Adult Swim did it's part to bring a little joy back to April Fool's Day, dropping the official trailer for Rick and Morty season 4.5 during the wee hours – and as you're about to see, this is clearly no joke. At a time when we find ourselves locked up in our homes, our small […]
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 […]
It's been an interesting midseason for Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's Rick and Morty. Ever since their Super Bowl adventure with Pringles, the show's pimped doughnuts for Krispy Kreme (we're still bitter since it was only in Australia), urged us to wash out hands (and get our s**t together) over coronavirus concerns, and possibly clued […]
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 […]
Did Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's Rick and Morty reveal a hidden truth about our civilization's past? Thanks to an archeological find from earlier this year, that might just be the case. And no, you're still reading an article about the Adult Swim series – your brain didn't suddenly jump to some other dimension. Let […]
This new vibe of offering viewers more intimate, behind-the-scenes moments appears here to stay – at least for the time being – on My Hero Academia… and I am definitely good with that. This episode was well-structured on a number of fronts and brought tears to my eyes for many reasons. From beginning to end […]
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 […]
The second part of this season of My Hero Academia has had more of a slice-of-life anime vibe; however, last episode brought us back to the action we are quite used to. This episode started right where it left off and showed how Deku is more than capable of holding his own against a villain… […]
Adventure Time creator Pendleton Ward and comedian Duncan Trussell teamed up for some adult animated adventuring over at Netflix with The Midnight Gospel. Co-created and executive produced by Ward and Trussell, the series focuses on Clancy, a spacecaster with a malfunctioning multiverse simulator who leaves the comfort of his home to interview beings living in […]
On My Hero Academia "Gold Tips Imperial", we continue to see Class 1-A giving their best to prepare for the upcoming School Festival. Once again, not much really happens in this episode. Mostly set-up… but for what? Hmmm… However, I am sure that we will soon be up to our quirks in impeding doom before […]
The growing outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) is being felt all across the pop culture landscape. Earlier today, we reported on how Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune have shifted to tapings without studio audiences over health concerns. As public health official continue to warn against attending events with large crowds, we're learning that shortform digital […]
On My Hero Academia "Prepping for the School Festival Is the Funnest Part", we get to see Class 1-A put together the plans for the school festival. While the vibe is amazing and it is nice to see them back in the school setting, not much really happened in the episode. At least it moved […]
Last episode of My Hero Academia kept the chill vibe going, and I am very glad to see our heroes-in-training back to the school setting. I know it might seem weird and oddly anti-climactic after a few of them almost died fighting the Shie Hassaikai – but we all needed some unwinding after a ton […]
Without tipping our hand pre-review, Cartoon Network's reboot of feline-like alien heroes ThunderCats Roar! really worked for us on a number of Teen Titans GO!–Rocky & Bullwinkle levels. Now that we're less than a day away from premiere "Exodus Part 1 & 2" (Saturday, February 22 – unless you already previewed it through the app), […]
Love it or hate it (we're lovin' it), Cartoon Network's reboot of the feline-like alien heroes ThunderCats Roar! makes its way onto our screens with "Exodus Part 1 & 2" starting this Saturday, February 22 (unless you already previewed it through the app). With only a few days to go, the network's released another video […]
While fans wait patiently for Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland's religiously popular Rick and Morty to return for the second-half of season four, the Adult Swim animated series is reaching out to Australian fans (sorry, rest of the world) in a way that would make Homer Simpson proud. At least until Rick Cronenberg'd him, that […]
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 […]
Cartoon Network and Warner Bros. Animation's reboot of the feline-like alien heroes ThunderCats Roar! comes crashing onto Cartoon Network screens with "Exodus Part 1 & 2" starting Saturday, February 22, so you might be asking yourself, "Who are these strange feline-like characters being danced before my eyes?" Well, the network's been doing its part to help […]
