Following season 3 of the beloved animated series, Adult Swim and Rick and Morty co-creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland reached a deal that ordered a whopping 70 more episodes! Twenty of those episodes came to pass in seasons 4 and 5 and the next batch is set to arrive soon when season 6 premieres this fall. Just because Rick and Morty season 6 was inevitable, however, doesn’t mean that its network isn’t interested in hyping up the announcement....

Riverdale Season 6 Episode 9 “None of this makes sense.” As Riverdale‘s sixth season rolls on, the series finds itself struggling to fill its Big Bad-shaped hole in the wake of the departure of Mark Consuelos’ Hiram Lodge. The show’s current antagonist is Percival Pickens (Chris O’Shea), a newcomer who claims to be related to the town’s founder. His charisma is combined with an ability to mind control nearly everybody in his path, causing Archie to wonder if Pickens is the reason that he, Jughead and Betty have been gifted with superheroic powers....

Al Pacino played both men in both movies, and in each film, he begins the story as a punk. But in The Godfather, at least, he grows into the establishment. Michael becomes don. Tony was a shooting star on the other hand, one on a collision course with an unyielding atmosphere. Both roles are smorgasbords of possibilities to an actor, especially one who chased Richard III to every imaginable outcome....

Shameless Season 11 Episode 6 “It’s the end of an era…” Shameless widely advertised that this is the series’ final season, but this episode is the first time that it’s actually felt like the end of the show and that it’s getting ready to say goodbye. The first half of Shameless season 11 has been very messy and it’s even often felt careless at times. This is a season that’s been about change, both in respect to the Gallaghers and Chicago as a whole, which is a theme that’s been explored in many different manners, some of which have been more successful than others....

Series 7, which starts on BBC One on Wednesday the 10th of August at 9pm, promises to tie up Perez’s loose ends and follow up on last series’ will-they-won’t-they frisson with Irish carer Meg. Before Perez says his final goodbye to the evidence board though, there’s a missing person case to solve, and a host of new characters to interrogate. Here’s who he’ll be meeting… Shauna Macdonald as Rachel Cairns Rachel Cairns is the mother of Connor and Abbey, and a relative newcomer to Shetland....

According to THR, talks recently commenced with Godzilla vs. Kong director Adam Wingard about coming back for a fifth entry in the series. That would make Wingard the first director to helm a second film in the franchise, with all the others until now basically one-and-done efforts. There’s no timetable for when the film might go into official development or production, and Wingard himself has a full dance card at the moment with a sequel to Face/Off and his beloved big screen version of Thundercats both in his sights....

Yet, the decision to send Discovery to the future is possibly the best decision the series has ever made, giving the show a much-needed narrative reset that cut ties to things like Klingon wars and The Original Series legacy characters and sends it off to blaze its own path, unencumbered by the strings of existing canon. But now that Discovery is firmly established in the 32nd century, what can we expect from Star Trek: Discovery‘s upcoming Season 4?...

A new chapter in Cassian’s journey to the Rebel Alliance begins in “Aldhani.” After escaping the Pre-Mor agents on Ferrix, Cassian agrees to join one of Luthen’s Rebel operations on the titular planet. The mission is simple: steal the payroll of an Imperial facility. But to do it, Cassian and his new associates will have to sneak past an entire garrison of Imperial soldiers. Unsurprisingly, Cassian doesn’t like those odds at all....

McGregor and Lucasfilm spent years denying that there were plans to bring Obi-Wan back to the screen, so it’s very surreal to see a new series kick off filming in LA this month. In fact, Obi-Wan Kenobi is now shooting on the same soundstages used for The Mandalorian (which is reportedly why the third season of the latter show won’t premiere until late 2022). Stream your Star Wars favorites right here!...

Set about 200 years before The Phantom Menace, the High Republic is the Golden Age of the Jedi…but there are still some pesky threats. The pirate Nihil can create their own gravity wells and manipulate hyperspace, threatening any galactic travelers. Onto this scene comes Sylvestri Yarrow, a cargo hauler who discovers what she thought she knew about her mother was just a fraction of the truth. A classic Star Wars family clash, a deep dive into the workings of hyperspace, and the developing relationships between Jedi make this an entertaining book, even if the first half goes a lot slower than the second....

We’ve all been there before. You’re just going about your day, planning your next D&D campaign and then you hear it: the tell-tale sound of a deep, hellish chiming. A grandfather clock has appeared from nowhere and with it comes the knowledge that Vecna will arrive from the Upside Down to ensnare your mind, break all your bones, and intern your body in hell forever. Mondays, am I right? Such is the set of circumstances facing Hawkins, Indiana in Stranger Things season 4....

Picture the scene: you’re a Mind Flayer, hanging out in your hell dimension, all tendrils and tornados. You’re commanding your gross monster minions this way and that, when one day a tear appears in your reality. It was made in terror by a super-powered child from another world after she stumbled upon one of your grossest monster minions – the Demogorgon – while on a state-sponsored spy mission through the psychic realm in search of Russian secrets (what’s Russia, you think?...

To help you avoid spoilers, we’ve separated this guide by episode. Are you the type of Stranger Things viewer who likes to spot things in the background of each shot, like movie posters or toys that evoke nostalgia for the ’80s? The production designer and others behind the scenes of the much-beloved Netflix series take great pains to make each prop historically accurate, and the writers make sure that any reference uttered by the characters is something someone from that decade would actually say....

Expectations were high for the Stranger Things season 4 finale. That’s bound to happen when Netflix splits the penultimate season of its biggest hit into two parts, adjusts its shooting budget to essentially “infinite,” and then spends more than a full month teasing out the epic conclusion to come. The two episodes that make up Stranger Things season 4 volume 2 had a lot to deliver on. And thankfully for fans, those nearly four hours of television mostly succeed....

It’s fair to say that Strike: Lethal White didn’t have the most streamlined of plots. Condensing a 650-page novel with roughly the same number of characters into just four TV episodes produced a miniseries more squeezed than a carton of anti-depressant-laced orange juice. If you lost your bearings somewhere between the first ‘murder’, the multiple blackmails, the second murder, the secret affair, the valuable paintings, the inheritance scheme, the Zimbabwean war crimes scandal, and the long, tangled history between the families Chiswell, Knight and Winn, nobody could blame you....

The last time we saw Cormoran Strike, he was barrelling up the M1 on a traditional rom-com mission, but with a certain vagueness of purpose. Was he rushing to Robin’s wedding to give her back her old job, or to declare his love and stop her from saying ‘I do’? Whichever it was, she tied the knot and we didn’t see what followed. Two years later, our invitation to the reception has arrived....

Supergirl Season 5 Episode 9 This is how the Green Arrow dies: Not by saving the city, but by saving the entire universe. (At least so it seems.) It is the job of the beginning of the story, which “Crisis On Infinite Earths: Part One” most definitely is, to set the stakes for the crossover journey to come, and boy did this Supergirl starter do it. In an episode that begins with the destruction of entire worlds, including Argo City (the last remaining bit of Krypton), it might seem impossible to raise the stakes even further, but “Part One” does it, not only killing Oliver, but also Supergirl’s entire planet....

It’s weird being in the midst of an episode review for a show when you find out the whole thing has been canceled. But it’s especially disappointing when the episode you’re writing about is so damn good. Such is the case for “Worlds Apart,” the excellent second hour of the just-canceled Swamp Thing on the DC Universe streaming platform. Following an impressive premiere, the new episode – directed by executive producer, and Underworld master Len Wiseman — delivers more horror, some gore, and satisfying swamp monster hero action while setting up a supernatural element....

Legendary’s planned reboot of the frequently-rebooted bellwether horror film franchise was one week into production in Bulgaria when creative differences between the Tohills and the studio came to the colossal crescendo of the studio pulling the proverbial plug and parting ways with the directors, according to Deadline. The behind-the-scenes drama reportedly played out rapidly over the last 48 hours after the financing studio was rather unimpressed with the dailies turned in by the Tohills, resulting in an immediate rejection of their vision....

It’s no secret that things are quite bad in the world of The Boys season 3. Uber-corporation Vought International has a stranglehold on pop culture, churning out trite superhero content based on their actual superheroes that exacerbate America’s already problematic appreciation for authoritarian figures. But did it always have to be this way? What about the halcyon days of Old Hollywood in The Boys? The days where coked-out film execs knew what the public wanted better than any of these newfangled computers and their algorithms....
