Samurai Jack, Bill Nye, and Ms.Frizzle On Your Screen

Good evening everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery Blog.

This year is going to be explosive for sentimental people. Some of television’s best shows that kept us hanging on the edge of our seats or educated us in our childhoods are making a comeback.  It’s funny in knowing that the shows we grew up with will now also entertain a whole new generation. 

“Samurai Jack” will return on Adult Swim on March 11^rd, 2017 at 11 pm. The limited series picks up fifty years after the original final episode, wherein time no longer has any effect on Jack. The world still suffers from Aku’s wrath in the past, present, and even the future. Aku now has a cult with the sole mission of eliminating Samurai Jack who must return to the past.

Following the return of the iconic samurai is a certain science guy reinforcing global warming, science, biology, and a ton of other topics. “Bill Nye Saves the World” will be appearing on Netflix on April 21^st, 2017 and feature guest celebrities joining Bill Nye in a scientific conquest. Some guests will be Donald Faison, Zach Braff, Wil Wheaton, and many others.

Lastly, “The Magic School Bus:  Rides Again” is back to take us for an animated knowledgeable journey. Kate McKinnon will give voice to Ms. Frizzle later this year on Netflix.

As soon as these shows come on my inner child will go wild with elation and nostalgia. Here’s hoping the new generation will enjoy these shows as much as we did.

Eyes on the Perseids

Good evening everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery Blog.

Last night, the Perseids meteor shower rained down from the heavens and gave us the chance to wish on shooting stars. The Perseids put on a spectacular nocturnal display from August 11^th – 14^th, 2015. Tonight will be the final showing of this natural wonder, so be sure to look to the northeastern skies in complete and total darkness. Any time between 1 am – 5 am should give way to the raining meteors. Astronomers suggest that the best time to watch for the Perseids is before dawn, depending on the moon’s phase.

The Perseids meteor shower is named after the constellation Perseus. The constellation rests in the northeastern skies where the shower rains from; hence why the meteor shower was given the name Perseids. The Perseids meteor shower is greatly sought out after stargazers and astronomers because you can see sixty to one hundred meteors flying through the darkness within one hour. So whatever you do, do not miss this wondrous sight of celestial beauty.

So Long and Thanks for all the Experiments

Good evening everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery Blog.

This year we’ve had many depressing departures: Nelson Mandela, Harold Ramis, Shirley Temple, Robin Williams, and now Grant Imahara, Tory Belleci, and Kari Bryon.

Thankfully, the famous Mythbusters trio are not deceased, but they will be leaving the program. Known as the M7 Build Team, the trio took on experiments and helped Jamie and Adam with their own mythbusting antics.  Many fans have been heartbroken over this news that has taken the Internet (especially Twitter) by storm. Audiences have grown up watching these three have fun with experiments, but now it is time to bid a final farewell to them.

There are rumors circulating around their leave from the famous myth busting show. For a while it has been rumored by the Hyneman himself that not everyone got along on set. Everyone stepped on each other’s toes, but they were able to brush it off and make it work. On top of this little tidbit, the creators of Mythbusters are attempting to return the show to its original state of Jamie and Adam doing all the experiments. Grant, Tory, and Kari didn’t appear until the second season of Mythbusters, which doesn’t make them a part of the original crew.

Will you miss the M7 Build Team? Who was your favorite?
