Chloe is still getting used to living with Maze (Lesley-Ann Brandt), Trixi (Scarlett Esteves) and Maze are in the living room and Trixie is very pleased to be swinging on a swing, but it is no normal swing it is a sex swing, much to Chole’s horror.

Enver Gjokaj, Michael Rowe and Violett Beane talk Sci-Fi, Representation and What it Means to be an Actor

Starstruck fans of the science-fiction TV show genre were delighted at the announcements of three stars from the biggest shows in sci-fi; Enver Gjokaj (Dollhouse, Agent Carter, Dexter), Michael Rowe (Arrow, Tomorrowland: A World Beyond, Lies) and Violett Beane (The Flash, The Leftovers, Tower)

Gjokaj began the panel solo, grinning as he walked in. “You know the fight between Marvel and DC? Looks like Marvel won. Those guys won’t be joining us.”

He takes his seat, and the first question is in regards to why Agent Carter had such an intense and adoring fanbase. Gjokaj ponders, then mentions that it had the same issues Dollhouse had, first of all that it just didn’t have the right home.

enver-gjokaj

“With Agent Carter, the truth of the matter is, a female led sci-fi/fantasy show is hard for the networks to get people to come and watch. As much as fans like it, as much as there’s a group of people who are ready for that – like, beyond ready – network television is still a place where they gotta get a bunch of eyeballs. And I don’t blame them, that’s just how the money works.”

With Agent Carter it does seem to be the issue – whilst the petitions to bring Peggy Carter’s show back for a third season reached thousands upon thousands of signatures, the network numbers themselves did not do well. Whilst fans are still battling with Netflix, Hulu and other media outlets to bring her back, there hasn’t been a sure sign of anyone picking the show back up.

agent-carter-petition

“ABC really wanted that. They really wanted to push that, they were really behind it. They gave it a whole second season. It was just hard, it didn’t really find a large enough audience. But I think the people who really loved it, it’s because…unfortunately, it’s ahead of it’s time, or you could say that it’s totally overdue.”

“But Hayley? Sometimes you find an actor who just melds so perfectly – I mean she’s brilliant in everything – but with that character, it’s just such a perfect meld. The concept is great but then Hayley is so much of an integral part of the show.”

peggy-carter

Gjojak also mentioned that what he also found attractive about the show was taking the idea of a Noir, detective style show, with a detective who punches his way through situations with a secretary by his side – but with a woman playing the lead role. “It’s a great, great concept…” he trails off. “As I start to cry.” Despite the joke, it’s clear from the way Gjojak speaks of Agent Carter that he does think incredibly highly of the show. “It was just really smart, the writers are fantastic, great concept, great execution, great actors – and you get used to it as an actor, you know? Getting your heart broken, it’s not fair.”

Gjojak also goes on to talk about other roles – such as his adoration for his role in Dollhouse as Victor, one of the Dolls, and the fact that it was such a huge role that he’ll “never get again” because of the great concept. He also touches on working on Community as Luca – and explains how not only do they do re-writes between shows, but people behind the scenes shout new lines down the mics.

With the discussion heading back to Agent Carter, Gjojak is asked what he thinks about the impact of the show.

“As an actor, you’re kind of selfishly always looking for the next job.” He explains. “And by the time something comes out, I’m already onto the next job, so I’m not really thinking about the impact it has.”

“For me, the feedback that I’ve gotten from a lot of people has been from people who are disabled. And that it was really important for them to see – and this is just a small example of the impact that you can have being on a show. But playing a disabled character who is not commenting on it or not, ‘that’s his only defining characteristic’, just being a person who happens to have a disability, and then just moves on with his life.”

agent-sousa

“I was blown away by how much feedback I got from people, that that was really important for them and that they weren’t the bad guy or they weren’t just kind of like a dork in the corner that was shoved off and told to stay over there. That they let that person be the love interest, and let them be together. And it didn’t really register with me how important that would be, for people.”

“We have an outsized influence on peoples perceptions,” He continues. “The fact that they can see it and that young women can see a strong, self-confident, kick-ass woman who’s really good at her job and who’s killing it. And it has an impact on people who are grown adults, because we like it and because we need it. But it has a bigger impact on  young people because it’s formative. ”

“This show was something I felt so, so good about being a part of, that I wasn’t just putting distraction into the universe. I was part of something with a good message.”

Gjokaj is then asked what the next step is in terms of role – that if he was speaking to a casting director about his next step, what would he ask for?

“Everybody asks you that as an actor,” He shakes his head. “And the truth of the matter is, life – and definitely life as an actor – is not “Fill in the Blank”, it’s multiple choice. You take the best job that’s offered to you. And you actually spend most of your life as a young actor freaking out and really upset that you didn’t get some job, and then a job comes along that’s just so much better, and you’re so glad that you didn’t get that job.”

enver-gjokaj2

“Being an actor kind of beats you into a zen – it breaks you.”

It’s shortly after this that Rowe and Beane finally join the fray – after a brief sit-down with Gjokaj and getting settled, the questions begin again.

Starting with Violett Beane, the question asks her what it means to be part of The Flash and why people all around the world love the show so much.

the-flash

“It is an awesome show. That’s why people like it.” She beams with pride. “I mean, I think people of all ages and types can enjoy it, it’s super light-hearted and fun. But I love being on it because I get to be a superhero. I get to put on a suit, and look really cool, and work with amazing people, and work in an amazing city. I don’t know, its an incredible opportunity and I’m just so lucky.”

enver-michael-violett2

And how important is it for her to be a female hero in that universe that is so often male-dominated?

“Absolutely, I mean I don’t know how it’s take them so long. They had a female speedster but she was a villain. I don’t know how it’s taken them so long to do that, and you know the other female characters are slowly getting their powers and getting more of the spotlight in it. But yeah, you’re absolutely right. It feels amazing to be a part of that and to be a girl, a woman going into that. It’s great, and I think it’s important.”

And what was her reaction when she first saw the Jessie Quick costume?

jessequick

“I was so psyched! Oh my gosh I’d been waiting so long for it to happen and it finally did. I love the suit, it fits like a glove and it’s perfect and, yeah. It’s great.”

The two DC’er’s are then asked about Flashpoint, and the fact that the DC shows are all crossing over a lot strongly now – which show would they love to be in on?

Rowe grins. “I want to go back on [The] Flash. It’s a fun set to work on, a little bit more of a looser kind of feel? That’d be fun. But Legends of Tomorrow seems like that’s a good time too. I’d check that out.”

“Yeah, Legends [of Tomorrow] does seem cool with all the time travel” Beane agrees. “Like I feel like you have a different look every episode, and that would just be so fun, to work with costumes and hair and make up. But Arrow would be really fun? I love Echo Callum over there, he’s a really good friend of mine.”

“But yeah, any of the shows. I mean they’re all up there now, so it’d be fun.”

The three then discuss their favourite moments on set.

Rowe confesses that the first stunt scene he ever rehearsed with the stunt team that he ripped the ass on his jeans. “That was pretty hilarious.”

“Hit a cameraman in the neck with a fake baton when I was supposed to throw it at one of the other stunt guys. There were a lot of bloopers that stand out in my head. Maybe I just have a cruel sense of humour?”

Beane suggests Rowe hit the cameraman with the baton on purpose. “I didn’t, I promise!” laughs Rowe.

deadshot

Gjokaj’s favourite moment on set involves what he dubs as “Stroke Face Dominic Cooper” – naturally, a name caused by notorious prankster Hayley Atwell.

“Somebody snapped a picture, and it was upside down and from far away. So we zoomed in on his face and because of the lens warp, it was ridiculously messed up. And so we zoomed in and then we flipped it around – and it’s just the worst picture. We call it ‘Stroke Face Dominic Cooper.'”

“And he saw it and immediately was like, (insert English accent here) ‘No. Absolutely not. Not funny. Not funny.’ And he started grabbing everybody’s phones and they were like okay, we’ll delete it. And then all of the sudden you hear a bunch of phones go, ‘Ping!’ And Hayley had been deleting it, but then she emailed it to everyone.”

hayley-and-dominic

“And now, ‘Stroke Face Dom’ has been turned into a painting, it has been printed onto iPhone cases-”

“This has turned into his worst nightmare.” Nods Rowe, clearly showing that twisted sense of humour again at Cooper’s misfortune.

“It has become his worst nightmare,” Confirms Gjokaj, rubbing his hands together. “And I’m actually right now, I’ve commissioned something from somebody that is about to arrive at my house. I think it’s my pièce de résistance.”

“That’s amazing,” Beane laughs. “Well, nothing like that. We play a lot of games on set. Most recently, the game Exploding Kittens.” At the rooms confused stares (including Gjokaj and Rowe’s) she continues, “Okay, everyone at these conventions knows it, it’s awesome!”

exploding-kittens

Another interviewer asks what kind of advice they would give to a budding young actor who’s trying to break into the industry.

Beane recommends to be yourself. “And study your craft. I think it’s really important that you get into a class. It helps just learning and knowing what I’m doing.”

enver-michael-violett3

“With acting, it’s not always the same as being a musician where you can just pick up your guitar at any point in time, and you can play it, and learn and do more. You sort of need to be instructed and given scenes, and worked with by people. So I think it’s really important to study it, absolutely.”

“I always make sure people know what the reality of being an actor is like.” Gjokaj offers. “I always ask people ‘Have you ever interviewed for a job?’ And if they’re like yeah I ask, ‘well do you like it?’ and they’re like ‘no’ – that’s the job. That’s what being an actor is really like on a day-to-day basis. I interview for hundreds of jobs a year, and I’m rejected from most of them.”

enver-michael-violett5

Rowe advises that “if you love acting, do it. If you love it, do it and do it as much as you can. It’s like any job, just keep working and then something will happen at some point.”

Rowe is also asked about how the script issue coincides with his thoughts on the Suicide Squad interpretation of Deadshot.

suicide-squad

“As far as the other Deadshot? I was really rooting for that movie to do well and to be something special. And you know…it is what it is. I’ll leave it at that.”

He also explains (being prompted by the question of what draws them to a project) that being an actor is reading a lot of crappy scripts – a lot. He then surprisingly confirms he hasn’t auditioned for a single role in over six months, because of the amount of scripts he’s read that he isn’t engaging with.

However, he delights the room by telling them that he’s working on his own movie currently, that he wrote, and is currently filming on the East Coast of Canada. “It’s one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but it’s going well and I’m enjoying it a lot.”

enver-michael-violett

“If you’re offered a character, there’s two ways; it’s either you relate to it and it’s something that is familiar to you, or something so far away from that that you think ‘I wanna see if I can do that’, and you’re up for the challenge.”

Beane definitely agrees with that. “Definitely the story, and the characters, and their development is really important. I think it’s really important to, as a woman, to feel empowered by my role and not contribute to the mindset of what women have always been played as. I understand period pieces, and I understand certain races played certain roles in the past, and certain genders as well. And so if it’s a period piece I can understand it, but I also wanna be a part of the movement and the future, and so I look for roles that are empowering.”

Michael Rowe, Enver Gjojak and Violett Beane were special guests at MCM Comic Con in London.

Scream Queens SN02 EP04 – ‘Halloween Blues’

scream-queens-season-2-episode-4-halloween

From the left, Chanel Oberlin (Emma Roberts), Zayday Williams (Keke Palmer), Dr Cassidy Cascade (Taylor Lautner)

 

After the untimely death of Chad Radwell in last week’s episode, Chanel is left heart broken. No one else seems that bothered, except for Denise who admits to regularly engaging in role play with him. Fortunately useful news came out of his death, as Musch points out his murder breaks the Green Meanie’s pattern for killing only the cured patients, giving us another clue to the killers motives and identity.

Dean Munsch worried about the reputation of the hospital, heads down to the basement prison along with Denise Hemphill to speak to Hester. Hester suggests throwing a Halloween party to draw the killer out and also requests she attends too. Initially denying her request, Denise finally agrees to her help, letting her attend the party.

scream-queens-hester

Hester (Lea Michelle)

 

Chanel-O-ween is back y’all! The annual tradition continues, but this year Chanel terrorises her fans with horrid gifts such as puss and diseased whore hearts.

After Chanel is attacked by Hester dressed as Ivanka trump, once again Chanel and No.3 accuse No.5 of being the killer. With No.5 constantly being pushed by the other Chanel’s, will she snap? We have seen her beat up a couple guys after they were mean to wart-covered Tyler. Could she have already snapped? Maybe she’s involved with the Green Meanie?

At the Halloween party, the hospital is flooded with Hamilton costumed patients, used as a distraction by the Green Meanie. Chanel No.5 bumps into Hester, but just before she kills her, the Green Meanie comes along, and Hester allows the Green Meanie to stab her instead. Denise hears No.5’s cries and comes to her aid, but the Green Meanie is waiting for her. With Defibrillators, the Green Meanie shocks her to death. One more main character dead and possibly another, will Chanel No.5 survive a second time round? There seemed to be some killer bonding between the Green Meanie and Hester, and now two killers on the loose, those at the hospital are bound to drop like flies. Will they be able to catch them?

I praise the writers and producers, they really don’t seem to be worried who they kill off this season, annoyingly though, they have killed my two favourite characters. Will they be able to fill the Chad and Denise shaped hole in our hearts?

Some things we still want to know; Will Dr Holt find a cure for Chanel’s blueness? Why did Chad leave all his money to Dean Munsch? Who killed Chad? Will Holt be able to keep has killer hand under control? Noticeably absent was Nurse Hoffel yet again. Will Chanel No.3 and Cassidy’s relationship last? Who is the ‘green meanie’? Are the Green Meanie and Hester working together? Will Chanel No.5 survive?

Let’s have a moment of appreciation for Dr Holt’s costume “The script of Batman vs Superman” also known as “a bloody mess” LOL!

Have you worked out who the killer is? Comment and let us know your theories.

Arrow SN5 EP5 – Human Target

Welcome back to your weekly recap of our favourite Star City vigilante, the Green Arrow, as he tries to save his city . Today’s episode is Episode 5 of Season 5, titled Human Target.


– Flashback –

Oliver follows Anatoly into a room of Bratva with two scary men sitting on chairs. Anatoly joins them and they sit across from Oliver, about to do the world’s most intimidating job interview. He wins them over, but one of the three, Viktor, distrusts Oliver. Later on in the night they celebrate Oliver’s official acceptance to the Bratva, knocking back vodka and brooding about. Oliver follows two men outside only to be beaten up, but is saved by a stranger who was hired by Anatoly. Anatoly finds Oliver outside knowing already that Viktor wants Oliver dead. He reveals that they can’t kill Viktor because he’s too well-connected.

– Present –

Team Arrow searches the city for underlings of Tobias Church, hunting them down to try to find out where he’s located. No one seems to know, so Rene continues to be tortured by Church. “It’s not the pain that breaks people. It’s fear. Fear of the pain. Of what that pain brings. Of what happens next,” Church says, to a determined Rene who won’t give Church an ounce of information.

Back in the Arrow base Felicity still can’t find a location on Rene’s position, but despite this Oliver remains optimistic about finding Rene. He leaves the base to have a meeting as Mayor Queen. John finally gets to meet Artemis and Ragman, while Felicity quickly hides a call from her boyfriend which the team doesn’t know about.

Oliver meets up with Quentin and Thea at City Hall, letting them know Rene is still missing. Quentin and Oliver both agree that they need to recruit more cops, especially after Church’s attack on the ACU. Thea explains to Ollie that in order to win the rezoning vote to expand low-income housing they need four-fifths approval from the city council, but they’re currently lacking council member Kullens’ vote. Ollie meets up with Kullens and TV reporter Susan Williams, but the meeting doesn’t go as planned. Kullens tells the Queens that a rezoning project that happened 25 years ago allowed crony capitalists to push out needy families, which was headed by Queen Consolidated. Just like that, he refuses to vote to pass the bill.

Ragman and Artemis investigate an abandoned warehouse, to discover a puddle of blood on the floor. They notify Overwatch who tracks a van from the warehouse’s location to a forested area. She tells them that Oliver requested the location only be shared with him should Felicity uncover it. Meanwhile in said forested location, Rene is digging his own grave while Church and his cronies surround him. An arrow suddenly zips through the area hitting a crony, sending the rest scrambling. The Green Arrow appears dispersing arrows into the cronies while Rene knocks some out with a shovel. Rene confesses to Ollie that in his pain induced state, he let slip to Church that Oliver Queen is the Green Arrow.

Oliver refuses to go onto hiding despite the obvious target on his back. With the rezoning vote in the works, he trusts his security detail to be enough protection. John suggests that he get help from an old friend who could be of use in this situation. Felicity has a little afternoon snack with her boyfriend Billy. He lets her know that he’s joining the ACU and wants to know if him reporting to Felicity’s ex-finance would be weird. Felicity mumbles along that it will be fine because she totally let Oliver know they’re a couple.

At the docks Prometheus appears warning Church not to touch the Green Arrow, or his team. He fires an arrow at Church, who is protected by a masked man. Church informs the masked man that’s he’s not going to kill the Green Arrow, he’s going to kill the mayor.

Meanwhile Mayor Queen meets up with Reporter Williams, getting her to agree to hold off from firing at him for a month, in order to give him a chance to prove himself. She agrees and gives him her personal number. The Queens then meet with Kullens and inform him that they know Kullens was one of those crony capitalists who invested in pushing the low-income families out 25 years ago. The Queens leave the building with two security guards, but are stopped on the steps of city hall by the masked man hired by Church. He puts an axe in one guard, shoots the other, and shoots Ollie multiple times to Thea’s shock.

On the news, Quinton announces that Mayor Oliver Queen has been confirmed dead. Of course, that can’t possibly be true. Team Arrow turns around and talks to Oliver, who stands uninjured behind them. The elevator to the base opens and in strides another Oliver Queen, pulling off a mask (valar morghulis my friends). His name is Chance and he informs the team that his job is to be a human target, getting shot is just part of his work. In a private moment with Oliver, Chance accidentally reveals that Felicity has moved on. Later on in the night, Ollie meets Felicity on the balcony of her loft to talk about them both moving on, which goes well.

Diggle and Rene talk about his recent captivity, which helps Rene figure out information that helps Team Arrow. Brace. Felicity figures out Brace is an old airfield, so the team assembles and heads out. Church’s cronies have a showdown with Team Arrow which Church manages to escape. He doesn’t make it far, running into the Green Arrow who gives him a good beat down. Green Arrow takes Church into custody, while Church warns him that Prometheus is coming for him and he’s worse than anything imaginable.

The next day, Ollie publicly apologies for deceiving the city into thinking he was dead. On the bright side though Church and his associates have all been stopped and the low-income rezoning bill has been passed. Reporter Williams secretly meets up with a guy who knows it was Chance that took the bullets for Oliver, showing her a picture of Oliver Queen five years ago in Russia when he was supposedly stranded on an island. Chance was there too, he was the man Anatoly hired to protect Oliver that night.

Church is being transported to prison when suddenly an explosion stops the escort. Inside the van we hear gun fire and screams from outside, then silence. The guard opens the door only to be killed by Prometheus. Church trying to bargain for his life reveals to Prometheus that Oliver Queen is the Green Arrow. Prometheus just throws a knife into Church’s neck and walks away.

– Next week on Arrow –


What’re your thoughts on Church’s death? Did you enjoy his performance as a villain? How do you think Prometheus will tie into the Arrowverse? Comment below, or tweet me @SohoDoll. Until next time, “My name is Oliver Queen and I will save this city!”

Second Wonder Woman Trailer Released-It’s Even Better Than The First!

zzqbl2tsiyqhraqyzbnk.png

One of the hardest things to do in the film industry is to cut a supreme trailer, that leaves fans pleased and wanting more and not giving away the whole plot. The first trailer for Wonder Woman did that spectacularly, but somehow the second one is miles better than the first. Say what you will about DC, but they know how to cut a fantastic trailer (Eh, minus the second Batman V Superman trailer which left fans divided).

The cinematography is majestic, and it looks like Wonder Woman will be more fun than the other 2 instalments in the DC Universe, Man of Steel and Batman V Superman. Speaking of fun, even though Suicide Squad wasn’t a universally praised movie by critics (in fact in was quite the opposite), fans flocked to see it in theaters week after week. It even had more legs than Batman V Superman. A lot of Suicide Squad success can be attributed to its diversity, and also the fact that it never took itself too seriously, unlike BvS or Man of Steel (which is a masterpiece in my opinion)

I cannot wait for June 2 to see the best female superhero of all time taking a lead on the big screen. My only hope is that it fares better with critics and audiences than the previous attempts in the DC Extended Universe.

You can see the amazing trailer below.

The ‘Survivor: Millennials Vs Gen-X’ Review – “I Will Destroy You”

What a weird episode!

Besides the bountiful mic-drops from glorious Michaela (more on her in a bit), out of nowhere those that have been Purple-glossed for some time now found their voices … and boy did they speak up.

Firstly we got the new Vanua Tribe and Michelle – who besides her episode Two ousting of Mari (still salty yo) – has been relegated to background draping in favour of Chris, Zeke and David. Yes a majority of her confessionals was complaining about how gross the dudes were and how she was brought up with manners. But she also reminded us that she was at the bottom of the pecking order, obvious to us because of the lack of penis or should that be pecker (HaHa). But its surely a precursor to Michelle Jedi-Mind tricking herself back into the competitor … right?

survivor-millenials-vs-gen-x

Sticking with The Millennials and after last-weeks Figgy Boot (YAY) we got some annoying Ken and Jessica doubting Adam’s intentions because he is smart. And smart is bad in Survivor, which probably means Taylor is sticking around for a while.

Great

Seriously though, if Adam’s sacrifice results in him being screwed over by Ken and Jess, I’m goanna be pissed. Not as much as Michaela but more on that in a bit (we’ll get there). But what is Jess’ play here? Go with Taylor when his boy Jay is on the other Tribe? Or go with Chris, Bret and Sunday who voted for her numerous times?

But yeah, vote Adam out who has little-to-no alliances. Smart!

Any-who lets get to Michaela who was rather ceremoniously voted out of the game.

Cue the Hashtag bro.

survivor-millenials-vs-gen-x

So Jay thought it wise to vote out Michaela because not only is she smart (that old Chestnut), a challenge Beast but is also loyal to him, I see the problem here. Perhaps if Jay broke the Meta-Wall and put ‘Air Time Hog‘ I’d say he’d have a valid excuse.

Lets be honest, this was a bad move. I know I’m bias because we lost our Star Narrator of the year but for all the reasons listed above, Michaela was nothing but a Target coming into next weeks Merge. A factor that Michaela knew herself and for that very reason would’ve been loyal to Will, Hannah and (most importantly) Jay going forward.

survivor-millenials-vs-gen-x

This betrayal also particular stings because Jay is one of favourites. Perhaps not the favourite because major Adam-Love here but now with the Merge here, he is the biggest target going in. G’ah! Cue another of my favourites going home.

At least Michaela didn’t blow his spot with The Hidden Immunity Idol. Bullet well and truly dodged there mate.

Harley Quinn Smith joins the cast of Supergirl!

hqs1

Looks like an episode of Supergirl is getting a double hitter from the Smith family this season. Not only does she get the amazing Kevin Smith, director of the movies Mallrats, Clerks, Dogma and so many more, but also he has brought his beautiful daughter Harley Quinn Smith on set to be part of the cast.

 

While Kevin is having a blast helping to produce episode 9, that he so lovingly calls “Supergirl lives” after a story he wrote called “Superman lives”, he decided that a little more ‘oomph’ was needed and brought in his beautiful daughter Harley Quinn Smith. If you are a fan of the Smith then you know its not the first time he has brought his mini me to the stage. You can find her in several of his movies like when she played a baby version of him in Jay and Silent Bob strikes back, and will be appearing in the Mallrats TV series.

 

It has not come to light yet what role she will be playing in Supergirl but I’m sure it doesn’t matter really, just seeing her there is going to be awesome. ^_^

T2 Trainspotting Trailer Released

cwuqhasxaaay3me

20 years after the release of the iconic ’90s movie Trainspotting, Danny Boyle has reunited core cast Ewan McGregor, Jonny Lee Miller, Ewan Bremner, Kelly Macdonald and Robert Carlyle. T2, the long awaited sequel, will catch up with the lives of Renton, Sick Boy, Spud, Diane and Begbie two decades after the first film. Incredibly, all the characters have survived 20 years!

Writer/director Danny Boyle was quoted last year as saying that he’d always wanted to do a Trainspotting sequel, but wanted to leave it long enough for the characters to be interesting. The first film, based on the novel by Irvine Welsh, was an iconic piece of ’90s pop culture. Its orange hued poster hung on the walls of many a student, and the introduction of characters with a freeze frame and their name flashing up has become a convention of many movies since.

The trailer, which was released this morning, got over 8,000 hits on YouTube in its first hour of being uploaded, with fans keen to see how the boys are coping with life in their 40s.

Halloween is upon Elmore and everyone is excited for the great night of the year. In her own way Ms.Simian is also in the mood. Dressed up as Beetlejuice Gumball tells a story. Telling a story he tells them not to say a certain name and ends up saying it multiple times. Apparently summoning a vicious demon, but it turns out to just be Carrie the ghost. It’s good to see other character doing things and Carrie fits the bill as this is a Halloween episode.

Darwin is upset that Gumball is scamming the people and scaring them. Every year Gumball scams the town out of candy, and Darwin is sick of it. He wins over Darwin by telling him that Carrie will need a body to possess to eat candy. Darwin has some feelings for Carrie so he would love to be possessed by her.

The trio scams everyone and gets all the candy they could eat. In a ghostbusters style sequence they solve crime after crime, that of course they cause with Carrie’s help. They keep taking candy until they feel like they should stop. As they are about to dig in, they find the villainous ghost is actually real.and now they actually have to stop it.

All the ghost wants is candy so they feed him what they have. They have to run though as they have run out of candy. Darwin tries to speak to the creature and make him feel. Carrie promises to marry him so he will stop his assault. Darwin is heartbroken but Gumball throws one piece of candy and blows up the beast.

Darwin tries to ask Carrie out and almost gets a yes when Gumball pulls him away. A classic episode of Gumball with some good references all in one Halloween episode. This show really is a treat to watch.
