Arcane didn’t just entertain – it redefined how people see animated series, which are often overlooked. Plus, the show boasts an incredible soundtrack and a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes. Even fantasy fans like Henry Cavill, star of The Witcher, were hooked, saying he ‘could not stop watching’ it.
Because of these changes, some inconsistencies are bound to happen, particularly with the introduction of different timelines and alternate realities. While fans might overlook minor inconsistencies – like Data occasionally using contractions in The Next Generation – others are major enough to create more confusion than clarity.
When Scrubs comes back, it’s as if the ‘Med School’ episodes never existed. The Season 8 finale will be the last story event shown, and the new series will start 16 years after that. While most fans agree ‘Med School’ wasn’t very strong, this reset does create one major problem: what happened to JD and Turk’s romantic relationship.
The second season of Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End premiered on Crunchyroll on January 16th and is quickly becoming a hit. It’s currently fourth on Crunchyroll’s weekly streaming list (behind Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3), and it’s also breaking records on MyAnimeList. The first season previously topped the MyAnimeList charts with a score of 9.28/10, but the second season has already surpassed that with a 9.31 rating – and only one episode has been released so far! New episodes are available weekly on Crunchyroll.
Wilde delivers even shocking lines with a casual indifference. For example, she might say, “Okay, I’ll sleep with you, but you need to bring someone else for me too,” or casually hand off a partner with instructions like, “Have fun with her, but don’t let her go all the way – she’s not that close to me.” Erika is a larger-than-life character who embodies Araki’s tendency to push boundaries and challenge norms. She criticizes the lack of openness around sex in younger generations, disregards workplace etiquette, and makes statements like, “Sex is everything, and also nothing,” which initially sounds contradictory but actually captures the essence of Araki’s approach to depicting sex in his films. (For further insight into Araki’s work, I recommend reading my colleague E. Alex Jung’s insightful 2019 interview with him.)
Pine jokingly suggested he’s less informed than most about what’s happening with Star Trek, hinting that Paramount Skydance hasn’t contacted him about future plans – at least not yet. He and the studio previously collaborated on the film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.
This show is remarkable for its blend of comedy and tough, realistic issues, especially as it delves into more serious topics. Over six seasons, BoJack Horseman follows the life of its main character, a former TV star from the ’90s who battles alcoholism and tries to stay relevant. Will Arnett voices BoJack, who is surrounded by a quirky group of people who support – and sometimes complicate – his path to understanding himself.
Ultimately, Goliath is a story about challenging those in positions of power. The show is a legal drama that really pushes its characters to their limits, forcing them to grow. While Billy Bob Thornton delivers a fantastic performance, what truly sets Goliath apart is how realistic it feels.
Jennifer Lawrence first received critical acclaim for her role in Winter’s Bone, then gained wider recognition in X-Men First Class and The Hunger Games. It was The Hunger Games that really launched her career and created a successful movie franchise that continues today. She starred as Katniss Everdeen in the original Hunger Games films: The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and both Mockingjay movies.
Good news for fans: a reboot of the show, spearheaded by Ryan Coogler, means we’ll likely see more of Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) in the future! In the meantime, revisiting all 11 seasons – and the film – is a great way to enjoy the series. However, despite the captivating world Chris Carter built and the show’s enduring popularity, one season consistently receives negative feedback.
