Final Season of Schitt’s Creek Coming to Netflix in October
It’s a week of all the best news for Schitt’s Creek and its fans. Less than 24 hours after the modern comedy classic completed a history-making sweep of the Emmys, we at last know when the show’s sixth and final season will be hitting Netflix: October 7th. Schitt’s Creek originally ran on Canada’s CBC Television beginning in 2015, but the only way to watch it in the US was on the Pop TV pay channel or buying seasons on Amazon. It wasn’t until the Netflix began hosting past seasons in 2017 that the series entered the US cultural consciousness, leading to a huge spike in popularity. That popularity culminated in a string of historic wins at Sunday night’s 2020 Emmy Awards. Schitt’s Creek took home every single award in the comedy series categories — the first time the feat has ever been acco...
What’s Coming to Hulu in October 2020
Hulu is bringing the tricks and treats for October 2020 — or rather “Huluween”. When it comes to originals, the streaming service is in full supply with the debut season of Monsterland, Clive Barker’s Books of Blood anthology film, and the highly anticipated premiere of new horror comedy Bad Hair. Also exciting is the glutton’s worth of essential horror rentals, including Interview with the Vampire, Deep Blue Sea, Hostel I and II, House of 1000 Corpses, Martyrs, Fallen, and the entire Blade trilogy.

Editors’ Picks Check out the full list below, pick u...
The Sword Guitarist Says Metallica’s Kirk Hammett Had the Best Weed Ever
The Sword’s Kyle Shutt (photo by Jack Thompson) / Metallica’s Kirk Hammett (photo by Raymond Ahner) Back in 2008, Metallica and The Sword teamed up for the “World Magnetic Tour”. Somewhere along the way, Metallica’s Kirk Hammett offered The Sword’s Kyle Shutt some weed, and according to the guitarist, it’s the best he’s ever had. With Shutt playing guitar in one of the most renowned stoner metal bands, Metal Injection put the question to Shutt: Of the artists who’ve smoked him up, who had the best weed? Shutt answered immediately: “Kirk Hammett. He had this shit called ‘Romulan’ one time, which was, probably, the best weed I ever smoked.” A Leafly search of the Romulan strain, named after the wise and mysterious Star Trek race, reveals that its a “powerful indica revered for it...
What’s Coming to Disney+ in October 2020
Disney+ is doing their own thing for October 2020. The Mouse House is mostly opting out of spooky season for some truly out-of-this-world events. There’s the series premiere of The Right Stuff and the highly anticipated sophomore season of their Emmy-winning Star Wars spinoff The Mandalorian. Beyond that, Disney+ is adding a few big titles to their catalogue, specifically Maleficent, X2: X-Men United, Mr. Holland’s Opus, and — watch out — Cheaper by the Dozen 2. They’re also getting the 31st season of The Simpsons. How about that. For those bummed out there are very little Halloween treats — including their dusty diamond-in-the-rough special Halloween Treats — it should be noted that they already have plenty of ghoulish content on the service. Yes, that means Halloweentown. Editors’ ...
HHW Gaming: Sony Apologizes For PS5 Pre-Order Madness, Promises More Consoles Will Be Available
Source: Sony / PlayStation Many gamers were BIG MAD (including this writer) because they couldn’t secure a PS5. Sony is taking full responsibility and apologizing. Following Sony’s epic reveal (Sept.16) of the PS5’s price, release date, and games we can look forward to playing on the next-generation console, the company announced that pre-order’s would begin the following day (Sept.17). Too bad retailers like Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and GameStop didn’t get that message deciding to drop pre-order links, surprising gamers everywhere. Amazon decided to wait a bit later before it opened up its site to pre-orders and technically did wait till the 17th dropping its link at the stroke of midnight. The surprise drop, which Sony did promise would not be the case, sparked mass hysteria online as ...

Respect The Pioneers: GORE-TEX Inventor Bob Gore Has Passed Away
Source: George Frey/RETIRED / Getty If you ever wore clothing specifically made for the outdoors then you need to take a moment of silence. The father to one of the greatest fashion inventions is no longer with us. As spotted on High Snobiety Bob Gore, the inventor of GORE-TEX, has passed away on Thursday, September 17. In 1969 Bob Gore stretched heated rods of polytetrafluoroethylene and created expanded polytetrafluoroethylene. His discovery of the right conditions for stretching PTFE was a happy accident, born partly out of frustration. Instead of slowly stretching the heated material, he applied a sudden, accelerating yank. “I decided to give one of these rods a huge stretch, fast, a jerk and it stretched 1000%” he said. After some more testing he introduced it to the public under...
Bobby Shmurda Denied Parole, May Serve Max Sentence
Source: Bennett Raglin/BET / Getty Bobby Shmurda got some bad news. The Brooklyn rapper has been denied parole and won’t see release until 2021. Shmurda has already been in jail for almost six years after his late December 2014 arrest. After being repeatedly denied bail pleaded guilty to conspiracy and criminal possession of a weapon charges in September 2016. A month later, the “Hot N*gga” rapper was sentenced to 7 years in jail. But with credit for time served, and good behavior, Shmurda and his team hoped he’d be out in 3 and a half years. However, TMZ reports that Shmurda was interviewed by the parole board last week and his request for release was denied. At the moment no reason has been given for the denial. The speculation is that Shmurda not being a model inmate at least factored i...

Tyler Childers Challenges His ‘White Rural Listeners’ to Empathize With Black Americans in Powerful Video
Tyler Childers directed a YouTube video toward his “white rural listeners” about the Long Violent History, his surprise album that he dropped Friday (Sept. 18), behind the age-old target on the backs of Black Americans. “Long Violent History is a collection of instrumental pieces intended to create a sonic soundscape for the listener to set the tone to reflect on the last track, which is my own observational piece on the times we are in,” Childers clarified about the project’s main track in the six-minute video posted Monday (Sept. 21). While lamenting on the current times brought on by the COVID-19 crisis and police brutality, he justifies the angst and anger Americans have been feeling.
