MIxer dies, as Twitch faces a reckoning. The doc is not in. Pokemon takes a major blow. Cyberpunk shines, and Marvels Avengers lands flat.  Cobra Kai is shifting to Netflix, The Boys are back in September  and the Muppet's are back sooner then you think. Margot Robbie is headed to the Caribbean, Spongebob is staying on TV, while Collin Trevorow is headed under the sea. Plus, Dodgson, we've got Dodgson here. </itunes:subtitle>
