Porky Pig and Daffy Duck have to stop the end of the world. The movie stars Eric Bauza, Candi Milo, Fred Tatasciore, and Peter MacNicol.
I thought the Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movies was fun. It was nice to watch a cartoon on the big screen. It has been years since a 2D animated movie has been in theaters. It felt like an extended episode of Looney Tunes. I don’t mean that as a bad thing. It had a fun and simple story. It is a nice pace. It clocks in around an hour and a half. It felt like classic Looney Tunes. It is also the first fully animated Looney Tunes movie. All prior theatrical releases were hybrids. Space Jam and Back In Action were animated and live.
There were some cool twists that fit with the brand of Looney Tunes. There is even a bit of a mid-credit scene that perfectly fits the tone of the movie.
The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie is a fun classic Looney Tunes movie and cartoon. It will be interesting to see where the franchise goes next.
Harrison Wells (Tom Cavanagh) in season 1 of The Flash Credit: Warner Brothers
In honor of The Flash ending on Wednesday May 24th, here is a look at Harrison Wells’ journey. MASSIVE SPOILERS.
Tom Cavanagh has gotten the privilege of playing multiple Wells throughout the series. Tom Cavanagh was a series regular from the beginning. Harrison Wells worked at S.T.A.R. Labs and mentored Cisco Ramone (Carlos Valdes), Caitlyn Snow (Danielle Panabaker), and Ronnie Raymond (Robbie Amell). The Particle Accelerator led to the birth of metahumans, killed Ronnie who was Caitlyn’s boyfriend, and led to Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) getting struck by lightening which put him into a coma. When Barry woke up, he had speedster powers and went on to become The Flash. He was mentored by Harrison Wells. Later in season 1 it was revealed that Harrison Wells was Reverse Flash. After that it was revealed that Harrison Wells was really Eobard Thawne (Matt Letscher). Eobard killed the real Wells and had taken Wells’ form. By the end of season 1 Eddie Thawne (Rick Cosnett) killed himself in order to erase Thawne from the timeline.

In Season 2, Harrison Wells from Earth-2 arrived. Team Flash was hesitant to trust him because of what happened with the other Wells. Overtime Harry became a member of Team Flash. He was able to make amends with his daughter Jesse Wells (Violet Beane) who went to become the hero Jesse Quick who was a speedster. He also became close with Cisco.

At the beginning of season 3, Harry went home to Earth-2 and Harrison H.R. Wells from Earth-19 joined Team Flash. HR mentored Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) after he became a speedster. HR helped Team Flash fight Savitar. HR made the ultimate sacrifice by switching places with Iris West (Candice Patton) when Savitar went to kill her. Instead of Iris, it was revealed to be HR who was disguised as Iris. The real Iris was disguised as HR. HR died and Harry from Earth-2 returned.
In Season 4, Harry helped Team Flash fight the Thinker (Neil Sandlands). Harry also reached out to the other Wells throughout the multiverse and formed the Council of Wells. In an attempt to stop The Thinker, Harry built a contraption to make him stronger. It wound up taking down his high IQ. By the end Harry chose to go home to Earth-2.
Sherloque Wells (Tom Cavanagh) in season 5 of The Flash Credit: Warner Brothers
In season 5 Sherloque Wells arrived on the scene. He helped Team Flash fight Cicada (Chris Klein). Sherloque took an interest in Nora West Allen (Jessica Parker Kennedy) who is the future daughter of Barry and Iris. She is from 2049. Eventually Sherloque was able to solve the mystery that Nora was being mentored by Eobard Thawne in 2049 who was sentenced to death. He was in prison and had ulterior motives to escape his fate. Sherloque went home after his job was done.
Nash Wells (Tom Cavanagh) in season 6 of The Flash Credit: Warner Brothers
In Season 6 Harrison Nash Wells arrived. Nash was a geologist and myth buster. He was seeking something very important on their Earth. He was a key part of Crisis on Infinite Earths where he became Pariah after being tricked by the Ant-Monitor (LaMonica Garrett). After the Crisis was over and the Multiverse was destroyed, Nash was the only Wells left with all prior absorbed into him. This also led to Nash being able to see the others Wells. Nash took an interest in Allegra Garcia (Kayla Compton) who had resembled someone from his past. Eventually Allegra and Nash were able to bond. At the beginning of Season 7 Nash sacrificed himself in order to protect Team Flash. His sacrifice led to the original Harrison Wells to be brought back from the dead. Harrison helped Team Flash and went on to live a new life and adjust to being alive again.
After the Original Wells left, that was the end of the Wells’. Tom Cavanagh would go on to reprise his role as Eobard Thawne, but he was no longer a series regular. It will be interesting to see if any of the Wells will make an appearance in the series finale. It definitely has been a wild ride for Tom Cavanagh and the Wells of the multiverse.
It’s almost March and at this point only CBS has given early renewals to a handful of shows. The CW has only renewed one show, All American. ABC just announced that The Goldbergs current season will be its final season. It is currently in season 10. What shows have a shot of getting renewed? This will be a multi part post. The focus today will be FOX.

Fox has announced some early renewals. The animated shows including Grimsburg and Krapolis which have yet to premiere have all been renewed. Monarch, which premiered in the fall, has already been canceled after one season.
Bob’s Burger

Renewed up to season 23. This will last until Seth McFarlane doesn’t want to do it anymore.
Grimsburg

Already renewed for season 2. Does not have a premiere date yet for its first season. Not sure if this will last beyond a second season.
Krapopolis

Already renewed for season 2 and season 3. Does not have a premiere date yet for its first season. Not sure if this will last beyond a third season.
The Simpsons

Renewed for season 35 & season 36. This will end when the showrunners and cast get tired of doing it. At this point they may just want to make it to an even 40 or even 50 and call it a day.
The Great North

Renewed for season 4. This will probably last for a few more years. I am not sure if it will last as long as some The Simpsons, Family Guy, or Bob’s Burgers.
The Cleaning Lady

Renewed for season 3. If it performs the same as is did this past season it will probably last a few more seasons.
Hell’s Kitchen
Credit FOX
Renewed for season 22. This will continue until Gordon Ramsay decides to end it.
9-1-1
Credit FOX
Currently in season 6. It will probably get renewed for season 7. This still does well. I see it lasting a few more seasons.
9-1-1: Lone Star
Credit FOX
Currently in season 4. It will probably get renewed for season 5. FOX is going to want to hold on to the 9-1-1 franchise for as long as possible. As long as this remains consistent it will be on for many more years.
Call Me Kat
Credit FOX
Currently in season 3. This can go either way. It could get renewed for season 4 or it could end this season.
Fantasy Island
Credit FOX
Currently in season 2. It will probably get cancelled. The only way I could see it getting renewed is if FOX wants to have it as a summer series.
The Resident
Credit FOX
Wrapped up season 6. It has a decent shot at getting renewed. Given it has lasted this long if anything it could get a seventh and final season. It still performs well so this could go on for a few more years.
The Masked Singer
Credit FOX
Currently in season 9. This will probably get renewed for season 10. This will last for a few more years. FOX is not going to get rid of this anytime soon.
Next Level Chef
Credit FOX
Currently in season 2. It will probably get renewed for a third season.
Welcome to Flatch
Credit FOX
Wrapped up season 2. It could go either way. It will either get renewed for season 3 or it will get axed. It will depend on what FOX wants to do with their live sitcoms.
Accused
Credit FOX
Currently in its first season. It will probably get cancelled. It is an anthology series but does not have buzz the way others do like American Horror Story.
Alert: Missing Persons Unit
Credit FOX
Just wrapped its first season. It will probably get cancelled. I see FOX wanting to give the slot to a new show.
Animal Control
Credit FOX
Currently in its first season. If FOX keeps Welcome to Flatch and Call Me Kat, this will probably get cancelled. If FOX gets rid of one or both of those shows this could have a shot at getting renewed.
FOX has a decent number of shows renewed already. There are also a fair number of shows waiting for renewals. The biggest questions fall on The Resident and the sitcoms. It’s a pretty safe bet that 9-1-1 and 9-1-1 Lonestar will be back. The Resident has achieved 100 episodes. It still performs well when compared to the other shows on the network. Unlike other hospital shows, specifically Grey’s Anatomy and ER, The Resident has maintained most of its cast only losing two original cast members. Morris Chestnut who joined the show in season 3 left at the end of season 4. If Grey’s Anatomy which is currently in season 19 and ER which lasted 15 seasons continued with major cast changes, The Resident should be able to hold on for a little while longer with its cast intact. Grey’s Anatomy is down to two original stars with Ellen Popmpeo, the title character and star of the show having just recently departed the series. ER lost all of its original cast members with Noah Wyle the longest one lasting 11 seasons. The Resident actually could go on for a few more years as long as the stars still want to do it. The sitcoms are a different question. I don’t know if FOX wants to keep its sitcoms or get rid of them altogether. If they want to keep them, then Call Me Kat and Welcome to Flatch have a good shot at renewals. If it comes down to FOX only keeping one and using that to launch another sitcom, I think Call Me Kat would have the edge given it is currently in season 3. It has been on a little longer than Welcome to Flatch which wrapped up season 2. In more recent years FOX has backed off sitcoms relying more on dramas and reality shows and its Sunday Animation Domination. All will be revealed in May.
