Will Trent – Floor Is Lava

  • Title: Will Trent – Floor Is Lava
  • IMDb: link

In an episode that involves Will (Ramón Rodríguez), Angie (Erika Christensen), Faith (Iantha Richardson) and Ormewood (Jake McLaughlin) all awkwardly trying not to disturb evidence (in the sequence which provides the episode its title), “Floor Is Lava” is most notable for walking Will and Angie through a series of meetings from some awkward on-the-job discussions to a tearful confrontation after hours to an honest break in their relationship that leaves the two firmly separated. Going along with this theme is another appearance of Marion (Gina Rodriguez) confirming her as Will’s new love interest.

Spidey Super Stories #1

/ / Comics

Spidey Saturday takes us back to the very first issue of Spidey Super Stories which explored the origins of Spider-Man in the main story, properly introducing him for the new comic with ties to The Electric Company‘s Spider-Man shorts, while also providing some back-up Spidey stories. Skipping over the tragic aspect of Spidey’s origins, the story gives us the spider-bite, nerdy Peter’s lonely existence, the classic scenes of Peter testing out his powers after avoiding a car, and creating the costume and web-shooters to fight crime as Spider-Man.

  • wiki: link

Set in one of the many spider-verse realities, the opening episode of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man introduces us to incoming freshman Peter Parker (Hudson Thames) who gets bit by a radioactive spider from another dimension on his first day at high school. The episode is a mix of modern and throwback, giving Peter a nostalgic look while replacing the older supporting characters with slightly different choices. Speaking of different choices, the moment from Captain America: Civil War arrives, but its not Tony Stark talking to Aunt May (Kari Wahlgren) when he walks into the apartment but Norman Osborne (Colman Domingo) instead. Although Osborne is there with a legitmate internship offer (not asking for his helping in taking down Captain America). Yes, a different world indeed.

Dog Man

  • Title: Dog Man
  • IMDb: link

Based on the children’s books of the same name (spun off from Captain Underpants), Dog Man is exactly what you would expect from the premise of a police officer and his dog merged together after an explosion when the dog’s head is sewn on the cop’s body (but keeps his paws for some reason?) leading to the mediocre cop becoming a “supa cop” beloved by the entire city, except apparently the Mayor (Cheri Oteri).
