Now, imagine inheriting a huge rural property, full of history and many spaces to be enjoyed?

A paradise!

When journalist Samantha (Rose Mclver) and her husband Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) become owners of the Woodstone family mansion, they both see an opportunity to transform the place into an inn to make “easy” money.

What neither of them imagine is that a group of eight ghosts are very committed to making this plan not come to fruition.

Everything changes when, by accident, Sam gains the ability to see his invisible tenants, the first person to see them in years. A surprise for her and the others, but especially for Jay, who needs to support her on this new journey.

But is it good?

The series produced by CBS is the American version of the series of the same name produced by the BBC in the United Kingdom.

I’m not in a position to compare the two, as I’ve only watched the Americanized version, so I’ll reserve my right to only talk about the 2021 series.

Starting with the main couple, although it is a little difficult to buy into their relationship due to the chemistry that is not so evident at the beginning, the more we watch, the more we become convinced of the love that exists between them.

Jay is a down-to-earth chef who always takes things on the practical side. Samantha is a writer who has dreams and big plans.

This opposing picture makes the couple achieve the perfect balance, as well as making their dynamics even more interesting, when Jay decides to believe in Sam and in the existence of ghosts around the house.

Ghosts are perfect, each in their own way. From nativists to Vikings to hipsters and stock market entrepreneurs, there is a wide range of stories and personalities to be explored throughout the episodes.

The highlights, in my opinion, are Alberta (Danielle Pinnock), a singer who believes she was murdered, Captain Isaac Higgintoot (Brandon Scott Jones), killed during the war and Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky), the former lady of the house who doesn’t agree with the customs of modern women.

These are by far the funniest and have the best ghostly situations. Whether it’s the cause of death or the jokes from beyond the grave, they carry much of the humor with them.

The others, however, leave nothing to be desired. The difference in age, personality and eras lived bring a very special touch to the script.

For example, a Viking who becomes addicted to reality shows and starts marathoning without his friend. Current fights that certainly wouldn’t affect a Viking in 800AD.

Some -not so frequent- characters are also added to bring more depth to the plot or introduce us to more about the non-living core.

The series has two complete seasons and, according to the Deadline portal, it has already been renewed for a third season, with no premiere date yet.

In Brazil, all 40 episodes can be watched on the Paramount+ streaming platform.

According to Disney Branded Television, the series will be influenced by the five most popular “Goosebumps” books.

Goosebumps Fun Facts

In the works since April 2020, the series will contain 10 episodes and is expected to premiere in the first half of 2023.

Nick Stoller and Rob Letterman serve as writers and executive producers of the new series. As does Neal H. Moritz, producer of the 2015 and 2018 adaptations, who also serves as executive producer of the new version.

Goosebumps has sold over 350 million copies worldwide, making it the second best-selling book series in history after Harry Potter.

Due to its great success, the books were first adapted in Canada in 1995, three years after the release of volume 1.

The cast of the Canadian series included actors such as Ryan Gosling (La La Land) and Hayden Christensen (Star Wars – Episode II).

We still don’t know what to expect from this upcoming adaptation, but we hope it will give you goosebumps throughout its episodes.

Although it is not news to fans who have been speculating about the character’s sexuality for years, the video comes to make it official: Velma Dinkley is part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Other attempts to “bring the character out of the closet”

Director and screenwriter, James Gunn had already stated on his Twitter that, initially, Velma would be a lesbian in the live-action Scooby-Doo released in 2001.

However, Warner Bros. ended up changing this arc and giving the character a boyfriend in the 2002 sequel.

Referring to the phrase “seasons and a movie” said several times throughout the seasons, it seems that this prophecy is even closer to being fulfilled.

Despite suggesting the return of the entire cast (with the exception of Chevy Chase), there is still no official information about who will return for the film. According to Variety, there is also no confirmation that Donald Glover and Yvette Nicole Brown will join the cast, but there are expectations for a special appearance. Will we have another episode of Troy & Abed in the morning?

The plot follows Tiffy and Leon, two people who have nothing in common except the fact that they live in the same house and sleep in the same bed, but at opposite times.

Since they never meet, conversations and rules are made through notes and post-its spread around the rooms, making communication very direct and analog.

With Jessica Brown Findlay and Anthony Welsh in the cast, the series has already caused controversy due to the difference in the characterization of the main character. This is because Tiffy Moore is a plus-size girl and this detail seems to have been forgotten by the directors of the series.

Fans of the best-seller can only wait and see if other aspects of the book will be portrayed correctly or if this will be yet another disastrous adaptation of literary works for the screen.

Based on the game of the same name by Sony Interactive Entertainment, the story will take place 20 years after the near extinction of the human race and the emergence of other beings on Earth. The plot is based on the relationship between the main characters and a single objective: to take Ellie out of the quarantine zone.

Set to the song “Alone and Forsaken” by Hank Williams, the video shows us a little of everything that Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bela Ramsey) will have to face in an apocalyptic future to stay safe and complete their mission.

The series is scheduled to be released in 2023 and, as shared by Craig Mazin (Chernobyl), creator and screenwriter of the adaptation, filming ended on June 11, 2022.

In an interview with Esquire Magazine, the screenwriter said that when he saw Cillian in person, “he wasn’t Thomas Shelby.” What made him change his mind, however, was a message from the Irishman saying “remember, I’m an actor,” referring to how easily he can change his personality to suit a role.

The text message was essential in changing the course of Murphy’s career, who, in 2019, was considered to play the new agent 007 in the film “No Time to Die.”

Peaky Blinders was released on September 12, 2013 on BBC Two and has five seasons. Pre-production for its sixth season was postponed due to the new coronavirus pandemic and there is still no forecast for its return.
