Sandman Surprise
Posted By:

Did you enjoy Netflix's Sandman series? Keen for a little bit more? Not keening on waiting for another season to be shot and produced, assuming it's renewed?

Netflix have released a two-part bonus titled A Dream of a Thousand Cats and Calliope. The cats one is animated.

Yet another twist on Netflix's typical immediate, full release of a series following last year's Arcane releasing three episodes at a time weekly over three weeks, this year's Stranger Things coming in two parts and anthology horror series Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities to release two episodes a day over four days in October.

If it hasn't happened already, someone must start taking bets on what they'll try next.

Being serious for just a moment, we did enjoy the series and will happily watch more.

It strikes us as decidedly more fantasy than sci-fi but its DC comics connection qualifies it as multi-genre for our purposes.

You probably recognised Doctor Who's Arthur Darvill in the live-action part of the trailer.

If that that excited you even slightly, brace yourself.

David and wife Georgia Tennant - who have played Doctor Who and his clone - voice characters in the animated episode.

The two part bonus The Sandman episode is available now on Netflix.
