This Is Pop – Finished Watching

Finished watching the documentary series This is Pop on Netflix.  Over all it was pretty good.  Just some of the episodes were much better than others.  That’s one good thing about that.  They are not connected, so you can watch in any order or skip over ones your not interested in.  Did learn some interesting facts about the music industry.   One is, that auto tune has been around much longer than you think.  If you are into music this series is worth checking out.

Stranger Things Season Four

We are getting ever closer to season four of Stranger Things.  While I was late to the party watching the first three seasons.  Didn’t watch them until last summer (2021).  This time I will not wait.   Am sure it will be really good since the have upped the budget by a lot.  Or many be that could hinder it.  Will will find out soon.  Less than two weeks to go before the first half is out on May 27, 2022.

This Is Pop

Loaded up Netflix the other day and a new documentary series showed up, This is Pop.   Watched the first episode.  Thought it was interesting and will watch the others.  Got thinking, remember hearing about this last year some time.  Turns out it aired on CTV back in 2021.  It’s nice to see some Canadian made content showing up on Netflix.  The synopsis, “  This Is Pop is an eight-part docuseries investigating the music industry. The episodes will delve deep into various different aspects of popular music from country to hip-hop, and will include interviews and snippets from some of the world’s biggest music artists.”

Stranger Things Season Four Trailer

A nice surprise today (April 12, 2022) Netflix put out a trailer for season four of Stranger Things.  You can see it > here or below.  While I was late to the party watching the show.  It just means I had less of a wait for new episodes.  If you don’t know all ready, this season will be broken into to parts.  Luckily there is much time between them.  On May 27, 2022 is the first volume, (that is what they are calling it).   Then the second volume will be on July 1.

Stranger Things Season Four And Five News

Back in November (2021) we got a teaser trailer for season four of Stranger Things.  There is some new news out now.  Season four will be in two parts. Volume one will be out on Netflix May 27, 2022.  Then the second volume will be on July 1.  So that is not really a long time between, which is nice.  The other news is that season five will be the last.   Not sure how long we will have to wait for season five.  Just hope it’s not years.

Marvel Shows On Netflix Are Leaving

Just read that the Netflix/Marvel shows are leaving the service.  Sadly I never made it though all the shows and episodes.  I did enjoy the first season of Jessica Jones.  Haven’t seen the second or third.  Watched the first two of Daredevil.  There were amazing.  Then moved on to Luke Cage, which was pretty good. After that forced myself to watch Iron Fist and The Defenders.  Didn’t really like those so gave up watching they rest of the shows and seasons.  From what I have read they will be leaving March 1, 2022.  There is still some time.  So thinking I might try and binge watch the third season of Daredevil.

Titans Season 3 On Netflix

Season three of Titans has been on Netflix Canada since December (2021).  Now that I have finished watching season two of The Witcher decided this will be the next one to watch.  While I like the first two season over all.  Did have some problems with pacing and not make senses at times.  Am hoping that this third season will fix that.  As I am typing this have only watched one episode.  From that it seems to set a good tone.  Will be back once I seen all thirteen episodes.

The Toys That Made Us Season 4 Some Day?

Got thinking about the documentary series on Netflix, The Toys That Made Us.  It has been many years since there has been new episodes/new season.  Season three was out in 2019.  The spin off show, The Movies That Made Us, has more episodes.  Then again is is a lot easier to make that show then talking about old toys.  Going to keep my fingers crossed that some time in 2022 there will be a season four.

Voir

Gave the six episodes of Netflix Voir a watch.  This is sort of like mini docs about peoples take on movies.  The description calls it a, “collection of visual essays.”  This is a good way of describing them.  While these were kind of interesting to watch.  However there is not much to make the standout or want to see again.  The episdoe I like most is, Film vs Television.  It talks about how films were the got to for entertainment and how TV caught up to it.  Then is some ways was better.  Would say it worth checking out but not a must see right way.

Titans Season 3 On Netflix

It was back in the summer of (2021) that Titans season three was out in the States on HBO Max.  Then was thinking, I hope it would be on Netflix in Canada at some point.  Just like the first two seasons.   Was all so thinking it wouldn’t be until 2022 some time.  Well I was wrong.  We don’t have to wait much longer.  It will be on Netflix December 8, 2021.  Very much looking forward to this season.  The first to were pretty good.  While there are some problems.  Over all it is worth the watch.
