As 2022 gets underway, I am here to inform the readership that they will be seeing more and more content like this as I seek the make our Pop Culture narratives some of the coolest on the Internet. Now some of you might not have caught the joke, but the TNT Original Series “Snowpiercer” takes place in a world that has been frozen over and this dystopian Science Fiction drama has a third season beginning in the coming weeks. Earlier, we got the Official Trailer for the shows third go round and you can see it down below. I’ve repurposed the premise and casting from the other seasons for good measure so please enjoy.
The Premise: Snowpiercer is set in 2021, seven years after the world becomes a frozen wasteland, and follows the remnants of humanity who took shelter on a perpetually moving luxury train built by billionaire Wilford, consisting of 1001 carriages that circles the globe 2.7 times per year. The constant motion of the train provides energy and prevents the passengers from freezing as well. Since the catastrophe, the train’s population has become rigidly separated by class, caught up in a revolutionary struggle against the strictly imposed social hierarchy and unbalanced allocation of limited resources. The show explores issues of class warfare, social injustice, and the politics of survival.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: So what did you think? Did you enjoy this? I have to admit that I did enjoy the first season but for some reason never got around to watching the second season. Sure we were still in the throes of the pandemic but I had it recording on my DVR and forgot that I had not made some time to sit down and relax while watching. This is not a reflection on the program at all but more my own personal time. This disclosure is the reason that I only gleaned the trailer out of my side eye since I didn’t want to learn anything that might have transpired during the second season. My DVR will just have additional episodes for me to enjoy now so I better finish that marathon of ”The Honeymooners” that I recorded on New Year’s Day to make sure I have enough room. If you’re enjoying the series and its premise please feel free to chime in down below. The topical comments will be approved ASAP and the junk, well, not too much 😉 Stay safe out there and “Happy New Year”.
