Read MoreHis Dark Materials have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.

Read MoreAndor’s season finale is here and what a ride it’s been. This show surprised me every week with how complex and intertwined the story became.

The Munsters, which followed a family of classic monsters, and The Addams Family, a creepily macabre but equally hilarious family, both ran for two seasons. They began within a week of each other, so it only seems right that both reboots
