Peacock’s ‘Dungeon Crawler Carl’ Has One Character It Can’t Afford to Get Wrong (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Dungeon Crawler Carl TV adaptation has a lot to live up to and quite a few things that are essential to get right. Pulling off the visual spectacle of the show will be a grind in every single episode, but the tone of the show will be a major hurdle as well. The book series has exploded in popularity largely because of how it balances irreverent humor with genuine heart. As it is, that has been a tight rope walk for the books since the beginning, and it's daunting to imagine how the Peacock s
Forget ‘The Office,’ HBO’s Ambitious 53-Episode Comedy Did Workplace Chaos Better (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NBC's The Office showed us that every workplace, no matter how mundane, is zany and full of heart on the inside. That concept clearly resonated with audiences, and it has been expanded on in other TV workplace comedies over the last two decades. Looking back now, it's clear that HBO's Veep took this idea to its greatest extreme, with high stakes for the United States and for the world in its most absurd storylines. Veep aired seven seasons with 65 episodes from 2012 to 2019, and nothing has live
Crunchyroll’s Next ‘Solo Leveling’ Is Officially Coming in 2027 (opens the original)

Not only is it another primary-world fantasy with medieval aesthetics, it's another adaptation of a South Korean web novel. If the

Read excerpt
HBO's Harry Potter remake has a lot to live up to — widely beloved books, cherished film adaptations, and one of the most successful media franchises of all time. Re-doing the story as a TV series provides a chance for new writers, producers, artists, and actors to get their hands on this material, and the show just announced several newcomers to the cast for Season 2. Jasper Ambrose will play the underclassman Colin Creevey, and Molly Hewitt-Richards will play Moaning Myrtle. The biggest news i
‘Star Trek’s Best Series Is Officially Reaching the End of an Era (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has its most dramatic days ahead of it. The prequel series has taken fans on an unprecedented odyssey of exploration, frequently experimenting with genre and tone in the process. That trend has continued in Season 4, which is airing now on Thursdays on Paramount+, with two more episodes to go. However, that won't be the case for the final batch of episodes, which is not far behind. The show was renewed for a fifth and final season last year, but it will only have si
