MonteCristo and DoA return to dissect Netflix's latest fantasy implosion, where Liam Hemsworth steps into the role of Geralt and discovers that charisma and coherent writing have both been exhumed. From botched tone and nonsense plotting to uneven VFX and dialogue that feels AI-generated, The Witcher has finally become the kind of fantasy parody it used to mock. The hosts break down why the show collapsed: bizarre subplots, missing chemistry, baffling character arcs, and some of the worst world-building since The Acolyte. They compare Cavill's grounded performance to Hemsworth's “mush-mouth” Witcher, praise Laurence Fishburne for stealing every scene, and mourn the death of what was once Netflix's flagship genre series. Plus: how this all ties back to bad adaptation culture, writer-room ego, and why Henry Cavill was right to leave when he did.

This week on @ betches, Sami and Jordana kick things off with a full Sabrina Carpenter concert debrief and why stage presence, vocals, and how the “polly-pocket pop star” bit works so well for her. Then it's Hilary Duff time: what her new single “Mature” might actually sound like now, and whether she can thread the needle between nostalgia and 2025 pop. Also, Producer Joe confirms she is in fact a gay icon. They also get into Travis Kelce's ex Kayla Nicole's Toni Braxton Halloween look (cute homage or subtle clapback to Taylor/Travis?), and dive deep on Lily Allen's new album “West End Girl” and how David Harbour broke the rules of their open marriage. Plus, Jonathan Bailey as PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive, and an A24 Eternity MASH game that forces impossible choices (like Liam Hemsworth having to live in Long Island with Jordana.)

In this episode of Bandwagon Nerds, the guys are back, so is The Witcher, and PC Tunney needs your support. Tunney is rather displeased with the start of Season 4 and not just because Liam Hemsworth has replaced Henry Cavill in the titular role of Geralt. But what did Patrick and Dave think of the first Episode, and are there reasons to believe Season 4 might still be good? A limited visit to the Trailer Park looks at the official trailer for one of the most anticipated series returning to Netflix in a few weeks, Stranger Things Season 5, as well as the seventh (yes, seventh!) installment of the Scream franchise. There is also a lot of news around the Nerdosphere. Call of Duty is on its way to the big screen. Disney created controversy as it backed out of its deal with Doctor Who and got into a dispute with YouTube. Oh, and those rumors about Netflix wanting to buy WB-Discovery might be more real than we thought. But the question remains: Just how much of WB-Discovery does Netflix really want?@AttitudeAgg@WrestlngRealist@itsReyCash@PCTunney@itsmedpp@ViolentAesop@TheMindlessPod@therealcplatt@ChairshotMedia@BandwagonNerdsPROWRESTLINGTEES.COM/TheChairshot - Makes a GREAT GIFT!!!About Bandwagon NerdsJoin Patrick O'Dowd, David Ungar, PC Tunney, Rey Cash, and DPP as they keep everyone up on all things nerd and maybe add some new nerds along the way.

MIN 4: IT: BIENVENIDOS A DARRY. (HBO MAX) 4 estrellas Ambientada en los años sesenta, IT: Bienvenidos a Derry funciona como precuela directa de las películas de Andy Muschietti y amplía el universo del payaso Pennywise desde sus orígenes. La serie, producida por los hermanos Muschietti junto a Jason Fuchs, explora cómo el mal ancestral que habita en las alcantarillas de Derry comenzó a manifestarse décadas antes de los hechos narrados en IT (Capítulo Uno). Con un reparto encabezado por Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, Taylour Paige y James Remar, la producción mantiene el tono inquietante y melancólico de la saga cinematográfica, pero introduce una mirada más coral, centrada en los vecinos del pequeño pueblo de Maine y en cómo sus secretos, miedos y prejuicios van dando forma al monstruo que todos llevan dentro. Min 11: EL MISTERIO DE CEMETERY ROAD (APPLE TV) 4 estrellas Basada en la novela de Greg Iles, El misterio de Cemetery Road llega a Apple TV+ como un potente thriller sureño protagonizado por Emma Thompson, que ofrece una de sus interpretaciones más intensas y contenidas de los últimos años. La actriz británica encarna a Maggie McEwan, una periodista que regresa a su ciudad natal de Bienville, Misisipi, tras la muerte de su padre, y se ve arrastrada a una trama de corrupción, secretos familiares y heridas nunca cerradas. Lo que empieza como un regreso íntimo se transforma en una investigación que desentierra la podredumbre de una comunidad marcada por los silencios, las lealtades rotas y un crimen que amenaza con resquebrajar los cimientos del poder local. Min 17: STAR WARS VISION 3 (DISNEY) 3,5 estrellas Con su tercer volumen, Star Wars: Visions confirma que el universo galáctico creado por George Lucas puede reinventarse sin límites. Esta nueva antología producida por Lucasfilm vuelve a reunir a estudios de animación de todo el mundo —entre ellos varios españoles y latinoamericanos— para reinterpretar la Fuerza, los Jedi y el Lado Oscuro desde prismas culturales y estéticos radicalmente distintos. Cada episodio funciona como un pequeño cortometraje independiente, una cápsula de autor que combina la herencia mítica de la saga con nuevas sensibilidades visuales, musicales y filosóficas. En esta tercera entrega, la diversidad narrativa alcanza su punto más alto: desde el anime introspectivo hasta la animación experimental europea, pasando por la plasticidad del stop-motion o el dinamismo del cómic digital, todo se conjuga bajo un mismo lema creativo: expandir el mito sin traicionar su espíritu. Min 23: THE WITCHER 4 (NETFLIX) 2 estrellas Con su cuarta temporada, The Witcher afronta el reto de reinventarse sin perder identidad. Tras la marcha de Henry Cavill, el papel de Geralt de Rivia recae ahora en Liam Hemsworth, que asume el testigo con un tono más introspectivo y vulnerable, sin renunciar al magnetismo físico del brujo cazador de monstruos. La nueva entrega, desarrollada por Lauren Schmidt Hissrich para Netflix, adapta los tramos iniciales de La Torre de la Golondrina y La Dama del Lago, continuando la odisea de Ciri (Freya Allan) y Yennefer (Anya Chalotra) en un continente fracturado por la guerra y la magia. En esta etapa, la serie se aleja parcialmente de la épica fragmentada de los inicios para abrazar un tono más oscuro y político, donde el destino de Ciri se convierte en eje central de un conflicto que desborda lo humano y lo mítico. Min 29: BSO: SOLO ASESINATOS EN EL EDIFCIO 5 (4 estrellas) En su quinta temporada, Solo asesinatos en el edificio vuelve a demostrar que el humor, el misterio y la música pueden convivir en perfecta armonía. La banda sonora, firmada nuevamente por Siddhartha Khosla, consolida la identidad sonora más reconocible de la serie: una mezcla de jazz sofisticado, melodías de cámara y ligeros guiños al noir clásico que acompañan a Charles, Oliver y Mabel en sus nuevas pesquisas criminales dentro del edificio Arconia. Khosla, fiel a su estilo elegante y juguetón, construye un universo musical donde cada motivo temático refleja la dinámica del trío protagonista y el tono entre irónico y melancólico que define a la serie.

La cuarta temporada de The Witcher marca un punto de inflexión importante en la serie de fantasía de Netflix: Henry Cavill se despide como Geralt de Rivia y Liam Hemsworth toma el relevo. En este episodio de Razones Para Ver , analizamos sin spoilers cómo esta transición actoral no solo funciona, sino que potencia el arco emocional del personaje y redefine la dinámica de los protagonistas. Además, repasa el desarrollo de Yennefer y Ciri, el equilibrio narrativo entre sus tres ejes principales y el pulso visual y narrativo que mantiene la serie como una de las grandes apuestas del género fantástico. Una temporada que prepara con firmeza el camino hacia un cierre que promete ser épico y oscuro a partes iguales. SINOPSIS: Ahora que todos los conflictos del Continente se han convertido en una guerra en toda regla, va a ser aún más difícil para Geralt de Rivia viajar a través del mismo, incluso con su viejo amigo Jaskier y su nueva amiga arquera Milva cerca. El hechicero intenta proseguir su búsqueda de Ciri, que se ha escondido tras conocer la oscura realidad de sus poderes apocalípticos, mientras que Yennefer se prepara para tomar un nuevo liderazgo. La restauración del orden del Continente no será tarea fácil.

Drei Universen werden in dieser Woche seriell weitergesponnen. Den größten Aufschlag hat dabei Wow/HBO mit der Stephen-King-Adaption "Es: Welcome to Derry" (4:50). Andy Muschietti, Macher der beiden "Es"-Filme, erzählt darin die Vorgeschichte seiner Horror-Hits und will mit jeder Staffel 27 Jahre weiter in die Vergangenheit springen, also im Zyklus der Pennywise-Erscheinungen. Die Horror-Fans Michael und Roland sowie Horror-Agnostiker Rüdiger versuchen die Serie im Kontext des Genres, der beiden Filme und der King-Vorlage einzuordnen und stellen überrascht fest, dass die Serie gegenüber den Filmen die Horror-Schraube kräftig anzieht. Während HBO auf King setzt, hat Apple TV das Mick-Herron-Universum in Arbeit und wagt sich nach "Slow Horses" nun an die Adaption seiner Zoë-Boehm-Reihe. "Down Cemetery Road" (38:01) war 2003 Herrons Debütroman und beschäftigt sich mit einer von Emma Thompson gespielten Privatdetektivin - auch wenn die ersten Folgen der Serie sich mehr auf eine von Rita Wilson gespielte Zivilistin konzentriert, die Boehms Agentur anheuert. Eines vorweg: Vergleiche mit "Slow Horses" sollte man nicht ziehen. Aber auch darüber, ob die Serie für sich als Krimi funktioniert herrscht keine große Einigkeit bei Holger, Michael und Rüdiger. Und schließlich wagen wir uns - Ehrenwort! - ein letztes Mal an unsere Hatewatch-Serie "The Witcher" (1:12:33), denn die fährt mit Liam Hemsworth einen neuen Hauptdarsteller auf nachdem Henry Cavill aus Frust über die Drehbücher ausgestiegen ist - und damit mehr Rückgrat bewiesen hat als wir, die wir uns noch einmal durch die acht Folgen gearbeitet haben und dabei einige Sachen entdeckt haben, die uns regelrecht verstören. Cold-Open-Frage: "Was halten wir von Taylor Sheridans neuem Milliarden-Deal?"

The internet continues its chaotic march, with a TikTok deal potentially happening (for real this time, maybe), while LimeWire bought the Fyre Fest brand, because more viruses are always a great idea. Corporate America is going full AI-bro with massive layoffs at Fiverr, xAI, and Google, while OpenAI reveals people are using ChatGPT for pretty much everything but coding. Age verification is coming to apps and online services in California and New York, because apparently, teenagers need protection (after the fact). Elsewhere, nudists have declared war on SpaceX over rocket launches, and fans are ditching Elon since he started being so insufferable; even a Tesla engineer quit and roasted him spectacularly, all while NHTSA investigates Tesla's fire-prone door handles.In the world of entertainment, we're catching up on Wednesday and Foundation S3 (just pretend the books never existed, your brain will be rewired!), and Upload wrapped up its truncated season nicely. The 2003 Freaky Friday was a fun, nostalgic trip through early 2000s L.A., reminding us of all the cool places that are now just... gone. Alien: Earth and Gen V S2 are on our watchlist, and we'll see if Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 4 lives up to its promise. The Witcher S4, featuring Liam Hemsworth as Geralt (aka the Dick Switch), drops in October, with Laurence Fishburne making it somewhat palatable. The Lilith Fair documentary is peak 90s, and Meta's latest dystopian product was so bad it made the Cybertruck demo look good. Apple's new AI features are cool, but the iOS 26 "liquid glass" update and its awful crossfade feature are less so; also, meditation apparently has a dark side, but binaural beats might just make you rave. Publishers Clearing House's bankruptcy means "forever" winners won't get paid (always take the lump sum!); international sellers are charging absurd shipping to avoid American buyers; and the deepfake Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kills Darth Maul (Live Action) is surprisingly good.Steve Martin's Born Standing Up is still great life advice, and the Carrot App the Musical is, against all odds, amazing. Robert Redford has sadly passed, a legend who gave us Sneakers, and L.A.'s own Clayton Kershaw is retiring at the end of the season, a true one-team legend who deserves all the accolades.Sponsors:MasterClass - Right now, our listeners get an additional 15% off any annual membership at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKS.

Really Interesting Women The podcast Ep. 156 Chika Ikogwe In the evolving landscape of Australian entertainment, few actors embody the multicultural spirit and artistic versatility of contemporary Australia like Chika Ikogwe. Chika stands out as a trailblazer in Australia's entertainment industry. She's celebrated for her dynamic acting talent, writing prowess, and unwavering advocacy for diversity and representation. Born in Nigeria, Chika moved to Australia at a young age and had to navigate, at times, very challenging circumstances. After graduating high school, she enrolled at Victorian College of the Arts before transitioning to the Bachelor of Fine Arts (Acting) program at NIDA, Australia's premier performing arts institution. What followed was a string of successful theatre shows and numerous awards and accolades including the winner of 'Best Newcomer' at the Sydney Theatre Awards in 2019 and the recipient of the 2020 ATYP Rose Byrne Emerging Female Leader in the Arts scholarship. She went on to play a starring role in the Emmy award winning tv series Heartbreak High and, more recently, has worked with Russell Crowe and Liam Hemsworth in a major film.Chika's journey from a four-year-old immigrant to an award-winning actor and writer embodies the successful integration of diverse cultural perspectives into mainstream Australian arts. But there's still a long way to go. To listen to our conversation, head to the link in my bio, or wherever you find your podcasts.
