Second Season of After Party, Baby!
After Party on AppleTV+ was my favorite show last year. It’s a murder mystery in which every episode explores a new suspect using a different genre, like action film, musical, cartoon and much more. And now there’s gonna be a second season and they’re gonna go wild with it!
A Wes Anderson episode?! Hells yes! I love Wes Anderson. Asteroid City was really good. And I’m excited for a second season of After Party. Will hopefully be another banger.
After Party season 2 comes out on July 12, which is really soon.

Hopefully More Futurama is a Good Thing
Look, I like Futurama as much as the next guy. Classic Futurama. Much like The Simpsons, the latter seasons/episodes of Futurama were not as good as the originals. But I still watched, I was still mildly entertained, if I remember correctly. Welp, they’re bringing it back for more episodes for some reason.
None of that looks individually exciting, just that more Futurama will be neat. Notice how they use a lot of Bender dialogue, to make sure we know that John DiMaggio is for sure coming back. Ah well, I’m sure it’ll be a fine watch.
New Futurama is coming to Hulu on July 24.

Tuesday Trailerpalooza
Last week, a metric ton of new trailers come out for everything from indie movies to big action movies to TV shows to video games. How am I supposed to keep up with them all? By dumping them on all in a single post on a Tuesday. Go me!
First up is the new movie Bottoms, which looks pretty fun as a silly, potentially raunchy high school teen comedy.
I might for sure give this one a watch if it comes to a theater near me. Could be funny. Could be really bad. There’s only one way to find out. Bottoms comes to theaters on Aug. 25.
Next up, let’s check out the trailer for the second season of Good Omens!
I really enjoyed the book, I really enjoyed the first season, and I’ll be happy to watch a second season. I’m sure they’ll have a ton of fun with this one! I think it’s an entirely new story, since the book didn’t have a sequel. As long as it’s got Neil Gaiman’s seal of approval, I’ll be content.
Good Omens season two comes to Amazon Prime on July 28.
Thirdly, it’s the full trailer for the long-awaited Venture Bros. wrap-up movie, which has the silly title of Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart.
I love the Venture Bros. as much as the next person. I even cosplayed as Henchman 21 at a couple of comic cons. Those pictures exist on the internet. Anyway, as much as I loved the show, I was somebody who got annoyed at how rarely new seasons came out. They were good seasons when they did…but they also rarely accomplished anything, paid off anything or were very memorable for the next five years of new content.
It was a shame when the show got cancelled, but…eh. I’ll gladly watch this movie. Hopefully they do pay off everything they put into this series. Or maybe there will just be more movies.
The Venture Bros.: Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart will come to digital and DVD at the end of July.
Lastly, for now, we got a full game trailer for Moral Kombat 1.
I’ve played pretty much every Mortal Kombat game of the modern era. I’ll probably play this one at some point. Looks fine. No sign of Smoke, though, so perhaps I’ll have to wait for Mortal Kombat 2. I’m sure this one will be as fun as all the others.
Mortal Kombat 1 comes out on Sept. 19.
