Inhumans Is A Total Calamity, A Nightmare For Comic Book Fans And General Viewers Alike
Tuesday, November 15, 2016
OK, How About We Get All Of The Details Straight On The Inhumans Becoming An ABC TV Series That'll Air Right After The Middle, Shall We?
I'm not as familiar with The Inhumans via their comic book appearances as I am with numerous other Marvel comic book characters, but they are the kind of overtly stylized science-fiction nonsense I can groove on rather easily. I mean, the Royal Family of Inhumans contains a guy who can't speak lest he his vocals destroy entire planets, a woman whose hair can tear enemies apart, a fish person and a gigantic teleporting bulldog. When it was announced this Royal Family would be headlining a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie to be released in November 2018, well, I was happy as clam.

The State Of Marvels Television Shows
There's been a large amount of rumors swirling around Marvel Television this week, with Heroic Hollywood running an article surrounding a large amount of rumors of what's in development at Marvel Television. Some of it, mainly stuff that isn't Hulk prequel program, sounds cool (although I don't want Ms. Marvel to just get her own show...I'd also like her to be the lead of the Inhumans movie!), but it did get me thinking about the overall state of three current Marvel Television shows. Those programs are Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Agent Carter and Daredevi, all of which I'll discuss in great detail below!

The First Trailer For ABC's New Muppet Show Is Here!!
I loved the 2011 Muppets (I still stand by my opinion that it was the best film of that year), but Muppets Most Wanted was a much more heavily flawed, if still mostly entertaining film that sputtered at the box office. Luckily, this has given these assorted Jim Henson creations the chance to go back to TV with a new show on ABC this fall, which just debuted its first trailer, which you can watch below!

Agents of SHIELD Is Getting A Spin-Off!
On the eve of the debut of Marvel's third television show, Daredevil, it appears the studio is making moves on a new TV show. Entertainment Weekly has the exclusive scoop that some kind of spin-off of Agents of SHIELD is in development, though they don't know who the program would center on or an exact release date.

Melissa Benoist Will Star In Supergirl TV Show From The Makers Of Arrow
The DC Television Universe, which currently consists of Arrow and The Flash, is set to expand with Supergirl this fall, a new TV show that focuses on (SPOILER ALERT) Supergirl. She's a hero from Superman's human-resembling alien species who has similar powers (namely super strength and flying) to the Man Of Steel. There's been a massive hunt for the actress to play the hero, and now Melissa Benoist will be leading the program.

Agent Carter Review
As the Marvel Cinematic Universe expands further outwards, out to the likes of Ant-Man, Doctor Strange and the Netflix Defenders, it's interesting to see a more grounded character like Peggy Carter get the spotlight. Now, the world she inhabits in the show is far from grounded, which is a great thing, but she's certainly inhabiting a more down-to-Earth realm of espionage that makes her quite engaging as a lead character.

Marvel's Winter/Spring 2015 TV Shows Have Airdates!
2015 will be a monumental year for Marvel Studios. The company is concluding the second phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with their features The Avengers: Age Of Ultron and Ant-Man, while also launching a series of shows on Netflix that start next year with Daredevil and Jessica Jones. Plus, I'm hoping the Marvel One-Shots make a triumphant return of some kind. But let's not forget about their TV offerings on ABC, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and forthcoming miniseries Agent Carter!

Editorial: The Evolution Of Television Has Only Begun
Yesterday, the inevitable announcement arrived; HBO Go would be released as its own separate service. No other details were released, but presumably a monthly payment for HBO Go would get you all kinds of big movies and TV shows like Game of Thrones or Girls on your mobile devices. Many had been awaiting this day for ages, but it still managed to be the gauntlet being thrown down in terms of the future of television. The dominance of Netflix now full recognized, corporations are now realizing that way of consuming entertainment is no fad. The only way they can survive is to adapt.

Agents Of SHIELD: 5 Things I Like, 5 Things I Want Changed (The List!!!)
Spoilers for the first season of Agents of SHIELD, as well as Captain America: The Winter Soldier follow.
Agents of SHIELD sure was a peculiar beast last season wasn't it? It entered the 2013-2014 Fall TV season with massive amounts of hype and debuting to gargantuan ratings. But ratings soon stabilized, and it wasn't hard to see why; moderately entertaining episodes started the show off, but soon the program became boring, infuriating and just plain dumb. Thankfully, the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier helped boost some energy into the show, and the episodes that followed that movie got progressively better and better, to the point where the season finale was a fantastic creation.
Still, the second season, which debuts on ABC this Tuesday, has a lot to do to prove that that season finale was no fluke. But I also don't want to be too much of a negative Nelly. So I've compiled a list of five things I do like about the show, but five things that need improving, stat!
