TV Shows

Cowboy Cartel, which debuts on Apple TV Plus on August 2nd, is a four-part documentary show about a rookie FBI agent who took down the leaders of the Los Zetas drug cartel by tracking their money as it was laundered through a US horse racing enterprise.

There will be plenty of traditional television series like Shōgun and The Bear in the running at the 76th Emmys in September. But given how many Netflix, HBO, Apple TV Plus, Disney Plus, and Amazon projects were just nominated for awards, this year’s competition seems like it could easily go to the streamers.

That’s a new limited series coming to Netflix from Haley Z. Boston and Upside Down Pictures (the production company launched by Stranger Things co-creators Matt and Ross Duffer).

“According to the logline, the series will follow a bride and groom in the week leading up to their ill-fated wedding,” says Netflix. “And obviously, it’s not a spoiler to share that not all goes right with the nuptials.”

Though it’s smaller than previous waves, Deadline is reporting that Warner Bros. Discovery is laying off another round of employees across its “production, business affairs and finance” arms as it continues to find ways to cut its spending.

We all knew the Stranger Things kids would look a bit older for the show’s fifth and final season, but seeing them all back in Hawkins High in this new behind the scenes video really emphasizes how the show’s last chapter can’t get here fast enough.

It may be summer, but anime powerhouse Science Saru is teasing something decidedly winter-y with Sanda, an upcoming series that depicts “Santa Claus hero action like you’ve never seen before.” There aren’t many other details, but it’s supposedly “coming soon.”

There was some hope that The Umbrella Academy might switch up its formula and give the Hargreeves siblings a new kind of adventure for the show’s fourth and final season (out August 8th.)

But Netflix’s new trailer kinda makes it seem like they’ll be doing what they always do — averting an apocalypse of their own making.

Thanks to Hulu’s Futurama renewal last year, we’ll be seeing more of Fry, Leela, and Bender until at least 2026. And for the show’s upcoming 12th season (due out July 29th), we’ll apparently see the Planet Express crew meet “A.I. friends (and enemies” as well as learn the “true 5 million-year-old story behind the consciousness-altering substance known as coffee.”

It’s been three decades since CLAMP blessed with world with their Magic Knight Rayearth magical girl manga, and in celebration of the franchise’s 30th anniversary, TMS Entertainment has announced that it’s working on a new anime adaptation that will once again see Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu Hououji become the guardians of the planet Cephiro.

Oh, and about those rumors you may have heard about a feature film or television series based on ELDEN RING… I have nothing to say.  Not a word, nope, not a thing, I know nothing, you never heard a peep from me, mum mum mum.  What rumor?

Much like MTV News and its archives, Pimp My Ride is no longer with us, but Netflix’s new car restoration show Resurrection Rides looks like it’ll be the next best thing when it premieres on July 24th.

Amazon’s new Batman: Caped Crusader series from executive producers J. J. Abrams, Matt Reeves, and Bruce Timm sounds very much like yet another Batman origin story. But the show’s 1940’s, Golden Era of comics vibe makes it seem like it’ll make for a kitschy watch when it debuts on August 1st.

Ahead of the season two finale of its Interview With the Vampire adaptation, AMC has renewed the show for a third season that will see Lestat become a touring rockstar trying to tell his tragic story through music.

HBO is banking on a new Harry Potter adaptation to ensure its future success, and the network announced today that the project will be written / executive produced by Francesca Gardiner (Succession, His Dark Materials) and directed by Mark Mylod (Game of Thrones, The Last of Us).

DC Studios heads James Gunn and Peter Safran have been tightlipped about their True Detective-inspired Green Lantern series.

But we’re about to start hearing a lot more about it now that HBO has officially greenlit the project for eight episodes, and announced that Chris Mundy will be showrunning with Damon Lindelof and Tom King writing.

The third season of The Bear will be released three hours earlier than planned, Deadline reports. You’ll now be able to watch the 10-episode season starting Wednesday at 9PM ET on Hulu.

The show, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, is an adaptation of The Hedge Knight, a novella by George R.R. Martin. There will be six episodes in this initial season.

Here’s the show’s synopsis, from Warner Bros. Discovery:

A century before the events of “Game of Thrones,” two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros… a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg. Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes, and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.

Everybody Hates Chris is one of the best sitcoms to ever grace television, and Comedy Central’s bringing it back with an animated revival that will see Chris Rock, Tichina Arnold, and Terry Crews reprise their original roles.

So Jon Stewart said of TV network deals while talking to Matt Belloni on his The Town podcast about his split from Apple TV Plus.

9to5Mac highlighted some of his statements, like that he didn’t view Apple limiting his show’s content as censorship. Head to the link below to hear the whole interview.
