DYK: Beetlejuice (TV Series)
Did you know that the Beetlejuice cartoon was one of the few shows in American TV history to be aired concurrently on two different broadcast networks? When it first aired on ABC, it was a huge success, and it later became one of the first cartoons to air on the Fox Channel’s Fox Kids lineup. This led to it being seen Monday through Friday on FOX while still remaining on ABC’s Saturday morning schedule.

Horror TV: Archive 81
Netflix released a horror show called Archive 81. The promotional trailer did not do justice to how good the series turned out to be. The story is told through videos on videotapes being restored by the protagonist, and the narrative does a great job of overlapping the past with the protagonist’s life and work in the present.
With each episode, the story expands and becomes partly more mysterious and partly more clear, which is a great mix and kept my attention. Even though the narrative got mystical and complex, I never felt like it was trying to trick or confuse me. Like the protagonist, I was eager to dive further into the evidence to uncover what the heck was going on.
Highly recommended!
