Hey Ghosts fans! We are back with a brand new episode of Ghosts and my head is still reeling from the last episode. Luckily, this episode wastes no time in jumping in right where we left off last week (and it is St. Patrick's Day). As Chris' body is taken away by the corner Jay cannot believe his luck with Chris dying on property but more specifically at his restaurant which is definitely not good for business. Sam is blushing at the hot Australian stripper while Isaac is freaking out that his crush is now able to see him. When Isaac does work up the nerve to speak to Chris he tells him his name is Ice in a hilarious moment. Meanwhile, Jay's cousin Sunil is visiting and he just got dumped by his girlfriend. When Jay leaves the room, Hetty enters wishing everyone a happy St. Patrick's Day and to the shock of her and the other ghosts, Sunil can see her! We learn that her ghost power is being able to be seen just on St. Patrick's Day as she has overcome her hate of the Irish and embraced her heritage. Sunil asks her to lunch much to Jay and Sam's objections but they quickly cave, giving Hetty an opportunity she did not have when she was alive. The lunch is very sweet and Hetty and Sunil bond. He even asks her out again but when she gently turns him down he goes to touch her and she runs away and walks through the door, revealing she is a ghost. When Sunil runs to tell Jay and Sam they try to act as if they had no idea but they aren't fooling anyone. Hetty manages to give Sunil the confidence he needs to get back in the dating world and Jay points out how his family keeps falling in love with ghosts. The episode manages to give a lesson behind humor which it does well often. Pictured (L-R): Utkarsh Ambudkar as Jay. Photo: Bertrand Calmeau/CBS ©2024 CBS Broadcasting, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Getting back to Isaac and Chris, while trying to play it cool Isaac loses his cool when he sees Nigel and Chris bond over dinosaurs. He tells Chris his feelings which sends him straight into the arms of Nigel. Unfortunately their romance and Chris' time at Woodstone is short lived because thanks to his ghost power (opening his parachute and being able to fly) he can leave the property and decides to leave forever. Not sure why he wouldn't just disappear like Pete though. When Nigel comes looking for Chris, Isaac spares his feelings and says that Chris was sucked off to heaven, which shows great character growth for Isaac. Another great episode of Ghosts, and I do not think we've seen the last of Chris. I love how much of Jay's family we are seeing this season as well as the clever ways Jay is getting to see and interact with the Ghosts more. What did you think? Drop a comment!

We are back for another lesson in comedy with the staff at Abbott Elementary. The episode opens with a work personality potluck that Janine put together. I've never heard of a personality potluck but I want to take part in one now. You have to guess who brought in what dish which of course Melissa quickly does. The potluck ends in a hug much to Janine's delight. Barbara is hosting a karaoke night for the group and Ava cannot make it because she finally has a date with O'Shon. When we arrive at karaoke it is nothing but pure fun and comedy. Mr. Johnson apparently told Quincy Jones he sings he wants to sing (Mr. Johnson singing the Oscar winning "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" took me out) and Jacob sees a guy he think he is cute. The problem is his ex-boyfriend Zack is there with his new boyfriend. Of course that sends Jacob into a tailspin but it was enough of a push to flirt with a new guy and and he got his number. So proud of Jacob, its time he got lucky in love. One of the side stories is Simon and Erika showing up to karaoke and bringing their on again, off again drama. They hilariously sing off key but end up breaking up again before the episode is over and are crying at the karaoke bar. One line that stuck out is when Simon told Jacob everyone down at the district has the wrong idea about him. If you remember a few episodes ago Jacob asking for extra help at the school at the district meeting did not go over well. I feel like this will be touched on again down the line sometime. We finally get to see O'Shon's game when he takes out Ava but she royally screws it up by making too many jokes when O'Shon tries to get to know her. It was really painful to watch and I just wanted Ava to stop showboating. When O'Shon decides to skip out on dessert and call Ava out she finally changes her tune. They join the gang at karaoke and I am rooting for them even though I know it won't last. Matthew Law (O'Shon) was just cast in a new Netflix project. I'm definitely going to enjoy every cute moment we get with them until then. Someimes Ava can come off insufferable for me but this episode did not give me that vibe. Meanwhile Gregory has missed most of the night because he has been doing rideshare to make extra money. He was able to come in right at the end while Janine was ironically singing Always on Time by Ashanti and Ja Rule. It was a very cute scene. I definitely want to see more of Janine and Gregory outside of the group and on romantic dates. We end the episode with a group song and it just show cases how much chemistry this cast has together, even with the guest stars. Another solid episode of Abbott Elementary, no notes.

Erika Alexander, legal eagle Max from Living Single is the latest superstar to join Tracy Morgan and Tina Fey’s (yet to be titled) NBC pilot. Tracy will be in front of the camera while Tina will serve as one of the executive producers. Also involved behind the scenes as previously reported is Robert Carlock and Sam Means. Tracy will play a former football baller who is in desperate need of an image reboot. Erika Alexander steps into the role of Monica, Reggie’s (Tracy Morgan) childhood sweetheart from Brooklyn. She also happens to co-parent with him and is also his agent and business manager, despite breaking up. We reported earlier that Daniel Radcliffe will star as Arthur Tobin, an award-winning filmmaker who moves into Reggie’s mansion to film a documentary. I would never have thought I would see Max and Harry Potter together, but I am so ready for it. You can catch Erika Alexander on Invasion streaming on AppleTV+ before this pilot drops. Alexander is an accomplished actress with SAG and Independent Spirit Award nominations. She is also no stranger to film; she starred in Cord Jefferson’s American Fiction . In 2023, Alexander also co-starred in the film  Earth Mama. As I mentioned, we love her and know her best for her role as Maxine Shaw in Yvette Lee Bowser’s series  Living Single . You would have also noticed her in  The Cosby Show ,  Get Out ,  Black Lightning  and  Wu-Tang: An American Saga . Erika Alexander has a company she co-founded called Color Farm Media. Deadline was first to announce the news of Erika Alexander’s casting for the pilot. How about it fans? Are you excited to see Erika Alexander back on your screens? We know she can bring the funny and the drama, so this role seems like a perfect fit for her many talents.

This is a pen. We are headed back to Olympus for another season of our favorite trio (still love you Harry, Ron and Hermione). Disney has made fans day and renewed Percy Jackson for a third season and season two hasn't even aired yet. On top of that we have not even seen a proper trailer. This shows the confidence the House of Mouse has in the franchise. Percy Jackson originally premiered on December 19, 2023, and has been a ratings hit for Mickey’s app. According to sources, the show ranked in the top five most watched shows. The series follows demi-god pre-teen Percy Jackson as he discovers the history of his origins. The Greek King of the Gods Zeus is uncle, and the King of the Sea Poseidon is his father. After learning the truth and being sent away for his own safety he embarks on a journey with his two best friends Grover and Annabeth, to return Zeus’ lightning bolts to him. What happens is a fantastical tale of friendship, loyalty and love. The series would not be the hit it is for Disney (Disney+) without the chemistry of the three leads, Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood). When casting was first announced Leah Jeffries faced online bullying from so called “fans” because of her race but those people were quickly silenced as she made the character of Annabeth Chase her own. Now we are watching this young trio grow up before our very eyes. With the announcement of season three (again before a trailer drop for season two is insane) fans are already wondering if we will see Percy and Annabeth enter their couple era. Only time will tell. So, what do we know about season 3? The season will follow the book of course, specifically The Titan’s Curse, the third book in the series. It makes perfect sense. Disney Branded Television president Ayo Davis spoke about the early renewal stating, “From the moment  Percy Jackson and the Olympians  debuted, it was clear this series had struck a chord with fans of all ages. With Season 2 set to premiere this December, we’re thrilled to announce that Percy’s journey will continue with a third season. Huge thanks to our incredible cast and creative team, our partners at 20th Television, and our visionary and talented producers who continue to bring Rick Riordan’s world to life with such depth and imagination.” Rick Riordan, author of the books added his thoughts, “We’re so grateful to be continuing the story of  Percy Jackson  on Disney+. This third season will be new territory for the screen, bringing fan favorites like the Hunters of Artemis and Nico di Angelo to life for the first time. It’s a huge sign of commitment from Disney and speaks volumes about the enthusiasm with which the fandom has embraced the TV show. Thank you, demigods worldwide!” How are you feeling about this news?

Karla Mosley is no stranger to daytime television aka soap operas but more commonly referred to as “stories.” She is riding high, enjoying the ultra-success of the new soap opera to launch in years centered around an affluent black family named the Duprees on CBS’ Beyond the Gates. Beyond the Gates premiered on February 24 and is a ratings hit. Karla plays Dani Dupree, the youngest daughter of Vernon and Anita Dupree, the matriarchs of a gated community in the DC area. Dani is going through a lot with her ex-husband Bill Hamilton leaving her for a much younger woman Hailey Hamilton. All this drama is not new to Karla as she starred on the Bold and the Beautiful for many years as Maya. During the later years of Karla’s run as Maya the character was rewritten to be transgender. Karla initially was unsure if she would do the role justice. In a recent interview she stated, “When my boss asked me if I would do this story, I first was going to say no because it felt inappropriate for me to play that role as a cis woman. I do identify as queer, but I’m not transgender.” Mosley remembers the storyline taking place around the same time Caitlyn Jenner transitioned and her friends gave her some advice saying, “if you don’t accept this story, this story won’t be told.” After the conversation with her friends, she continued on Bold and the Beautiful. According to Mosely, Maya is in her rearview mirror, and she is focused on the historic Beyond the Gates. She said she “would love to play a role with the kind of gravitas and importance that Maya had for sure.” However, she will not play a character that is transgender again out of respect for the community.

While MY DEAD FRIEND ZOE is touted as a dark comedy drama, at times, the film holds itself to being more on the dramatic side, infused with moments of humor, to remind us that life in all its unpredictability can be flooded with multiple emotions at once. But, what I also like to think is that it highlights that, more often than not, we find ourselves laughing at the challenges we face in our individual and collective experiences, in part, to keep from crying. No doubt, both theories can be true, and the film’s walk through pain and loss proves it. Inspired by true events, the film is the directorial debut of Kyle Hausmann-Stokes, a former U.S. Army infantry paratrooper and Iraqi War Bronze Star veteran.  My Dead Friend Zoe, scheduled for its theatrical release on February 28, follows the story of Merit, played by The Walking Dead alum, Sonequa Martin-Green, as a U.S. Army war-time veteran who is haunted by the presence of Zoe (Natalie Morales), her dead best friend from the Army, with whom she served alongside in Afghanistan. Despite the persistence of her VA group counselor, played the venerable Morgan Freeman, the tough love of her mother (Gloria Reuben) and the levity of an unexpected love interest, Merit's ride or die-dysfunctional friendship with Zoe keeps the duo seemingly insulated from the world and its nagging bitter truths. That is until Merit's estranged grandfather (Ed Harris) -- living out his days at the family's Oregon lake house -- begins to lose his way and needs the one thing he refuses...help. Merit steps into provide unexpected assistance to her childhood hero, only to be confronted by her own needs to heal. At its core, My Dead Friend Zoe can be viewed as the proverbial buddy film about a complicated friendship, a family divided on the way to move forward, and the complex ways in which we all process grief. However, at times, the film pushes itself to be so much more. Though slow paced at the start, with its often reflective, contemplative scenes and thoughtful dialogue, set in a mix of flashback-present day sequences, when you are hit with the message in the back half of the film, the message hits hard. The jolt of which got to me, in part, because I have a father who also served his country in war; and while he lived to return to tell the tale from four tours in Vietnam, watching this film play out, I came to truly appreciate the struggle to watch the ensuing aftermath of that experience and how it manifests itself in the lives that remain. Underneath the quiet drama that unfolds in similar fashion to films like On Golden Pond (1981), A River Runs Through It (1992), and Legends of the Fall (1994),  lies a power story trying to make sense of what its means to exist within a family and a friendship, and our responsibility to each.  The film features beautiful sweeping shots of nature, particularly those of the Pacific northwest landscape, and a narrative delivered in a deliberate manner to strip away any misread nuance. The cinematography’s emphasis on the beauty of the natural world creates a serene and poignant atmosphere, and offers viewers a beautiful canvas on which to explore themes of family, love, survivor’s guilt, and the passage of time.  Martin-Green’s portrayal of Merit showcases the depth of a friendship forged against the backdrop of military conflict and the complexity of an estranged family trying to ignore the inevitable in their own lives. Coupled with Harris’ depth and emotional resonance as Merit’s grandfather battling Alzheimer’s, the two characters navigate their differing war experiences with a subtle humor that is key to the film’s emotional impact. And, while their experiences on the battlefield are separated by age, years, and gender, there is a uniquely shared understanding of past events that shape their approach to the pain of the present.   In the end, we, civilians, may never come to fully comprehend.  If you know, you know. For her performance, Morales’ Zoe cuts through the heaviness of each scene with the quick thinking, playful banter, and clever one-liners. She portrays that quintessential sure-to-get-you-in-trouble, but-will-have-epic-stories-to-tell best friend. You know the one. Every friend group has that one life of the party standout, whose presence desperately lingers long after they have left the building. Though brief, Zoe’s time on canvas provides that subtle contrast to Merit’s more focused, by-the-book demeanor. The character delivers humorous quips in tense situations often to lighten the mood and showcase her emotional intelligence to see what others cannot, or perhaps will not, allow themselves to see in the wake of loss —  that it is, in fact, okay to not be okay. A creative take on the post-war experience and a tribute to veterans of all generations, My Dead Friend Zoe should leave you, if you allow it, to descend into your own quiet reflection long after the credits stop rolling. At the very least, knowing that the therapy group scenes featuring real-life vets sharing pieces of their stories will give you pause to consider that art truly is the inevitable imitation of life. Co-written by  Hausmann-Stokes and  A.J. Bermudez,  MY Dead Friend Zoe  first premiered in March 2024 at the SXSW Film Festival, where it won the Audience Award.  Find out if you agree when the film drops later this month. Though, I would suggest having a box of Kleenex handy, just in case, when you do. The effects of Love and War are never for the faint-hearted.

Hacks has become a hit with fans over the last three seasons and shows no signs of slowing down. In fact Max has recently released the trailer for the upcoming fourth season of its hit show. The season will drop on April 10 on the streaming giant. Hacks   is a comedy-drama TV series that premiered on HBO Max in 2021. The show follows on the quirky partnership between Deborah (played by Jean Smart), a veteran, but aging stand-up comedian, and Ava (played by Hannah Einbinder), a young, struggling comedy writer who has fallen out of favor in the industry. Debra, who has built her career on performing in Las Vegas, is facing a decline in her relevance as her audience and career opportunities dwindle. Ava, on the other hand, is a disgraced writer who needs a job to salvage her career. The two come together out of shared interests. "Hacks" is loved by fans for its sharp writing, strong performances, especially from Jean Smart, and its mix of humor and heart. Deborah and Ava are back at it and it looks like their relationship gets even more complicated in the new season. Deborah was already struggling with her career last season and Ava, finally was finding her footing as a writer in the world of comedy. Of course the highlight of this show is their relationship and the chemistry they have with one another. This new season (based on the trailer) will go even further into Ava and Deborah's dynamic. Lots of laughs and emotions are sure to make for an interesting season. The show is constantly winning all the acting awards and based on this trailer, more awards are guaranteed to be on the horizon. What did you think of the trailer? Drop a comment!

As the year begins to unwind I find myself, like many others, feeling a bit nostalgic for simpler times. So as I do often, I’m turning to some old faves to get me through the holiday/seasonal blues. Being an older millennial, it's hard to believe that my favorite tv show growing up is already nearly thirty years old, but alas, time doesn’t lie. But how much does this old fav stand up to today's standard?  When the relatively new network, WB, premiered it’s newest show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer on March 7th, 1997, no one could have anticipated that nearly thirty years later, it would still be drawing in new viewers daily. With BtVS still spawning off new works like the recent Audible hit Slayers: A Buffyverse Story  and all sorts of fan led podcasts.  BtVS came on my screen twenty-seven years ago, when there weren’t many butt kicking ladies, taking down bad guys. Outside of Xena and the occasional contestants on American Gladiator, I can’t really recall any live action shows where the main character was female and taking down men twice her size. To see a high school girl, kick DEMON butt? Now that got my attention. It started a wave of female led shows, where the main character wasn’t just hanging around trying to get some guy to date her, or hiding in the shadows of her family. BtVS paved the way for shows like Veronica Mars, Alias and Charmed, which all featured strong female characters, solving crimes and fighting evil. I recently rewatched the show and although there are some pretty cringy parts, (like when Cordelia asks a black student if her hair is real, while trying to touch it!), you can see the growth of society and the way we’ve grown a bit more aware. Things like Xander’s toxic behavior whenever Buffy gets a new man, or Cordelia’s overall obliviousness to the world around her, probably wouldn’t go unchecked by audiences now, if it were to air as is in 2024.  However, some of the problems Buffy and her friends faced, still ring true today.  How many of us haven’t felt invisible either at work or school, heck even within our own families? Episodes like season one’s Out of Sight, Out of Mind  deals with just that, while also exploring the flip side of that coin and discussing what it feels like to be “popular” and having “friends” but still feeling lonely. In an age where access to human interaction/contact is at our fingertips, many in society still feel very isolated and alone, unseen and unheard. They may not be turning into invisible people like poor ole Marcy did, but that doesn’t mean the feeling isn’t similar or relatable.  In The Body , a season five standout, it showed us that even a slayer isn’t immune to grief, when Buffy and the gang grapple with the loss of Buffy’s mother, Joyce, due to normal human medical issues. Grief is a familiar feeling for most people so the theme isn’t completely unrelatable. Due to Joyce’s place within the show, she had her own interactions/relationships with the other characters, which allowed the  writers to show grief from many different aspects. The grief of Buffy and Dawn (the daughters) is completely different from not only each other, but that of Spike’s grief, who saw Joyce as a sudo mother figure and friend. Willow’s struggle with her own grief in losing a woman who’d been in her life for 5 years at that point, but also trying to figure out how to support her friends, are completely relatable. Cause everyone knows someone, who's lost someone.  Season seven’s Get It Done  taught us how the SLAYER was first created. How a young woman was chained by these men who summoned a demon and then, well the best way I can describe it was they forced the demon essence inside her. Changing her and all future generations of women through the centuries and forcing them to fight demons. All while a council of men decide where she goes, what she learns and what she does. Sadly for women in America and all across the world, this hits very close to home. As we watch men around the world make decisions on what we do with our bodies and where we can go and when, the very HISTORY of the slayer, is still VERY MUCH relevant today. As we grow up, especially as our society is growing and becoming more inclusive, many shows I grew up with aren't all that rewatchable but Buffy the Vampire Slayer tells many stories that are still connecting with old and new fans alike. This is one of the shows where it allows you to critique the old ways, see the growth throughout but you can still enjoy it because the overall themes still matter, still resonate with audiences today. And in a world that's constantly changing, I’m grateful my “old reliable” is still “reliable”. At the very heart of it, BtVS is a show about a young woman, stepping into a dangerous world and not letting it break her. Everyday, women and femme folk around the globe are waking up to violence, poverty, antiquated gender roles and a loss of body anatomy. Buffy the Vampire Slayer gives us all a reminder, that we are strong, we are fierce and we are capable of extraordinary things when we band together. So when in doubt of your own strength, or when toxic masculinity starts to chaff, just think, WWBD- What Would Buffy Do?

His bite is worse than his bark! Netflix is back in the horror game with the announcement of the remake of Cujo. Cujo the novel by Stephen King was released in 1981 while the film was released on August 12, 1983 (come through Leo). Cujo tells the story of a rabid Saint Benard (not Beethoven) who terrorizes a mother, and her child trapped in a car. Stephen King is no stranger to his novels being adapted for the small and big screen. Let’s run down the list, shall we? You have heavy hitters like The Shining, It, Carrie, Stand by Me and Shawshank Redemption to name a few. Did we mention that new television adaptations of Carrie and a prequel to It (Welcome to Derry) are also dropping soon courtesy of Amazon Prime Video. So, who is behind this new Netflix collaboration? Barbarian producer Roy Lee will you guessed it, produce the series which as of date does not have a director, writer or cast. The original film earned twenty-one million dollars with a budget of six million. Lewis Teague was involved in the original film remake, which starred Dee Wallace, Daniel Hugh Kelly, and Danny Pintauro. It will be tough to follow this original cast, but I have faith. I am still waiting for a Doctor Sleep sequel, but we take what we can get in the world of Stephen King. While details are minimal, horror fans are ecstatic that their favorite murderous dog is returning to them. I do not know about anyone else, but that dog scared me growing up and I cannot wait to be scared again. Is there a Stephen King novel you want to see come to the big screen or perhaps the TV screen? Drop a comment, we would love to hear from you!

Rejoice! AppleTV+ has renewed Ted Lasso for a season 4 and not to fret, Jason Sudeikis will be returning as the title character. Unfortunately, no other cast confirmations have been announced. Ted Lasso follows an American football coach as he journeys across the pond to coach a UK soccer team. Ted is a nice guy and not what one would expect as coach. Coaches are usually these tough looking, standoffish men. Doesn’t help that Ted was hired by a divorced woman to get back at her husband who loves the sport. Eventually, Ted starts to gain friends. As you can imagine all types of hilarity and hijinks ensue. Sudeikis had this to say about the renewal news, “As we all continue to live in a world where so many factors have conditioned us to ‘look before we leap. In season four, the folks at AFC Richmond learn to LEAP BEFORE THEY LOOK, discovering that wherever they land, it’s exactly where they’re meant to be.” Some new additions to the crew are coming for season 4 including Emmy Award winner Jack Burditt (  30 Rock ) as an executive producer. Sudeikis himself will continue to have the dual position of lead and executive producer. Co-creators Brendan Hunt and Joe Kelly, and Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein return as well. Channing Dungey, chairman and CEO of Warner Bros also chimed in on their decision stating, “If ever there was a show the world needed more of right now, it would be ‘Ted Lasso. We — along with countless fans around the globe — have been rooting for another season, and it is an incredible feeling to be able to say, ‘Yes, it’s happening!’ We thank our partners at Apple and can’t wait for Jason and the entire ‘Ted Lasso’ dream team to step back onto the pitch and deliver another season of this phenomenal series.” Ted Lasso is no slouch in the awards department, having won 13 Emmy Awards so far so it comes at no surprise that AppleTV+ has made the easy decision to renew the series.   Are you looking forward to a new season of Ted Lasso or perhaps you plan on watching the series for the first time and binging before the new season starts? Either way make sure you keep it locked here at Je-Ree Reviews Media for all the latest updates about Ted Lasso and your favorite shows!

Seems like Jason Ritter is temporarily leaving the courtroom of his hit tv series Matlock and possibly putting on a villain's costume in DC Comics series Lanterns. Je-Ree Reviews Media has confirmed that Jason Ritter has been cast as Billy Macon the son of William Macon (played by Garret Dillahunt) in the highly anticipated series starring Mufasa (and ex- Kryptonian) himself Aaron Pierre (John Stewart) and Kyle Chandler (Hal Jordan). Many have suspected that William Macon is no other than supervillain William Hand aka Black Hand. Now fans could be wrong but if they are correct, it does not necessarily mean that sweet face Jason Ritter will be a bad boy in the series. Many supervillain kids go on to be the sidekick to superheroes (looking at you Winn on Supergirl) or heroes themselves. Who is Billy Macon though?  Well Billy Macon is “Capitalizing on his family’s reputation, he clings to his small-town ego and has everything to lose.”  So, the description does not give us much hope that he will be a good guy but you never know. I so want to see him go toe to toe against Aaron Pierre however. That is a showdown I did not know I needed until now. Taking into account that Matlock has already been renewed for a second season, I doubt that Jason would plans to stick around for long but don’t quote me on that, unless I am completely correct, then you heard it here first fans! Jason Ritter is no stranger to television with over 125 acting credits under his belt. He is a solid actor and in this nerd’s opinion a great choice to join the superhero genre. So comic nerds, with all these casting announcements made so far, how will DC Lanterns fair? Are you looking forward to another DC show or perhaps you are over it? Do you think this show will give Daredevil Born Again a run for its money? Either way make sure you keep it locked here at Je-Ree Reviews Media for all the latest updates about DC Comics Lantern and your favorite shows!
