Toy Story is coming back for a fifth time, and this time, they are facing their scariest threat. What is it? Technology for kids!
Meet Lilypad, a high-tech frog-shaped smart tablet voiced by Greta Lee that makes Buzz, Woody, Jessie, and the rest of the gang’s jobs exponentially harder when they have to go head-to-head with the all-new threat to playtime.
Along with the teaser, Pixar revealed who Conan O’Brien will be voicing in the movie, and it is a role he was born to play. The Oscars host is Smarty Pants, a toilet-training tech toy.
Earlier this week, we found out that Shifting Gears is staging a Home Improvement reunion with Tim Allen reuniting with his old castmates Patricia Richardson, Richard Karn, and Debbe Dunning.
However, the staged reunion with the three actors might not happen if they can’t find the correct stage. Good thing Allen was there to show them the way to his new home.
Although the sitcom has the same home as the old one because it airs on the same channel, ABC.
You can see the four of them together again on October 1st during the Shifting Gears season 2 premiere.
Tim Allen is no stranger to bringing his former co-stars onto his current shows, and Shifting Gears is no different.
Allen cast his Galaxy Quest crew member Daryl “Chill” Mitchell in the sitcom as a series regular. Then he asked his wife from Home Improvement to guest star on season 1.
This season, Patricia Richardson will be back, and she is bringing some friends with her. Tool Time’s Richard Karn and Debbe Dunning are going to be fixing things for Allen’s character in the season premiere, according to Deadline.
Later on in the season, Allen’s wife, Nancy Travis, from Last Man Standing, will guest star for a second time.
Shifting Gears, which also stars Kat Dennings and Seann William Scott, returns with new episodes on ABC on October 1st.
ABC had good news for Will Trent, The Rookie, 9-1-1, Shifting Gears, and Grey’s Anatomy because they picked up all five shows for another season.
However, Doctor Odyssey is still waiting by the phone to find out if it will set sail again or if it will sink.
Since ABC has already picked up the 9-1-1 spinoff, 9-1-1: Nashville, I think we know they will do a Rose and let it die like Jack. I mean, how many Ryan Murphy shows do they need? Additionally, I am sure it is an expensive show to pay for Joshua Jackson and Don Johnson’s salaries, and they are not getting the ratings to justify that pay.
I don’t know about you, but I have been missing The Rookie and Will Trent, and I want to know when they are going to be back. Well, today, ABC announced their midseason lineup, so now we know.
