Comic Con Manchester 2023: The Overview
On Sunday the 30th of July 2023, I (Liv) went to Comic Con Manchester in the BEC Arena in Manchester (England, UK). We had been there for the whole weekend last year and we had an amazing time. We already struggled to do everything we wanted last year and now I was alone (well Tristan was with me, but no Carola) and I only had one day. In the weeks leading up to the con, some of the guests I was really looking forward to had to cancel (Lauren Cohan, Antony Starr, Chace Crawford and Kyle McLachlan), but the list of attending guests was still very impressive. What to think of Seth Green, Jessie T. Usher, Gustaf Skarsgård, Khary Payton, Jordan Patrick Smith and Clive Standen? Or Elizabeth Berkley, Mike Starr, Paola Lázaro, Cassady McClincy, Michael James Shaw, Alanna Masterson, Austin Amelio and Pollyanna McIntosh? Still not enough? Well, what about David Yost, Ethan Suplee, Dante Basco, Jake Busey, Lucy Martin, Philip Pope, Tessa Peake-Jones and Gwyneth Strong? Pretty impressive right? And to top it off, there was Zachary Levi, but he was only there on Saturday. Luckily, I had already met some of the guests on other cons, but there were still so many cool actors and actresses to meet. And then there were the merchandise, the props and so much more. I had a wonderful day and I can't wait to tell you all about it! Or better yet show you all about it

None less than 9 actors and actresses of the post-apocalyptic horror series will be in Manchester! Some of them we already met, others are on top of the want-to-meet list ;)... Let's get started!

Friends: The Experience - The One in Brussels
In the weekend of April 22nd and 23rd, we were in Brussels for the BIFFF 2023 (Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival). Luckily we had time to combine this visit to Brussels Expo, with something we were both very excited about. A few weeks ago we saw that "Friends: The Experience" had arrived in Brussels and as big fans of the show we were over the moon about this. The iconic TV show "Friends" aired from 1994 until 2004 and is seen as one of the most successful TV shows ever. Almost 20 years after the last episode, the show remains as popular as ever. Although we can't believe that you never heard of "Friends", we will now tell you a little bit about the show. Could we BE more excited?
