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 […]

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 […]

One of the best animated shows out there is FOX's Bob's Burgers, the "little show that could" that finally caught on with the audience and it's been no looking back since. The show continues to bring fresh ideas to the table and constantly build up the world around it. With each passing and improving season, […]

I loved Invader Zim when it first premiered back in 2001. Its nasty childish dark humour filled my black little heart. Who wouldn't love a gothic kid's Science Fiction cartoon about an inept alien disguised as a middle-schooler plotting to conquer the Earth and the one kid who tries to stop him that nobody believes? […]

It's not too often that a kids cartoon show is around for twenty years, let alone pulling in some of its highest ratings ever.

From just the Upfronts alone, there was the announcement about […]

Looks like Adult Swim can add two more shows to their roster for November's Adult Swim Festival 2019, with Cartoon Network's conjoined twin announcing second-season pick-ups for Titmouse's sci-fi comedy Ballmastrz: 9009 from Christy Karacas; and Andrew Koehler and Benjamin Martian's fantasy series Tigtone (based on initial exclusive reporting from Variety). In an earlier interview […]

It's easy to dismiss FOX's long-running animated series The Simpsons. The venerable animated show certainly isn't the ratings juggernaut it once was, or producing brilliant satire in the same way it was in its 4th or 5th seasons, but who is expecting it to? However, while pop culture's "cool kids gaze" has moved to Rick […]

This year's Annecy Intl. Animation Festival has been nothing short of a parade of announcements and previews, and Warner Bros. Animation didn't disappoint.

Disney used the occasion of this year's Annecy Intl.

So far, we've liked what we've seen from DC Universe's adult-oriented animated series Harley Quinn – though granted, that hasn't been a whole lot up to this point. The streaming service has teased fans with minor details about the series since 2018's New York Comic Con (NYCC) and also included a few scenes in a […]

Over the past few weeks, the fine folks at FXX have treated fans to both an official trailer and enough previews for Archer: 1999 to make it feel like a public screening of the season – all meant to get viewers psyched about the gang's upcoming trip across time and space (and genres) ahead of its […]

Actor Christopher Meloni acting resume may list three roles in law enforcement in three of his most recent projects (we'll be opening debate on The Handmaid's Tale later), but that's pretty much where the similarities end. Because if you're finding a serious series of similarities between Law & Order: Special Victims Unit's Det. Elliot Stabler […]

Riding the success of a freshman season that was well-received by viewers and critics alike, Netflix's DreamWorks She-Ra and the Princesses of Power took flight to this weekend's Emerald City Comic Con (ECCC) as a way of thanking fans for their support and to tease what lies ahead for Adora and the Princess Alliance. During […]

The road to Netflix's next zombie apocalypse is going to sound a little familiar, with the streaming service revealing the voice cast for its animated adaptation of the the best-selling The Last Kids on Earth books by Max Brallier.
