The Big Bad Wolf
We are deep into the NFL season with the playoffs on the horizon. There are many intriguing storylines, but how about one that happens off the field. There are many passionate fans that show up at home games, but sometimes you never really know who could be sitting next to in the stadium.
Chiefsaholic: A Wolf in Chiefs Clothing follows the story of Kansas City Chiefs super fan, Xavier Babudar. He became recognized locally for his support of the team, and for his distinctive wolf costume. Beneath the mask, he lived a secret life as a bank robber. When he was finally caught, he went on the run for four months. The documentary explores Babudar’s journey.
Chiefsaholic: A Wolf in Chiefs Clothing premieres Tuesday, December 24, on Prime Video.
Checking in at the Time Hotel
It wouldn’t be Christmas without a Doctor Who special and this year promises an exciting and fun adventure. Also, much like the Fifteenth Doctor’s first special, there is some clever name wordplay in the title.
In “Joy to the World,” Joy checks into a regular hotel in the present when she accidentally opens a portal to the Time Hotel. There, she discovers danger, dinosaurs and the Doctor. Joy soon must help and foil a deadly plan.
Stream “Joy to the World” beginning Wednesday, December 25, on Disney+.
Taking Down the System from the Inside
Most participants of Squid Game should count themselves lucky if they make it until the end. They walk away with their lives as well as a hefty cash prize. So why would anyone want to go through that ordeal again?
In the second season, Player 456 enrolls into the life-or-death game once again, but he has his eyes on a bigger prize than the money. Three years after winning, he wants to end it all for good. Can he survive a new batch of contestants and games?
The entire second season of Squid Game launches Thursday, December 26, on Netflix.
