The 42cast Episode 144: Hitting the Mark

February 28, 2022 by Dastari Leave a Comment

Daredevil Season ThreeEverything old is new again! After some surprising appearances in some recent MCU releases, Daredevil is relevant again, so we thought it was a great idea to finally make public our review of season 3 of that series. We discuss everything from the aftermath of The Defenders to how we feel that this is probably the end to his stand alone series. We discuss our thoughts for a possible season 4 as well as our feelings for the characters and the trajectories they’ve taken to get to this point. We also talk about our new characters such as Bullseye, various takes on mental health, and Anji asks if the writers just have an unreasoning hatred of the FBI.

This week Ryan, Stephanie, and Anji join the cast.

The 42cast Episode 139: Old Man Picard

January 18, 2022 by Dastari 2 Comments

Star Trek Picard Season OneFor many Star Trek: Discovery was a welcome return to the Trek universe for fans who’d wanted a Star Trek TV series for years. However, the series remained divisive with many long-term fans refusing to watch the series. Enter Star Trek: Picard a series meant to catapult the Star Trek franchise forward but providing ample connections for established fans. In this episode we do a deep dive on the series. We talk about the plot, the reunification of the Star Trek timeline, the characters and the cast. We also make sure to spend plenty of time on the cameos, the cathartic release from Star Trek: Nemesis, and our predictions for season two.

This week’s five-minute controversy asks if it’s a good idea for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds to be episodic rather than have story arcs.

This week Stephanie is cohost and James and Juliette join the cast.

The 42cast Episode 138: Cutting Edge

January 10, 2022 by Dastari Leave a Comment

Superman and Lois Season OneLast year a new series took the Arrowverse by storm. That series was Superman and Lois. Although the character of Superman has been adapted numerous times in numerous media, this series broke the mold by focusing on Superman and Lois as parents of teenage children. Along the way superhuman threats emerge, but the heart of the show is about family. In this episode we talk about that family dynamic, how we felt about the portrayals, the surprise reveal of who “The Stranger” is, and the overall plot of the series. We also discuss that Diggle cameo and our thoughts for season two.

This week’s five-minute controversy has us discuss the Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer.

This week Beth, Ryan, Eric, and Thomas join the cast.

Show Notes:
Proof people were linking The Stranger to Lex Luthor prior to the debut of the series.

The 42cast Episode 135: Childhood’s End

December 9, 2021 by Dastari Leave a Comment

The Mandalorian Season 2Before Disney announced approximately 312 new Star Wars series that would debut at some point on Disney+, they gave us The Mandalorian. The Mandalorian ticked all of our boxes in season 1, providing compelling drama in fun innovative ways that only Star Wars can. In this season they built on the formula bringing back fan-favorites from the first season, characters from across the Star Wars universe, and providing new locations and situations. In this episode we examine season 2 and assess if the series heading in the right direction. We also talk about the potential with the Book of Bobba Fett spinoff as well as what we think will happen in The Mandalorian season 3.
