Netflix Announced a Bunch of New Anime and I’d Cancel It All for One More Second of This Jet Jaguar

As it is wont to do every few years, Netflix took to Japanese audiences overnight and announced it would continue acquiring and funding a metric butt-ton of new anime projects over the next few years.

This Might Be My Favorite Star Trek: Discovery Scene

It has had its bumps and its ups and downs, but Star Trek: Discovery has come bolting out of the gate with the start of its third season, leveraging its fascinating premise with stark, simple ideas that Star Trek has held since its very beginning. In the process, it’s finally undoing some of the things…

All The Mandalorian Info You Need to Remember Before Season 2

We know almost nothing about the new season of The Mandalorian. Oh sure, there are rumors. There’s even been footage. But outside of some very vague statements (and lots of Baby Yoda merch), we honestly have no idea where the story is going or what surprises could be waiting for us. Unless, well, you look back.…

Titans‘ Red Hood Is on the Warpath in New Season 3 Images

Though Titans has never been one of DC’s strongest live-action series, HBO Max has given the show a third season—and with it, yet another chance to capture audiences’ imaginations with its depiction of a gritty world in which the Titans are seemingly the only people really trying to take down villains. All sorts of new characters…

This RC Baby Yoda Waddles Around Your House Like a 50-Year-Old Toddler

The extreme level of secrecy behind the big reveal in the first season of Star Wars: The Mandalorian meant that the public’s immediate thirst for Baby Yoda merchandise went unquenched for a long time. Disney’s not making that mistake with season two, and ahead of the series’ return, Mattel has just revealed an RC version…

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina‘s Final Battle Arrives on New Year’s Eve

Appropriate that we can ring in the very end of this cursed year with witches and eldritch calamity.

Why the Hell Doesn’t the PS5’s Media Remote Have the DualSense’s D-Pad?

Recently I was going through what should have been a rather straightforward announcement from Sony detailing which streaming services the PS5 will support at launch. And while things ended up being a bit messier than need be, the image of the PS5’s Media Remote at the top of the press release has been stuck in…

Yeah, sure. We’ve got four hours to fill. Whatever! You do you, Zack! Yesterday we found out that Jared Leto’s damagéd takeon the Joker was being retroactively added into Zack Snyder’s new version of the fabled “Snyder Cut” of Justice League (aka a thing that did not exist until WB decided to give the director…

Even in Death, Quibi’s Legal Troubles Continue

Quibi’s leadership has finally plugged the plug on a streaming service for which failure has for months seemed like an inevitability. But if Quibi’s founders believed the company’s legal troubles would vanish along with the service itself, Eko would like to inform Quibi otherwise. Since before the service even launched, Quibi has been locked in…

The Witches Remake Is a Silly Comedy for Kids Who Aren’t Afraid of the Dark

Roald Dahl’sThe Witches was terrifying as both a novel and as a high-camp ‘90s horror-comedy. It presented, quite frankly, a world full of child-hating witches whose sole purpose in life was to exterminate young people. Robert Zemeckis’ new adaptation of the story is far sillier than any of its predecessors, but it still manages to…

Tim Burton’s Planned Addams Family TV Show Sounds All Together Ooky

Roku’s Streambar Is a Sandwich-Sized Soundbar Powerhouse

Most TVs these days can be improved with a soundbar—even a budget bar. But a soundbar that also doubles as a premium streaming device will check multiple boxes for people looking for both, particularly if their older sticks or boxes are no longer getting software updates that support newer streaming services. If this is you,…

Don’t Cry for Quibi

A former boss of mine, someone who worked at a legacy cable TV channel that starts with F and ends with “-ox News,” first told me about Quibi last February. “It’s bite-sized video. It’s run by Meg Whitman and Jeffrey Katzenberg! It raised a few billion!” If she was so excited about it, why hadn’t…

On Star Trek: Discovery, Ideals and Hope Are All We Have Left

If last week’s Discovery premiere was about Michael Burnham learning to share the hope on her shoulders with the people around her, season three’s sophomore episode is much the same for the crew of the Discovery itself. But there’s an inherent difference that plays a huge part in “Far From Home”—the crew already has people…

Unsolved Mysteries Somehow Didn’t Have a Podcast Before, But Is Getting One Now

Netflix’s revival of 1990s-2000s TV staple Unsolved Mysteries just dropped its second season, and while there’s no word yet on more episodes to come (fingers crossed!), there is some Unsolved Mysteries-related news today: the show is getting its own tie-in podcast.
