No Name Trivia Show

Stranger Breakings

The second volume of season four of Stranger Things released this week and may have temporarily broken Netflix as eager fans tried to stream it.

A Swift Death

CW's Tom Swift has been cancelled a little over half way through its short eight episode first season.

One Shirt to Rule Them All

Earlier in the week we saw stories circulating about Ryan Gosling wearing a Ncuti Gatwa Doctor Who t-shirt on a film set. While the shirt looked cool it didn't meet our threshold for news.

Quantum Leap Update

In addition to a US September 19 premiere date, more information about the plot of the Quantum Leap revival has been shared.

Scrolling through the platform yesterday we stumbled across an attempted recovery in the form of a film adaptation of the first season.

Paper Girls Teaser

Amazon have released a very short teaser for their upcoming Paper Girls series.

Which only scratches the surface of what we've suggested could be one of the more thought-provoking sci-fi series on the way to our screens.

Fallout Casting

As Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Westworld seemingly flounders, we hear casting news for one of their two upcoming Amazon sci-fi series, Fallout.

Kyle MacLachlan who played Paul Atreides in the 1984 Dune film and Quake / Daisy's insane father in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has joined Fallout's cast in an unspecified role.
