Hellatius is almost
over. During the mid season break many fans anticipate the return of their
weekly escapism via their favorite show. Sometimes waiting with batted breath
to see how a situation or story arc plays out. If your lucky then January is
like another version of Christmas. Some shows come back with early renal status
and others are not so lucky.
The network leading
the pack with announcements is the CW. They have announced the return of their
flagship show Supernatural for its 13th season! -congrats to cast, crew and all
involved! Also returning will be Arrow (Season 6) The Flash (season 4) Supergirl
(season 3) and legends of Tomorrow also for season 3. This begs the question
have we not had enough of superhero or comic themed entertainment? The
overwhelming answer is 'NO!' Bring on the capes, ships & powers. DC has
even announced a new show, Powerless,
focusing on humans who live in a superhero world!
There has been some
announcements lately that our opinions are on the fence about. Brian Cranston
is reportedly coming back to the Power Rangers Verse. See the Nerdist article: http://nerdist.com/why-bryan-cranston-returned-for-the-power-rangers-reboot/
We saw an intriguing
video
yesterday on social media where your smart phones and mp3 players could be
locked away for a pre-determined amount of time. This time could be set on the outside of the
box. But the only way the box would open and set your devices free is after the
time limit is up. Many are calling this the answer to distracted conversations
and welcome genuine social interaction. - a thing many of us alas, still need
work on.
But… there is still
a flip side, as Shannon pointed out on my Facebook, there could be disastrous
consequences and we can see a horror movie plot developing….
What are your
thoughts? Can you live for a period of time without your smart phone?
