Sabrina trailer.

So I've been watching Wynonna Earp, and I got partway into Season 2 and gave up after I had the sudden realization: I'm just burned-out on horror at this point.

I do like the look of Sabrina, though. Maybe if Sabrina is just spooky and not gory I could enjoy it? I don't know.

Hey. New board.

My wife and I just watched Sisters on Netflix and found it pretty enjoyable! Has that summer-indie-movie-drama-comedy vibe. Recommend.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Wynonna Earp is horror? Huh. I thought it was a Western.

Wynonna Earp is horror? Huh. I thought it was a Western.

It's a horror series set in the US west, with some Western motifs.

'Avatar: The Last Airbender' Live-Action Series In Works At Netflix

Bryke are involved, but still, MEH.

Hey. New board.

I could see it working.

It is a tragedy that I have yet to convince Calvin to watch Avatar with me. He is 6! It should work!

Gris, you could try the new Netflix show by some of the same people, The Dragon Prince...

Hey. New board.

I will! He is currently on a Lego Or Bust stage but maybe.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Yeah, I don't know how you can manage the scope of A:TLA on a TV budget.

Beyond that, I'd much rather see new stories in that universe than retreads.

What is even happening?

I originally posted this in the comedy thread, because we were talking about The Good Place and Kristen Bell, but it is a better fit here. The Veronica Mars series revival is a go at Hulu.

Bell announced it today on Twitter, and Hulu confirmed it. See both here: [link]

I later got the logline in an email from Hulu. I am putting it in spoiler font, just in case:

Logline: Spring breakers are getting murdered in Neptune, thereby decimating the seaside town's lifeblood tourist industry. After Mars Investigations is hired by the parents of one of the victims to find their son's killer, Veronica is drawn into an epic eight-episode mystery that pits the enclave's wealthy elites, who would rather put an end to the month-long bacchanalia, against a working class that relies on the cash influx that comes with being the West Coast's answer to Daytona Beach.
