Howdy. How you doin’? That’s right, it’s an all-new episode of The Flickcast. On time this week. Who thought it was possible? Well, we did, that’s who. And yes, we’re gonna try to keep on track. We’ll see how that goes.

On this week’s show Chris and Joe discuss all sorts of new and recurring topics, as you would expect. Some of these include the new Ant-Man movie, changes to The Flash for the second season, more about Mr. Robot (the show you should be watching) and its potential ties to Fight Club, Buffy vs. Angel, Chris Pratt’s greed, the potential reboot of Xena: Warrior Princess and a whole lot more, more, more.

Picks this week include Chris’ pick of the amazing Alamo Drafthouse Cinema and Joe’s pick of the delicious 2015 Stone Farking Wheaton Wootstout beer.

No doubt about it, when the Angel TV series finished its run, we felt a little sad. Fortunately, the series came back in the form of a comic from the folks at Dark Horse.

But that’s not all. We were also treated to other comics in the same universe. Case in point today is the upcoming Angel & Faith Season 10 #1.

Here’s what you need to know:

Angel’s work is never done. During his most recent world saving, a part of London was transformed and flooded with magic. Who better to watch over this magical community than Angel? At least, that’s what he thinks. Meanwhile, Faith starts a new chapter in her life—slaying zompires alongside Buffy?!

Sign us up for this one when it comes out. In the meantime, take a look at some preview pages after the break. Look for Angel & Faith Season 10 #1 to hit stores on April 2.

In September of 2005, both Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel had finished their runs while Smallville was about to kick off their fifth season. As for me, I had a very busy 5 year-old (hey kiddo; daddy loves you) and another on the way, and my wife and I were looking for a bigger house.

Needless to say, when I started seeing promos for Supernatural – The WB’s latest genre-infused drama – I decided to take a pass as time had become a precious commodity. Almost a decade later I set out to rectify that slight…

Basic premise of the show is simple: John Winchester (played by George Clooney-lite, Jeffrey Dean Morgan) witnesses his wife Mary (Samantha Smith) murdered by a demon. Years later, his sons Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) reunite to track down dear old dad and kill whatever goes bump in the night along the way.

This set up allows for the “freak of the week” template that Smallville had used for most of their seasons, and it works well within the realm of the spooky. Another aspect that clicked in that first season were the genuine scares, of which there are plenty of. The amount of times I jumped could almost be categorized as a work out.

Hey guys and gals, ready for some new episodes of Mad Men? You and the rest of the civilized world.

Even though it seems to take AMC a long time to get around to making new episodes (and they do), they’re usually worth the wait. And with season six just around the corner, the network has started the publicity machine.

Today’s example is a behind-the-scenes video showcasing some of the things we can expect from the new season. From what we can see, it looks like we can summarize this season in one word: upheaval.

We’ll see if we’re right when the show returns with a two-hour premiere on Sunday, Apr. 7 at 9/8C. Check out the video after the break. Oh, and a previous promo too, just as a little bonus.

Looking forward to the new season of Mad Men? Yeah, we are too.

Writer Steven S. DeKnight has got more than enough geek cred to bring any doubtful idea to a new level of excellence even when most other writers would choke under the pressure.

The man has worked with Joss Whedon in the Buffyverse and Angelverse, taken on young Superman in Smallville, and now he’s getting his blood and iron on with Spartacus.

Season 2 is starting up soon and Steven gives us some insight on how exactly they can pick up after the epic season 1 finale, and how difficult it was switching from Andy Whitfield to new star Liam McIntyre.

Another thing DeKnight touched on was a franchise he has yet to work with The Flash. He once proposed a series to WB in which we follow a young Flash in high school, and now Steven thinks this is a perfect time to get the project off the ground.

See what he had to say and more after the jump.
