Genndy Tartakovsky’s work brilliantly reinforces the mantra of “less is more.” Samurai Jack uses the trials of a time-traveling samurai to create an aura of loneliness and desperation, while Primal explores the unexpectedly moving friendship between a dinosaur and a caveman. More broadly, Tartakovsky’s focused ambition lends itself well to the at once mythic and intimate odysseys that he takes viewers on.
Tartakovsky’s new animated series, Unicorn: Warriors Eternal, centers on a group of magical beings—sorceress Melinda (Hazel Doupe), cosmic monk Seng (Demari Hunte), warrior elf Eldrid (Tom Milligan), and steam-powered robot Copernicus—tasked with fending off a monstrous evil through the ages, which means that they’ll need physical hosts to travel through time. So begins a dogged battle, with host body after host body thrown at an ageless villain that doesn’t require flesh to wreak havoc. Oh, and there’s one other complication: This time,...

Seven Kings Must Die concludes the story of Uhtred Ragnarsson, a decades-long frenemy of the English crown since the days of King Alfred the Great. It’s largely adapted from Bernard Cornwell’s final instalment in his Saxon Stories books, War Lord, along with elements of the two previous novels, and tracks the contested succession to the royal throne following the death of King Edward.
A significant time jump has taken place since the final moments of The Last Kingdom season five, during which Aelswith, Hild and Eadith have all passed or moved away. A core of male characters remains though, including Uhtred, Finan, Sihtric, Father Pyrlig and Aldhelm. They’re joined by brand new characters, as below.
Laurie Davidson as Ingilmundr
The biggest addition to The Last Kingdom’s regular cast is Aethelstan’s new trusted advisor, Ingilmundr, a Danish-born Christian who shows a powerful influence over King Edward’s successor.

Netflix officially pulled the plug on Fate: The Winx Saga after two seasons earlier this week.
However, the franchise may not be dead yet.
Winx franchise creator Iginio Straffi revealed this week that the Netflix cancellation "is for a bigger reason."
“Fate has been an exciting adventure, a great achievement, and a hit watched by millions globally, re-confirming the power of the Winx world,” Straffi shared on Instagram.
“I am working on many exciting Winx projects in the near future, some of which I take so much joy in sharing with you.”
One of those projects is a "brand new CG Winx animated series reboot," which is set to go into production soon.
The creator promises the show will "sweep you back to the Winx world."
If that wasn't enough Winx goodness, Straffi said that a "big budget Winx movie" is in the works.

Bloom Peters is just about done with restraining herself and her powers — and her friends are more than happy to help her out along the way. In a new trailer for Netflix’s Season 2 of “Fate: The Winx Saga,” the fairies are more powerful — and perhaps more reckless — than ever.
Of course, there are changes happening this season. As the trailer ominously warns: “The old regime is gone. It’s time to embrace the new one.” That new one is led by Headmistress Rosalind, who rules over the school with an iron fist. But apparently, she was also “working on some super mysterious s—.” As a result, fairies from Alfea are starting to go missing.
According to Netflix’s official synopsis for the season, “School’s back in session under the militant authority of Alfea’s former Headmistress Rosalind. With the Burned Ones gone, Dowling ‘disappeared’ and Silva imprisoned for treason,...

When "England 1890" flashes crosses the thunderstorm in season 2, episode five of Genndy Tartakovsky's "Primal," any devoted viewer will find themselves scratching their heads before re-orientating themselves. Numerous speaking roles in English? Brandy-drinking Englishmen in tailored suits? How did we land in a world of dialogue? Or rather, why the time skip from the prehistoric age to the English Victorian age? The episode, titled "Primal Theory," throws the audience for a loop.
The previous episode ended in a jaw-dropping bloodbath, with the vengeful scorpion-marked Vikings on the trail of our main cast: the caveman Spear (Aaron Laplante), T-rex Fang, and escaped slave Mira (Laëtitia Eïdo). The cliffhanger leaves you on the edge of your seat wondering how they will survive the next threat. So why pivot to a time period where Spear, Fang, and Mira have receded into fossils, their final fates unknown?

We are just days away from the highly-anticipated debut of Netflix's adaptation of Fate: The Winx Saga.
The series is adapted from the Italian animated series Winx Club, which aired for four seasons (2004–2009) before nabbing a revival at Nickelodeon for four more (2011–2019).
This live-action iteration chronicles the “coming-of-age journey of five fairies attending Alfea, a magical boarding school in the Otherworld where they must learn to master their powers while navigating love, rivalries, and the monsters that threaten their very existence.”
The trailer certainly shows off how the show is set up, and it looks like the lovechild of Legacies and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, which is funny because it features a cast member from the latter.
The good news is that the series will be a quick binge, spanning six episodes in its opening season, and there is scope for it to continue.
It will be fun to...

The trailer certainly shows off how the show is set up, and it looks like the lovechild of Legacies and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, which is funny because it features a cast member from the latter.
The good news is that the series will be a quick binge, spanning six episodes in its opening season, and there is scope for it to continue.
It will be fun to...

If there was a golden age of serial fiction, it might have been the era when Charles Dickens, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Mark Twain were publishing their stories-in-installments in print periodicals, with their readers desperately waiting for the next part of the tale. But if that’s true, right now might just be the platinum age of serial fiction. The digital medium is perfect for publishing stories as episodes, and modern readers who are used to receiving stories in an episodic format, thanks to television, may appreciate the medium in a more nuanced way than their historical predecessors.
Modern serials make use of both styles of writing. Some rely on a single author who publishes their novel bit by bit, keeping readers hooked. Others are developed in a television-style writer’s room. Some feature added features like music or illustrations, making use of transmedia opportunities made possible in the digital world.

“I’ve written the end of the world 100 times,” says legendary Doctor Who writer and former showrunner Russell T. Davies (quoted on the BBC website), “but I never imagined everyone just sitting at home.”
However, thanks to the global crisis that is Coronavirus/Covid-19, this is exactly the situation that people around the globe currently find themselves in – we’re staying at home as much as possible, wondering when normal human life will be able to kick back into action, and taking part in an endless stream of Zoom-based quizzes.
Amidst all this strangeness, the Doctor is offering a glimmer of hope. Current Doctor Who showrunner Chris Chibnall has rallied the ranks of Doctor Who writers past and present, egging them on to share new stories about that eccentric alien with the blue box.

To keep Whovians entertained while we’re stuck indoors during this period of quarantine, Doctor Who creatives past and present have been sharing new content online, with many of them featuring the return of fan favorite stars. The best of the lot, though, has to be this new video – released today – which finally wraps up beloved spinoff show The Sarah Jane Adventures in the most emotional, satisfying way.
First of all, in case you aren’t aware, Sja followed classic companion Sarah Jane Smith’s adventures after her life with the Doctor. It had a successful five season run from 2007 to 2011, and was only brought to a premature end when leading lady Elisabeth Sladen passed away. The series never got a proper conclusion, then, but creator Russell T. Davies has now brought together various familiar faces to give it a finale at long last.

The Doctor Who fan community has really come together since we all went into quarantine, with various livestream screenings of beloved episodes keeping us entertained. First of all, “The Day of the Doctor” got the treatment, with writer Steven Moffat and star Dan Starkey sharing a hilarious new intro for the anniversary special. Then it was “Rose,” which aired 15 years ago last week. For that, ex-showrunner Russell T. Davies not only wrote a short prequel to the episode, but also released an even longer sequel story which reveals the untold tale of what happens next.
As fans will know, “Rose” was the first installment in the modern era of Who, introducing us to the Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler as they battled the Nestene Consciousness and its army of living plastic mannequins. Obviously, the heroes defeat the alien monster in the end. However, this sequel reveals that the Nestene managed...

Richard Armitage, Siobhan Finneran and some oddball elements elevate this very serviceable mystery thriller…
This is a spoiler-free review and comes from Den of Geek UK.
Secrets! Everybody’s got ‘em. Sordid little lies tucked away behind incognito tabs and fake online usernames. Maybe you diddled your expenses or your mortgage application or your son’s clarinet teacher. Let’s say you robbed Peter to pay Paul, then knocked Peter over the back of the head with a golf club and fed his remains to Paul’s pig. Whatever foul canker you’ve shoved so far up inside your folds nobody could ever find it, you’d better hope that you don’t get a visit from the Stranger.
