Winter 2026’s anime season has offered something for everyone – from exciting action shows to heartwarming stories and sweet romances. As the season nears its end in March, we’ll see which series truly stand out as the best of the year.
While some TV series are available to purchase on Amazon, and a few still have DVDs, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to watch shows that aren’t currently airing on traditional networks or popular streaming services. Unfortunately, many fantastic shows have been overlooked and haven’t received the audience they deserve.
I vividly remember spending the entire day crawling through the woods with this thing on, and it was really unpleasant. I immediately thought, ‘I never want to do that again!’ I felt so silly, and I have no idea how actors manage an entire movie wearing prosthetics. However, I knew it would all be worth it. We’d only been filming for a week, but everything I saw made me think this movie was going to be amazing, which kept me going. Plus, it wasn’t terrible – just a bit uncomfortable.
The popular monster franchise is still thriving. In 2024, the fifth film, Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire, was a major success, becoming the highest-earning movie in the MonsterVerse, as well as in the entire histories of both Godzilla and King Kong films. The franchise has also expanded to television with the animated series Skull Island on Netflix and the live-action series Monarch: Legacy of Monsters on Apple TV+. Because there have been so many different Godzilla and King Kong movies over the years, it can be tricky to figure out which ones are officially part of this connected universe.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is known for its humor, but it hasn’t really explored the romantic comedy genre—at least, not obviously. However, one MCU film secretly is a rom-com, and a surprisingly good one, reminiscent of classic 80s films like those by John Hughes.
As a big fan, I was really disappointed to hear from Wildlight Entertainment on March 3rd that they’re shutting down the game’s servers for good on March 12th. It’s sad to see it go, but they made the official announcement themselves.
Jim Gaffigan, Dallas Roberts, Elizabeth Marvel, and Andrew Burnap will appear as guest stars in Season 4 of The Gilded Age. Kelley Curran, who has been part of the show as Enid “Turner” Winterton since the beginning, will now be a series regular.
This action-packed adventure, inspired by the hit video game, features Mark Wahlberg as veteran treasure hunter Victor Sullivan. He enlists the help of Nathan Drake (played by Tom Holland) to find a legendary $5 billion fortune lost for 500 years. But they’ll need to overcome their differences and team up if they want to succeed, especially with a dangerous rival, played by Antonio Banderas, standing in their way.
The first National Treasure movie, released in 2004 and directed by Jon Turteltaub, stars Nicolas Cage as Benjamin Franklin Gates, a historian and treasure hunter. The film follows Gates as he unravels a mystery connected to the Freemasons, the Revolutionary War, and a daring plot to steal the Declaration of Independence. A sequel, National Treasure: Book of Secrets, came out in 2007. Though both movies received varied reactions, they offer a classic, family-friendly action-adventure experience that many viewers enjoy.
With its charming story and cozy, countryside style, Anne with an E was perfect for relaxing and enjoying. The show skillfully balanced heartwarming moments with important themes like gender equality, racism, and the difficulties faced by abandoned children. It even won a Canadian Screen Award – Canada’s top TV prize – for Best Drama Series, proving it lived up to the beloved books it was based on. Sadly, Netflix canceled the show after just three seasons, leaving fans puzzled and disappointed.
