Watched The Outpost last night. Jesus, that was nonsense. Maybe I’ll watch episode 3 next week. Who knows? That is all.

Been watching iZombie on Netflix. It]s fun, a little light-headed in places, but watchable at the end of the day. Apparently, it shifts gear a bit in series 3 or 4. A bit surprised SyFy or similar hasn’t screened it here. They’re making a final fifth series.

Yeah, S4 goes off in a weird direction. Still very watchable, just a little bit weirder than the rest.

It does explain a line in the SyFy trailer for Stitchers that mentioned not needing to eat brains. Stitchers (which I haven’t watched) seems to involve dropping the consciousness of a deceased person into someone else so that the death can be explored. In iZombie, Liv eats brains and gets the personality of the brain, as well as visions of that person’t past and inevitable demise. Crime solving ensues.

Grizzy and the Lemmings. One of the very few cartoons that is funny for children and adults. Here's an example dealing with the dangers of drone deliveries (7 min).

just about finished S4 of iZombie - its good (and a bit darker than previous series)
Enjoyed Stitchers but not as much

Just started S3 of iZombie - it’s changing a bit already now that more people know about Liv’s identity. Some of the names are poor quality puns. Fillmore Graves?! Ha!

I’ve not watched Stitchers. The trailer didn’t appeal, and based on recent experience, SyFy seems to be overselling their new programmes rather too much.

Fun fact: iZombie lead Rose McIver was in an episode of Xena: Warrior Princess when she was obviously much younger. It was a body swap episode, so she got to be Xena for a while.

One thing you will notice is that the effect on brains Liv gets much more pronounced in that it almost totally takes over her personality

Haven't seen a second of it. I remember reading the promo stuff before it aired and it sounded wee bit too silly for me.

Still, nice of you to generalise. :P

Based very, very loosely. The premise comes from the iZombie comic, but that’s about where it ends. In the comic, the protagonist works in a funeral home. In the TV series, she’s in the police morgue, and so on. I think pretty much all that’s remained is the title and the artwork in the credits and the ad breaks which are done by the original comic artist.

It‘s silly, yeah, but I find it fun.

Luke Cage has been cancelled. That leaves three other Marvel/Netflix shows currently on the go.
One of which has just started S3 and as far as I know the other two are mid-production, so at least one other outing for each of those.
I guess now Luke and Danny are at a loose end, we could get that Heroes for Hire show.
Then of course there's always the Daughters of the Dragon.

I saw Daredevil S3 E4 last night (I'll be watching more later tonight) but not to give away any spoilers, even though I know people tend to dive right in with the Netflix/Marvel shows, but that fight sequence!
And it was all done in one take.
Phenomenal stuff.

Hello everyone.
Apparently Season 3 of The Expanse will stream on Amazon from November 15th.
Which has been a long wait.
