Hello, Geektown Radio listeners! Episode 453 of the podcast was packed with intriguing discussions on popular TV shows, upcoming releases, and exciting game reviews. Your host Dave is joined by Matt from Entertainment Talk, as they dive into the latest episodes of series like "Severance," "Invincible," and "Daredevil: Born Again," exploring what makes these narratives tick and engaging fans in deep conversations about pacing, character development, and storytelling.
Diving Deep into TV Show Endings and Renewals
Matt shared his thoughts on the "Severance" finale, highlighting its complex yet captivating storyline that hooked viewers with its mysterious plot. He discussed the intense marathon of watching the last two episodes back-to-back and how the show has been successfully renewed for a third season due to its ambitious storytelling.
Switching over to Amazon Prime, "Invincible" is keeping viewers on the edge of their seats with thrilling action sequences and captivating character arcs. Matt praised the show's ability to balance violence with storytelling, making comparisons to "The Boys" while noting the unique approach of "Invincible."
Cinematic Adventures and Game Reviews
Dave shifted gears by discussing a game with magical elements, "Mind Over Magic." This game is likened to "Oxygen Not Included" but set in a magical school akin to Hogwarts, offering players a new kind of strategic challenge. With its engaging gameplay, players can manage their own magical academy, making it a must-try for fans of base-building games.
Celebrating New Releases and Upcoming Titles
Dave and Matt also explored new TV highlights such as "Adolescence" on Netflix, a poignant series that delves into complex societal issues like knife crime and the influence of negative ideologies. While a difficult watch due to its subject matter, this series beautifully encapsulates the power of storytelling to shine a light on significant issues.
In more light-hearted news, "The Residence" brings comedic relief with its unique take on White House shenanigans, featuring a stellar cast that promises to deliver laughs and mysteries in equal measure. For TV enthusiasts, the return of favorites like "911" and crossover episodes with "Doctor Odyssey" ensure there's always something exciting on the horizon.

Hello and welcome to Episode 452 of the Geektown Radio Podcast! Dave is joined this week by Gray. ready to dive into the latest updates and conversations around TV shows, films, and more.
TV Show Highlights and Film Reviews
Gray shares his recent viewing journey, starting with the emotional finale of "Big Boys" on Channel 4, praising the show for its heartfelt conclusion and strong scripting by Jack Rooke. This ties into a broader discussion on well-rounded TV arcs, as he also covers "Hacks" Season 3 and the ever-evolving "Dexter: Original Sin," noting its mixed critical reception. The conversation then veers towards other compelling series like "Unforgotten" and "Patience," both lauded for their nuanced storytelling.
On a cinematic note, Gray reminisces his recent film escapades, including Cameron Diaz's return in "Back in Action" alongside Jamie Foxx, and a casual yet amusing trip to see "Bridget Jones." Dave follows up with insights on "The Electric State," starring Chris Pratt and Millie Bobby Brown, dissecting its mixed reviews and the controversy surrounding its hefty production budget.
New TV Series to Look Out For
Both Dave and Gray move on to some new series and specials worth noting. "Win or Lose," a Pixar original, and Apple's "Surface" receive mentions for their engaging plots and unique story-telling methods. "Severance" also comes up, with Dave critiquing its pacing while still appreciating its overall brilliance.
For genre TV lovers, there's much to anticipate. The much-loved series like "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" sees renewal, promising continued adventures. On the cancellations side, "Cruel Intentions" meets its end after just one season on Prime Video, prompting speculations on why it failed to capture viewers' attention.
Casting News and Anticipated Returns
Gray and Dave delve into the plethora of casting news, including Matthew McFadgen in "Legacy of Spies" and exciting prospects for "Dexter Resurrection" starring big names like Neil Patrick Harris and Peter Dinklage. They discuss potential shifts in the series narratives with these additions and ponder on how these changes might reflect in viewership.
Moreover, the upcoming "Lanterns" series geared towards a blend of superhero and crime drama tropes piques interest, while the new "9-1-1 Nashville" spin-off starring Chris O'Donnell promises more firehouse drama mixed with music vibes, given its Nashville setting.
Weekly Viewing Highlights
Finally, mark your calendars for the upcoming gems hitting screens next week, including the return of "Marlowe Murder Club," "Gangs of London," and the intriguing "Happy Face" on Paramount+. Dave plans to check out these alongside the returning "9-1-1" series and the new crime drama "This City is Ours" on BBC One.

Meanwhile, Dave reviews Sky's latest release from Chris O'Dowd, 'Small Town, Big Story', which has a surprising sci-fi edge to it, plus catching up with 'SAS Rogue Heroes' Season 2, and 'Dave Gorman’s Modern Life is Goodish'.

Welcome back to a new Geektown Behind The Scenes podcast. This week I’m chatting with two people - Shauna Llewellyn, the makeup department head, and Ryan Reed, the hair department head, behind Paramount+'s film ‘Star Trek: Section 31’ film, starring Michelle Yeoh, which is out not on Paramount+, and 'Star Trek: Discovery'.
In 'Star Trek: Section 31', Emperor Philippa Georgiou (Yeoh) joins a secret division of Starfleet tasked with protecting the United Federation of Planets and must face the sins of her past.
Shauna and Ryan previously worked together on ‘Star Trek: Discovery’, which earned Shauna an Emmy nomination, so while familiar with the universe in ‘Star Trek: Section 31’, they got to explore a section in space that we haven't seen in any Star Trek universe. As the film is set outside of Starfleet space, there were no pre-existing looks, and the team could really explore and push the envelope, which was perfectly showcased in the club scenes featuring party hair and makeup looks from across space.
They also created multiple captivating looks for the main cast, including the two club looks for Rachel (Kacey Rohl), which are so different from her more natural look featured in the rest of the film that the audience can barely recognise her. For Michelle Yeoh's character, they also worked closely with her and the costume designer to create an edgy and glamorous look for a former ruthless empress unlike her clean star fleet member look from ‘Star Trek: Discovery’.
Shauna’s other previous work includes shows such as ‘Lost Girl’, ‘Killjoys’, ‘Private Eyes’ and ‘Frankie Drake Mysteries’, whilst Ryan has worked on ‘Pachinko’, ‘The Umbrella Academy’, ‘The Strain’, and ‘Defiance’. Their current project is the upcoming series, ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’.

We return with episode 447 of the Geektown Radio podcast, and this week, Dave is joined by Gray to discuss all the latest and TV, film, and gaming news & reviews!
Predictably for Gray, as it's the start of the year, that means his TV chat includes 'Traitors' and 'Traitors US' which both returned for new seasons. He also discusses the return of 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' for a second season, and the new 'Motherland' spin-off series 'Amandaland', and Channel 4's 'Patience'. Dave and Gray also heap high praise on 'High Potential', and rejoice over the return of 'Hacks' to the UK. Meanwhile, Dave discusses three new game releases - the city builder 'Foundation', RPG 'Kingdom Come: Deliverance II', and the return of the daddy of the turn-based strategy game, 'Civilization 7'. He also talks about the return of 'Invincible' to Prime Video, and reviews the Paramount+ movie 'Star Trek: Section 31'.
Over in the news updates, and we have more renewed and cancelled TV shows to run through including discovering (in a rather entertaining way!) that Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon seem to be teaming up again, and a favourite BBC crime drama looks like it could be returning for a new season. We also chat about the trailers for 'Fantastic Four' and the new 'Jurassic World' movie, Kiefer Sutherland starring in a Christmas film for Sky, the potential return of ‘Buffy The Vampire Slayer’, and lots more!

However, he also caught up on some new TV series including 'Paradise' and 'High Potential' on Disney+, along with new seasons of 'The Night Agent' on Netflix, and 'Severance' & 'Mythic Quest' on Apple TV+.
Over in the news updates, we have a stack of renewed and cancelled TV shows since we've been away including so frustrating cuts by Disney, some not unsurprising cancellations from Netflix, and a very surprising scrapping of a show by Apple!

It's the last Geektown Radio podcast of 2024, and Dave is back with Matt from Entertainment Talk and our "film reviewer" Gray to go through all of the results from The Geektown Awards 2024!
2024 has been another spectacular year for TV both in the UK and around the world. We've also seen a great selection of video game and films over the last 12 months, and The Geektown Awards gave visitors to our website the opportunity to vote on what they thought were the best, and which TV, films, and video games they were looking forward to in 2025. I want to give a big "Thank You!" to all the thousands of people who took the time to vote in the awards this year.
Whilst some categories gave results we could have guessed (I'm looking at you, "Most Anticipated Game Of 2025..."), there were some big surprises too. We also had some really close voting, with some of the top three spots having less than 1% between them in some places. We also have the shows which were voted this year's top ten TV series of all time!
If you want to know what was voted the best drama, comedy, procedural, sci-fi, fantasy, game, film and many other categories, or what people are looking forward to next year, just listen below!
