Dark comedy is a tricky genre to pull off well, and very few shows manage it consistently. Since debuting in 2005, It’s Always Sunny has been a game-changer for TV comedy, known for not shying away from uncomfortable and even disturbing situations. The show paved the way for other series to push boundaries and explore darker humor.
Shows that once had small, dedicated fan bases—like Twin Peaks, Firefly, and Freaks and Geeks—are now often much more popular and widely known. However, many other fantastic shows with a cult following haven’t reached the same level of mainstream success and remain relatively unknown, despite being loved by those who have discovered them.
Recent Nintendo leaks have largely come from a YouTuber named NateTheHate, who has accurately predicted things in the past. While they’ve been right before, it’s important to remember not everything they say will necessarily happen. Some information is also appearing from other places, including a surprisingly well-informed anonymous commenter.
It’s tough to replace iconic characters like Mulder and Scully, but Ryan Coogler has chosen a talented pair who already starred in one of the decade’s best sci-fi shows. Before they investigate government secrets, audiences should check out their powerful performance in the emotionally gripping series, Station Eleven. This isn’t a story about the world ending; it’s about what remains when it does, and this casting is a great reason to revisit this ten-episode gem.
Because of the way Marvel movies build on each other and constantly add to the overall story, I think the first Avengers film has actually become more meaningful over time. Watching it again recently reminded me of a key theme that was present in the MCU before Avengers: Doomsday.
It can be tough to find a Harvest Moon game that feels as complete as Stardew Valley. Older games might not have enough features for players used to Stardew Valley, and some newer ones don’t quite capture the magic of the original Harvest Moon titles. Luckily, one game manages to hit all the right notes, and it’s celebrating its 20th anniversary today.
Crunchyroll offers a huge library of anime, but some fantasy series really stand out. Here are a few of the best, including both popular new shows and classic favorites, that you can stream right now.
With so many adaptations of Stephen King’s work, it’s easy for some to get overlooked. Even dedicated fans might have missed some, like the eleventh Children of the Corn movie or the 2023 prequel to Pet Sematary. Despite this, many excellent King adaptations don’t receive the attention they deserve. Mr. Harrigan’s Phone is a prime example – a surprisingly scary coming-of-age story that quickly faded from view on Netflix. But it remains a great choice for fans of It, exploring similar, unsettling themes that are sure to captivate audiences.
Alan Ritchson, the star of the Reacher series on Prime Video, not only has a diverse skillset but also excellent taste in movies. He’s revealed that Flight of the Navigator is one of his favorites, and even if that doesn’t pique your interest, the film has a lot to offer. It’s considered a standout from Disney’s somewhat darker period in the 1980s, and many viewers are surprised by how well it still holds up today.
According to FlixPatrol, Bambi: The Reckoning is now the third most popular movie on Peacock in the US. It’s currently behind only Wicked: For Good and Home, but ahead of films like The Wild Robot and the Oscar-winning Hamnet.
