@KidBoruto I could be wrong but I did get a bit of a Quantum Leap-vibe from the Loki trailer... you maybe too young to remember QL but back in the late 80’s - mid 90’s it was one of the only sci-fi shows on TV and was pretty good for the time.

Yeah, as a big Cap fan The Falcon and The Winter Soldier is also one I’m looking forward too and what with Wanda-Vision setting up Spider-man 3 and Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness, it all sounds very exciting.

The What If animated show looks great too.

I vaguely remember watching some reruns with my Mom, but I was too little to recall any details. That being said, big sci-fi fan. I love Stargate, Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly, Alien etc.

2021 gonna be a great year for Marvel fans hopefully!

Ahh, Battlestar and Firefly... I can see that you are my kind of Burrito... sorry Boruto 😜

Cobra Kai season 3 is off to a good start! I love this show, which was quite unexpected when I started to watch it last year.

Colour me surprised. Having not watched the last season of Doctor Who I kinda went in expecting to not like it... Have to admit that New Year episode of Doctor who was not terrible. Dare I say the best episode I've seen with the new cast?

Granted Captain Jack being in it did quite a fair bit for me and my enjoyment... But fairly decent perfomances all around. I still don't think Bradley Walsh was any good so I'm glad to see him gone.

John Bishop as the new assistant? That did throw me for a loop though

Well Doctor Who wasn’t terrible! It was nice having Chris Noth back and especially nice to see Captain Jack. The story was a typical Dalek one, nothing new but executed fairly well. Christ knows what’s going on with the whole Gallifrey thing though, I have no idea what that’s all about. Not sure about the new companion reveal though, in case anyone hasn’t seen it, it’s John Bishop but yeah, not a patch on Bradley Walsh. They’ve done dramatic acting before though and were alright so we’ll see how it goes.

It’s Earnest Borgnine... I should really have used a picture of Robert Duvall as Colonel Kilgore in Apocalypse Now but I was lazy. That and the fact I just love Earnest Borgnine’s face for some strange reason.

@colonelkilgore I’m ashamed to say that out of Ernest Borgnine’s long and varied career, I only really know him as Mermaid Man from SpongeBob 😂

I never really paid much attention to Spongebob as I was probably already deep into my twenties by the time he surfaced. Having said that, I will definitely try and check some of it out now that I know Borgnine is in it in some capacity.

@JohnnyShoulder Man, just finished the 3rd season of Cobra Kai and I just wasn’t feelin’ it. I thought it really dropped off this season. It made up for it at the end and the last two episodes salvaged things somewhat, but I was disappointed after enjoying the first two seasons.
I feel like they got fairly lazy with the writing. They relied too much on dropping all the cameo appearances from the movies. It was cool and all, but the plot fell apart.
Hopefully they pick it back up for season 4.

@Th3solution Sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy season 3 of Cobra Kai as much as the previous ones. I'm only a couple of episodes in, so we shall see.

@JohnnyShoulder Ok, I figured that might be the case, so even my spoiler tagged comment was vague. Sorry, didn’t mean to ruin anything for you. The early episodes are better, then it’s spotty as far as quality thereafter, imo.

@Th3solution No worries man, you haven't spoiled it for me. I can make my own mind up and we can't all like the same things.

Reports are coming in that Jodie Whittaker has quit as Doctor Who. Obviously it’s not known yet but still, I’m not sure it really surprises me. I’ve not loved her run but that’s absolutely down to the showrunner and writers and not her take on the Doctor. Twitter’s mostly just full of dudes rejoicing and calling the recent episodes ‘PC nonsense’ so yeah, part of me would prefer her stay in the role just to annoy them 😂

I finally finished binge watching the rest of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina...I'm bitter about the ending and sad to see the series go.

However it was nice to see 3 of the characters from the ABC sitcom have cameos in Season 4.

@RogerRoger I can’t believe she’s done the same amount of series as the others. That honestly doesn’t feel right.

@RogerRoger Are her episodes not all on iPlayer? Although I’m not sure if you need a TV license to watch that.

Just finished season 6 of Bosch (love it, it’s like a mini The Wire reunion... nowhere near as good but still good) and season 1 of Queen of the South... not my favourite show about the Cartels but decent.
