Yeah, I'll burn through it all on day 1, but I have no expectations that it'll be any good. It can't be worse than New Class, right? Just wild to me that they ran that for 7 seasons.

As for something that is worth looking forward to and I do have faith in, AP Bio season 3 is just a few weeks away.

I've been seeing commercials all the time saying it's free. They mean free trial right?

No, like most of the stuff on it is literally free. And if you have a cable provider and sign in through your cable box you actually get the premium stuff free too.

I got rid of Cable recently, best thing I have done this year.

After what has apparently been an intense and rather brief bidding war, Peacock has won Bel-Air, the gritty drama reboot of The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air that started life as a YouTube parody before Will Smith got involved, called up some people involved with the original Fresh Prince, and gave Morgan Cooper—the person behind the YouTube video—a chance to make it a real thing. According to Variety, Peacock is giving Bel-Air a two-season order, with Chris Collins serving as showrunner and co-writing with Cooper.

the video its based on:

Dope.

That Uncle Phil sounds good but it's hard to imagine the character without James Avery's sheer physical presence.

I'm ok with this. I never would have asked for/wanted a Fresh Prince remake/reboot, but the concept works a hell of a lot better for me than just trying to reboot a new Fresh Prince sitcom.

After a few months during which the show’s vaunted library of episodes was only available piecemeal, NBC has now announced that all 45 years of Saturday Night Live are coming to its Peacock streaming service. Per Variety, this marks the first time that the show’s full library has been available to streamers since the implosion of Seeso, NBC’s other streaming service that it would presumably prefer we not think too much about right now.

The full run of Saturday Night Live comes to Peacock on October 1.

We must find Mario Lopez's Dorian Gray portrait.

The Amber Ruffin show is quite funny.

The first 3 minutes of Saved by the Bell is the best thing I've watched all month.

Today, in a move that seems at least partially built around the idea that subscribers will need something to watch after finishing up The Office for the hundredth time, Peacock has announced that it’s renewing A.P. Bio for a fourth season. The then-unnamed streaming service initially resurrected A.P. Bio last summer after it was canceled by NBC, giving it another chance at life and giving the handful of people who did watch its original two seasons a chance to plead with their friends to check it out. “The kid actors are all great,” they shouted. “Paula Pell!” they screamed.

Now, thanks to them and the people who listened to them, A.P. Bio will live on for at least one more year of biology lessons. In a statement (via Variety), series creator Mike O’Brien said that “everyone involved is so excited to do more episodes,” possibly implying that he didn’t see this coming,” and adding that he wants to “dig even deeper into the main characters” and continue “messing with the sitcom format.”
