You know a cartoon will be useful when its creator is responsible for the absolute longest-running animated series of all time. Netflix wanted in on the Matt Groening action. And thus, Disenchantment was born. The hilarious animated fantasy series first popped up on the streaming platform in August of 2018. A year and one month after, a new set of adventures began. We have all since eaten each and every single exciting episode up. We may have already laughed our hearts out, but we still want more. Will we be getting a part 3 or 4 to the series? Disenchantment…
Few modern cartoons have found themselves to be as culturally relatable as BoJack Horseman. The adult animated series first aired on Netflix in the year 2014. It has since spawned six seasons and a legion of followers from all over the globe. Let’s have a quick look at what happened in the last season and if Bojack Horseman Season 7 will happen or not. What happened in BoJack Horseman Season 6? We were in for a treat when it was announced that the show’s sixth season would be relatively longer than its previous ones. Up until then, a season of…
Cop shows are a dime-in-a-dozen on cable TV, but very few of them have as lasting an impact as the now-iconic CBS drama Blue Bloods. The show has been on the air for ten whole years! That is definitely no ordinary feat. CBS Blue Bloods Cast Tom Selleck top-bills this story of an Irish-American family in the city of New York as Frank. Together with Donnie Wahlberg, Bridget Moynahan, and Will Estes, who play his children Danny, Erin, and Jamie, they form an otherwise typical family whose lives are irretrievably intertwined with the field of law enforcement. They are crime…
Who is Elliot Alderson? When Mr. Robot was first released in June of 2015, the world was introduced to an erratic hacking genius whose technological exploits we watched oh-so keenly from the comfort of our homes. There’s no denying it: everyone was hooked on his story from the very start. Over the course of four seasons, as we saw him work for the eccentric Mr. Robot, we all thought we got to know him a little better than when we first met him. Who could have predicted what Season 4 had in store for us? Mr. Robot Season 4: What…
Who would have thought that we would be so blessed to see all of the Fuller House characters we loved, but a whole 15 years after we thought we said goodbye forever? Through the power of Netflix, that is what happened when Fuller House flashed into our screens in 2016. The spin-off of the beloved series has since seen four full seasons of more than a dozen episodes each, and it was as though there was no sign of it slowing down. Now the million-dollar question is when Fuller House Season 5 (Part 2) is coming out? Too Good To…
For the past five years, Silicon Valley has taken us all on quite the ride. It introduced us to some of the most lovable and determined tech geniuses around. It brought everyone a little closer to the world of that famous Californian technology hub in the Bay Area. The Emmy-winning HBO comedy series has run for six nearly-perfect seasons. On December 8, 2019, it aired the finale episode which bid goodbye to the much-loved series. And much like the 52 episodes that came before it, “Exit Event” was nothing less than an enjoyable and satisfying romp. Silicon Valley Season 6…
The article has been updated to reflect new developments. The superhero film Shazam! took the box office by storm this time last year. You would think we’ve had enough with all of the onscreen adaptations of our beloved comic book characters bombarding us again and again—show, after the film, after show. Well… we still want more (Shazam 2 to be precise!). Shazam! The sleeper hit stood on its own at a time when Marvel almost had a monopoly of all the superhero movies and with good reason. Who wouldn’t fall in love with a humorous turn of one of the comic book…
No other villain in the universe—Marvel’s Cinematic Universe that is—needed the combined forces of an entire roster of superheroes to defeat him. In Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Doctor Strange saw more than 14 million scenarios play out. And yet, the Avengers were only able to defeat him in just one. Yes, Thanos is that powerful. When he had the Infinity Stones, a single snap from him can do so much! Everyone wants to hate him (and everyone does). At the same time, it’s hard not to bow down to how incredibly great he is as a character. Let’s do that right now. We…
Decoding Us (2019) and the Ending that Left Everyone Thinking What the hell just happened? That is the reaction truly well-crafted horror flicks seek to elicit from their viewers. I guess it’s true what they say—good horror films will shock you, but great horror films will boggle your mind. Perhaps one of the best films that the horror genre has given birth to in the previous years is the 2019 thriller Us. Penned and brought to life by the same genius behind 2018’s Get Out, what else was there really to expect from a film featuring a riveting performance by the award-winning phenomenon that is Lupita Nyong’o?…
