Welcome to SFP-NOW and our new TV reviews show that we'll be looking to roll out every two weeks. For this series, Ian Cullen is joined by Marx Pyle of GenreTainment to discuss episodes of various genre television shows. This week's episode takes a look at episode three of The Last Of Us, which seemed to stir up mixed reviews from fans of the game versus those fans that have just tuned in for the series. Get our views on the Bob and Frank storyline. Also, we have a look at the new Netflix Series Lockwood & Co, which is somewhat of a surprise package with its story of an alternate future in which ghosts are a very common occurrence, but can only be hunted down by teenagers. Staying on the theme of supernatural series we also take a look at the new Paramount Plus series Wolf Pack, which is somewhat of a comeback for Buffy's Sarah Michelle Geller who interestingly doesn't have a huge role in the show's pilot episode. Moving from horror. We jump to some time travel for some fast and dirty comments on the new Quantum Leap series and the episode titled Leap. Die. Repeat. which kind of played out a little like Groundhog Day. And Finally, Marx talks about his recent experience of being a panelist on a massive Buffy The Vampire Slayer Rewatch and talks a little about what he considers to be the best episodes of the show's fourth season.

Welcome to a celebration as SFP-NOW and GenreTainment Cross their Streams to discuss their top picks for Television, Movies, Comics, Books, and Video Games of 2022. With another year coming to an end. SFP-NOW's Ian Cullen and Genretainment's Marx Pyle invite guests, Jeff Burns of SuperGeekeduo and Fantasy writer Katharine Dow, to share their top three Television, Movie, Book, Comic Book and Video Game picks of 2022. Indeed 2022 has been a great year for genre television and film and started off with a bang as DC unleashed Peacemaker on an unsuspecting audience when it hit HBO in the USA and Sky Atlantic here in the UK. After this, the year continued with a steady stream of TV shows and movies, which included such hits as Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Stranger Things, Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Game of Thrones: House of The Dragon and much more. Insofar as movie releases went. We were totally spoiled with a mixed bag of genre movies ranging from the out-and-out stylized madness of Bullet Train to the surprise hit Prey, which instead of enjoying a big cinema release got released via streaming thanks to Hulu and Disney Plus here in the UK. The year also saw its fair share of sequels as well with the much-anticipated release of Enola Holmes 2 and of Course Black Panther II: Wakanda Forever. When it comes to comic books. It was a great year for Star Wars as we saw the story of Crimson Dawn get fully fleshed out as it crossed over the entirety of the Star Wars comicsverse. Whereas more individual titles such as Something is Killing The Children and The British Paranormal Society also got a look in. So tune in to listen to the shows, movies, and books that we discuss and if you have a few picks you'd like to add or have us look at. Please feel free to leave in the comments and we'll try and circle back and discuss those too. In the meantime, we wish all our listeners a happy and prosperous 2023 in the hopes that things will get better for all.

We are back with a special episode discussing all the theories for the first half of season 3! There is a TON to theorize about and we brought a few guests over from the DC Action Hour for a fresh take on where season 3 might be going.   Synopsis Where are we going with the Mallus storyline? The Legends keep running into ancestors and younger versions of themselves, what could this mean? Is Constantine here just to help fight Mallus with his magic knowledge? We lost a couple characters this season, such as Stein and Jax. Who might replace them? Who do you think would be a good fit and why? We will only have Snart for a little while longer. How are they going to write him off the show? Where do you think the Time Bureau HQ is located?  When Sara followed Darhk in the midseason finale by grabbing him as they vanished with the time stone, she ends up in a “zone” of some kind with Mallus. Where was that? How does Agent Sharpe reach in and pull her out? We saw Stein take the liquid that is supposed to stabilize and trick the Firestorm matrix in his body, but we don’t see Jax take it, so how is he stabilized? Or is he going to explode due to being only one-half now?   Links Check out the DC Action Hour Here The Super Geeked Up YouTube Channel Super Geeked Up on Facebook Super Geeked Up on Twitter  Check out GenreTainment and other Marx Pyle projects   Contact Information If you want to join in the discussion, you can submit feedback via email to tomorowslegends@gmail.com.
