'The Sandman' season 2 is awesome — and now I want a Netflix spinoff with these two characters

"The Sandman" season 2 has officially ended ... mostly. Yes, there's still a pesky bonus episode, "Death: The High Cost of Living," that hits Netflix next week on July 31. But the story of Dream of the Endless, and all the other characters we've met along the show's 22 episodes to date, has concluded, even if we're going to see some of them one last time. But after watching the second half of this season, I'm not convinced this should be the end. Or at least, it shouldn't be the end for two characters in particular: Johanna Constantine (Jenna Coleman) and The Corinthian (Boyd Holbrook). For those of you who haven't watched the five-episode "The Sandman" season 2, volume 2, don't worry. I don't plan to spoil anything of note here. While some of you may be surprised to see The Corinthian return from season 1, the news of Holbrook's return hasn't been a secret for a while now. But what was a secret, until I started watching this latest batch of episodes, was that Coleman and Holbrook are electric on screen together. Now that I know this, I'm here to convince you, and any Netflix executive reading this, that we need more from Constantine and The Corinthian — it can't end with "The Sandman" season 2. Before filming got underway on season 2, there were signs pointing to the return of Boyd Holbrook as The Corinthian. At the time, that surprised me, given that the show was covering two volumes of the "Sandman" comics per season, and The Corinthian doesn't appear until the penultimate volume of the comics. Fast forward to today, and now we know that The Corinthian still doesn't return until toward the end of Dream's story. It just turned out that the show was renewed for season 2 and then subsequently canceled, so the story concluded sooner than season 1's pace projected. But that's OK, because we got Holbrook's excellent portrayal of The Corinthian back on screen. We also got to see his palpable on-screen chemistry with Jenna Coleman, who plays the occult detective Johanna Constantine, and that was a revelation. We were introduced to Coleman's take on the character made famous by Keanu Reeves and Matt Ryan as John Constantine in season 1, and it worked. In her stint with The Corinthian in season 2, though, she shines alongside Holbrook. There's a smoldering attraction that is complicated by a couple of factors. First, the original Corinthian was a serial killer, so everyone is a bit on edge around this reincarnation. Second, he lacks any subtlety when it comes to his advances on Johanna during their brief time together. And yet, it works. By the end of their arc, there's a clear attraction on both sides, and you're emotionally invested not only in both characters, but their budding relationship with each other. That's why we need more from these two characters, and history indicates there's at least some appetite for it. "The Sandman" launched as part of DC Comics, but was shifted to DC's Vertigo imprint partway through its run. This darker sub-label, now known as DC Black Label, produces comics that are aimed at more mature audiences. If DC Comics is network television, Black Label is HBO. This imprint has also produced multiple TV and film adaptations. "The Sandman," "Lucifer," "Watchmen" — the list is genuinely too long for me to write out in full in this article. Of course, another character to feature prominently? None other than the antihero Constantine. Including their appearance in "The Sandman," Constantine has appeared in 10 shows and films. Case in point that people want more of these stories? A Johanna Constantine spin-off was in early stages of development prior to "The Sandman" being canceled by Netflix (h/t The Hollywood Reporter). Look, I get it. The sheer amount of CGI in "The Sandman" made it expensive. To say that Neil Gaiman is a toxic property these days would be an understatement. I understand why Netflix would want to leave this universe behind. But it also knows what a draw these shows can be. The streaming service saved "Lucifer" back in 2018, giving it life for another three seasons. I'm not saying make this a CGI-filled prestige drama. I'd personally make it a procedural, like "Bones," but with Joanna Constatine and The Corinthian at the center. Maybe it can be 'Constantine & The Corinthian: Dark Detectives'? It's a working title — we can workshop it. Just let us continue to love these characters that "The Sandman" brought to life.

When does 'Happy Gilmore 2' release? Date, cast, how to watch

Everyone's favorite golfer is back after almost three decades, and he's ready to swing again. "Happy Gilmore isn't done with golf — not by a long shot," the film's synopsis says. "Adam Sandler's short-fused legend swings for a comeback to make his kid's dream come true." Netflix first announced in May 2024 that Sandler, 58, would reprise his role as Happy Gilmore, a hot-tempered hockey player-turned-golfer, in the sequel to the beloved 1996 golf comedy "Happy Gilmore." The film is a favorite among Sandler's fans and found a cult following in the golf community. In the sequel, co-written by Sandler, Happy has left golf behind after a tragic accident years ago. When he needs to raise $300,000 to send his daughter, Vienna (Sunny Sandler), to a prestigious ballet school in Paris, Happy hits the links again, where he runs into old pal Shooter McGavin (Christopher McDonald). Happy also has to save traditional golf when an energy drink mogul (Benny Safdie) tries to popularize a more extreme version of the sport. What was 'Happy Gilmore' about? In the original film, Sandler plays a professional hockey player named Happy Gilmore who develops a passion for golf. Happy decides to join a golf tournament and win enough money to buy his grandmother's (Frances Bay) home before she loses it. During the tournament, Happy faces off against arrogant golfer Shooter McGavin, who is threatened by him. "With his powerful driving skills and foulmouthed attitude, Happy becomes an unlikely golf hero -- much to the chagrin of the well-mannered golf professionals," the film's synopsis reads.

Forgot to sign out of Netflix from your Airbnb or hotel? Here's the fix

We've all been there. You're scrolling through your Netflix "Continue Watching" list and suddenly see three episodes of a Korean drama you've never heard of and two rom-coms that definitely aren't your style. Then, reality hits: you forgot to sign out of Netflix at your last hotel or Airbnb stay and now strangers are messing with your carefully curated algorithm. This can mess with your recommendations and viewing history, not to mention the privacy concerns of strangers accessing your personal streaming profile. It's easy to forget about logging out when you're rushing to pack and catch flights. Fortunately, you don't need to drive back to that hotel room or call the Airbnb host. Netflix makes it surprisingly easy to remotely boot everyone off your account, no matter where you are. Netflix's remote sign-out feature works through its website, not the mobile app. When you use this option, it logs out every single device connected to your account simultaneously; you can't pick and choose specific devices. This means family members watching at home will also get kicked off, so give them a heads up. The process is immediate and irreversible, but everyone can simply log back in with your account credentials. You can't do this from the Netflix mobile app, so open a web browser on your computer, tablet, or even your phone. Navigate to Netflix and log in with your account details. Make sure you're using the main account holder's login information, as sub-profiles won't have access to the account management features you need. Once logged in, click on your profile icon in the top-right corner of the screen. From the dropdown menu that appears, select "Account." This will take you to your account management page where you can control various settings including device management, billing, and security options. Netflix (with ads): $7 a month @ NetflixNetflix remains a go-to streaming platform as it offers a large library of original movies, TV shows, and documentaries across every genre. With global hits like 'Stranger Things,' 'Wednesday,' and 'Squid Game,' it continues to dominate the conversation around must-watch entertainment. Plus, there's an ad-free plan, with flexible subscription tiers to fit your budget and viewing preferences. Standard plan (without ads): $15/monthPremium plan: $23/month Scroll down to about the middle of the account page until you see "Manage access and devices." Look for the option labeled "Sign out of all devices." This is the magic button that will remotely log out every device currently using your Netflix account, including that hotel TV, your forgotten laptop session, and any unauthorized users. When you click "Sign out of all devices," Netflix will show you a confirmation popup asking if you're sure you want to proceed. Click "Sign Out" to confirm. The process happens immediately and within seconds every device using your account will be logged out and will need to sign in again to access Netflix. After the mass sign-out, you'll need to log back into Netflix on all your personal devices. This includes your home TV, tablets, phones, and computers. Keep your login credentials handy, as everyone in your household will need to sign in again. The upside is that mystery device at the hotel is now locked out, and your viewing recommendations should start getting back to normal.
