This week on PREVIOUSLY ON… Rosie is joined by producers Aaron and Abu to discuss the latest stumble in the Avengers: Doomsday marketing rollout: the underwhelming Dom Latveria Coffee pop-up at SXSW London and the Russo brothers' comments at an AGBO panel later that evening. Next, they discuss the shocking news that The Mandalorian and Grogu suffered a massive second-weekend drop off at the box office, while Obsession and Backrooms continue to dominate and break records. Then they turn to the gaming side of things and break down two of the biggest gameplay reveals from Sony's State of Play, Insomniac's Wolverine and God of War: Laufey, the surprise third installment in the Norse saga.

Alan Moore has just finished writing Book 3 of his Long London Quintet — and he sat down with Rosie to talk about it. In a wide-ranging conversation, the legendary writer of Watchmen, V for Vendetta, and From Hell takes us into "the other London": the hidden city of lost magicians, gangsters, and forgotten showmen that runs beneath the one everyone else sees. They get into why he declared himself a magician in 1993 and then had to live up to it, why prose is the most elegant art form ever invented, why he's done with comics (again), and what the riots of 1968 have to teach us right now. He closes with a message for these times: love and fight.

Jason and Rosie have crossed the invisible border into the first seven episodes of Widow's Bay, exploring its unique blend of horror, comedy, and the supernatural. Luckily, they weren't born on the island, so they've returned to the mainland to answer the most pressing questions. Is Patricia the best character on television? Is horror-comedy even a real genre? Is it brave to check the crawl space in the haunted hotel, or just stupid? Is a mystery box with an answer better than an infinite mystery?
