Clearly, we were in the minority when it came to Michael Cusack's animated Australian version of Rick and Morty, because we weren't huge fans of 2018's "Bushworld Adventures." We're hoping that the reason it was released by Adult Swim on April Fools Day was that they knew just how shockingly annoying it was – in […]
This season, My Hero Academia has given us one quality episode after the other – and "Japanese Hero Bilboard Chart" keeps that momentum rolling along. It was interesting to see how they are finally trying to get things back around to superhero action again. This episode proved much more of a balance between slice-of-life anime […]
I am so happy I stumbled upon Cartoon Network's Steven Universe Future finale. It really did not disappoint. I feel these final episodes really captured the essence of the last season without making it preachy or beating us over the head with heavy-handed messages. It had every bit the emotional impact that I was expecting, […]
Adult Swim has stepped up to combat all of this staying at home and "involuntary social distancing" by making a ton of their content available to stream for free. This is in many ways perfect, as this takes me back to a couple of decades ago adolescence, when I'd stay home most Friday nights and […]

Looking to jump into some classic Disney cartoons? Here are some of my favorites that I think you and your family will enjoy! So let's get […]
It was one thing having to wait for the midseason return of Adult Swim's Rick and Morty when our lives were normal and we had a number of other pop culture "shiny objects" to keep us distracted. But now with more and more of us finding ourselves in lockdown… self-quarantining… social distancing… and every other […]
This week, a little-known convention, Eagle-Con 2020, has been booking some big name talents. With collaborations between California State University Los Angeles and the Art Directors Guild, this annual event has developed into quite a fete. For example on Thursday, lauded author Steven Barnes was the recipient of the Octavia Butler Memorial Award, named after the […]
With Cartoon Network and Warner Bros. Animation's reboot of the feline-like alien heroes ThunderCats Roar! making the airwaves with "Exodus Part 1 & 2" next Saturday, February 22, the network's been releasing a series of video "Who's Who" to get everyone up-to-speed on this slightly… ummm… "different" version of the ThunderCats that most of you have […]
The battle between Lion-O's ThunderCats and Mumm-Ra comes crashing onto Cartoon Network with ThunderCats Roar!, Warner Bros. Animation's reboot of the feline-like alien heroes. How excited?

Are you a fan of Adult Swim's Rick and Morty? Do you remember Third Rock from the Sun? Then Hulu's Solar Opposites may be the show for you! Hell, even if you don't remember the sitcom, it's still likely to be an interesting show to check out. Probably worth the watch for at least a […]
HBO Max is using today's Television Critics Association (TCA) winter press event to flex a little DCU muscle while James Wan (Aquaman, Malignant) isn't quite ready to let go of "The Seven Seas" – and the result? Three-part animated mini-series Aquaman: King of Atlantis, set to be executive produced bt Wan through his Atomic Monster production […]
Looks like Roger's going to have a little more time to develop a whole gaggle of new personalities, now that TBS has renewed Seth MacFarlane's long-running animated series American Dad for two more seasons. Created by MacFarlane, Mike Barker, and Matt Weitzman, with Weitzman and Brian Boyle serving as co-showrunners, the series is set to […]
Netflix went the "good news/bad news" route in September, leaving fans of BoJack Horseman a swirling mix of emotions. On one hand, the streamer released a trailer for the sixth season – which is airing in two parts: first was October 2019, with the season returning January 31, 2020. The bad news? Netflix's critically-acclaimed and […]

Animation rebooting the feline-like alien heroes for the new animated series ThunderCats Roar!. How […]
There were rumblings once it was announced Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige was taking on the role of chief creative officer for all things Marvel Entertainment. Film, television, comics, Underoos – all the stuff that "The House of Mouse" has its tail wrapped around. That was seen as a potential problem for someone like Jeph Loeb, […]

Looks like Mattel Television has the power to introduce a new generation to He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, this time as an original CG animation series for Netflix. Not be confused with filmmaker Kevin Smith's companion 2D Netflix "anime" (???) series Masters of the Universe: Revelation, the new series is part of Mattel's […]
Fans of Adult Swim's Rick and Morty counted down the months and days until Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's animated mayhem returned to their screens. That wait ended early last month with season premiere "Edge of Tomorty: Rick Die Rickpeat" (reviewed here), where we got a crash course in "death crystals" and gained a deeper […]
