Be careful: there are major ‘Stranger Things’ spoilers out there.

All Other TV News

Stranger Things‘s final episodes are reportedly long — like some of them will be movie-length long. And the cast is warning younger viewers that it’s going to be SCARY.

Speaking of Stranger Things, reportedly thanks to a Stranger Things-branded Monopoly game that hit the shelves a bit too early, there are some major spoilers out there. The Duffer Bothers reportedly had a “total meltdown” about the leak. I’m not going to share any spoilers here but if you’re curious, there’s a Reddit thread that has all the details.

This is Us tried to murder all of us with their penultimate episode this week. As someone who has a very sad thing going on in my own family right now, I found it simultaneously almost unbearable and deeply cathartic. (But I’m also back on the verge of tears just thinking about it again.)

Still, Miguel deserved better.

And this list of TV shows deaths that were a punch in the gut did the right thing and didn’t choose a singular Lost death, because, honestly, how do you choose?

Contrary to rumors going around, The CW claims they are not getting out of the superhero business.

Mindy Kaling doesn’t care what you think about her Velma being Southeast Asian. If a dog can solve crimes, Kaling told the audience at the Warner Bros Discovery Upfront presentation, then her Velma “can be brown.”

Some Real Housewives of Beverly Hills business: Erika gave an update on Tom Giradi’s health: “I can only say decline and further decline. It will not get better.” As for Kyle Richards, the last remaining original cast member, she says this season might be her last. (But it probably won’t be.)

This person does a full dissection of the CGI in the She-Hulk: Attorney at Law trailer. It’s bad, y’all. It’s really bad.

Disney+ says they will have fewer ads than Hulu on their ad-supported level, and that demand is “extraordinary.”

Netflix is losing long-time subscribers at an alarming rate.

Sinclair Broadcast’s CEO admits that political polarization is good for their business. The country is on fire, but GREAT FOR THEM.

According to Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series on Disney+ will be the last chapter in the whole Skywalker saga.

One thought on “Be careful: there are major ‘Stranger Things’ spoilers out there.

  1. To that list of heart-rending character deaths I would add a trio from David Simon (spoilers, obviously): Wallace (Michael B. Jordan) on The Wire; Creighton (John Goodman) on Treme; and Frankie (James Franco) on The Deuce.
