The highly anticipated sequel season featured many noteworthy developments, such as the growing romantic tension between Maomao and her royal employer, Jinshi. The complete top 5 list can be viewed below.

Totk's Master Sword falls short of high expectations with only 30 base damage. Lore indicates the Master Sword should be exceedingly powerful, yet it is outclassed by other weapons. Limited conditional boosts make the Master Sword strong, but frustratingly inconsistent.

One of the most important items found in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom can also feel like something of a scam when it is finally obtained. Totk features a range of cool weapons, armor, and various other items for Link to find, all of which can be obtained at varying levels of difficulty throughout the game. However, in the end, one of the most prominent items found in any playthrough hardly seems worth the effort that has been put into it.

Considering the size of TOTKs map, it comes as little surprise that the story it tells is equally expansive. Although Link can skip portions of the game,...

Shonen anime heroes are as plentiful as they are similar. They are usually underdogs who come into great power and become the very best in their respective fields. However, some shonen heroes have a lot more depth to them than those with the traditional trope.

The most complex shonen heroes are more than just underdogs or characters with immense power. They have emotional trauma or complicated relationships with the people around them. They may even have dark pasts from which they are trying to escape. Some have even failed to be heroes in the past. Whatever the reason is, these shonen heroes are more than the sum of their parts.

From 2019 to today, a variety of delightful new shnen anime like, Demon Slayer, have hit the airwaves to carry on the torch from older classics.

It’s Monday so you know what that means, it’s time for our weekly review of Aew: Rampage! This week’s show was broadcast from North Charleston Coliseum in North Charleston, South Carolina and featured Excalibur, Ian Riccaboni, Don Callis and Matt Menard on commentary. Now let’s get to the review…

Under normal circumstances, ESPN’s documentary series “The Last Dance” would have been a success. Centered around Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls’ pursuit of the 1997-98 NBA Championship, the series examines both Jordan’s cultural legacy, with all the superhuman accomplishments, and the super human conflicts and complications that plagued the team and the organization from the start.

But in light of our current situation — the 10-part documentary series was originally scheduled to premiere June 23, before ESPN decided to accelerate the release date more than two months spurred by fan fervor and a shocking dearth of sports programming — “The Last Dance” has gained additional resonance. What might have once been an entertaining trip down memory lane, exploring one of basketball’s most exciting dynasties, now carries with it an urgency and communal experience usually reserved for live events and, well, sports.

For better or worse, sports serves as a foundational aspect of American culture,...

It is, on the surface, fairly innocuous news. On Tuesday, Variety reported that Netflix had successfully petitioned the Television Academy to allow the second episode of the fifth season of “Black Mirror” to compete as a TV movie at the Emmy Awards, despite not qualifying based on its running time.

The problem with the decision has little to do with “Black Mirror” and everything to do with the Academy arbitrarily undermining its own rules and regulations.

In December 2018, during its usual annual re-evaluation of its rulebook, the TV Academy restructured the Outstanding Television Movie category to clarify that in order to qualify as a “TV movie” a submission must be at least 75 minutes long.

With the pandemic and the unraveling of the global economy, the warped weather patterns spurring snowstorms in the Midwest and vicious tornados in the south, and the complete lack of sports goofs to fuel the internet’s viral video market, it’s no wonder that many Americans are streaming entertainment like it’s their day jobs.

And that’s no exaggeration. According to a new study from market research company OnePoll, while much of the country is waylaid by safer-at-home edicts, Americans are watching an average of eight hours of content per day after obtaining access to an average of four different streaming services.

But what, exactly, are viewers hoping to get in exchange for their precious time?

It depends.

One need look only as...

Well, it’s finally here.

After months of queries and quibbles and confusing commercials, Quibi, the billion-dollar brainchild of Jeffrey Katzenberg, as overseen by Meg Whitman, is here and ready to stream its initial offering of celebrity-driven content.

Quibi has built its distribution model around offering short-form content — episodes are limited to 10 minutes or less — optimized for a generation of viewers raised on viral videos and YouTube personalities. To that end, the talent Quibi has brought on board trends heavily toward the young and hip, with Chrissy Teigen hosting her own court show and Chance the Rapper resurrecting “Punk’d.” They even have a show where a mentalist breaks former NFL star Rob Gronkowski’s brain, though that seems less impressive than you’d think.

It doesn’t matter who you are or how distant your socialization has become, chances are you’ve heard of Netflix’s latest zeitgeist-capturing documentary series, “Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness.”

The limited series debuted March 20 on the streaming giant and in less than two weeks has become the internet’s latest collective obsession, spawning speculation, investigation, discreditation, and, well, memes.

The appeal of “Tiger King” is largely its outlandish characters. The fact that said characters are actually real life people only intensifies their idiosyncrasies, making that much more irresistible to the literal captive audience the series has found thanks to the global pandemic.

At the center of the show is Joe Exotic, the eponymous “Tiger King,” a collector of large cats and his nemesis, animal rights activist Carole Baskin.

I remember when extra-long TV episodes were a selling point. If “The X-Files” was airing a two-hour “television event,” Fox would lead its promos with the upped runtime. Finales were given extra gravitas with extended episodes, and sweeps week was filled with mega entries of each network’s highest-rated shows. “Longer” was meant to equal “better,” even though the motivation for most of these episodes was based in selling more ads around a popular program, rather than the program’s creators begging for more time.

Nevertheless, the “longer=better” concept has cemented itself in the minds of not only TV viewers (as those ads intended), but many of today’s TV creators, as well. Even when ads are a non-factor — like series on premium cable and streaming — there’s an abundance of flagrant offenders. Shows like Amazon Prime’s “Hunters” (which starts with a 90-minute pilot), HBO’s “The Outsider...

Midway through the Season 3 premiere of Netflix’s “BoJack Horseman”, the eponymous lead sits in a bar, reluctantly playing the publicity game forced on all Hollywood creatives when it comes time to hype their projects. In BoJack’s case, he’s promoting his upcoming film, where he stars as Secretariat, and is consequently courting the affections of the press, all the better to fuel his Oscar hopes.

If you have even a vague familiarity with the series, it will come as no surprise that BoJack isn’t at his finest when being interviewed, and the grind of a publicity tour is clearly wearing him down. So when the reporter asks him what’s in the works for him in the future, the prickly horse is pretty exasperated in response.

“What do you mean, ‘What’s next?’ Why does everything have to have a next?” he asks, beginning to panic.

La Fortaleza’s sales agent is using Breaker’s blockchain technology to track its revenues.

Us-based blockchain-powered streaming platform Breaker, the company behind Alex Winter’s Trust Machine, The Happy Worker, executive-produced by David Lynch, and Rotterdam Tiger title La Fortaleza, has unveiled a slew of new projects.

It has boarded Keith Bearden’s completed Us-set suburban coming of age drama, Antarctica, starring Chloë Levine and Kimie Muroya, backing low-budget Guatemalan drama Luz, and investing in Chinese director Shujun Wei’s Striding In The Wind.

Owned by SingularDTV, Breaker is also involved in a long-gestating TV drama called San Pedro,...

We live in an age of adaptations and endings, two unique narrative challenges which too often lead to disappointment, particularly for the most ardent and dedicated of fans. So it was no wonder that “Watchmen” showrunner Damon Lindelof — co-creator of “Lost,” which features one of the most controversial series finales of all time — was a little nervous about how audiences would receive the final episode of the HBO series, adapted from the iconic comic book series by Alan Moore.

Those fears were ultimately for naught, as the episode was roundly acclaimed as a fitting end to a sterling season of television, but given his relationship with finales you can hardly blame him. Because Lindelof and his team stuck the landing, it’s worth looking at their methodology in adapting Moore’s series to learn more about what works when you’re crafting a story that needs to serve two masters...

Exclusive: Roma Maffia (Nip/Tuck) and Tony nominee Daniel Breaker (Passing Strange) are set for recurring roles in the upcoming fifth season of Billions, Showtime’s drama series starring Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis. Season 5 is in production in New York and will premiere on the network in 2020.

Created by executive producers/showrunners Brian Koppelman and David Levien, along with Andrew Ross Sorkin, Season 4 of Billions saw former enemies Bobby Axelrod (Lewis) and Chuck Rhoades (Giamatti), and Wendy Rhoades (Maggie Siff), the chief counselor to each, come together to form an uneasy but highly effective alliance, aimed at the eradication of all their rivals. They include Grigor Andolov (guest star John Malkovich), Taylor Mason (Asia Kate Dillon), Bryan Connerty (Toby Leonard Moore) and Waylon “Jock” Jeffcoat (guest star Clancy Brown).

David Costabile, Condola Rashad, Kelly AuCoin and Jeffrey DeMunn also star. Julianna Marguiles and Corey Stoll will guest star in...

It’s been several days since the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced its Golden Globe television nominations, but they aren’t sitting any better now than when they first surfaced.

Neither time nor distance has dulled the sting of the organization wholesale dismissing the work of Ava DuVernay’s Netflix limited series “When They See Us,” including the Emmy-winning performance of Jharrel Jerome. It’s also still painful to think about how with 30 acting spots available, the HFPA managed to only nominate three people of color — Rami Malek for USA’s “Mr. Robot,” Billy Porter for FX’s “Pose,” and Ramy Youssef for Hulu’s “Ramy.”

Instead, the Golden Globes opted to celebrate actors who are already familiar with accolades, thanks to their years spent on the red carpet circuit. Oscar-winners and Hollywood heavyweights were all over the TV nominations, creating a weird, insider version of six-degrees of separation. Alan Arkin...

It’s easy to assume that with the launch of Disney+ on November 12, the streaming wars will have reached a plateau, allowing consumers to recalibrate their lives in order to make room for Jennifer Aniston and Apple TV+, as well as the luxury of having the Marvel Cinematic Universe at their fingertips.

But any sort of ceasefire is sure to be temporary, as 2020 promises even more competitors in the streaming game, including NBC’s Peacock and WarnerMedia Entertainment’s prestigious — if confusing — HBO Max. And while you’d think the quest for supremacy in the digital age would come down to things like quality of programming and appeal to audience, the truth is that for all the millions, nay, billions being thrown around behind the scenes at these global corporations, the make or break reality is that the streaming battles will likely come down to a matter of dollars and cents.

To hear social media tell it, the debut of HBO’s “Watchmen” could not have gone better, with viewers thrilled by the audacity of the storytelling and intrigued by the fact that the series was not what they anticipated prior to watching.

From within that very specific prestige TV bubble, it felt as though every person in the world — or every person who mattered — was watching the show as it aired; proof positive that watercooler watching did not die with “Game of Thrones” and that there was hope yet for the collective viewing experience.

And then the ratings were released.

It’s not that the numbers for “Watchmen” were bad. (They weren’t.) But it’s also not that the numbers were good. (They weren’t.) It’s that the numbers, like almost any ratings in the streaming era, were inscrutable.

According to HBO, 1.5 million people watched the premiere across...

Danish filmmaker Grahtø’s feature debut stars Lisa Carlehed and Victoria Carmen Sonne.

The psychological drama stars Lisa Carlehed as an uptight researcher specialised in the field of suicide, opposite Victoria Carmen Sonne as a suicidal psychiatric patient she is treating. The pair form a strong bond but as they get closer it becomes clear that something is not as it seems.

Breaker, the blockchain-enabled entertainment platform, is getting into the television game. The company has added six-part miniseries “Bad Banks” to its library of film and music titles. The series is directed by Christian Schwochow, who previously oversaw episodes of “The Crown” and backed by Kino Lorber. It aired in Germany and in the U.S. on Hulu.

Breaker will offer the first “Bad Banks” episode for free to Us audiences. The show follows Jana Liekam (Paula Beer), an up-and-coming investment banker in Luxembourg who loses her job when her conniving boss plots to get her axed. She leaves for a different job only to find that she’s still being manipulated.

“’Bad Banks’ is just the type of episodic content we are proud to offer on Breaker,” said Breaker’s Co-founder and President of Entertainment Kim Jackson. “We greatly admire Kino Lorber’s impeccable taste.”
