Avalanche - S1-E5

Trivia: When the Captain Scarlet series was sold to TV broadcasters, ITC (who had backed and then marketed the series) issued a "recommended broadcast order". This was not always the same order as the episodes had been made. Episodes 1 to 4 were made and broadcast "in sequence", but from episode 5 this no longer applied. Episode 11 ("Avalanche") was the 5th to be broadcast, swapping places with the episode "Point 783" which was the 5th to be made, but the 11th to be broadcast.

Agatha All Along picture

Trivia: This series was originally announced as "Agatha: House of Harkness" in 2021. The subtitle was then changed to "Coven of Chaos" in July 2022, before being changed again to "Darkhold Diaries" in September 2023. It was then officially confirmed to be titled "Agatha All Along" in May 2024. The previous titles were all probably announced as jokes to lead up to the actual title, given that "Agatha All Along" was the name of the song used to reveal Agatha being the main antagonist of WandaVision.

Chapter 11 - S2-E3

Trivia: The idea of "mental contamination" mentioned at the start of the episode is real, and the demonstration using cheerleaders is based on fact. 5 cheerleaders and 5 other students had seizures in a town in 2002, in 1952 165 cheerleaders fainted before half time at a football game. A famous incident was in Le Roy in 2011 - those who were featured in the press took longer to recover than those who didn't, suggesting a strong social/communication basis.

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance picture

Trivia: A sequel to the original film, titled "The Power of the Dark Crystal," was initially planned. However, the film spent many years in development hell with several different writers and directors being attached at different points. Eventually, French director Louis Letterier became attached to the project around 2012, and it was subsequently retooled into this prequel series for Netflix. "The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance" was finally released in the Summer of 2019 - almost 37 years after the original debuted in Winter, 1982.
