New DVD release, , , , ,
Colin Farrell’s portrayal of The Penguin in Matt Reeves’ The Batman is getting his own spinoff show for HBO Max. “Though that film isn’t hitting theaters until next year, a crime procedural focused on Commissioner Gordon and the Gotham Police has already been announced for HBO Max. And now there’s a second spinoff in the mix: a Penguin-based spinoff, starring Colin Farrell, has been greenlit at HBO Max.” Read more at Inverse After a brief cameo in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Tim Roth is ready to make a splash once again in the MCU. “Tim Roth…

Josie and The Pussycats is the Spinoff Riverdale Deserves

New DVD release, , , ,
This RIVERDALE review contains spoilers. Riverdale Season 5 Episode 15 “Our story is about three young women bursting with talent.” When last we saw Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray), she was in New York City trying to make her dreams come true on the ill-fated (and gone-too-soon) Riverdale spin-off Katy Keene. Often when characters are spun-off and their subsequent shows fail, they vanish into the pop culture ether — The Ropers from Three’s Company being the textbook case of this phenomenon. But not so for Josie. This latest episode debuts a new iteration of the character, one who has achieved her…

Could a Castlevania Spinoff Star Trevor Belmont’s Son or Daughter?

Netflix, New DVD release, , , , ,
This Castlevania article contains spoilers. Castlevania season 4 may be the end of the line for Trevor Belmont, Sypha Belnades, and Alucard, but it likely won’t be the last Netflix adaptation of the long-running video game franchise. In fact, the streamer is already planning a new series set in the same universe but starring different characters. What form this Castlevania series would take remains a well-kept secret, although a reasonable guess would be that it’ll take place during a different era before or after Trevor, Sypha, and Alucard’s adventures. Konami’s prestige franchise has a timeline that spans hundreds of years,…

Every Game of Thrones Spinoff and Prequel in Development

New DVD release, , , ,
People always say the journey is more important than the destination, but don’t tell that to Game of Thrones fans. After a historic, zeitgeist-capturing run on HBO, Game of Thrones culminated in a divisive, rushed eighth season that left both fans and critics cold on the whole endeavor. This came after a 2012 poll conducted by Vulture that named Game of Thrones fans as the most devoted fanbase in popular culture. Despite all of this once noteworthy love and admiration, the impact left today from Game of Thrones feels almost like a fever dream. Read more TV Game of Thrones…

What a Walking Dead Negan Spinoff Could Look Like

New DVD release, , ,
“P.S. Negan Lives.” Those were the final words written by The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman in a letter following the conclusion of the comic’s 193rd and final issue. It was a cheeky missive to fans clamoring for confirmation that their favorite character made it through the series unscathed. It was also an acknowledgement from Kirkman that, try as he might, he just can’t seem to quit The Walking Dead’s big bad. Negan could have died at the conclusion of the comic’s major “All Out War” arc, but he didn’t. Kirkman then had him lined up to be shot and…

New DVD release, , , , ,
This Black Lightning article contains spoilers for Season 4, Episode 7. This is the final season of Black Lightning, which means the end of Jefferson Pierce’s story.

Black Lightning, Thunder, and Lightning have come a long way, but they…

Link Tank: Game of Thrones Spinoff Writer Hopes Canceled Series Will Still Happen

New DVD release, , , , , ,
The writer for one cancelled Game of Thrones spinoff is still holding out hope that the series will happen. “In a post-Game of Thrones universe, HBO is still looking for its next huge hit. Is the answer more Game of Thrones? After initially announcing plans for several spinoffs only to cancel all of them except House of the Dragon, HBO signed a new five-year deal with George R.R. Martin in late March of 2021.” Read more at Inverse. The newest Spanish-language crime thriller on Netflix, Sky High, is a lackluster heist movie not worth your time. “As you scroll through…

The Walking Dead: The “Long Runway” to the Daryl and Carol Spinoff

New DVD release, , , ,
Each of The Walking Dead season 10C’s six episodes will center around a different cast of central characters. As we saw last week, the premiere “Home Sweet Home” focused on Maggie, her new group, and the Reapers that are menacing them. Next week’s “One More” will focus on Gabriel and Aaron. Two other episodes, “Splinter” and “Here’s Negan” will focus on the railyard crew (Eugene, Yumiko, Ezekiel, and Princess) and Negan, respectively. There are, however, two characters in this six-episode run who will receive multiple centric installments. And as one would expect, it’s none other than Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus)…

Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan: What To Know Before Watching The JoJo Spinoff

New DVD release, , , , ,
Netflix has turned into a great destination to explore unique anime series, both in terms of classics as well as the next big hits. Netflix is now playing host to Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, which is a four-episode OVA (Original Video Animation) series that’s connected to the long-running JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure franchise. Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan presents four contrasting stories that form a collection of disturbing and suspenseful examinations of the human condition.  The series operates like a highly atypical animated anthology program and its compelling art design combined with the fact that it’s only four episodes long may leave…

How The Walking Dead Ending Changed the Daryl and Carol Spinoff

New DVD release, , , , ,
Ready for your surreal thought of the day? The Walking Dead recently planned to take Daryl and Carol off the series! Oh, don’t worry, we’re not going to let that one sink in too long, since said plan was connected to the now-revealed spinoff series, on which Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride will reprise their respective main series roles. However, it does reveal something rather interesting about how plans for AMC‘s developing spinoff series were altered. The Walking Dead main series showrunner Angela Kang and chief content officer Scott M. Gimple originally planned for the main series exits of Reedus’s…

Did Star Trek: Discovery Just Tease the Michelle Yeoh Section 31 Spinoff?

New DVD release, , , ,
Perhaps the crewmember of the USS Discovery who is the most out-of-place in the 32nd Century is the one person who isn’t a member of Starfleet. Michelle Yeoh’s Commander Philippa Georgiou has now changed her own status-quo twice during the run of Star Trek: Discovery. Because she’s not actually from “our” Prime Universe, this is the second time—that we know of—that she’s been yanked into a complex new reality, starkly different than the one she’s used to. And one line from Georgiou in Discovery Season 3, Episode 2, could actually establish the idea that when it comes to hopping around…

X-Files Animated Spinoff Must Be Funny, Says Chris Carter

New DVD release, , , , ,
The X-Files as we once knew it appears to be all but over after 11 seasons spanning the course of 25 years, two feature films, and numerous comics, books, and video game tie-ins. On a show where famously no one ever really dies, the prospect of another run with David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson is all but dead. That’s thoroughly disappointing for fans who were (to put it nicely) unsatisfied with the season 11 finale and series creator Chris Carter himself recently said he was “sorry” for how the series ended with a string of cliffhangers that may never get…

Will There Be a Darkwing Duck Spinoff?

New DVD release, ,
Darkwing Duck deserves a spinoff.  After several appearances in the new DuckTales series, the show has already done an immense amount of work to prove that the time for Darkwing Duck to return is now. We’ll be seeing even more evidence of that in an upcoming two-part DuckTales episode that features Darkwing Duck and the first appearance of Gosalyn in the new DuckTales continuity. With so many appearances and big special about to air, could this be the sign that there’s trouble and Darkwing Duck needs to be called in for his own spinoff? We spoke with DuckTales Executive Producer Matt…

What The Walking Dead Daryl and Carol Spinoff Will Be About

New DVD release, , , ,
Although AMC’s flagship zombie drama is in its endgame now, it hardly feels like a true ending for The Walking Dead universe. After all, the 11th and final season of the series will make way for a few other zombie projects to rise from the dead. One of these new projects is a spinoff starring Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol (Melissa McBride), two of The Walking Dead‘s most beloved characters and the only two survivors left from the show’s very first season. The untitled spinoff will once again be helmed by current Walking Dead showrunner Angela Kang, which suggests that…

The Boys Spinoff Series Ordered at Amazon

New DVD release, , ,
Not entirely unlike a certain all-powerful Vought Corporation, Amazon has decided it quite likes being in the superhero business. The streaming giant (well, everything giant) announced today that it has ordered a spinoff series based on its current dark superhero satire The Boys. This still unnamed spinoff will be set at a college created by Vought that caters exclusively to young superheroes. Per Amazon’s synopsis: “The Untitled Boys Spinoff is an irreverent, R-rated series that explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the best contracts in…

The Walking Dead: Daryl and Carol to Receive Spinoff

New DVD release, , , ,
Hey, ever notice how Daryl and Carol’s names rhyme on The Walking Dead? That’s cute, they should get a spinoff! Well, AMC agrees with that sentiment and has greenlit a spinoff series starring Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride as their characters Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier. This news comes on the heels of the announcement that The Walking Dead franchise’s flagship series will be concluding following its 11th season. But just like the shambling zombies that populate its world, The Walking Dead will continue on after death. The still unnamed Daryl and Carol spinoff will exist alongside the also-announced anthology…

As part of a massive refurbishing to both its interface and lineup, streamer CBS All Access has announced that it will claim exclusivity of the previously Nickelodeon-bound prequel series, titled Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years.

Does The 100 Need a Spinoff?

New DVD release
With “Anaconda,” The 100 has joined the pantheon of TV shows (including Supernatural, Gossip Girl, and The Office) that have introduced a backdoor pilot in the hopes that it will be greenlit to a full spinoff series. Now that we’ve re-met Bill Cadogan, his Second Dawn cult, and his family (whose clashes and burgeoning Grounder culture will be the heart of the series) we debate: Is The 100 a show that really needs a spinoff? After seven seasons, can we say “your fight is over,” or are there as many story ideas as there are symbol combinations on the Anomaly…
