## Resource

Welcome back to the Monkey Nut Punch Podcast – Episode 380, where reboots keep surviving, legacy franchises evolve, and Netflix refuses to let Hawkins rest. NEWS Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 is officially renewed for Season 2 at Netflix — the spin-off train keeps rolling. Andy Serkis says Viggo Mortensen is reportedly “delighted” that Jamie Dornan has been chosen to play Aragorn in The Hunt for Gollum. Fans… may need convincing. The Scrubs reboot already lands a Season 2 renewal, with Zach Braff and Donald Faison celebrating through pure nostalgia overload. Ted Lasso Season 4 finally gets a trailer and August release date as Jason Sudeikis returns to Richmond — this time coaching women’s football. TRAILERS Resident Evil — another return to survival horror hits the screen with a fresh trailer. Ted Lasso Season 4 — optimism, biscuits, and emotional damage are officially back. REVIEWS Daredevil: Born Again — does Marvel’s street-level comeback still hold up? The Boys — satire, shock value, and whether the series still has something to say.
