I just wanted to say that Moon Knight is stupid and Netflix making a Moon Knight show is stupid.

Moon Knight is one of those characters I've always liked for reasons I can't exactly explain, along with Wonder Man and Vision. Maybe it's just because I enjoyed a couple prominent storylines he was in when I read comics as a kid. The question is if this is going to be the Moon Knight I remember enjoying, or the multiple personality Moon Knight, or the other Bendis multiple personality Moon Knight. Just please let it not be from that series that was basically a parody of Spawn.

If they're gonna make anything related to Moon Knight it's almost assuredly going to be based on Ellis' run, it'd be stupid not to, it's the first time anyone has given two shits about that character in like over a decade. I would rather want that than an Iron Fist show personally, but hey I'll take both Hakkesshu fucked around with this message at 17:15 on Oct 14, 2015 |

I'd hazard a guess that they're going to at least play up the whole multiple personality thing just try and head off any "Batman rip-off" comparisons.

Presumably he won't be having conversations with the Spider-Man, Captain America, and Wolverine that live in his head, because they can't afford those cameos.

Having Khonshu on his shoulder like in the Charlie Huston run would be enough crazy for tv, methinks. Although then people might call him a Birdman ripoff.  E: I wonder if they could afford Mark Hamill to voice him now that he's back making Star Wars movies.

Walking Deads numbers are down from last year, and I don't think Fear the Walking Dead has been doing too well after an impressive start. Anyways, the Moon Knight Netflix rumor is part of a story that originally was an April Fools joke, so I'd call bullshit on it unless it comes directly from Marvel or Netflix directly.

FTWD broke every viewership record for a first season cable show there was. TWD is down a bit but if draws more viewers than any five cable shows combined.

Make note, TWD got a 7.4 in demo rating which beat out every other entertainment telecast (excludes sports and awards and poo poo like that) since the start of the fall season, this includes all network and cable shows. That number also beat network hot drama darling Empire by 10%. TWD isn't in trouble and can ride these declines (if they even continue) for probably 4 or 5 more seasons if they wanted to.

If only there was a metaphor to describe a lifeless, soulless show that won't die and keeps shambling on.

TWD regularly beats Sunday football which is just unheard of. Regardless of your feelings about the show, it is extremely interesting in the way that it completely confounded the conventional wisdom about cable vs network and in a lot of ways is driving the current move toward serious cable drama and comedy.

I didn't really watch the show, but I love it when people say this unknowingly about Fear The Walking Dead because they're comparing it to the unheard of numbers that Walking Dead gets. Apparently being the highest rated first season of any cable show ever is not an impressive start. Back to the drawing board! Walking Dead's numbers being down from impossibly high to slightly less than impossibly high is also a sure sign of doom and gloom.

No way, if Bernthal is popular in DD the logical next step is his own series. Technically the Netflix shows are their own thing for now, theyve said there is crossover potential down the road, I just don't see them jumping a newly christened TV character to a film. Frank Grillo (Crossbones) said that they wanted him to possibly be in a Netflix show and it sort of lined up with the T-Bolts rumors.

This year's Walking Dead return didn't seem as well promoted. Last year I was reading about it everywhere, this time you had to be watching AMC it seemed like.

In the most unexpected superhero tv news of the week, Charles Xavier's son with crazy hair deserves a chance more than [your favorite street level hero] http://marvel.com/news/tv/25281/fx_networks_orders_pilot_for_legion?linkId=17951861 At first I wondered if Legion is going to solve crimes paired with a sardonic female officer, but Noah Hawley is involved in production - that guy has spun the idea of a Fargo tv series into gold, so it might turn out alright.

That may or may not be telling.

As much as I like to poo poo on Fox for their creative choices, a Hellfire Club show could actually be pretty good and self contained. I don't know how you do Legion outside of the X-Universe though....

I wonder if they even keep Emma Frost, considering the show's premise is obviously talking about her. Legion is easy, because being Xavier's son doesn't even matter.

FXX, the newest network, launched in September 2013 and is carried in more than 78 million homes....FXX is also the exclusive cable home to The Simpsons, the longest-running comedy in TV history, the late night animated block Animation Domination, and acquired hit series such as In Living Color, Mad About You and Parks and Recreation. Though good on Paul Reiser for getting Mad About You back in syndication.
