Taskmaster Series 11 and Champion of Champions Line-Up Confirmed

10 short weeks ago, none of us had seen Richard Herring feed half a watermelon to a slathering Daisy May Cooper, and frankly, we were the worse off for it. Neither had we witnessed The IT Crowd’s Katherine Parkinson philosophically asking “Am I the spider?”, known how rigorously Johnny Vegas would apply himself to the task of putting the heaviest thing through a Christmas tree-bagger, or enjoyed Mawaan Rizwan thinking that if he filled an egg with helium, it would float like a happy little bee. All these, the tiny joys of a new series of Taskmaster. Now that series…

The Expanse Season 6 Confirmed by Amazon, Set as Final Season

The Expanse has officially set course toward a bittersweet threshold crossed by many-a-beloved shows: an advance renewal for its final season.

Borat 2: Subsequent Moviefilm is coming to Amazon Prime Video on Friday, October 23rd, and a first proper trailer for Sacha Baron Cohen’s hurriedly-filmed project attempts to give us an idea of what we’re in for, but …we probably still aren’t ready for what we’re about to get. The existence of a sequel to Baron Cohen’s 2006 comedy vehicle Borat!

Harley Quinn Season 3 Confirmed for HBO Max

When Harley Quinn finished up Season 2 on DC Universe, the story was wrapped up in quite a nice little bow, and though it could have been quite a fitting end for Harley’s surprisingly phenomenal animated adventures, we cried out for more. Along with being downright hilarious, the first two seasons pushed limits and explored the villainous side of DC like never before. So, in the spirit of one Dr. Harleen Frances Quinzel: why should we settle? Luckily, we won’t have to. Confirmed as part of DC Universe’s re-brand to a more comics focused DC Universe Infinite, Harley Quinn is…

Xbox Series X and Series S Launch Titles Confirmed So Far

The Xbox Series X and Series S will launch at the tail end of a turbulent year and introduce the next generation of gaming. While the console’s extensive backward compatibility support will help ensure that those who don’t purchase new Xbox Series X/S games will have plenty to do, we imagine that most new Xbox owners will go home with at least one launch title (even if it won’t be Halo Infinite). So far as that goes, it should be noted that the concept of a launch game is more complicated than it used to be. For the purposes of…

The show’s supplemental material strongly hinted at Lubey’s real identity. But now his identity has officially been revealed.  In a new video from Rolling Stone in which chief TV critic Alan Sepinwall chats with Watchmen showrunner Damon Lindelof, and…
