Dave is joined by Darryl on this week’s Geektown Radio as they chat through the latest TV, film and gaming news, along with the shows and games they’ve been watching recently.
Darryl kicks things off with a look at ‘High Potential’ Season 2, the crime procedural starring Kaitlin Olson, which continues to deliver those fun “clever outsider helps the police” vibes. He also reviews ‘Mistletoe Murders’, the surprisingly intriguing cosy crime series starring Sarah Drew, which is available in the UK on ITVX, along with Jackie Chan action thriller ‘The Shadow’s Edge’, and indie drama ‘The Bearded Girl’.
Meanwhile, Dave has been diving into the early access release of ‘Subnautica 2’, which builds on the underwater survival, base-building and monster-dodging brilliance of the original game. He also gives his thoughts on ‘The Punisher: One Last Kill’, the Marvel one-shot style special bringing Jon Bernthal’s Frank Castle further into the MCU, and discusses the finale of ‘Outlander’, including its deliberately ambiguous ending. Plus, there’s a look at ‘Good Omens 3’, which wraps up the story of Crowley and Aziraphale in a 90-minute Prime Video finale.
In the news section, we cover ‘The Lincoln Lawyer’ ending with Season 5 on Netflix, Channel 4 cancelling ‘Pushers’, and a huge batch of BBC comedy renewals including ‘Amandaland’, ‘Black Ops’, ‘Such Brave Girls’, ‘Things You Should Have Done’, ‘Mammoth’ and ‘Two Doors Down’. We also discuss renewals for ‘Prisoner’, ‘Running Point’, ‘My Life with the Walter Boys’, ‘Jury Duty’, ‘Reacher’, ‘Margo’s Got Money Troubles’, and more.
There are also air date updates for ‘Ride with Norman Reedus’ on ITVX, ‘Stuart Fails To Save The Universe’ on HBO Max, ‘VisionQuest’ on Disney+, and ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Season 3 on Prime Video. Plus, Prime Video gives a series order to fantasy adaptation ‘Fourth Wing’, while Peacock begins development on a live-action ‘Fast & Furious’ TV series with Vin Diesel producing.
Finally, we run through next week’s TV highlights, including ‘Jack Ryan’, ‘Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed’, ‘SkyMed’, ‘The Boroughs’, ‘PONIES’, ‘Two Weeks in August’, ‘Dear England’, ‘Brokenwood Mysteries’, ‘Law & Order: Special Victims Unit’, ‘Rick and Morty’, and ‘Who Do You Think You Are?’.
