Tech: How to Get Back at YouTube after They Let Trump Back on

This will be a quick post. Believe it or not, I’m trying to cut down my YouTube watching ever since the insurrectionist was let back on YouTube. But I’m a YouTuber. Is there a way to get back at the site for unbanning Trump? I would say yes. But I don’t know if giving it up or scaling back your use of it is the right choice. I will say, though, that if I can get a monetized YouTube account, that would be the best and most likely way that I can get back at the site for letting the insurrectionist back on. I would take money from them that they are legally required to give me. That’s how I want to do it. I could boycott the site at times like I have in the past. I doubt that I’d be able to. But if I can give up sites that ever promote Trump and have weird rules and exceptions for sites like facebook, then I think that I know the best option for what to do and see if I can do it or not.

Cast Update 11-11-2023

This is a complete post of this blog as much as I’m willing to do. I discovered another way of cheating with cast updates: ignoring different projects’ potential release date change and just saying it is what it was previously. I will do this in any blog that I want to going forward. Now let’s get to this complete blog post as best as I can.

 

Here’s a post putting in multiple blogs. There were both a writer’s strike and then an actor’s strike that were going on in Hollywood affecting various productions in terms of both TV shows and movies. Both of those strikes are over now so this will mean that projects can go back to normal. It will take a while, but at least the system is moving again.

 

Patricia Arquette: The main star of CSI: Cyber has future projects mentioned on imdb right now. She does a lot, or at least did in the past. We’ll see what all she will do in the future regarding shows she does. A new project that I see her as doing is Severance. Another project of hers that she is now doing is a project called Gonzo Girl.

 

Severance: This is a TV show. It is out now. The plot is about a company that is trying to take work-life balance to a new level, according to the internet movie database. That involves splitting their minds into two in a way. Here is a trailer for this now:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTqlZkvbNVg

 

Thoughts on trailer: Maybe this is the only trailer or maybe there will be more. Anyways, from what I can tell of this, it might be trying to go for something, but also doesn’t seem entirely original, even though I couldn’t tell you what else this might be like. It could be an interesting show or it could be very confusing. Are they really doing this of their own free will? It seems otherwise. I hope for more clarification later. But this could be a good show that I might never see.

 

Gonzo Girl: This is out now. It is about a struggling writer having to work as an assistant for a novelist with a reputation. This seems similar to stuff that might already exist, but could be fine outside of that. Since I’m unlikely to see it, I’m removing it from the updates because there is nothing else to say about it.

 

Peter MacNicol: I can’t find much ever, if anything, for this actor. I hope that I can avoid saying things about him in a paragraph that could easily wind up outdated forever as I’ve been known for doing. So I came up with this one until the next project he’s in. He will also be in Home Delivery.

 

Home Delivery: In this movie, apparently a fat model is expecting her first child. It might not sound too weird or whatever. There is no release date or trailer for this yet. I’ll have to see it to see if this might be good or not.

 

James Van Der Beek: There’s nothing to add for him. It’s interesting how things change. He went from having so many projects that I started cutting one project from this blog because of him and now he does not have any to cover in this blog at all.

 

Shad Moss: Since there’s no future known projects of his to keep track of for the foreseeable future, I’m going to cover one of his music videos in each of these blog posts for the next set of blog posts in this section until he does something worth covering in this blog again. I won’t do this in every blog post in case I don’t have time for it. I’ll try not to have that problem if possible.

 

Charley Koontz: He will be in something called Eat Your Heart Out. He will also be in Long December. That’s about it for now. We’ll see if he has more in the future or not. But that’s all that I can see of his at the moment in time.

 

Eat Your Heart Out: This has a release year of 2023. The plot will be a bit complicated as someone literally gave his heart away and needs to get it back in order to marry someone else. Seems strange, but I might like it. Still, it is a short and I don’t know how I’d be able to watch any of those. There’s a trailer for it now:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfJTMnCT7Ps

 

Thoughts on trailer: This looks kind of weird, but I guess that it works as an idea of what they can do with a film like this. I don’t know why a heart would be in pieces and can only hope that the cat didn’t eat any of them. I guess I’ll see if I can see what the short film is like if I’m able to see it.

 

Long December: This has no trailer at the time. It has a release year of 2023. The plot right now relates to a struggling music artist trying to succeed at what he wants to do as the year comes to an end. That’s all that I can make sense of right now regarding it.

 

Hayley Kiyoko: She’s finally doing something! She’s set to be in The Patience of Vultures. I’m not sure what that means. But I guess that I’ll find out in the future, hopefully, maybe, we’ll see… or not… At least this is something.

 

The Patience of Vultures: This has no release date or trailer just yet. It is about a man who is lured into a small town where everyone has secrets and is up to something. I swear, no one from Hollywood has ever been to a real small town. What happened to towns like Mayberry? Do they not exist in the movies? Why must small towns always be up to something?

 

Ted Danson: Surely his time off of TV means that he could be doing movies in the meantime, but we’ll see if that happens soon or not. It looks like he is doing more now that I can finally see. He is in Curb Your Enthusiasm and that’s about it for now.

 

Curb Your Enthusiasm: This is a TV show on HBO. There isn’t too much to add to this section other than the fact that I would like to see this if only to see what this is about and if it is as good as people think that it is. Ted has been on it ever since it returned.

 

Anthony E Zuiker: After all of this time wondering if the creator of one of TV’s longest running franchises is ever going to work again, I see him listed as the producer in a project. He is set to help make something called Spearfinger. And there is good news in that he will have involvement in CSI: Vegas so his franchise remains in his hands.

 

Spearfinger: This has no release date at this time. I think that it will be a movie. It is about a Native American legend regarding a woman with sharp fingers who would like to frighten people. There might need to be more to the plot than that, so we will see for sure what will happen with this project later as more information becomes available. This isn’t on imdb anymore.

 

CSI: Vegas: Not much is known or could be known about this right now other than the fact that it is going to be a new part of the CSI franchise after five years without a franchise in around the 21st anniversary of the franchise. It is on hiatus. It is pretty good in some cases.

 

CSI: Vegas: Status- Currently on hiatus. Why I’ve seen it- I’m a fan of the CSI franchise so I wanted to watch this new one as well. Noteworthiness- This is a continuation of the original CSI, largely focusing on a new team, but also bringing back people from the original team returning. Description- We return to characters from the original show solving new mysteries and dealing with potential issues of old teammates. Notable People- This has a lot of the original cast returning, including William Petersen, Jorja Fox, and Wallace Langham. It is also created by the same franchise creator as the four previous shows, Anthony E Zuiker. Pros- I felt that this was quite a good show and worth keeping up with. Cons- It can be too mysterious for its own good and also could ruin what’s previously part of the franchise. Note to Parents- Don’t let preteens watch this, but teens and older can. Recommendation- This is good and worth watching. My Viewing Habits- I plan to watch every episode about this to blog about it. Prediction- I don’t know if this is going to last now. You’d think that it would, but the main thing against it right now is whether or not it is just a short term plan in the end. It is going to last 10 episodes this season so we’ll wait to see if there will be more episodes and/or more seasons. Reception: great. Grade: B+.

Carol Mendelsohn: I will tell you about anything she is a producer of since I want to see something in these updates for her. I have no idea if there is something that she will be in, but I plan to keep track of what’s going on with her in the off chance that she does appear in something new. It turns out that she’s a producer in CSI: Vegas.

Ann Donahue: I have no idea how I missed this, but she’s in the new CSI: Vegas as well. I should have all of the main three CSI creators in this as they are all involved in some way (although, maybe not as much Anthony, which is weird), shape, or form. Still, enjoy this section on her that you’ve seen before with other people.

William Petersen: He hasn’t done much outside of CSI in the world of television or movies as far as I can tell. I think that he’s busy with stage work, the likes of which I will never see, probably. It turns out that he is still a producer of CSI: Vegas.

David Caruso: This CSI: Miami actor has done nothing in terms of acting for movies on TV since the show ended. This is because he is retired from acting. I’ll still keep him in the updates in case there is a change and he does wind up doing something notable in the future.

 

Gary Sinise: He has projects in the works like No Better Place to Die. That’s all that I seem him doing right now currently. I guess we’ll see in the future what else he might do. It could be a lot still or not that much in the end.

 

No Better Place to Die: This movie is about part of a battle during World War II. It has no release date or trailer at the moment. To date, Gary’s role is the only one that is in the movie right now and even his is just rumored so we’ll see what happens.

 

Anthony LaPaglia: I don’t know much else he could be doing as that doesn’t show up right now. Maybe he will do more or maybe not. One can only hope that he does more, but maybe he doesn’t need to. He’ll be in Antibody Heat. He’ll be in Boy Swallows Universe as well.

 

Antibody Heat: This is a comedy about the pandemic because that storyline hasn’t been done to death after production on shows resumed. Didn’t Connecting try this already? Anyways, it has no release date or trailer just yet.

 

Boy Swallows Universe: I want someone to read the plot of this on imbd and see if you can make a lick of sense out of it. It appears to have an unknown release date at this time and has no trailer. It also doesn’t seem to have Anthony in it outside of for one episode out of at least eight. But it is hard to tell for sure right now, if ever.

 

Laurence Fishburne: He’ll be in a TV movie called Rendlesham. He’ll be in another thing called Blacksmith. Yet another thing he’ll be in is Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur. More things that he is doing are John Wick Chapter 4, Sneaks, and Slingshot. He will also be in The Sterling Affairs. Other new things he will be in are Megalopolis as well as Frank & Louis. Another new group of things that he is doing are Transformers One, The Amateur, Cellar Door, The Astronaut, and The Little Bedroom. One last thing that he is in right now is The Canyon.

 

Rendlesham: This has no release date just yet. The plot relates to probably aliens in the 80s in England. I have no idea what network it might air on just yet. Hopefully, I will find out more about this in the future. We’ll see if this really is aliens or is something else entirely.

 

Blacksmith: This has a release year of 2023. In it, a man becomes a fugitive when his lab is destroyed. Hopefully, more will be revealed beyond that in the future and I hope that we’ll find out more then in the future. It could be good.

 

Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur: This is out now. It looks like it would be a kid’s show based off of these characters and would be animated. This is a Disney show, one that airs on the network and not on a streaming channel. Here’s a review:

 

Review:

 

John Wick Chapter 4: This is out now. Maybe I’ll have to do more research into this franchise now and if I’ll even be able to see the first three movies if I even like the fourth one. (Of course, I have to make sure that I don’t judge a movie too much if I haven’t seen over movies in the franchise first, as I had that issue initially with The Bourne Supremacy.)

 

Enjoy this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfGYbQ0X08I

 

Sneaks: In this animated movie, we see to see sneakers try to return to their owners. The release date is unknown. What else is there to say about this for now? I have no idea, but hope that we will see a lot more of this in the future.

 

Slingshot: This is about a mission to Saturn’s moon Titan with issues going on in the space movie. Is there any space movie that doesn’t have issues going on with it? I know that there has to be some sort of conflict. There is no release date of this yet.

 

The Sterling Affairs: This has a release year of 2023. It has no trailer just yet. It is about the downfall of Donald Sterling, owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. It feels like a lot of shows, like this one (a miniseries), are about the downfall of someone or something. It doesn’t feel like we get enough stories of people gaining good things, like the movie that exists called American Underdog.

 

Megalopolis: This has no release date yet or trailer. The plot of this relates to New York City suffering a terrible disaster and then someone wanting to rebuild it. Ted Mosby to the rescue! It better be him. Or maybe it should be the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

 

Frank & Louis: This has no release date or trailer yet. It does sound interesting and something that I’d like to see. In it, a prisoner serving a life sentence deals with people who are suffering from memory loss. The plot might get obvious from there, but it still seems like it could be a heartfelt film.

 

Transformers One: This is set for release on September 13, 2024. It doesn’t have a trailer yet. I don’t think that it is related to the live action franchise as it is instead animated. It is an origin story about the relationship between Optimus Prime and Megatron set on Cybertron.

 

The Amateur: This is set for release on November 8, 2024. It doesn’t have a trailer yet. It is about a man seeking revenge for his fiancĂ©e’s death. It sounds clichĂ©, but could be good or otherwise interesting. It’s hard to know for sure yet.

 

Cellar Door: This has an unknown release date. It doesn’t have a trailer yet. It is about a couple that move into a house, but aren’t allowed to open the cellar door. I’m guessing that this will be a horror movie as I can’t see it being anything but.

 

The Astronaut: This has no release date yet. It doesn’t have a trailer yet. It is about an astronaut who thinks that an alien has found its way to earth by following her. But if Laurence and this woman are the only known people in the cast, are they implying that black people are aliens? That’s racist!

 

The Little Bedroom: Like other things, it doesn’t have a release date or trailer. I don’t know what all there is to say about it as it basically just says that an old guy’s son sells his apartment after he is recovering so he moves in with a nurse.

 

The Canyon: This is a survival based movie that sounds interesting. It could be fun to watch as it could be each of your seat excitement. A woman is hanging from a thousand foot high ledge. There is no release date or trailer yet.

 

Melina Kanakaredes: She will be in a movie called Wake. That is all that I see her in at the moment. She has done a lot of TV roles, be it main or recurring, so I hope to see more of her in the future. Until then, I’ll report what I know of what she’s done.

 

Wake: This has an unknown release date at this moment. Its main focus is on a lie of some sort that tore people apart. Something interesting must happen beyond that. I just don’t yet know what that will be. I look forward to seeing it, hopefully.

 

Kristen Bell: She is doing a whole lot still. Let’s see if I can cover all of what’s she’s done since The Good Place ended. She will also be in a reboot of Gossip Girl. Yet another thing that I see now is called Molly and the Moon. She should also be in The People We Hate at the Wedding. She is in Zootopia+. She will also be in Frozen III and PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie.

 

Gossip Girl: This is an HBO Max reboot. I never understood the appeal of that show back then and am perfectly fine not seeing this on cable or anywhere else. I do not know if I know anyone whom I could borrow the original series from, although I will not rule that out. Also, didn’t they reveal who Gossip Girl was? Is there going to be a new person doing that in the reboot or are we just expected to forget what’s been revealed in this show already? This is streaming now.

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhsV1gPVJMQ

 

Thoughts on trailer: Well, it seems like there are some aspects that could be interesting to me, but most of this is not something that I care for. I never liked the idea of the original show, but never actually gave it a chance in the end. This seems like it is focused too much on sex and other aspects of life that I’m just not that interested in seeing on this show that I wouldn’t care to watch anyways. It’s a good thing, then, that I won’t be able to see it.

 

Enjoy this review of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPQ4nuIe0ck

 

Molly and the Moon: This has a currently unknown release date. It is said to be a musical and appears to be written by the creators of How I Met Your Mother. (Do people still like them after they ended that show?) There is no known plot of this at the time. Maybe it will be a movie, but could be something else. Too much of this on imdb is vague right now.

 

The People We Hate at the Wedding: The title explains a lot of this as a family has conflict leading up to a wedding. I don’t think that there’s much else that one could say about that. It is out now on Prime video. I have seen it and will review it at some point.

 

Review:

 

Zootopia+: I don’t know yet if she will appear in more than one episode of this. What I do know is that this is a continuation of the movie of the same name (- the +). It is out now. I don’t know if I’ll be able to see it then or not.

 

Catch up on the Zootopia movie by watching this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERMgSbeGsnw

 

Counterpoint to the previous video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9c8MOD9bzFw

 

Frozen III: This has no known plot at the time other than being the third installment of the Frozen franchise. It is set for release in 2025. There is no trailer for this yet so I’ll have to wait to see it to maybe figure out what it will be like…

 

PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie: This is in theaters now. This is about the PAW Patrol getting superpowers after a meteor crashes into the city. I have no seen the show or previous movie yet. There is a trailer for this:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDgjJ9XzgHk

 

Thoughts on trailer: This could be interesting or could also be clichĂ©. I have no idea how good or bad something like this would be until I see it. I will say that it looks fairly good for someone like me who hasn’t seen the show as it could stand alone with it.

 

Marg Helgenberger: One of the benefits to missing stuff in the updates is that she was going to be in a pilot that was not picked up so I won’t have to waste time putting any of that in the blog and then taking it back out again. She will be returning for more of All Rise. She’s set to be in CSI: Vegas now.

 

CSI: Vegas: Not much is known or could be known about this right now other than the fact that it is going to be a new part of the CSI franchise after five years without a franchise in around the 21st anniversary of the franchise. It is on hiatus. It is pretty good in some cases.

 

CSI: Vegas: Status- Currently on hiatus. Why I’ve seen it- I’m a fan of the CSI franchise so I wanted to watch this new one as well. Noteworthiness- This is a continuation of the original CSI, largely focusing on a new team, but also bringing back people from the original team returning.

You’d think that it would, but the main thing against it right now is whether or not it is just a short term plan in the end. It is going to last 10 episodes this season so we’ll wait to see if there will be more episodes and/or more seasons. Reception: great. Grade: B+.

Rory Cochrane: It looks like he will appear in projects in the future. Something he is doing is King Ivory. I have no idea what else he might do in the future as of yet. At least this is something, even though the less people do (especially in this blog) means the less that I have to cover.

 

King Ivory: This is set for release on September 30, 2024. It is about drug running involving fentanyl and may or may not be a documentary. There is no trailer for this yet so I’ll wait to find out how interesting this is. I doubt that I will like it since I hate seeing things depicting drug running.

 

Carmine Giovinazzo: He is now doing a project called Un$uited. Hopefully I’ll see more of what he’s doing in the future. That’s all that I see him doing at the moment in time. Maybe he’ll do more or maybe he won’t. I’ll have to wait and see.

 

Un$uited: This is a show about someone who wants to become a professional poker player before finding out just how much he sucks at it. It has no release date yet or trailer. I don’t know what network or streaming service this will be on.

 

Eric Close: He is set to be in Inventors. And that’s it for now. I hope to find out more about what all he is doing in the future as time goes by. In the mean time, I’ll have to figure out what all to say in each different paragraph so it will be at least three lines long on my computer.

 

Inventors: This doesn’t have a release date yet. But it does have a plot: an investor who cares too much about winning that he might lose more than just whatever the investments relate to. We’ll see if this is predictable or not. There is a trailer for this now:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0mS31WkhiQ

 

Thoughts on trailer: Well, this looks incredibly stupid. I can’t see much happening in this. None of it seems good or interesting in any way. The song in the background is to repetitive. The song in the background is to repetitive. At least I know this isn’t Investors anymore.

 

William Jackson Harper: He is doing something called Dogs in Space. He is in The Resort. Two more things that he will be in are Jodie and A Man in Full. He is in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. That’s it for now.

 

Dogs in Space: This is a TV show. It is available now. The plot of it relates to genetically enhanced dogs trying to find a new planet called home. It is a kid’s show that is animated. I wonder what lessons there will be to learn from it.

 

First episode link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4UqQc9Uz0U

 

Review: Show Description- Dogs are sent into space to find a new home for humans to live on. Behind the Scenes- This is a Netflix show. It stars William Jackson Harper from The Electric Company and The Good Place. My Thoughts- This is interesting and well done. It puts a lot of detail into world building and character development. I will admit, though, that it can seem cliché and a bit predictable in some places. Still, I give this four stars out of five. Long Term Prospects- I have no idea if this will last or not. Where to Find- This is a Netflix show, although the first episode is for free on YouTube as linked above

 

The Resort: This relates to crime and a conspiracy to it relating to love. It is out now. This is on Peacock and is awaiting a potential review by me. Sorry that I haven’t been trying better to get this watched. I am considering it too late to watch a trailer for this anymore.

 

Review: Show Description- While celebrating her 10th anniversary, a woman finds a phone that could be the key to solving an old missing persons case that we also see in the past. Behind the Scenes- This has William Jackson Harper from The Electric Company and The Good Place. My Thoughts- It is quite interesting and intriguing. It does run the risk of being drawn out, even for a short season streaming show. But the show seems great. I give it four out of five stars. Long Term Prospects- This might already be over, but it is hard to tell for sure since shows can be gone a long time on a streaming network and yet come back for another season in the end. Where to Find- This is streaming on Peacock

 

Jodie: This is a spin-off of the show Daria, of which I know little about. It does not have much of a plot beyond that right now. It has no release date at this moment. I guess that I will have to find out more about this later.

 

A Man in Full: The plot of this relates to a mogul facing a bankruptcy and defending his empire. There’s not much else to say about this until a trailer is released. There is set for release in 2023. I guess that I’ll have to see that in the future, if it gets made.

 

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania: This movie is on DVD now. It is about the characters of the Ant-Man universe exploring the quantum realm and see what all might be possible. What will happen? I’ll see at some point…

Simone Missick: She will be in a project called Hanging by a Thread. All Rise was picked up for a third season by OWN after all. I’m still including her in the updates for now, but plan to skip All Rise in the rotation of new people added to this blog (outside of confirmed former cast members and maybe the original showrunner) to avoid confusion until it ends for real in the future.

 

Hanging by a Thread: This has no release date or trailer yet. It is about a bipolar man who wants to enforce his medicine free ways on his nephew who is also bipolar. This seems like it could have a lesson or just be really strange. Hopefully the lesson is not what the uncle wants to have happen. This is gone from imdb so it either isn’t moving forward as a project or doesn’t have Simone Missick in it anymore. I’ll see if that changes or not.

 

Gary Dourdan: He is doing a lot of projects. One of them is Zero. A second is The Lost Princess. A third thing that he’s doing is The Moderator. A fourth thing that he is doing is Thebes. A fifth thing that he is doing is Mnemonix. A sixth thing that he is doing is Desdemona’s Revenge. A seventh thing that he is doing is Bonecrackers. An eighth thing is The Forfeiture Clause. That’s all of his for now.

 

Thebes: This is a movie about a detective looking for a missing teen from a small town and learns that there are dark secrets there and she’ll have to face her past in some way. Now while this sounds interesting, it also sounds like the plot for plenty of other movies that already exist. This has no release date or trailer yet.

 

Mnemonix: It is about a virus that killed half of human life while also creating a new form of life as well. It is set for release on December 22, 2024. It could be interesting, even with the unoriginal elements to it based on what is out already.

 

Desdemona’s Revenge: Not surprisingly, this has no release date yet. It also had no trailer at this moment either. It is about a pair of thieves and the people chasing them with the plot on imbd possibly spoiling the entirety of this short.

 

Bonecrackers: The plot appears to be about a crime family of sorts. It has no release date yet nor does it have a trailer. I can’t tell what all to make out about this without going too much into the potential plot. But expect a lot of deception going on with the characters.

 

Zero: It doesn’t have a release date yet. It does not have a trailer, but it does sound very interesting. People have ten hours to find out why they have bombs attached to themselves. It could be an interesting thriller. I hope to see sometime.

 

The Lost Princess: This movie is about a person who is transported to the past through a vision and then leaves to find out about his past. This has no trailer yet. Its release date is currently unknown. I hope to find out more about this over time.

 

The Moderator: This is an Amazon Prime movie about a Russian blogger who wants to get revenge on the murder of her two friends. It is out already. I hope to be able to see it at some point sooner rather than later. But with my inability to see movies that I don’t already have and have watched already, I’m unsure when I’ll see it. There is a trailer for this that I will talk about:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHb-u7KvIZA

 

Thoughts on trailer: This seems like it could be an interesting film even if it goes into the whole revenge thing a bit too hard and who knows what else. Are the cops the good guys even when this woman is the protagonist and not good herself? It’s hard to know for sure. Whether or not I will see this or remove this again from the updates is unknown.

 

The Forfeiture Clause: This has a release date of March 15, 2024. It does not have a trailer yet. It might be a horror movie that says to be inspired by true events. We’ll see just how similar to that it might wind up being. Basically, newlyweds have a great place to live, but learn of something sinister that threatens them as it would.

 

Sofia Milos: I’ll have to see what else she might do in the future. I look forward to covering what all she is doing next. She is set to appear in Astoria. That’s about it for her for now. But at least that’s something. She could be doing more.

 

Astoria: This has no release date yet nor trailer. Set in part of Queens, it is about crime families dealing with drug running. I don’t think that I will like this and am better off without this. I don’t want to see shows or movies about drug running.

 

Vanessa Ferlito: She is currently set to be in Griselda. It is nice to finally see her now mentioned in something else since she hadn’t done anything for a while. So I guess we’ll see what becomes of this new project of hers. She will also be in How to be a Bookie.

 

Griselda: This has a release date of January 25, 2024. It does have a plot: Griselda Blanco created a profitable cartel. This would only be worth more of a story if this were true. Otherwise, it just sounds like bare elements of Breaking Bad but with a female lead (although it sounds very far from ripping that show off). Still, it can be hard sometimes to watch shows about criminals as I don’t like seeing terrible characters on TV. There is a trailer for this now:

Thoughts on trailer:

 

How to be a Bookie: This has a release date of November 30, 2023. It is a TV show about a bookie struggling with different things in life. I need to find out more what a bookie is to better understand what this would be about. It has a trailer:

 

Trailer link:

 

Thoughts on trailer:

 

Roselyn Sánchez: She is starring in Gringa. Another thing that she’s currently in is ‘Til Jail Do Us Part. Those are the only things that I see of her right now. She has also appeared at times on Home Economics. That’s about it.

 

Gringa: It is a father and daughter coming of age comedy drama. I don’t know much about it. While there is a trailer for this, I won’t cover it. It is now. It might be on Prime Video. If it is not, I’ll remove it from the updates. Otherwise, I will plan to see it and review it sometime.

 

‘Til Jail Do Us Part: This is a TV series that sounds quite interesting. It is about a group of women who have to deal with their husbands all being arrested for potentially being in the same criminal organization. It is now available to watch on Peacock.

 

Review: Status- Currently on Peacock. Why I’ve seen it- I wanted to review it for this blog. Description- Women who are rich friends have to deal with their husbands being arrested and other issues. Notable People- Roselyn Sánchez, from Without a Trace and Fantasy Island, is one of the characters. Pros- It is Hispanic lead. Cons- This show was pretty dumb and didn’t have much to it. You couldn’t gather much from the pilot as there wasn’t much to keep you coming back to this later. Note to Parents- This was rated TV Mature for language, sexual situations, and other things. Recommendation- Don’t spend your time on this show. My Viewing Habits- I watched the first episode and wouldn’t see more of this if I could. Prediction- This won’t last. I’m not sure of any Peacock show lasting. Reception: good. Grade: F.

 

Jameela Jamil: There are four things that she’s currently in right now. The first is DC League of Super-Pets. The second is She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. The third is Elio. The fourth is Safe Space. There are no others right now.

 

DC League of Super-Pets: This is on DVD now. It is about Krypto the Super-Dog having to save his master Superman after Superman was kidnapped. Is there a rule that all Illumination Films have to use the exact same animation style?

 

Enjoy this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yrXm3RaBWg

 

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law: This is available now. The plot is that a woman, namely Jennifer Walters, gets Hulk like powers. Who is Jennifer Walters? I guess that I’ll have to find out or see The Hulk movie that I still haven’t seen yet if that even explains. There is a trailer for this now:

 

Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gim2kprjL50

 

Thoughts on trailer: It seems like it could be a better trailer and look better than what it could be in the trailer. Maybe it will be good. I won’t know unless I wind up with Disney+ again or otherwise see this sometime. I have no idea what is with the sexist line about all women being angry. I also have no idea what’s wrong with dating in your 30s. And must there be hints about sex in this? I feel like putting a woman protagonist in any sexual situation seeks to take away from her potential power.

 

Elio: This is a Disney/Pixar film set to be released on March 1, 2024. It is about a kid who is chosen by aliens to be Earth’s ambassador while his mother tries to decode the messages that are going on. I guess that we’ll see what happens and if this is different than things like it.

 

Audrey Corsa: She is currently in Dear Edward. There’s not much that I can say about her work other than that. Maybe more will happen in the future, but it is fine with me if there isn’t because then there is less that I have to deal with updating as a result.

 

Dear Edward: This is out now on Apple TV+. This is a TV show where a boy loses his family in a plane crash and how various lives are affected as a result. I don’t know what network this will air on, but am expecting this to be on streaming given its low episode count for a first season. I’m unsure if I’ll be able to see it or not.

 

George Eads: He hasn’t done much since leaving MacGyver. He may just not want to act as much anymore, although it can be hard to tell sometimes from people to people why they aren’t in much and how much of that is by choice.

 

Jonathan Togo: The last thing he acted in was a Christmas TV movie back in 2018. There has been nothing else that he has done since then that I can see. I guess this leaves me with one less person to keep track of while also including more people in this blog.

 

Hill Harper: He has been a regular in the show The Good Doctor since it first started. He is also set to be in Junction and The Requiem Boogie. That’s all that I see him doing for now. He might do more in the future or not.

 

The Good Doctor: This show has been on ABC for over 100 episodes so far. I like it a lot, even if it goes beyond what it should sometimes in making medical sense. Anyways, if you want to know more about the show, read this review:

 

The Good Doctor: Status- Currently on hiatus. Why I’ve seen it- It looked like a pretty good show to me. Noteworthiness- This is an adaptation of a South Korean show. Description- A young doctor with autism starts working with other doctors and has to overcome stigma. Notable People- Hill Harper, from CSI: New York, stars on this show as well. David Shore, the creator of House, is also the creator of this show as well. Pros- This is wonderful with well written characters, plots, and overall believable medical situations. Cons- Not all the characters are nice people. I know that happens a lot and it can be needed at times, but it can still be a problem. Note to Parents- This is mostly acceptable for kids, but there are some problems with it in terms of what age can watch. I’d say that pre-teens and older should be good with this. Recommendation- I think that everyone should watch this. My Viewing Habits- I know that I have not seen every episode, but I have watched this as much as I can over the course of time and have been a fan of this from the first episode. I missed this show for a while due to work commitments. Prediction- This is getting good ratings for now so it will stay for as long as that lasts. Reception: mixed to positive. Grade: A+.

 

Junction: This is a movie that I’m guessing it made up that is talking about the opioid crisis from the perspectives of a pharmaceutical company CEO, a doctor, and a patient. It has no trailer yet and has a release date of January 26, 2024.

 

The Requiem Boogie: This has no release date or trailer yet. The plot of this on imdb needs to be improved. From what I understand of this, a star is trying to mourn the loss of his famous father, but people just want to make a reunion show instead. Could this even be a good thing in the end? I don’t know about that.

 

D’Arcy Carden: She is also in the as of yet unreviewed (by me) The People We Hate at the Wedding, which won’t even get its own section later here, but will up there. I can’t tell what TV shows she might be in that are worth mentioning right now. But of stuff that is mentioned as still upcoming, she’s set to be in Rhona Who Lives by the River.

 

Rhona Who Lives by the River: This is set for release in 2023. It does not have a trailer yet. It is about a girl with a dull life who receives the ability to make her wishes come true. I’m guess that life lessons will be learned from this.

 

Reggie Lee: He is in Under the Bridge. He’s not in anything else at the moment, but could be in the future if more is seen in the future. I hope that something will be seen in this actor’s future, but I guess that we’ll have to wait and see what all could be there or not.

 

Under the Bridge: This is about a surgeon having to save her practice and marriage after a scandal rocks the place where she works with her friends. This could be interesting and good. I guess we’ll have to see. This has no release date.

 

Robert David Hall: Aaah! Roach! That is the movie that he is set to appear in. I’m not just saying something random. At least I’m not yelling it by writing it all in caps. I just hope to get some sense of what it is at some point in time.

 

Aaah! Roach!: In this movie, man eating cockroaches cause the disappearance of people at a college. It has no release date or trailer yet. I don’t know if I would like this if I’m able to see it at some point. I’m not expecting it to be outstanding as it might be campy on purpose.

 

Megalyn Echikunwoke: All that she is in for now is The Golden Door. I don’t see anything else for her right now so that’s all that there is worth keeping track of at the moment, which is fine by me as it means that there is less to keep track of.

 

The Golden Door: This has no release date, trailer, or even plot just now. It is a thriller and that’s about all that I know about it for now. What could it mean or be about? I just hope that we find out sooner than later so I know whether or not to watch it.

 

Former projects: In this section, I will keep track of shows that people in this blog used to be mentioned in as doing in some way. I might keep track of other things too. This will be used to keep track of what shows might still be on even after someone has left it in some way. Dancing with the Stars is one of these shows. Since Shad Moss’s time in it is over, I’m including The Masked Singer in this part as well.

 

Dancing with the Stars- This is currently on ABC at 8/7 Central on Tuesdays. I watched it at least once to see what it’s like and because James Van Der Beak was on it. This is a reality competition show where professional dancers team up with celebrities of sorts.

 

Review: Status- Currently on ABC at 8/7 Central on Tuesdays. Why I’ve seen it- I watched it since James Van Der Beek was in a season of it. Description- Celebrities team up with professional dancers to compete on a live show. Notable People- Carrie Ann Inaba, who was on The Talk, is a judge on the show. Pros- It can be better and more interesting than one might think, giving its genre. Cons- Too much time is wasted on this show due to set up to dances and other competitions. Note to Parents- Outside of sometimes inappropriate outfits, there might not be too much bad in the show, although you’d have to watch for yourself. Recommendation- This isn’t too bad, but isn’t outstanding either. The main reason why one wouldn’t want to watch it would be time commitment to other things. Prediction- This will probably keep lasting. Reception: good. Grade: B-.

 

The Masked Singer: I knew it was only a matter of time before someone that I covered in one of the cast updates was on this show. Thus, I’m going to include a review here. If I had to guess that anyone from any show I do cast updates of was going to appear on this show, I knew that it would probably be Shad Moss before it would be anyone else.

 

The Masked Singer review: Status- Currently on Wednesdays at 8/7 Central on FOX. Why I’ve seen it- It turns out that Shad Moss, whose career I follow for a blog, was on the show so I watched it to see what it was like. Noteworthiness- This is adapted from a South Korean show and is the first non Asian adaptation of the show. Description- Different celebrities in masks compete on a singing show where the loser gets unmasked. While all get unmasked at some point, the winner goes the longest without this fate. Notable People- Ken Jeong, from Community and Dr. Ken, is a judge on the show. Pros- This doesn’t have as bad a voting problem as other reality competition shows since what we see is always pretaped. Even if they aren’t professional singers, they can still be good. Cons- Some have complained that the results of voting is too random and can eliminate great professional singers from the game. Too much of this seems wasted on the banter between the judges and host or trying to guess the identities of the singers. We do not hear much, if any, criticism of bad singers or performances. Note to Parents- I haven’t seen enough of this to know if it is bad, but my guess is that this is something the whole family could watch. Recommendation- Don’t bother with this. My Viewing Habits- I saw this once in the third season before watching it a lot again in the fourth and fifth season. I don’t know yet if I will see it again due to scheduling conflicts. I probably won’t watch it again since someone was on it that I didn’t like at all to the point of wanting to give the show up forever as a result. Prediction- This will probably last quite a while since it is said to be the most watched show now. Reception: somewhat mixed. Grade: D.

 

Since it is fun to keep track of the shows in the franchise, I thought that I would share the full theme songs as lyric videos of the songs by The Who that became theme songs from the show. Since we could never hear these songs in their entirety on the TV shows themselves, then it only makes sense for me to share these songs now.
