Welcome to Season 3

Year of the City 2026... Enter the Carousel

Hello Hues Crew,

Projected Hues returns in 2026 with the launch of Season 3, and we’re opening the year with one of our most ambitious deep dives yet. To kick things off, we’re taking on a film series that is not only iconic, but personally meaningful: the original Planet of the Apes saga, explored from start to finish.

The Planet of the Apes series holds a special place in the heart of this show. It’s my favorite movie franchise of all time, a perfect blend of bold allegory, imaginative world-building, and enduring cultural impact. These films helped shape my love of cinema, and every re-watch reveals new layers and insights. Season 3 is our chance to celebrate what makes this saga so extraordinary.

January–March 2026: Episodes 35–39

Episode 35 — Planet of the Apes (1968)

Episode 36 — Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970)

Episode 37 — Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971)

Episode 38 — Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972)

Episode 39 — Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973)

Thank you for joining us as we begin another year of cinematic conversation.
