        The wait is almost over?! After a Netflix Netherlands mistakenly released a poster with supposed release dates for January 29th AND February 26th... Yep! Another two-part release. So is it true?! Eeek! I need my boy Benedict back on screen. **sigh** Alas, we will just have to wait and see.

          Is it October 7th yet?!? Can't wait to watch this live! I wonder if it will just be the voice actors making an appearance, or if they will configure a moment where their animated counterparts are there as well? Either way, it's going to be great!
