Gn5Y_k
Thoughts on trailer: This looks like
it could be interesting and hopefully I will be able to see it sooner rather
than later. I can’t gather much from the plot, but it doesn’t look like I have
to as I’m already wanting to see more of this.
The Offer: This is available now
on Paramount+. It is about the making of The Godfather. I haven’t seen The
Godfather yet. Maybe I will some day. I wonder if one could enjoy this while
not having seen The Godfather. There is a trailer for this now:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03Z9H9mG-SI
Thoughts on trailer: This seems far
too vague a trailer for this to look any good at all. This might be good, but
the trailer clearly isn’t. I won’t know what else to say about this except that
I hope it can do justice to the iconic movie and actually be interesting. This
show does not look that interesting based on the trailer. But while I think
that the trailer is bad, I’m just not sure if the show would be.
Freud’s Last
Session: This is about Freud and C. S. Lewis doing a debate over the existence
of God. There is no release date yet or trailer. It could be good, but
I’m already having my doubts as only Christian films tend to get Christianity
right.
Cush Jumbo: She’s doing Balestra.
She will also be appearing in Criminal Record. Is that really a good
career choice? Choosing to do and have criminal record in your past? That’s a
joke, of course. It might not be that good of one, but it’s the one that I’m
sticking with for now.
Balestra: It is hard to understand
some of the plot. It has an unknown release date. It has no trailer at
the moment. From what I understand, a disgraced athlete tries to do some new
thing that allows her to extend her training hours but causes reality to blur.
Criminal Record: This is set for
release in 2023. It will be on Apple TV+. It relates to two people
fighting over a murder conviction with different factors like race involved in
the polarized nation of Britain, if that is still what the country is called.
Jeffrey Dean Morgan: He is now in the
cast of The Walking Dead. He’ll also be in The Integrity of Joseph
Chambers. I wonder what else he might do over time. He’s currently also in
a project called Fall. Another thing he’s doing is Isle of the Dead.
The Walking Dead: This is a popular gory cable zombie drama about humans trying to save themselves from what is known as The Walking Dead, or walkers, zombies who are often the bad guys. But who else are causing problems?
Review: Status- Currently on AMC at times. Why I’ve seen it- I borrowed this on DVD from a friend in order to review it for this blog. Noteworthiness- This is adapted from comic books of the same name. Description- A man wakes up from a coma to find that he now lives in a world with zombies, his old world gone. Notable People- Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who was in The Good Wife, is now on this show. Pros- It has a good premise that works for the most part. Cons- It can be too slow moving and seem longer than it needs to be. Note to Parents- I wouldn’t let your kids watch this. Teens might be safe, but I might steer clear of that too. Recommendation- Maybe this is worth watching if you like this sort of show. I’d put it at a toss-up myself as to whether or not to watch. My Viewing Habits- I plan to watch the whole first season on DVD. Whether or not I’ll see any more after that is unknown. Prediction- This is currently airing its final season. Reception: largely positive. Grade: B-.
The Integrity of Joseph Chambers: This
is out now. I have no idea what the plot would relate to or if it
relates to a true story like I think that it might, but just as easily might
not. I’ll wait to see what this might be about. There is a trailer for this
now:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rv699tusufY
Thoughts on trailer: Well, I cannot
for the lick of me make sense of this. There is a hunter and maybe some sort of
trouble that can’t be revealed on screen without it being under age restriction
perhaps? I don’t think that I’ll be upset that I probably won’t be able to see
this at all.
Fall: This
project has very little known about it thus far. I don’t know yet what type of
project this is about or even what it is about. Its DVD release date is October
18, 2022. Maybe I’ll find out more about this over time. Maybe I won’t.
There is a trailer of this that I’ll talk about in the next post. There is a
trailer for this now:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aa5MXOMN1lM
Thoughts on trailer: I wish that I
could like a movie like this. And maybe I could if I’m able to see this. But it
just looks very dumb that they pushed themselves this far and should not have
put themselves into this situation in the first place. But this could be a good
survival film and I guess we’ll see if one of the women doesn’t survive.
Isle of the Dead: This is a spin-off
of The Walking Dead focusing on Negan and other characters. It is set for
release in 2023. It is said to only be a miniseries so we’ll see if that
winds up being the case and won’t last long as a result. This has possibly been renamed to The Walking Dead: Dead City.
I’ll see what the name will be later.
Robert King: Here is where we switch
to writing credits. He and his wife are helping with The Good Fight. He’s
also doing a TV show called Evil. He’s working on another TV show called
Girls with Guns. He’s also doing Would I Lie to You? Another
thing that he is doing right now is Your Honor. And he’s doing Happy
Face. That’s a lot of projects.
The Good Fight: It will be put on www.cbs.com and be available to watch on Paramount+ to those that want it. It is available now. Expect to see the same review over and over again for whichever people work on this from The Good Wife.
Review: Status- It is
available online only at Paramount+. I’ll let you know if it is released on
DVD. Why I’ve seen it- If there is something in this blog that I can review, I
will. Description- Diane continues her adventures starting from scratch after
losing her retirement money and starting at a new firm. Pros- The show is about

would actually steer clear of this unless you really like the show. I like it,
but not enough to shell out too much money for it. Prediction- It is currently
airing its final season right now. Reception: critically acclaimed. Grade: B.
Evil: This looks like it could be
interesting. People investigate the supernatural in this show in the typical
one woman, two men set up. This is currently streaming its second season now.
We’ll see how long it might last beyond its current known run.
Evil: Status-
Currently streaming its third season. Why I’ve seen it- I watched this
to review it for a blog. Description- A woman and others have to deal with the
idea of what makes one evil and if there are supernatural abilities behind it
or not. Notable People- This is created by Robert and Michelle King who also
did The Good Wife, The Good Fight, and BrainDead. It stars Michael Emerson from
Person of Interest, Lost, and Arrow. Pros- It has a lot to offer in terms of
understanding the human mind. Cons- It might be too mysterious at some points
in the long term. I just hope they decide whether or not to include
supernatural elements for sure at some point. Note to Parents- This is probably
not something that you want your kids watching. Recommendation- I’d say that
this is pretty good to watch. My Viewing Habits- I had planned to see as much
of this as I can and have watched since the first episode aired. With it now on
streaming, I doubt that I’ll be able to watch any new episodes of this again.
Prediction- I might last if the good streaming numbers keep up. Otherwise, it
will be toast pretty soon after that. Reception: positive. Grade: B-.
Girls with Guns: Not much is known about this right now. I don’t even see a plot of this mentioned right now. What I do know is that it might air on Paramount+. It is unknown when this is coming out. I could not find out more information upon further research as I doubt google would be helpful with this.
Would I Lie to You?: In this show,
people are told stories and they have to tell reality and fiction apart. This
is currently on the CW. It airs at 8:30/7:30 Central on Saturdays.
It airs another episode right after that and reruns on Sundays as well. Enjoy
this review of it:
Would
I Lie to You?: Status- Currently on the CW at 8:30/7:30 Central on Saturdays.
It is on again right after that. Why I’ve seen it- I reviewed it for another
blog of mine and also watch a new CW show at least once. Noteworthiness- This
is an adaptation of a British show of the same name. Description- Two teams of
three discuss various stories and they have to figure out whether or not it is
a lie or the truth. Notable People- It is produced by Robert and Michelle King
who have been showrunners of The Good Wife, The Good Fight, BrainDead, and
Evil, among other things. Pros- This seems good enough to keep up with at
times. It is an acceptable form of entertainment. It is funny at times. Cons- I
know that there are problems such as this not being as funny as it could be.
The most notable problem is that the panel can be won before the first commercial
break, making the rest of the show rather worthless. Note to Parents- There
might be some issues here and there, but this is a pretty acceptable show for
kids to watch. Recommendation- Take it or leave it. It might work better if you
don’t have any plans at that time on that day of the week. But you aren’t
missing much if you don’t see it at all. My Viewing Habits- I may watch it some
here and there, but won’t care too much if I don’t see it much, if at all.
Prediction- This might last. On a network like this, it could easily keep
airing over and over again. I, personally, don’t think that it will last, but
it just as easily could so I won’t know for sure. I think that it is more
likely to fail than to last. Reception: mixed. Grade: C.
Your Honor: I forget if I mentioned
this show before but got confused by it. But this is a show that is currently
airing somewhere, even though it is on hiatus right now. It is a
courtroom drama that is renewed for season 2.
Happy Face: This is a TV show. I have
no idea what network this would air on. It has an unknown airdate right
now. In this show, we learn that a child discovers that her father is a serial
killer. This could be interesting, but it better avoid being anything like what
Prodigal Son wound up being like.
Michelle King: Since she is married to
the previous person, it would appear that she would probably have the same
projects in the works as her husband. This section may be redundant since any
similar projects that these people have would be the same thing and thus have
the same information. She is working on The Good Fight. She’s also doing
Evil and Girls with Guns. She will also be involved with Would
I Lie to You? She’s doing Your Honor as well. Yet another thing
she’s doing is Happy Face.
The Good Fight: It will be put on www.cbs.com and be available to watch on Paramount+ to those that want it. It is available now. Expect to see the same review over and over again for whichever people work on this from The Good Wife.

airing over and over again. I, personally, don’t think that it will last, but
it just as easily could so I won’t know for sure. I think that it is more
likely to fail than to last. Reception: mixed. Grade: C.
Your Honor: I forget if I mentioned
this show before but got confused by it. But this is a show that is currently
airing somewhere, even though it is on hiatus right now. It is a
courtroom drama that is renewed for season 2. This airs on Showtime.
Happy Face: This is a TV show. I have
no idea what network this would air on. It has an unknown airdate right
now. In this show, we learn that a child discovers that her father is a serial
killer. This could be interesting, but it better avoid being anything like what
Prodigal Son wound up being like.
Erica Tazel: This former Good Fight
actress has projects in the works. I look forward to seeing what I can of her
work in the future. She is in The Devil You Know. She will also be in Heart
of a Lion. And the wings of a bat/ because it’s midnight!
The Devil You Know: In this movie, a
man has to try to make things right for himself after spiraling one way and not
going back to his dark ways of the past or something like that. It is on DVD
now. There is a trailer for this now:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eb_ZpN98pg8
Thoughts on trailer: I can’t really
ever like trailers like this that are too vague while at the same time also
trying to be grandiose. The movie might be good, but I can’t really make much
of an original plot out of this and can only hope that the film is better.
Heart of a Lion: This is set for
release on March 31, 2023. It is about George Foreman. That is all that
I really know about it at this moment. There’s nothing else really to say and
talk about. I just want this paragraph to be a certain length.
Poppy Montgomery: I don’t know if she
acts less now than she used to. We’ll see what she does. She does not have any
projects in the works as of this post. Maybe this will change by a future post.
For now, there is nothing else new for this part.
Jaimie Alexander: After not being in
the third Thor movie, she will be returning for the fourth one, Thor: Love
and Thunder. It’s about time that I can finally include parts of the MCU in
this or any of my blogs. You might see me review every MCU film now at some
point, or at least the ones relevant to Thor which will include the first three
Thor movies and more than likely the first four Avengers movies. Another thing
that she will be in is The Minute You Wake up Dead.
Thor: Love and Thunder: This is in
theaters now. There isn’t much of a plot known to this yet. I have no idea
what the conflict would be based on the title. But I look forward to the film and
will now have to get a bunch of other MCU films on DVD and finally get caught
up on what I haven’t seen of the franchise at some point. There is a trailer
for this now:
Teaser link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgB1wUcmbbw
Thoughts on trailer: I would like to
know more about this than this teaser gives, so I guess I’ll have to wait until
the full fledged trailer is out sometime. From what I can understand and make
sense of the trailer, here are some key details: 1- Thor is retired, 2- The
Guardians of the Galaxy are in this but how much, for how long, and what all is
just to set up their next movie remains unknown, 3- Thor has a new love
interest? What? 4- It seems that Jane is set to be the new Thor as expected to
anyone who knew anything about this so far. And that’s about it for now.

The Minute You Wake up Dead: This
doesn’t have a trailer yet. It is expected for release sometime in 2022.
This is about a person who gets involved in scams that lead to murders. And
that’s all that I can know about it at the moment.
Enrique Murciano: He is doing The
Night Agent. Maybe there will be more in the future. He is also set to be
in Miranda’s Victim. That’s about it for now at this point in time.
We’ll see what else he will do in the future besides that.
The Night Agent: This is a planned
Netflix series. It is set for release in 2022. It does have a plot: a
person low on the FBI totem pole suddenly is thrust into a conspiracy that
leads all the way to the White House. That’s a better way of phrasing it than
the grammatically incorrect way it is currently described on imdb, which might
be a sentence fragment in the end.
Miranda’s Victim: This is the true
story of the crime that lead to Miranda rights from the side of the person he
kidnapped and raped before successfully gaslighting the country into making us
think that he was the victim. This has no release date yet or trailer.
Hugh Bonneville: This actor from
Downton Abbey will be the first of any people from that show to be covered in
this blog here. (That show is on my second list of things to watch right now,
but I have not yet been able to watch it.) Anyways, he has lots of things in
the works right now. A thing that he’s doing is Bernie’s Gift. He’ll
also be in The Amazing Maurice. And he’ll also be in I Came By.
Something else he will be in is Banking on Mr. Toad. He will be in Bank
of Dave. Another thing he’ll be in is The Gold.
Bernie’s Gift: This has no release
date or trailer right now. The plot sounds complicated from what I
understand of it online. This relates to a man recruiting two people in order
to go on an adventure of sorts relating to food and other things.
The Amazing Maurice: This is set for release
on January 6, 2023. This seems to be a take on the pied piper story from
a previously unseen cat’s perspective. I hope that they can improve on this
fucked up story that kids are told for no good reason. There is not yet a
trailer for this.
I Came By: This
is available now. The plot is about someone who does graffiti that
discovers a secret that could harm him and others. It does not sound too
original, but could be interesting. I might never know. It is a Netflix film.
There’s a trailer for this film out now that I might as well get to:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwHGegiFykU
Thoughts on
trailer: While this does seem kind of interesting, this type of trailer is
starting to seem very run of the mill and ordinary that it is hard for me to
separate it from other things that look like it. Even the exciting music seems
reused. It could be a good film, but also seems too generic at times.
Banking on Mr. Toad: This doesn’t have
a trailer yet. It is set to be out sometime in 2022. This seems like
Finding Neverland, but with a different work of fiction: Wind in the Willows.
We will learn how this book came to be while delving into the personal life of
the writer of it and his family.
Bank of Dave: This has no known plot
yet that is revealed. It has an unknown release date and also no trailer
at the time. There is a character named Dave in this so this probably will be
about him and a bank relating to him.
The Gold: This has no release date
yet. In this, we learn about Britain’s investigations into criminal activity.
There is no trailer yet and not much else to say about this. Will this be like
a documentary like Dateline or will it be a scripted series based on actual
events? That is the one thing that I’d like to know right now regarding this
show
Sullivan Stapleton: He is set to do After
the Verdict. That’s all that I can see of his for the moment. I do not know
what else he might do over time. But I have to wait and see what all else he
will do at the moment once and as it happens.
After the
Verdict: This is out now. It is about four people and their lives
relating to a high profile murder trial. I don’t yet know where this is airing
or streaming, but I do plan to watch if I can as it could be interesting.
There’s a trailer for this:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlpEJRGbW2E
Thoughts on
trailer: There is far too much in this trailer for me to keep track of all that
is going down. I don’t know if this is based off of a true story or not. I
don’t think that it is. It could be a good thing, but I won’t know much because
I probably won’t be able to see this at all. It could be good. It could be too
drawn out and boring.
Hank Steinberg: He has no projects
known in the works right now. I hope to see more from him in the future. We’ll
see if more happens or not. He might appear at some point in time in something,
but this has not happened yet.
Jessica Brown Findlay: She’s in a lot
of projects. One is called Whatever After. A second is Life after
Life. A third thing is The Hanging Sun. A fourth thing is Flatshare.
And that’s all for now. We’ll see what, if anything, becomes of all of them.
Whatever After: This has no release
date yet. It also has no plot. It is a miniseries of some sort. What else
is there for me to say about it? I’m unsure. Hopefully more about this will be
known over time. One can only hope that it will.
The Hanging Sun:
This is set for release in September 2022. In it, a hitman who is on the
run seeks refuge in a village, but there are other things going on as well. I
don’t want to just copy and paste what imbd says as I don’t think that I can.
Life after Life: Based on a book, this
TV show is about a woman who keeps dying and being reborn over and over again,
living out different lives in the end. It is out now. It airs on BBC. There
is a trailer for this. There’s not much else to talk about this.
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HC33o5XTwAQ
Thoughts on trailer: This looks like
it could be interesting. It doesn’t look much like anything stand out and you
can’t really tell that there is much different about it. But I do think that
you can tell that it might be worth watching in the end.
Flatshare: This has no plot mentioned
yet on imdb. If I had to guess, it would involve there being something like a
place where people live and some story there. But would it be a drama, comedy,
or something else entirely? It has no release date or trailer yet. This
is set to air on Paramount+ at least in the UK. There isn’t much else to
mention about it.
Marianne
Jean-Baptiste: She has acted a lot ever since Without a Trace ended. I’ll see
through time what else she appears in. She will be in Rumble Through the
Dark. She’ll also be in The Following Events are Based on a Pack of Lies.
Another thing that she is in right now is Surface.
Rumble
Through the Dark: I can’t make as much sense out of the plot even after reading
it on imbd as it seems to relate to someone trying to save the home of his
foster mother and perhaps his family too. It has no release date at this
moment.
The Following Events are Based on a
Pack of Lies: This has no release date or trailer yet. It is about
Trump’s claims regarding the 2020 election that still has yet to be proven over
a year later. I’m sorry. It’s actually about a man who is trying to destroy two
different women who are different from each other. That’s not the best way of
phrasing it though.
Surface: This is
a TV show about a woman’s suicide attempt and what lead up to that moment. It
is out now on Apple TV+. There is a trailer for this that I will talk
some about. There’s not much else to talk about besides that.
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dH3yylTyB8M
Thoughts on
trailer: While this does look like something that I’d want to see, it also
looks kind of obvious in some places. At the risk of potentially spoiling this,
I think that it is clear that the following things happened: 1- someone
kidnapped this woman then tried to kill her making it seem like she is someone
else and her whole life right now is a lie, 2- her “husband’ is clearly evil,
3- we have no idea who, if anyone, in her life, she can trust, 4- it will take
a very long time to reveal all of this in the show so enjoy everything being
very long and drawn out to get to the obvious point which I think I have and
know already.
Ukweli
Roach: I’m honestly not sure what he is currently in. Potential projects of his
that might be on TV are The Midwich Cuckoos, Wolf, and Annika. But none of them
are getting sections in this blog yet since I’m just not sure if he has a major
or long term role in any of these right now anymore.
