Though not as widely recognized, Devs is often praised as a groundbreaking and bold science fiction show. It accomplishes more in just nine episodes than many series manage over several seasons. Initially, the show appears to be a suspenseful murder mystery, following a computer engineer named Lily as she tries to find out what happened to her missing boyfriend. Her investigation quickly leads her to the head of a powerful tech company.
When They See Us starts by introducing the teenagers who would later be known as the Central Park Five. The series then follows the harrowing events – the attack, the trial, and its aftermath. What makes When They See Us so compelling is its powerful and detailed portrayal of the case, focusing on previously unheard perspectives and avoiding the sensationalism often found in true crime stories.
A new Star Wars movie is arriving sooner than expected, with the story of The Mandalorian & Grogu leading the way back to cinemas.

And while Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles didn’t have the massive budget of later Terminator sequels, many fans consider it a superior story.

By 1999, after decades of shows copying Star Trek – and with Star Trek itself enjoying a comeback thanks to its movies and The Next Generation – Simpsons creator Matt Groening shook things up again with Futurama. Like The Simpsons, Futurama was funny and featured characters people loved, but it moved the action a thousand years into the future. The show cleverly poked fun at all the familiar themes and predictable storylines that had become common in science fiction because of Star Trek.
Marvel Studios revealed a new way to show its upcoming films at CinemaCon. Called Infinity Vision, this new format aims to compete with IMAX by offering a huge screen, improved picture quality, and more immersive sound. Both the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday and future films will be shown in Infinity Vision, which addresses a potential issue for Marvel later this year—though not everyone is expected to embrace this new approach.
DC Comics has seen great success with TV shows, ranging from popular series like Smallville, which offered a fresh take on Superman’s origins, to the large-scale Arrowverse, and darker shows like Gotham and Titans. However, Superman & Lois, which premiered in 2021, stood out and ultimately created a unique identity within the DC television landscape.
This new anime is a fantastic magical fantasy, almost flawless in its execution. What really makes it stand out are the characters – they’re all incredibly unique, lovable, and have well-developed personalities and stories. The English dub goes above and beyond to showcase this diversity, making the experience even better.
Not all filler episodes are pointless. While some simply rehash old material, others can actually enhance a show. They can offer lighthearted moments between intense storylines or explore smaller, character-driven plots. The best filler episodes seamlessly integrate into the series, feeling essential to the overall experience.
