Help a forgetful fan out here. I recall from the live stream discussions that everything was on suspend till the official season 13 release.
But both the app episode descriptions and the gizmoplex.com still have posters/text saying the next live event is Atlantis. Is it still planned to happen, or are these just left over artifacts of a beta left advertising a now cancelled showing?
Yes, the final Backer preview is on the 29th. 1303: Beyond Atlantis. What they did say was that they were holding back on the special events until after the non-backer launch at the beginning of May. This didnāt include that 1303 backer preview.
Ah, OK, thanks! So sounds like we are on then for this upcoming Friday. Iāll let the family know so we can suffer together, ahem, I mean have a good time.
Based on the episode description it sounds like it might still be a Jonah episode, with Emily being featured as a b-plot.
Itās vague enough that it could go either way, but it sounds to me like sheāll be āin trainingā as part of this episodeās story. I kinda like that despite not being beholden to a networkās demands for a season-long story arc like certain previous seasons were, theyāre still weaving their own one in to accommodate the multiple hosts so that thereās an in-universe reason for the rotating hosts. It feels much more natural than some of the previous (network-mandated) throughlines.
Looking forward to seeing how they weave Joel in when his turn approaches!
Maybe the mads will have Jonah train her, or maybe itāll be like when Mike was on the SOL and the bots will have her go through an obstacle course of riff training.
Should be interesting how the Unsuspecting World will learn about the Gizmoplex next week, since itāll have the first three āpremieresā over that weekend. They should show the āuncutā versions for the interviews. Thatāll pull them in.
Also, maybe a discount will attract newbies as well, while maybe Netflix jokes will get more hard-core fans
