HBO Max has given the show an eight-episode order.

The logline for the show states, “A superintelligent ape (Tatro) is convicted of murdering his father, the King of Gorilla City. In an eight-part ‘true’ crime docuseries, the Daily Planet’s Jimmy Olsen (Gisondo) reopens the case, investigating whether Gorilla Grodd was wrongly convicted in one of Metropolis’ most famous murder trials.”

Along with Gisondo and Tatro, the series will also star “Superman” actors Beck Bennett as Steve Lombard, Mikaela Hoover as Cat Grant, and Wendell Pierce as Perry White. Additional cast members include Mary Holland, Eduardo Franco, Arian Moayed, Andrew Leeds, and Tim Baltz.

Tony Yacenda and Dan Perrault will serve as writers, executive producers, and showrunners on the series, with Perrault also set as part of the show’s cast. Yacenda will direct all eight episodes. James Gunn and Peter Safran also executive produce. DC Studios and Warner Bros. Television will produce.

“We’re excited by the challenge of creating a series that feels less like an entry into the DCU and more like an artifact from it,” Yacenda and Perrault said. “A Daily Planet original documentary made for the people of Metropolis. We hope it’ll appeal to fans of the comics, comedy and true crime. And while we can’t speak for audiences here yet, we already know it’s a huge hit in Metropolis. They love this series.”

Yacenda and Perrault are no strangers to the world of mockumentary series. The duo famously created the critically-acclaimed Netflix show “American Vandal,” which spoofed the true crime genre. The show aired for two seasons at the streamer and won a Peabody Award for its first season in addition to being nominated for an Emmy for best writing for a comedy series. Tatro and Franco both starred in the show’s first season.

Yacenda and Perrault then went on to create the Paramount+ mockumentary series “Players,” which was set in the world of eSports. They previously spoofed the sports world on projects like a parody of ESPN’s “30 for 30” series about the events of “Rocky IV” and “Angels in the Outfield” for CollegeHumor.

“We are thrilled to be working with Tony and Dan, alongside James, Peter, the entire DC team and our colleagues at WBTV, to bring these iconic DCU characters to HBO Max in a new and unexpected way,” said Amy Gravitt, executive vice president of HBO Programming and ead of HBO & HBO Max comedy series. “We already know Skyler Gisondo is pitch-perfect as Jimmy Olsen and we can’t wait for fans to experience Jimmy Tatro’s captivating and hilarious portrayal of Grodd.”

Gunn and Safran added, “Between Skyler’s wonderful performance and the fantastic chemistry of the Daily Planet cast, we knew coming out of ‘Superman’ that this would be a fun world to explore. We’re excited to work with the brilliant Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda to take the audience down some of the darker and funnier streets and alleyways of the DCU as Jimmy spotlights the Metropolis criminal justice system for his docuseries.”

News of the series order comes less than a week after the premiere of “Lanterns,” another DC Studios show about Green Lanterns John Stewart and Hal Jordan.

Official paperwork related to the recall shows that the connection between the driveshaft and the rear-axle differential may create excessive wear on both components. Over time, the degradation of the parts could cause a total loss of power to the rear wheels, increasing the risk of a crash. In some instances, it can also mean that unless the parking brake is applied, the affected vehicles pose a rollaway risk.

As a remedy, BMW technicians will inspect the driveshaft and rear differential. When applicable, the technicians will either add adhesive to the connection or, when necessary, replace both the driveshaft and rear differential.

While the recall paperwork doesn’t identify any warnings that could help identify the issue, BMW is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the defect.

Dealers have already been notified of the recall and informed of the remedy procedure. Owner notification letters are scheduled to be sent on October 2, with instructions to bring affected vehicles in for the free service. Owners concerned that their car is involved can check the NHTSA recalls site using their car’s VIN.

By hounding his college professors at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, he was able to travel Wisconsin seeking out stories in the auto world before landing his dream job at Car and Driver.

On Friday, New Translations debuted one of the new songs they’ve been working on with producer Yves Rothman (Blondshell): “Modern Lovers” is a blast of hypnotic synth-pop that finds Pierce craving a time when life seemed uncertain. Surprisingly, he’s talking about the pandemic, when he and his friend circle were fantasizing about escaping to Thailand.

“It’s a song about the distance between who we were then and who we are now: the shortcomings, the vices, and the miles of hindsight,” Pierce says in a statement. “‘Modern Lovers’ is about longing — not to be who we were then, but for the feeling that anything was possible, whereas now so much of life feels so pathed out and certain.”

The track, which calls to mind the Killers and other kingpins of synth-rock, is also a preview of New Translations’ forthcoming album, the follow-up to their 2025 debut Vacation.

Along with bands like Lombardy, Flight Attendant, and Snooper, who just performed on Rolling Stone’s Rock Tour with Die Spitz, New Translations are leading a new class of indie-rock in Nashville, a scene that has been elevated thanks in part to the Rocknite live showcases.

“Rocknite has done a really good job in establishing community of the alt scene, whether that’s alt-rock, pop, anything left of country,” Pierce told Rolling Stone in June. “Maybe in some way it’s infiltrating, but I’m happy to be a part of any sense of putting a spotlight on the community that we have. It’s been around for a long time and this is just a great magnifier.” %!s()

Stock appears to be limited, but there are still some available at the time of writing. They are currently listed for $47.99, which is unfortunately still above market rates right now.

Compared to TCGplayer, where you can pick up any variety of these tins for around $35-$40 on average. While you may still have to take delivery into account, it's marginally still a better deal than Amazon.

Pokémon TCG: Prismatic Evolutions Mini Tin

Plus, you can choose which tin you want from TCGplayer, while Amazon is intent on just sending you out any of the Eeveelution-themed tins at random.

The cheapest of the tins available at TCGplayer is the Flareon tin, currently $34.88 based on current listings, and around $32.37 market rate. While the most expensive tin up for grabs is for Umbreon, at $41.97.

So you order a tin, it arrives, but what's included? In the Prismatic Evolutions Mini Tins, you’ll find: 2 Prismatic booster packs, an Eevee coin in 1 of 8 colors, and a Pokémon art card showcasing the art from whichever tin you get.

You're meant to be able to collect and combine all eight of the available tins, but Amazon makes that a little difficult to achieve for obvious reasons.

But is it worth it? Only you can be the judge of that. The "market price" is often dictated by what the majority of people are willing to pay, but only you can decide if this if truely worth your money.

No matter how unfortunate it is, and how hard it is to find Pokémon TCG at MSRP, market value is often the price you have to pay now, even from big retailers like Amazon, as I mentioned.
