Hello, Jack! Season 2 gets underway Friday, October 7, on Apple TV+.
TV Fanatic scored an exclusive first look at what's ahead in the season premiere, featuring appearances from Joe Lo Truglio and Beth Dover.
The clip shows Jack as the gazebo following an event that leaves the neighborhood in a state of disrepair.
The gazebo is destroyed, and Truglio and Dover play a husband and wife who think back to when the location served as the space for their wedding.
Jack then speaks about the big day as the two new characters prepare to repair their home.
Jack is one of Clover Grove’s most thoughtful and caring residents, greeting everyone with kindness and humor. His ability to spread compassion, creativity, and imagination inspires everyone in town to do the same.
A new season of kindness creates more incredible change.
The series is co-created and executive produced by Jack McBrayer and Angela C. Santomero.

Apple TV Plus set Chris Miller and Phil Lord’s “The Afterparty” for a January 2022 debut and released a teaser for the upcoming murder mystery.
The show is set at a high school reunion, and each of the eight episodes retells the events of the night through a different character’s perspective — and therefore unique visual style.
“This is one of the most surprising, original and fun projects we’ve ever made,” said Lord and Miller. “Our goal was to tell a comedic whodunit story in a new and exciting way. By giving each episode its own unique style of storytelling, we were able to make what feels like eight distinctly different but interconnected films that highlight how everyone’s personal perspective and biases shape how they see the world.”
The show stars Tiffany Haddish, Sam Richardson, Zoë Chao, Ben Schwartz, Ike Barinholtz, Ilana Glazer, Jamie Demetriou and Dave Franco.

Christopher Nolan'S mind-bending thriller Inception is probably the best film of 2010 so far (an honour it will likely retain at year's end) and we can all remember the mystery that surrounded the movie in the build-up to its release.
With that in mind, Nolan is being characteristically coy about his next Batman project, due out in July 2012.
But a few fresh clues have been prised out of the filmmaker in a new interview.
He revealed to the La Times that what we have all been calling Batman 3 would be called The Dark Knight Rises, that it will Not be in 3D and that the villain "won't be the Riddler." By his own admission, Nolan isn't very forthcoming and there's very little to add to those few details at this point.
I can't say I'm overly fond of the title but at least the last tidbit effectively rules out...

At least one generation of super-hero fans grew up knowing the DC Comics heroes through their appearances on ABC’s Super Friends. Loosely based on the Justice League of America, Superman, Batman, Robin, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman teamed up in the Hall of Justice and fought all manner of menace. Accompanying them for no rational explanation were Wendy Harris and Marvin White, along with Wonderdog.
The first iteration debuted in fall 1973 and was an hour-long adventure with 16 episodes comprising thefirst season. The series survived in various incarnations well into the 1980s when it finally faded away, ringing down one era of animated heroics. The biggest problem confronting these early missions was the network demand that there be no violence. Threats yes; actually hitting the bad guy, no.
Additionally, the stories were designed to deliver messages such as ecological awareness so the youngsters watching at home could learn something.
