This week on Hype Podcast, we talk about that new non-Merlin Merlin movie, Allegiant, Mockingjay – Part 2, Adele, and Hayley Atwell Agent Carter.

How We Hype:
We self-promote the shit out of our podcasts this week: We’re recording a Mockingjay – Part 2 Special this week (send your feedback by Friday!), and our friends at Hero Hype are borrowing Marama to discuss Jessica Jones. If you haven’t yet, make sure you check out Hype’s Hamilton Special!

Pam’s been listening to music, because of course she has. This episode contains her mini reviews of Justin Bieber and One Direction’s new albums.

News:
– We continue our music discussion by reviewing Adele’s new single “When We Were Young”
– MERLIN! But… not Merlin. Disney is developing a movie series based on T.A. Barron’s Merlin Saga
– There’s a new Allegiant trailer out, and we debate whether movie adaptations should stay faithful to the book, or create a new story
– Suicide Squad gets PG-13 rating. Is anyone surprised?
– Chris Hemsworth and a bunch of kickass ladies? Nope, it’s not Ghostbusters! The Snow White sequel Winter’s War actually looks pretty great
– Agent Carter is coming back, and the first promo ignites all our Peggy feels!
– Hayley Atwell has quit social media, so now we’re sad again
– Speaking of Hayley Atwell, Chris Evans’ Snowpiercer movie is getting the TV show treatment (and it may or may not secretly be a prequel to Divergent)
– Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are hosting SNL!
– The Word of the Year is an emoji, Nineteen Eighty-Four is real, the world is over.

TV Show of the Week:
Pam and Marama share their excitement about Quantico and Master of None. Unfortunately, we’re not quite as hyped about Supergirl.

As always, we wrap up Hype Podcast with Hot on Hypable and Listener Feedback, during which Marama also shares her book recommendations and Selina talks Arrow and The Flash!
