Welcome to Fine Tuning with your Taylor, your one-step shop when it comes to animation news and commentary.

I'm Drew's co-host, entertainment writer Jim Hill, and he and I are recording this show on Saturday, October 10th, 2020.

We've obviously got a lot of animation news to share this week,

but before Drew and I do that,

we'd like to remind you that the news portion of fine-tuning

is brought to you by Storybook

destinations trusted travel partners this podcast. For a worry-free travel

experience please book online at Storybook destinations.com. So very, very busy newsweek animation wise Drew.

Everything wise Jim. I'm exhausted. Let me tell you this was a this was a crazy week we had a lot of stuff and we had you know the

haunting of Bly Manor just premiered on Friday I got a lot of stuff pertaining to that

I mean yeah have you have you guys started watching that yet not yet okay what

would you say is the biggest story this week is it I mean it wasn't you were

actually saying on our last show in regard to sold to kind of watch this space so yes

this wasn't really a surprise for you right it wasn't a huge surprise but I think the Christmas Day element was interesting, and then also

the fact that it will just be on Disney Plus, it will not be a premium add-on like Mulan.

Because I had sort of theorized that it was going to go the more broadly VOD route,

so I thought that it was going to go, that you were going to be able to order it on TV on demand or that you

were going to get it from Voodoo or movies anywhere or something like that beforehand.

And then, you know, I thought by Easter it would be on Disney Plus.

But instead, nope, it's just going directly

to Disney Plus, free for every subscriber,

which is a huge, I mean that's a huge win
