What have you been binge-watching or listening to lately? 

I have a few. 

Most of them I've already finished (in one sitting!). So I'm really looking forward to more of these shows, albums, and movies this year.

9 Things to Look Forward to in Entertainment This 2022 

1. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Season 4

Set in the late 1950s, this series follows the story of Miriam "Midge" Maisel. 

She is a doting and supportive wife, mother, stubborn but loving daughter, and a woman who's trying to break the mold of women during her time.

Why I love it:

I love Midge's quick wit, sense of humor, and resilience.

I love how she's naturally funny and doesn't let men, her family, the industry, or societal stereotyping scare her from pursuing her passion. 

I love how she stands up for herself, even if that means ruffling many feathers.

And Tony Shalhoub! 

From Mr. Monk to Midge's dad, his comedic timing is notable.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is another Amy Sherman-Palladino masterpiece that's impossible not to love.

The 4th season will be released on February 18, 2022, on Amazon Prime.

2. The Great Season 3

This dramedy satire is about Catherine the Great's journey from an outsider to the longest-ruling female monarch in Russia.

It changed my view about period dramas. 

Why I love it:

Another series that's about a woman's rise to power and strength of character. 

I love her eagerness to change the rotten system and push for basic rights like proper education despite everyone looking at her like she's a big joke.

She pushes on even when she feels like she doesn't belong and with almost everyone betraying her.

Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult are both amazing in their roles.

I love how they both slowly realized that they love each other.

3. Bridgerton Season 2

The Bridgerton series is based on a collection of eight novels written by Julia Quinn. It's about the eight siblings of the powerful Bridgerton family finding their way in life and finding love.

Why I love it:

4. Only Murders in the Building Season 2

5. House of the Dragon

6. The Batman

7. Shadow and Bone Season 2

A young adult fantasy adventure novel adaptation by Leigh Bardugo, Shadow and Bone is about Alina Starkov. 

She didn't know that she possessed a powerful ability to destroy what their people had feared and changed her otherwise ordinary life since time immemorial.

Why I love it:

I love a good escape from reality, and Shadow and Bone offer that.

From magical creatures to supernatural abilities, it can take you to places you've never imagined.

I love the bond between Alina and Mal. 

I'm excited to know if neophytes like them could defeat someone as adept as the Darkling.

It reminds me of the usual heroes who were forced to stand up against evil, like Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen, and Tris Prior.

Season 2 of Shadow and Bone will be released by the end of 2022 or early 2023.

8. Taylor Swift's next album 

Fearless and Red Taylor's versions were on repeat on my phone when she released them in 2021. 

As always, TayTay's secretive when it comes to releasing her music, but she might be dropping her versions of Reputation or 1989 anytime this 2022.

Reputation is my favorite album, so I'm really excited for her to remake it.

Will there be another bomb in these albums like Mr. Perfectly Fine and All Too Well 10 minutes version? 

I don't know, but anything is possible with Taylor Swift's genius.

9. Marvel movies and shows

I wish that Marvel would never stop producing movies and shows---even with critics saying they're destroying the movie industry.

We need a little bit of inspiration and hope, especially at this time, and I think superhero movies give us that.

Moon Knight, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Thor: Love and Thunder, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, She-Hulk, and The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special are on my list.

Life may be hard because of this v i r u s, but I'm glad that we live in the superhero movies era. 

I am eternally grateful to the entertainment industry. For keeping us sane and being a great company in these trying times. 

A silver lining indeed.

What do you look forward to in entertainment this 2022?
