Hey everyone! Taking a break from Oddities of Yore for a while. As you can imagine, I have had some family things come up and I have to focus on that now. I'm putting this out there to crowd-source some info. If you can share this with your friends or anyone who might know about this Henry Armitage guy that would be a real help. I'll try to post Bi-Weekly if I am able.

Attack on Titan has come back for its first installment of "The Final Season" "The Final Chapters" Part 1? Its confusing, and the marketing for this "Season" has been awful. Join Ben and Abe as we discuss the most recent hour-long special and its thematic elements that make Attack on Titan such an enthralling story. Twists have been made as Eren seems to be fully set on the rumbling, but why can the rest of the titan shifters use their powers? Is this part of Erens plan? And is Eren even in control of his own destiny? Or is he a slave to fate?

The Last of Us has ended and we have finally landed on the greatest question that the Show has to offer. Was Joel right in saving Ellie, the only person he loved in this apocalyptic world? There has been so much debate about this point. Some point toward the fireflies' status as terrorists and inept scientists as a reason for Joel to have been right. But is that why Joel made that decision? No. The truth is always more complicated than that. Join Alex and Ben as they dive into the thematic questions of The Last of Us.

The Last of Us has met us with its most Infamous character yet, and though he (David) was disarmingly kind in the beginning of the episode, he turned out to be quite the monster. The only thing is that he is actually not that great of a cult leader. So what makes this dysfunctional cult so frightening, and why will he have such a lasting effect on Ellie? This is The Return of the Show.

Ellie has been through a lot: She was ripped from her home, watched Tess die, lost Sam and Henry, and now Joel is about to be taken from her as well. That's when she remembers what started it all, her sweet childhood friend, and brief girlfriend Riely. We know from her story of the mall that it this can only end in tragedy. Yet there are some sweet moments to hold onto as well. Join Ben and Alex as we take a look at The Last of Us HBO's adaptation of Left Behind on this episode of the Return of the Show

Joel and Ellie finally make it to Jackson where they meet Tommy. Jackson proves itself to be one of the only real safe havens we have seen in this post-apocalyptic world. It would almost be the perfect place to end this journey. But tensions rise as Joel decides whether or not to leave Ellie in Tommy's care for the rest of his journey. Not because he wants to be rid of her, but because he doesn't want to watch his daughter die a second time. This is the Return of the Show.

Vox Machina season 2 is blowing us away. Scanlan is maturing, the Vex is alive, Vax is fast, Kelith is hot, and Grog is stabbing small things.

The fungus is among us. The Last of Us second Episode, Infected, has proven that it has the perfect solution for the spores problem: bread, and fungal brains. The cordyceps is stronger than it was in the game even without it being airborne. Now if you just step on the wrong flower, it is going to come for you! So how is this going to affect the story, and is this really the end of Tess? Ben and Alex are here to discuss on this episode of The Return of the Show!

The Last of Us has shown us that if there is passion behind the adaptation, it will work. Episode one is as frightening as it is horrifying, live-action clickers and a foreboding sense of dread bring the tension to a ten, while the loss of a child and a broken man brings the tragedy. Joel and Ellie's journey is just getting started and we are so excited to talk about it on this episode of The Return of the Show.

Game of Thrones is BACK BABBY! Well, at least we think it is. The real question is will House of the Dragon be enough to redeem Season 8 of Game of Thrones? Will Team Green VS Team Black be enough to entice audiences for the duration of show? Will George RR Martins direct involvement benefit the writing? We discuss these questions on this episode of The Return of the Show!
