• Tonight's Beverages: Water (Dirk); Autopilot (Otto) 
• Greetings and mop-up from last episode.
• TV news including Game of Thrones officially not coming until 2019; Starz is making The Continental about the hotels from the John Wick films; Amazon is making a Hanna TV series; Mad Men's Kiernan Shipka is cast as Netflix's Sabrina the Teenage Witch.
• The trailer to Hulu's adaptation of The Looming Tower:
  
• American Gods is having showrunner and cast problems possibly stemming from clashes with novel author Neil Gaiman. 
• In The Walking Dead news, Angela Kang has been named new showrunner replacing Scott "The Gimp" Gimple and Lauren Cohan is being sought for pilots leading to speculation as to Maggie's survival. (Not covered: Frank Darabont is suing AMC some more.)
• How Netflix's stunt with The Cloverfield Paradox blocked buzz about Altered Carbon leads to discussion about how there's too much TV and Otto can multitask while binging, but Dirk is simply falling farther behind.
• First Music Break: Adrian Belew, "Big Electric Cat"
  
• New release dates for Battle Angel Alita and The Predator. 
• The new teaser for Incredibles 2:
  
• Dirk reviews Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and I, Tonya.
• We non-spoiler review Black Panther. Dirk's non-spoiler DirkFlix review here.
• Then we move into the intense politicization beyond the Time magazine cover as it's attacked for insufficient LGBTQ representation from several fronts. (You can never be woke enough for SJWs.) 
• Referenced: The definition of Kafkatrapping.
• Leftist sites are lying about conservatives bashing the film like this smear against Ben Shapiro (you can see his full comments here)
• We tie this into the politicization of Star Wars: The Last Jedi and hack pieces like these from Vanity Fair, IndieWire and Vox and J.J. Abrams attacks his audience.
• Also succumbing to politics is Alex Garland's Annihilation which is getting blasted for "whitewashing" despite having a mostly non-gringo cast. Garland dons a hairshirt and mouths the appropriate shibboleths of contrite self-hatred. 
• Red Dead Redemption 2 has a release date.
• The most intriguing thing from CES was Creative's Super X-Fi Headphone Audio Holography which emulates a full Dolby Atmos experience with headphones.
• RIP: House of Cards/The Wire actor Reg. E. Cathey; actor and Ambassador John Gavin; composer Johann Johannsson (Prisoners, Arrival).
• Back on the market: Lena Dunham (who had a hysterectomy) and Jennifer Aniston.
• Skier from Toronto on vacation in New York disappeared and turned up six days later in California with no memory of how he got there.
• Chicago TV station says the Winter Olympics are at P.F. Chang's.
