Notice: Season 3 of The Bear Coming Soon
The Bear is one of the best TV shows coming out right now. Believe me when I say that it lives up to all the hype. Had I watched the second season when it came out last year, it would have been my favorite show of the year with ease. I plan on watching season 3 when it comes out on time next month.
Some spoilers in this little trailer, so don’t watch if you aren’t caught up.
Season 3 should be a hoot! Plenty of places to go, plenty of drama and comedy to be had. I can’t wait!
The Bear returns to Hulu on June 27.

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.

Danny DeVito and Aubrey Plaza are Making a Cartoon!
I am a fan of random adult cartoons that show up on streaming services and various channels. I’ve watched Inside Job, Chicago Party Aunt, Solar Opposites; and now I have Little Demon to look forward to from Danny DeVito and Aubrey Plaza!
Looks both tame and interesting. So it’ll fit right in among those other shows I mentioned, and probably a dozen others that I’ve since forgotten I watched. But FX usually makes good stuff. And if Danny DeVito wants to make an entire cartoon show just to get his daughter a starring role in something, I’m all for it! The man can do no wrong.
Little Demon arrives on FXX and Hulu on Aug. 25. So I have a month to forget it even exists.

An Even Better Look at Hit-Monkey
The Hit-Monkey cartoon is still coming out on Hulu in less than a month, and we have kindly been gifted yet another trailer. It reveals a lot more than that first teaser trailer, so that’s cool. I still think this cartoon looks weird as heck, but a lot of good people spent a lot of good time working on it. So you best believe I’m gonna watch!
This looks so weird and so neat. Did Hit-Monkey have a ghost partner in the comics? Or did the cartoon makers realize they needed somebody to actually talk instead of a purely silent protagonist the whole time? Do you think Hit-Monkey will talk in this cartoon? Maybe just between him and the ghost?
We’re all gonna find out on Nov. 17 when Hit-Monkey comes to Hulu!

They Went and Made That Hit-Monkey Cartoon
This is a complete surprise. Marvel went and actually made that Hit-Monkey cartoon. Insanity. Remember a couple of years ago, when Marvel and Hulu announced a series of wacky cartoons? Like Howard the Duck and a team-up between Dazzler and Tigra? Only for Marvel Studios to eventually step in and declare most of those projects dead?
Welp, looks like the Hit-Monkey cartoon just kept churning away under the surface, ready to pounce when we least suspected.
It looks…OK. I’m pretty sure I saw Fat Cobra and Lady Bullseye in that trailer, so neat! But otherwise the whole thing feels kind of off. I’m going to watch Hit-Monkey, no doubt. It’s just weird.
Granted, I absolutely loved the M.O.D.O.K. cartoon that came from the same batch of ideas. So maybe I’ll love Hit-Monkey! But jeez…does anybody even remember Hit-Monkey? Wasn’t he some kind of weird Deadpool spin-off idea that went nowhere? But hey, he’s got a cartoon show before Deadpool gets a cartoon show! So he must be doing something right.
Hit-Monkey comes to Hulu on Nov. 17.
