Are you still upset about Henry Cavill's The Witcher recast?
Henry Cavill played Geralt of Rivia in the first three seasons of the Netflix series The Witcher, but is being replaced by Liam Hemsworth for the fourth. Cavill left the series due to creative differences, and likely a little bit due to the response from audiences, but it is still upsetting to see. I am sure that Hemsworth will do a great job, but he has big shoes to fill. Despite the issues with the series, for me, Cavill was always a consistent positive thing about it. Perhaps season 4 will change my mind, but for now, everytime I think about this recast I get upset.
Did Doctor Who use the bi-generation gimmick again too quickly?
Bi-generation in Doctor Who was supposed to be very rare, and the Doctor believed it was a myth until it happened in "The Giggle." However, the Rani bi-generated in "The Interstellar Song Contest." The show implied that this was because the Time Lords were sterilized, but it was unclear exactly when this happened. I liked the idea of bi-generation, and while the new Rani was great, I felt that it undermined Anita Dobson's two-season portrayal of the character, and Mrs. Flood essentially became a goofy sidekick to her counterpart after.
What was the greenlit DC project James Gunn confirmed was just killed?
In a surprising turn of events, James Gunn has revealed that a previously greenlit DC project has just been killed, citing it as being an issue with the script, even though everyone was excited about the project. With no explicit confirmation of what it was, there are a number of projects it could be, and my bet is on Sgt. Rock. He did recently assure that pre-production on Clayface is going great, and, given the former encountered numerous hurdles with different castings and filming reschedules, I get the feeling he decided to pull the plug and start from scratch to make it work later down the line.
Are you still upset Netflix canceled Julie and the Phantoms season 2?
Every once in a while, there is a show that is canceled that I cannot stop thinking about. Julie and the Phantoms is one of those shows, and despite originally being picked up for season 2, it ended up being canceled by Netflix. With ridiculously high Rotten Tomatoes scores from both critics and audiences (93% and 98%), this seems to make no sense at all. The show was loved by many, and I still see people talking about it, even though season 1 came out four years ago. This is one of those shows that I feel could have gone on for several seasons, but alas, the studio decided against it. I am still upset about it, and am not sure I will ever fully get over it.

Liam Neeson's Naked Gun looks like one of the best comedy reboots yet.
I've always found comedies to be one of the most remade and rebooted genres of cinema, falling just behind horror, and as is the case with all remakes, it's a very hit-or-miss past of efforts. That being said, while I was already excited after the first teaser, the proper full trailer for Liam Neeson's The Naked Gun reboot/revival looks like it will be one of the genre's best yet. It looks like it's keeping its tongue planted firmly in its cheek, even as Neeson's Frank Drebin Jr. risks slipping back into Taken's Bryan Mills, and seems to have a great mix of classic gags and new jokes to make for a fun modern update on the series.

Does RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars show way too much favoritism towards certain queens?
I'm annoyed, but not surprised, at RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10. The favoritism towards queens like Jorgeous is expected, but it's frustrating me that queens like her and Ginger Minj, who have competed on the show more than once, are getting wins and praise for lackluster performances in challenges. The judging hasn't been great lately, and while these queens aren't doing terribly, I know that many viewers cannot understand the logic behind some of the comments and wins, especially when others have done better.
