An e-mail from Matt suggests actress Olivia Coleman for the future role of Umbridge in a Harry Potter TV series! Here is a highlight reel for your consideration. Should MuggleCast make Umbridge pillows that you can punch? And, finally, a mention of Umbridge from Half-Blood Prince is brought to our attention. In our Main Discussion, we ask Marissa about the creation of The Unofficial Harry Potter Character Compendium: MuggleNet's Ultimate Guide to Who's Who in the Wizarding World. How did this book come about, how did they gather information on over 700 characters, and which characters stood out to her in her research?! Special sections in the Barnes & Noble edition discuss MuggleNet's favorite non-canon characters, and who is the REAL hero of the Harry Potter series? What is the role of a fan site in 2020? We discuss the early days of MuggleNet and where it stands today The hosts play GUESS. THAT. CHARACTER! Quizzitch: What is Daisy Pennifold known for? This week's episode is sponsored by Quip!
