Which means Alan Tudyk as Beetle?

No, that was Greg "Gargoyles" Weisman. Who would also be a good choice to write a DC movie.

There's no writers room for season 10. It's the same commissioned-script system Doctor Who has been using since the beginning.

Wow, yes. That's the best possible description of his awful, grating delivery.

An underrated gem!

The pizza-delivering uncle who acts like he's saving the world in Disney's Meet the Robinsons.

I'm a middle-school librarian, and I can always count on a few nerds checking out the book after I introduce it as my favorite novel.

To me, she looks like equal parts of both of her parents. An exact 50/50 Lisa Bonet/Lenny Kravitz mix.

Accurate.

On Stranger Things, I found this young man to be very unlikable indeed.

Yeah, I think he's done. He's written or co-written 48 episodes over the past ten seasons. I imagine he's ready to not think about Doctor Who stories again for a very long time.

Mathieson also wrote "The Girl Who Died" in season 9.

I really hope she finds a project worthy of her talent.

Pinocchio is such a crazy movie.

Henson is actually adapting that screenplay as a 12-issue comic right now. It's . . . not very good so far.

My 2 1/2-year-old came strolling into the living room when I was in the middle of The Dark Crystal on a Saturday morning a few weeks ago, and she got pretty into it. She assumed Jen and Kira were monkeys and the Skeksis were dinosaurs, so she was pretty excited about both of those.

To me, Labyrinth is the project that sums up Jim Henson's entire career. It's in the fantasy mold of his 80s work like The Dark Crystal and The Storyteller, but it also has jokes and songs and a Special Guest Star like The Muppet Show. It's not a perfect movie, but it's just so much fun.

They already did that once!

Rewatching Parks & Rec S7 this spring was only occasionally awkward. The lack of real-life politics is a bit jarring now*, but only because the earlier seasons spend so much time talking about HRC, Biden, etc. But mostly the "life in 2017" jokes just land with a thud.

Alias is ground zero, I think. That showed jumped ahead two years one season.
