    Remember that time Matt LeBlanc guest starred on Married with Children, then got his own spinoff? Probably not, this is kind of like that, but way more successful... Especially since our 90 minute series premiere runs longer than all the episodes of Top of the Heap combined (probably). BitHUD's Thaddeus is by fellow media junkie Pally J this time around. Our two plucky, kind of young heroes christen the show by talking about Denis Villeneuve's Dune and the new spicy screenshots which have surfaced, Disney's "Live Action" Robin Hood Adaptation in the works, Richard Kelley's threat to make another Southland Tales movie, and Pendleton Ward's 4/20 divine gift to the world Midnight Gospel. Then, they finally the heavy topics: A review of Paramount's Sonic The Hedgehog (2020), and our overall impressions of Ducktales (2017). Will these two friends survive their journey into a new strange city full of interesting side characters and wild adventures? Stay tuned to find out!
