2026 has officially kicked off, and the Pop Docs are looking ahead to the movies and television shows they are most excited to see in the new year! In this episode, the Pop Docs begin with a brief discussion of the cancellation of the Wheel of Time television series (with a side of Joseph's mourning concerning the Chiefs' disappointing 2025 campaign). Afterwards, the Pop Docs run down their top five most anticipated movies and television shows set to debut in 2026. There will be talk of fashion, superheroes, and dragons! Mild spoilers may abound.
