Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2022 October 23

It’s a very happy, full table this week!  Those who weren’t happy with Jodie Whittaker can be happy today as she is leaving the role, and fans can be happy that we get a new episode of Doctor Who.  The kids will be happy, as Miraculous returns for a few episodes from its fifth season. The House of the Dragon’s season hasn’t ended, so watchers can happily meet the Black Queen.  The fang-bangers can be happy with a new episode for both their shows, as Let the Right One In lets the cast learn what else is going on.  Louis and Molloy read Claudia’s diaries in the Interview with a Vampire.  The Handmaid’s Tale give June an opportunity while Serena loses some.  Andor continues to keep its secrets.  Stargirl finishes it’s two parter with a new powerset.  American Horror Story gives us two episodes, no NYPD, and newly rooted evil.  Lower Decks tells us nothing.  Pennyworth does some gardening.  Jonah and the bots watch The Mask, (not the Jim Carey one) in their Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2022 October 9

We have a bit more of an idea of the week’s offerings.  House of the Dragon tries to get in on the competitions game with an episode about the Lord of the Tides.  Interview with the Vampire teaches Louis (and us) the rules.  The Handmaid’s Tale tells of dangerous missions and power moves.  Andor remains shrouded in mystery, but we know Stargirl has Courtney and Cameron are spotted.  Star Trek: Lower Decks, She-Hulk, and The Lord of the Rings also stay quiet.  Pennyworth at least tells us he will be dealing with a precious metal tree.  On See, we see a small infiltration of Sibeth’s camp.  For the kids, Miraculous, My Hero Academia, and The Owl House also drop episodes.

As we enter the spookiest month of the year, we also get a returning tale of a batty butler, as Pennyworth opens its third season with three episodes.  It joins House of the Dragon, Andor, She-Hulk, Star Trek: Lower Decks, and Rings of Power is leaving us wondering what the episodes will be about.  The Handmaid’s plot is that June and Luke take a trip as Serena starts a new job.  Stargirl is neglecting her job at the JSA,  In See, the bombs start blowing as Tormada and Siberth attack Pennsa.

Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2022 June 12

We are in a post-description era for shows, as of the nine shows that are dropping this week, only two are giving us a description, though we are getting a few titles that might help.  We start with a return of Evil for their third season, where they encounter a Demon of Death.  Riverdale does clue us in that they are going to hold a serial killer convention to catch a serial killer.  The crew of The Orville face a morality paradox and the Boys take a last look on their world of lies (based on their titles.)  Miraculous Ladybug starts season five, Ms. Marvel and Obi-Wan, and Strange New Worlds each have their new episodes, but without any descriptions.  This is understandable because either you’re watching the show even if it were a forty minute test pattern, or you don’t care.  The Flash is happy to tell us what’s going on, as The Flash begins working with the new speedster and Cecile levels up.

Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2022 June 5

This week we have a new premier of Marvel’s Ms. Marvel.  Disney has given the character a bit of a glow up, so it seems my hopes of a direct comic translation were a bit of a stretch.  If you prefer the Default Classics, Superman & Lois disagree and that makes them lose.  The Flash leaves the lights off, where he might find The Orville who is also exploring the shadows.  Obi-Wan Kenobi doesn’t give us a description, joining The Boys, Young Justice, and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds that way.  Finally, if you have hang out with the bots, Mystery Science Theater 3000 watches Doctor Mordrid.

Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2022 May 29

We have a strange new list as the previous seasons shows are disappearing and we’re joined by some new one.  Did you finish Stranger Things?  I didn’t yet.  I did catch Strange New Worlds, just in time for pon farr and a throwback episode.  Riverdale considers a labor union.  Superman and Lois pick up with their big reveal.  Obi-Wan gives us a third episode and The Boys show up with three episodes, but no descriptions.  The Orville returns to New Horizons with an androids dream episode.

Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2022 May 22

Riverdale continues to be as unlike the classic Archie comics as possible.  Better Call Saul shows Jimmy and Kim learning what happens with plans.  The Flash features Old Man Barry.  The Enterprise faces a malevolent force in Strange New Worlds, (I would say ‘again’, but this is a prequel.)  Mystery Science Theatre 3000 watches a bad sequel.  The Blacklist ends its season as they attempt to apprehend The Plague.1  If this isn’t the sort of television you are a looking for, you are probably on the wrong site, but there are also some Stranger Things to take in.
