Child’s Play
Chucky hashes Mr Potato Head on a new poster from Bloody Disgusting.
Sesame Street

The Haunting of Hill House/Bly Manor
In a recent interview with The Wrap, Carla Gugino hinted she may return for the second season of The Haunting of Hill House, AKA The Haunting of Bly Manor.
Well, I can’t say anything definitive at this point, other than Mike and I really love collaborating and working together and any opportunity where a schedule allows for us to do that, we will, and I would be honored to… So we’re talking a lot about it and we’ll just see if all schedules allow. All I can say is I’m very excited for Season 2 and to see what Mike does.
Jessica Jones
Series creator Melissa Rosenberg described Foolkiller as “a very different kind of villain” in a recent interview with TV Line.
[We wanted] Jessica to have to deal with a very different kind of villain. If you have a superpowered villain, and a superpowered hero, the rules don’t apply. You can throw that guy across the ocean, whatever you need to do. With a civilian, you can’t just go punching people in the face. There are rules, there are laws… which forces her to really step up in a very pragmatic, grounded way.
Stranger Things

It’s 1985 in Hawkins, Indiana, and summer’s heating up. School’s out, there’s a brand new mall in town, and the Hawkins crew are on the cusp of adulthood. Romance blossoms and complicates the group’s dynamic, and they’ll have to figure out how to grow up without growing apart. Meanwhile, danger looms.
