Q: Has Jeff Goldblum voiced any cartoon characters? His voice is so eccentric.

Author: 
Adam Thomlison / TV Media

Quite a few, actually.

Not surprisingly, he seems to mostly prefer the sorts of cartoons that are aimed at grown-ups. See, for example, guest spots on the puppet-based prank show "Crank Yankers" and short-lived series "Allen Gregory" and "Tom Goes to the Mayor."

He's actually been a little more kid-friendly in his big-screen voice work, with roles in the 1998 DreamWorks hit "The Prince of Egypt" and the less-successful 2012 comedy "Adventures in Zambezia."

Q: Are they going to make more episodes of "Lucifer"?

Author: 
Adam Thomlison / TV Media

Yes they are, although they (being Netflix) were once just as uncertain as you are.

The fan-favorite, religion-themed procedural drama "Lucifer" ran for three seasons on Fox before its first cancellation -- the first of many, in fact.

Netflix rescued it, producing two more seasons before cancelling it again, only to turn around a year ago and say it would do one more.

It released Season 5 in two chunks, with the second chunk coming out at the end of May this year.

Housebroken, on Fox

Don't miss another new episode of this animated sitcom following a group of neighborhood animals as they sort their issues out in therapy. Created with adults in mind, the series features the voices of Lisa Kudrow, Nat Faxon, Tony Hale and Will Forte.

Late Laughs for the week of June 27 - July 3, 2021

A Little Late with Lilly Singh

When it comes to body shaming, I have to talk about heroes like Lizzo, someone who's been so vocal and outspoken about her workout routine and about her eating habits but still gets comments online that are toxic. ... Megan Thee Stallion also had some insightful things to say about body image when she said, "Body-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody ..."

 

New Releases for the week of June 27 - July 3

Percy Vs Goliath

Percy Schmeiser (Walken) is a humble canola farmer who doesn't care for fuss. Having learned how to tend his land from his father and grandfather, he prides himself in sticking to tradition rather than giving in to the corporate giants' cash incentives and their genetically modified seeds. More than anything, Percy aims for a somewhat minimalist, peaceful life with his wife, Louise (Maxwell). This all changes, however, when agricultural behemoth Monsanto accuses him of stealing its patented seeds. Completely thrown by the news, Percy looks back and realizes the cross-contamination between his and his neighbor’s crops did indeed yield him, completely unknowingly, crops of Monsanto’s product. The reason does not matter to Monsanto, though, who moves forward to sue him for costs that would ruin his and Louise’s happy life. In a move that would take him to the Supreme Court, Percy, with the help of lawyer Jackson (Braff) and agricultural activist Rebecca (Ricci), decides to fight Monsanto’s lawsuit and in the process galvanize independent farmers the world over to fight back. Based on true events.

When he fails to return by nightfall, and more disturbing things begin to pop up all over their woods, Anne and Renée realize they’re up against something far more sinister than one hungry beast.
