This week Smurf has a few thoughts on shows and movies that kept him entertained during the super cold day’s of the past couple weeks. One in particular that sent him down the binging hole was From as many questions were asked, theories formed, and characters killed off. Netflix might be losing its touch with Documentaries since the Jerry Springer on leaves a lot to be desired, Dates for the next season of Reacher and Clarkson’s Farm, and a Daredevil trail that’s beautiful.

Wolf Man is in theaters now and might be more than the fans are looking for, Watson has a mediocre premiered on CBS and leaves a very large but obvious plot hole as they try to separate from Holms. Smurfs Take this week focuses on the new Paramount+  Star Trek Movie Section 31 and it’s not what he expected. All of this and more for your Weekend Geek Update.
