More details will
be released soon, but here are the basics…
The current concept
builds on an audiobook foundation. Each episode will use one
of Bob’s essays. A format has been debated and tested and formed.
But, we anticipate that some changes may take place as experience
arrives and feedback comes in.
Jay and Justin have
been phenomenal in this process. Jay has done some outstanding
work on the logo and art design. Justin has been brilliant,
using his talents to create original music for the show.
We anticipate a
debut of The Essays with Dumb Old Bob in mid to late
May.
I really enjoyed
the first film, so news that My Spy: The Eternal City
is on the way is very welcome news. Adding
to Dave Bautista and Chloe Coleman seems
to be a return from Kristen Schaal along with Ken Jeong plus
the arrival of Anna Faris.
I critiqued NBC
when roughly a month ago, they announced Kelly Clarkson and
Peyton Manning joining Olympic coverage. Like both of them.
They’re fine. But neither motivates me to watch The Games in
any way, and it seemed like a desperate move to me and a cry
for attention. This
article from William Hughes for The
A.V. Club heads down the path of Snoop Dogg wandering around
Paris for NBC, plans to put heart monitors on family members,
and a network facing financial troubles from the product. It’s
a good, funny read.
When I sat down
to watch the first Sonic movie, I wasn’t expecting much. I was
hoping for a mindless, fun film. I got an exceptional, really
fun film. Same for the second movie. So, TV show and third movie
on the way, looking
forward to Idris Elba and more of the Sonic
world.
