THE WALKING DEAD, THE PUNISHER, Paltrow and She-Ra

Today we're talking about being annoyed and bored by The Walking Dead, the status of the next season of The Punisher on Netflix, a fake oops planted by another actor and a classic cartoon is being revived by Netflix!

After that suspicious mid-season finale of The Walking Dead, it would seem that we're all pretty tired of this bullshit season full of shooting, stupid-ass facial close-ups that make no sense except to fill time and just a nonsensical collective of very little story advancement. And to be honest, I had counted at a minimum, four times Negan could have been easily dispatched, like in the mid-season finale when Rick had him on the ground AND had Lucille in his possession. But the writers have kept him alive to annoy the living shit out of viewers.

With that said, I guess I'm not alone because the midseason finale has seen the lowest ratings since season 2, netting barely 8 million bored but faithful viewers.

I can't tell if they're just mailing it in because Robert Kirkman is leaving AMC and taking his production company and show to Amazon or what? Yes,

The Punisher was renewed for a second season on Netflix which is sweet because as far as I'm concerned, this was the best Marvel on Netflix show they've had. But don't get me wrong, aside from Iron Fist, the others all rank a close second.

Gwyneth Paltrow "let slip" that she might be donning an Iron Man suit of armor in the upcoming Avengers 4 film. She "accidentally" shared a few pics on her Instagram account before pulling them down, showing her wearing a motion capture suit.

I guess we're not rid of her yet! But this also lines up with some comic stories where she wore a suit of armor called Rescue.

"Let slip," riiight.
