Netflix and DreamWorks have partnered up for a massive slate of programming next year. In 2018, Netflix and DreamWorks Animated Television will debut six original shows. Some familiar titles and some brand new. Among the movies getting the small screen treatment are Trolls and The Boss Baby. In addition, TVweb is reporting that Netflix is rebooting the beloved 80s animated series, She-Ra, a spin-off of the old He-Man and the Masters of the Universe cartoon.

First up is Trolls: The Beat Goes On, which arrives on January 18, 2018. Picking up where the film left off, Trolls: The Beat goes On is an all-new chapter in the endlessly upbeat adventures of the Trolls as Poppy, Branch and all of Troll Village keep the party going in their fantastical forest home. Executive produced by Matthew Beans (Robot Chicken), the series features Skylar Astin (Pitch Perfect) and Amanda Leighton (This Is Us) as the voices...

Netflix and DreamWorks have a lot in store for the new year.

That “Kids” tab on that you get before the welcome screen on your Netflix is about to get more use as they are adding six new series for your kids and some of us adults to watch.

Film success seems to be the contributing factor for some of these series as they are continuations from those films. But some of these are just great series and continuing them is kind of a no brainer.

DreamWorks Trolls: The Beat Goes On!

A 344-million-dollar profit at the box office will see Trolls continuing with a new series. With that if you’re expecting Justin Timberlake, Ana Kendrick, or anyone else returning from the movie think again.

Netflix and Dreamworks Animation have announced that they have a new slate of animated series projects in development that are set to launch next year. One of the most exciting projects that came with the announcement includes a revival of the classic 80s series She-Ra: Princess of Power!

I hope that the series turns out to be good. I think it's something that my girls are going to love. I'm sure most of you are familiar with She-Ra, but if not, she is also known as Princess Adora and is the twin sister of Prince Adam a.k.a. He-Man. She was kidnapped as a baby by the Horde's leader Hordak. She is eventually given the Sword of Protection, which parallels He-Man's Sword of Power, gaining the power to transform into She-Ra.

The series is being developed by showrunner Noelle Stevenson, who is the Eisner-winning co-creator of Lumberjanes. Here’s...

For the honor of Greyskull: The Princess of Power is back!

Netflix has given a series order to an updated version of the 1980s animated action series She-Ra, the streaming video service announced Tuesday.

Children of the ’80s will remember She-Ra as the alter ego of Princess Adora, He-Man’s twin sister, who leads a rebellion to free the planet of Etheria from tyrannical rule.

Noelle Stevenson (the Lumberjanes comic book series) will executive-produce the cartoon’s reboot, which is described as “a modern take on the ’80s girl-power icon for a new generation of young fans” that will be...

Watching a Jack Russell terrier struggle to hop up on a bed at the end of “My Dog Skip” or seeing the look in a golden retriever’s eye after being told he’s not wanted anymore in “Air Bud” or recognizing the moment that a rabid Old Yeller isn’t the same family pet anymore — those are heart-shattering dog moments. But even though there are canines at the center of those stories, they say more about what it means to be human; to invest so much of yourself in a creature that will never speak your name.

That same spirit is the driving force behind “Downward Dog,” the latest ABC comedy that brings a surprising level of poignancy to a simple premise. Nan (Allison Tolman), newly broken up and drifting about at an unfulfilling marketing job, finds solace in the companionship of her dog, Martin. As the show documents...

“Downward Dog” was born nearly five years ago, and it all started when creators Michael Killen and Samm Hodges came across the Disney Channel series “Dog with a Blog.”

Killen, the owner of a Pittsburgh VFX production house, was aghast. As one of the minds behind Taco Bell’s infamous talking chihuahua, he had been hoping to do a show about talking animals for years. But this wasn’t it.

“I come in early one morning and my boss Michael looks distraught,” recalled Hodges, who was a commercial director at Killen’s company. “‘They took my idea,’ he says, ‘and they made a mess of it.'”

Killen then suggested that Hodges write it. Later that night, that’s exactly what Hodges did – and so began a wild ride that led from web short to ABC pilot,...

ABC announced Tuesday that it was tossing its hat in the ring of live TV musical events with “The Wonderful World Of Disney: The Little Mermaid Live!” Other details are sparse, but the enhanced broadcast of the 1989 Disney animated classic has been slotted for an October 3rd airdate.

While it’s a bit surprising that it’s taken this long for the network to take a Disney property (especially one that’s already had a Broadway run) and bring it to TV, it won’t be a full-fledged musical along the lines of the “Grease Live” or “The Sound of Music Live” productions that have popped up on other channels.

There’s also no word on casting for this ABC version of “Little Mermaid” yet. But, given the live-singalong format that they’re looking to adopt, they might veer close to the talent at the front of last year’s Hollywood Bowl production,...

Conservative sites are apoplectic with rage over ABC’s cancellation of Tim Allen’s “Last Man Standing.” But ABC Entertainment president Channing Dungey told reporters Tuesday that politics didn’t play a role in the show’s ax.

Those sites are accusing ABC of killing the show because of Allen’s right-leaning politics. Yet lost in the furor: ABC also canceled several shows with more left-leaning themes, including “American Crime” and “The Real O’Neals.” (This year ABC also canceled “Dr. Ken” and “The Catch.”)

ABC remains fully committed to “The Middle,” its signature Tuesday comedy starring another well-known Hollywood conservative, Patricia Heaton. The network is also reviving another blue-collar comedy, its late 1980s staple “Roseanne,” for midseason.

Maren Ade named best director as female filmmakers flourish.

Toni Erdmann continued its triumphant run at the German Film Awards on Friday night, taking home six coveted Lola statuettes in an evening dominated by strong women filmmakers.

Maren Ade’s tragicomedy received the Golden Lola for Best Feature Film as well as double honours for Ade (pictured at left) herself as director and screenwriter, plus statuettes for her lead actors Sandra Hueller (pictured at right) and Peter Simonischek, and a Lola for the film’s editor Heike Parplies.

Handled internationally by The Match Factory, Toni Erdmann began winning the hearts of critics and audiences around the globe following its premiere in Cannes’ Official Competition last year.

It picked up five European Film Awards in Poland’s Wroclaw last December – in the same categories as the Lolas except for editing – as well as Golden Globe and Oscar nominations.

Hours before Friday night’s ceremony in Berlin, the film’s...

Picture Tree International line-up also includes Jakob Lass’ Tiger Girl.

Picture Tree International (Pti) has confirmed its line-up for the upcoming edition of Efm at the 67th Berlin International Film Festival (February 9 - 19, 2017).

In its fourth year, the Berlin-based sales and distribution company returns with a slate including Jakob Lass’ Tiger Girl, which will receive its world premiere as a Panorama Special in Berlin; action-comedy Hot Dog, starring Til Schweiger and Matthias Schweighöfer; and Zaza Urushadze’s (Oscar nominated for 2013 drama Tangerines) The Confession.

Tiger Girl, for which Pti has acquired international rights, is Lass’ second feature, following Love Steaks (2013).

In Hot Dog, Schweiger and Schweighöfer will play two friends who make it their mission to free the daughter of the Moldovan ambassador from her kidnappers.

The film is currently being shot in Berlin and is expected to be released in autumn 2017 by Warner Bros. Pictures Germany.

Exclusive: Tangerines director’s second feature is being presented as a work-in-progress at Warsaw Film Festival.

Berlin-based sales agent Picture Tree International has taken international rights to Monk, Zaza Urushadze’s second film as a director.

Georgian film-maker Urushadze’s debut feature was Tangerines in 2015, which was nominated for a foreign language Oscar and also a Golden Globe.

Monk, which is being presented as a work-in-progress tomorrow (Oct 14) at the Warsaw Film Festival (Oct 7-16) where buyers will be able to view a first-look promo, tells the story of a film director-turned-priest whose life in a small mountain village begins to unravel when he meets a local music teacher who is hiding a dark secret.

The feature, which is expected to be delivered early 2017, is being produced by Ivo Felt of Estonia-based Allfilm and Zaza Urushadzes company Cinema24, with the support of Estonian Film Institute and Georgian Film Center. Filming took place in Kakheti, Georgia in July...

With two mainline expansions in the pipeline for The Witcher III: Wild Hunt, Polish developer CD Projekt Red has today lifted the lid on the RPG’s first batch of story Dlc, Heart of Stone. Announced via the brooding teaser trailer above, the add-on will debut for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC versions of the title on October 13, before Blood & Wine concludes the studio’s Wild Hunt content rollout in Q1 2016.

Featuring a new gameplay mechanic called Runewords, Heart of Stone is primed to shake up gameplay in a major way, with CD Projekt Red noting that “each Runeword will impact a different aspect of in-game mechanics and will allow the players to experiment with various strategies and tactics.” For a RPG that welcomes different playstyles with open arms, fans of Wild Hunt will be pleased to note that that intoxicating, liberating freedom will remain intact throughout the expansion.

Aniston, 46, was spotted in Atlanta, Ga., on Monday, Aug. 24, looking tanned and happy — and with a new accessory to boot.

Jake Gyllenhaal‘s gritty indie “Southpaw” is punching above its weight at the box office, grossing $22.5 million in its first week, but the ring is about to get very crowded. There are four more high-profile boxing movies going to the mat over the near year and a half, from Warner Bros.’ “Rocky” spinoff “Creed” to Robert De Niro’s return to the genre in “Heart of Stone.” “This is the first time that I can think of where there were so many that it’s threatened to be overkill,” Fandango chief correspondent Dave Karger told TheWrap. “I don’t envy whichever the last one.

They lead, and in doing so contribute to their community and help build character by getting out of the way.

Ah, this is the comic book I’ve been waiting months for. Black Science has finally ended its hiatus, and it starts off with a bang and never lets up the pressure.

We’re thrown into a dimension of some kind of fish people who have plans to eat the “goblins” who have teleported into their midst. Kadir is our narrator this time, describing his childhood and the way that he was raised as he tries to save Shawn, Rebecca, Nate, and Pia. This dimension just doesn’t let up though, and even though he manages to rescue them from certain doom in some sort of coliseum, they wind up in a chase that splits the group up yet again.

First of all, and this will sound really dorky, but I’m really...

It’s time to forget everything you know about vampires.

Although the pop culture landscape is currently littered with blood-suckers — most of them very good-looking — the vampirism found in FX’s The Strain is entirely new (and way, way creepier).

20. Carousel Man

Year: 1973

Album: Half Breed

Chart Peak: N/A

When the album Half Breed came out in 1973, it represented a bit of a comeback after two previous chart disappointments, thanks to the #1 title song (which we’ll be seeing later), which makes it curious why the second and final single “Carousel Man” was only released as a promo to radio DJ’s, and therefore failed to chart on the Hot 100. It remains memorable thanks to that bizarre merry-go-round hook.

While the financial success of “Ride Along” proved that comedian Kevin Hart can be a box office draw, it also seems to have provided a little boost towards Ice Cube’s career. MGM Studios have just announced that they will re-open the “Barbershop” for a third time with Cube signing on to reprise his role as Calvin Palmer in "Barbershop 3." This announcement comes ten years after “Barbershop 2: Back in Business” was released and the studio hopes Cedric the Entertainer and Queen Latifah will also return to the franchise. Both “Barbershop” movies were solid financial hits back in the day. The first film, which came out in 2002, made over $77 million on a $12 million budget; “Back in Business” made slightly less money ($65 million), but still managed to be a make more than double its budget ($30 million). The movies revolved around the adventures of Calvin Palmer and his crew of barbers who...

Alice gets some very welcome character development in this entertaining episode of Once Upon A Time In Wonderland...

This review contains spoilers.

1.6 Who's Alice?

It isn’t flashy—there’s little suspense, the action is mild, and there are no plot twists—but Who’s Alice? is possibly my favorite episode of Once in Wonderland so far. It feels like we’ve spent the past five weeks hanging around someone who’s fixated on impressing us, and now she’s finally letting loose and we realize she’s pretty cool after all. Though the adventure story clichés and overdone odes to the power of true love are still there, this week they are trumped by the more human drama of Alice struggling with loss and alienation.

Alice, while traveling through the Black Forest, follows a heavenly bright light (never a good idea) into a...

This review contains spoilers.

1.5 Heart of Stone

Never fear, Wonderland fans—a little setback like turning to stone can’t keep the Knave of Hearts from his turn in the spotlight. But even more than the lovable Will, this week focuses on Emma Rigby’s Red Queen, who continues to defy expectations by taking her character to a more complex, emotional level (though her duck face is still really distracting). Unfortunately, these increasingly three-dimensional characters are pasted into a decidedly flat plot.

In flashbacks, Will/Knave and Anastasia/Red Queen are about to leap into Wonderland when they are forced to face off with—surprise!—Anastasia’s mommy issues. You didn’t think we’d get through a Once spinoff without some of those, did you?...

This season of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia has continually provided fresh takes on the traditional sitcom format, while still staying true to their roots. The result has been a season that has been thoroughly enjoyable thus far, especially for long-time fans of the show.

Tonight’s episode, Frank’s Back In Business, reverted a bit to a typical episode, but it still threw in some references to the best moments of the show’s past including touching on Charlie’s bird obsession, the old Kitton Mitton and Paddy’s shotgun commercial, Mac’s second identity, and the erotic life of Dennis Reynolds.

The episode begins with Frank’s old company, Atwater, in deep trouble. They’re so desperate that they again call upon “The Warthog” to save them from going under or being sold. Frank rushes in to save the day, increasing productivity and shedding the company’s dead weight,...

This is a logical and long overdue move for the show. We know Frank's loaded financially, but we never really saw him in action when he actually was earning his nut. But here, we get a glimpse of "The Warthog" in which he plays a Gordon Gecko-like business magnate.

Though I know I shouldn't laugh, Frank's racist comments about "Chinks" and the "Jap Broad" always strike a comical chord. And yet again, Charlie serves as the social commentary, the driving factor for spelling out what's wrong with Wall Street and the finance industry.

"What do we create? What do we build? What do we produce?"

He speaks for most middle-class average Americans who wonder what the purpose is. Their exchanges point out the absurdity of their existence, but then again those same...

Kate Gosselin told The Huffington Post that she didn't care about what her “haters” thought about her, which is fortunate because once again Kate finds herself in the middle of controversy, following her reaction to news that her hairdresser had regained power after Hurricane Sandy.

“Back In Business!!!!!!” tweeted Jason Backe, the partner of the reality star's hairdresser, Ted Gibson, along with a picture of his salon lit up.

“Hallelujah! So happy!” responded an enthused Kate.

Gibson, who boasts on his website that he is “perhaps most known for toiling over the tresses of top celebrities, including Anne Hathaway, Debra Messing, Angelina Jolie, Ashley Greene, Joy Bryant, Zoe Saldana, Emma Watson, Gabrielle Union and many more,” might actually be most famous for Kate's first major hair makeover in 2010, which took a reported 20 hours and would have cost $7,000 had the reality star not received it complimentary.

“Like many women, her hair...

The Twilight Saga soundtracks have always been met with consistent praise for being well-coordinated and including impressive artists. In the same tradition, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2's original motion picture soundtrack is quite a fitting end to the series indeed. The fourteen-track album contains a few numbers that harken straight back to the original tone of the Twilight Saga, like St. Vincent's "The Antidote" and Feist's "Fire in the Water" - both of which are bound to be an instant fan favorites especially given the latter's placement in the film. It also produces a few fun new sounds, such as the song by Paul McDonald and Nikki Reed, "All I've Ever Needed," Passion Pit's "Where I Come From," and Pop Etc's "Speak Up."

Since it began back in 2008, a key component of The Twilight Saga has been its soundtracks, and things are no different for Breaking Dawn - Part 2. Read on for the track listing, which includes Green Day and series star Nikki Reed.

Per MTV, iconic punk rockers Green Day will have a song on the album, along with Passion Pit, Ellie Goulding (whose track is produced by real-life love Skrillex), Nikki Reed with her real-life husband "American Idol" alum Paul McDonald, and such Twilight soundtrack veterans as St. Vincent (she contributed to the New Moon album) and Christina Perri (who previously appeared on the Breaking Dawn - Part 1 soundtrack).

Green Day bassist Mike Dirnt shared with Yahoo! Movies why the group wanted to get involved with the franchise as it bids a final farewell. "When we were asked to be part of the 'Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part 2' soundtrack, we...

I was excited to write up my reactions to the just released Breaking Dawn Part 2 soundtrack listing, because I truly love the previous soundtracks from the franchise and think Music Supervisor Alex Patsavas always does a killer job cultivating tracks that suit each film’s mood. However, I know that my deep entrenchment in the Twilight fandom might make my opinion a little biased. Yes, I drink out of a giant Twilight cup and can identify every pair of Kristen Stewart‘s sneakers out of a shoe lineup, so my thoughts are certainly tainted by years of Twi-obsession. So take these silly, quick comments with a couple grains of salt, okay? They’re my unedited, unresearched, immediate reactions. Besides, we all know this soundtrack could be made up solely of songs by The Wiggles and I’d still love it.

I thought their last album was a dud,...

'Twilight' star Nikki Reed and new hubby, Paul McDonald, lend their talent to the final 'Breaking Dawn' soundtrack! We can't wait to hear All the romantic tunes Edward and Bella will be kissing to! On a sad note, all good things must come to an end -- even our beloved Twilight series. But on a good note, it looks like the final installment of the series -- Breaking Dawn Part 2 -- will debut its best music yet. The full track list has been revealed and it includes a wide range of artists from music legends Green Day to electro-pop group Passion Pit. Talk about a star-studded track list -- now all we're missing is a Robert Pattinson ballad. Now, without further adieu (cue the drum roll!) ... 1. Where I Come From — Passion Pit 2. Bittersweet — Ellie Goulding 3. The Forgotten — Green Day 4. Fire In The Water — Feist 5. Everything And Nothing — The...
