What's everybody's most anticipated show of 2022? For short term I'm super excited for Peacemaker because Cena was the best part of The Suicide Squad while further in I'm really looking forward to Netflix's The Sandman.

Definitely Peacemaker.

But I have to be honest, I'm almost completely oblivious to any other new shows on the horizon.

All right I just looked up some previews and I am ready to reveal my most anticipated show of 2022.

I’m really looking forward to:

- the last episodes of Station Eleven and Yellowjackets
- the return of Righteous Gemstones, Search Party, and Euphoria
- mother fuckin TOAST OF TINSELTOWN
- that new Phil Lord and Chris Miller show, The Afterparty

and that’s all just in January!

But absolutely 100% the thing I’m anticipating the most and cannot wait for is the third season of ATLANTA in March.

I hope everyone has a better 2022 than they did 2021!

Definitely hyped the returns of shows that have taken a multi-year break. Atlanta, Gemstones, Barry, Avenue 5, Better Call Saul.

Not aware of much new stuff, but I've been waiting for Shantaram every since Johnny Depp bought the rights for the movie back in 2007 or something. It's now gonna be an AppleTV+ series. It could be awful, but I just want to see it.

Speaking of long lost TV shows now going to AppleTV+. The Tom Hanks/Spielberg produced Band of Brothers/Pacific follow up miniseries Masters of the Air was also bought by Apple. Was stoked to hear Cary Fukunaga is directing the first three episodes too. Fingers crossed that sees a 2022 release.

Speaking of AppleTV hopefully they get their Wool adaptation out this year. That has the potential to be a pretty cool series. Though I am still wondering how they're going to integrate the Shift stuff to it because there needs to be multiple revelations in the story before that stuff comes into play.

In order of anticipation, I 'm looking forward to
Euphoria S2 (HBO Max)
The Last of Us (HBO)
The Gilded Age (HBO)
LOTR (Amazon Prime)
The Witcher: Blood Origin (Netflix)
The Sandman (Netflix)
Stranger Things S4 (Netflix)
House of the Dragon (HBO Max)
and I guess Bridgerton S2 (Netflix)

I let you know me, see me. I gave you a rare gift, but you didn't want it.

Joe Gatto announces he is leaving Impractical Jokers https://www.instagram.com/p/CYLBnVXgrmn/

quote:

Hey, Everyone.

Sorry in advance for the long and more-serious-than-usual note below, I just wanted to let you all know that I will no longer be involved with Impractical Jokers.

Alongside my friends, I’ve devoted a decade of my life to building this franchise and couldn’t be prouder of what has been accomplished. However, due to some issues in my personal life, I have to step away. Bessy and I have decided to amicably part ways, so now I need to focus on being the best father and co-parent to our two incredible kids.

Outside of my family, my relationships with Murr, Q and Sal have been the most important in my life. I know they will continue to make the world laugh. And even though the four of us are the ones who you all see, this show is only possible due to the hard work of the talented crew members who work behind the scenes. I am very thankful to have worked with each and every one of them.

To all of the amazing fans, thank you for allowing me to make you laugh with Jokers. They say that laughter is the best medicine, and I hope I’ve been able to provide some of that over the last decade. Seeing you laugh has been my own medicine, particularly in these weird and difficult times we find ourselves.

As I work through the challenges I am facing, I hope to and am excited to create new ways to entertain you.

Much love,
Joe


Covid was the first nail in the coffin for Jokers, this may be the last.

Bumping this because I'm really curious how they're going to handle it if it goes long. There's a ridiculous shift in the second season and I'm wondering if they're going to follow it through. I liked it off and on in season 1 but Season 2 made me dump it faster than just about anything I've listened to. Season 1 was decent enough, even if it wasn't really special. The side stories were the best part and from the description I'm not sure if they're going to do any of them.

It'd be nice if one of these podcast-to-TV things worked out though. Limetown sucked, right? It may as well have come out on WhatTimeIsItRightNow.com and then I heard bad things so I never checked.

I have liked all seasons of Archive 81, for good or bad they have mixed things up each season.

Another series I would like to see would be Alice Isn’t Dead, I’m sure Jasika Nicole is free to star in it.

This loving sucks. Impractical Jokers is really stupid but it's made me laugh at dark times when nothing else did. I hope this isn't the end of the show for good, but it would also be weird to continue with one of the core few members gone.

We've Got To Go Back
Last of Us is the show I’m looking forward to the most, but could end up being an early 2023 show. Other new shoes like LOTR, The Gilded Age, Pam & Tommy, and Our Flag Means Death all have my interest.

Besides that lots of shows returning after missing 2021 like Barry, The Crown, Avenue 5, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Righteous Gemstones, and Ozark.

It's weird that John Cena became a legitimately funny comedic actor. It makes me wonder what the Fast and Furious producers were thinking when they hired him to play a boring stonefaced antagonist.

It's got a lot of melodrama, but it's surprisingly gripping if you like heist stuff and don't hate it getting a little stupid at times. There's a lot of neat characters bouncing off of each other. It wanders a bit but the first 2 season as a whole are definitely good. Can't speak for the rest since I haven't started season 3 yet and I've heard mixed things, but it's a fun enough show.

Oh, and since I'm seeing it mentioned, is Dollface good? I passed over it a few times on Hulu.

Also heads up for fans of deeply calm British TV that The Repair Shop is now a Discovery Channel show with the first 3 season up on Discovery+ and the 4th running now.
