‘Broad City’ renewed for two more seasons; third season coming February 17
Broad City has gotten a fourth and fifth season before the third has even aired. As a big fan of the series, I’m fucking thrilled with this development. That’s it, just thrilled. Crying, shaking my fists thankfully at Sol, even as It burns my eyeballs and eradicates my vision. That thrilled.
Rachel Keller (‘Fargo’!) to star in X-Men spin-off TV show, ‘Legion’
Oh man, do I ever have a crush on Rachel Keller. She was fantastic in Fargo, and she is definitely provides the X-Men spin-off show, Legion a lure. To snag me. Right by my hormones-encrusted eyeballs. Also doesn’t hurt that Fargo mastermind Noah Hawley is writing and producing it.
Report: Nintendo’s new console “NX” to be revealed in June, released in October-November
Man. They’re really doing it, Nintendo. Aren’t they? I stubbornly want to dismiss every report about their upcoming system, since I just snagged their current one last Christmas. And the company ain’t never given me the Zelda on the system they promised, nor a new 3D Mario. Which chaps my ass! But alas, it appears I’m just going to have to #RockTheSerenityPrayer and accept this.

Poe Dameron Body Pillows are coming; The uh, *Something* Awakens
I love living in a Universe where Poe Dameron body pillows are a real thing. Like, really real. I’ll take two – one for the wife, one for me (though, I think she’d prefer a General Hux variant).
Hideo Kojima being inducted into DICE Hall of Fame; del Toro presenting award
Kojima! Year of Kojima! His acrimonious departure from Konami has only increased the amount of love that public has for the auteur. Get fired, create one of the best games of the year. Get fired, create your own company. Get fired, get inducted into a Hall of Fame.
‘Daredevil’ Season 2 dropping March 25th; same day as ‘Batman v Superman’
Man. Ain’t Matt Murdock a fucking glutton for a punishment. Or at least a sucker for a fight. News that the good brooding Catholic’s second season is dropping in March was met with much applause, but that wasn’t the whole story. Apparently Marvel is rolling out the season on the same day that Batman v Superman hits theaters (Guess which one I’m more excited for).
