Netflix announced today that Sweet Magnolias will be back next month, and they dropped a trailer so we can see what to expect for season 5, which comes alive in New York City.
Maddie isn’t the only one grappling with the demands of a new job in Season 5. Multiple citizens of Serenity seek balance and happiness while chasing dreams, navigating old and new relationships, and redefining what they want from themselves and each other. From Serenity to New York and beyond, the Magnolias meet challenges with passion, humor, love — and margaritas.
The heart-warming drama about friendship stars JoAnna Garcia Swisher, Brooke Elliott, and Heather Headley.
Now that Stranger Things has ended its tale, fans wanted more. And they are getting it from Stranger Things: Tales From ’85. The animated series, which debuted on Netflix on April 23rd, is such a hit that the streamer already picked it up for a second season.
“Working on Season 1 has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Now that it’s out in the world, seeing fans connect with these characters – whether they’ve loved them for years or are just meeting them for the first time – has been truly special. I’m excited to continue the journey,” said showrunner Eric Robles.
“We’re thrilled to return to the winter of ’85 for season two. The Hawkins Investigators Club is back, and a new paranormal threat has emerged from the town’s abandoned silver mines. I can’t wait for fans to discover where this entity and the mysterious blue flower we last saw blooming in the Upside Down at the end of Season 1 take our young heroes.”
The young heroes are voiced by Eleven (Brooklyn Davey Norstedt), Mike (Luca Diaz), Will (Benjamin Plessala), Dustin (Braxton Quinney), Lucas (Elisha “EJ” Williams), Max (Jolie Hoang-Rappaport), and Nikki (Odessa A’zion).
Netflix is reimagining a live-action Scooby-Doo series, and today, they began production in Atlanta on the show based on the cartoon.
Scooby-Doo: Origins stars McKenna Grace as Daphne Blake, Tanner Hagen as Shaggy Rogers, Abby Ryder Fortson as Velma Dinkley, Maxwell Jenkins as Fred Jones, and Paul Walter Hauser.
A modern reimagining of the iconic mystery-solving group of teens and their very special dog. During their final summer at camp, old friends Shaggy and Daphne get embroiled in a haunting mystery surrounding a lonely lost Great Dane puppy that may have been a witness to a supernatural murder. Together with the pragmatic and scientific townie, Velma, and the strange, but ever so handsome new kid, Freddy, they set out to solve the case that is pulling each of them into a creepy nightmare that threatens to expose all of their secrets.
I don’t know who those actors are supposed to be. However, they don’t like the Scooby-Doo Gang that we have known and loved for over 50 years. Hopefully, they would fuck up Scooby-Doo too.
Netflix dropped the first trailer for their take on Little House on the Prairie, and it looks beautifully shot. For me, that is enough of a reason to watch a new television series based on Laura Ingalls’s autobiographical novels about her childhood growing up in Walnut Grove in the 1870s.
Little House stars Luke Bracey (Charles Ingalls), Crosby Fitzgerald (Caroline Ingalls), Alice Halsey (Laura Ingalls), Skywalker Hughes (Mary Ingalls), and Warren Christie (John Edwards).
The streamer has such faith in the family drama that they have already picked it up for a second season.
