Can you believe it's only 60 days to Halloween?!? It pretty much goes without saying that it's going to be an unusual spooky season this year. If you're not already, be sure you're following
Dinosaur Dracula as he kicked off his Halloween countdown this past weekend.
Streaming
Dead to Me (S1-2, Netflix) - Applegate and Cardellini are
deviously delightful in this dark comedy. The writing is top notch and the
story gets stranger as it goes.
Umbrella Academy (S2, Netflix) - I really enjoyed the first season and I felt this one was even better because they were able to dig into the characters more. Time travel can get a little wonky as a plot device but they handled it very well.
Marvel's Runaways (S1-2, Disney+) - A comic based series that I've actually read! Granted, it's been awhile since I read the original comics but I feel like they did an amazing job with this adaptation. They could not have done a better job with the kids they cast. Really hoping the final season gives some kind of ending.
Black Summer (Netflix) - Follows different people during the early days
of a zombie apocalypse trying to make their way to a government extraction
point. It's not overly gory but it can get brutal at times. Even if you've had
your fill of zombie media, I say it's worth checking out.
High Score (Netflix) - A 6 part series looking at the history of video games. Given there is so much to cover, it doesn't get too in depth in any one place. What I do really like about it is that you get to meet some of the people that helped shaped the industry.
