<br>Some of these have ended up using the same cast as the original, while others have gone off in new and often very productive artistic directions. The most successful and enjoyable examples of this phenomenon are reminders of how integrated the entertainment industry has become. Imagine, for a moment, a world where the only version of Buffy was the movie. Fortunately, Joss Whedon reclaimed his knowing, meta stab at horror movies with the TV incarnation, casting Sarah Michelle Gellar as the cheerleader-turned-chosen-one supernatural slayer and launching a thousand memorable lines of dialogue. Buffy excelled because it ran real-world struggles through the medium of fantasy and horror (and occasionally song), giving us great villains, romantic entanglements that felt painfully honest, and a Mystery Inc. style gang we’d all hang out with. And even despite recent years’ sobering revelations regarding toxic behaviour occurring behind the scenes of the show, what we see on screen — and the connection shared between fans and the cast of Buffy — will never die. Like Dracula (who, fittingly, Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss moved on to), Sherlock Holmes is one of those evergreen characters that is endlessly reinvented, either with a period-appropriate take or adapted for the present day of whoever tackles him. The creative duo plumped for the latter, bringing the deerstalker donning detective bang up to date with texting, sexual innuendo, bromance and real brio. Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman have long since entered the canon of great Sherlocks and Watsons, and their every move is charted by a massive, enthusiastic fan base. A BBC classic, Moffat and Gatiss’ take on the great detective is both witty and wonderful, and we’ve still not given up hope that the game may once again be afoot someday in the future. Frasier mastered the tricky combination of mostly using smarts (and the odd pratfall) to get its laughs. Like the quality comedy theatre it aspired to emulate, Frasier’s appeal continues to endure, despite the recent revival of the show being less than appointment viewing. There have been zombies before – lord knows, there have been zombies – but The Walking Dead gave the post-apocalyptic concept time to carry on, and on, and on, exploring the ramifications of a total societal breakdown.<br>
<br>An animated short film that follows a young boy learning about wonders of nature, in celebration of Earth Day. Based on the beloved children’s book by Margery Williams, The Velveteen Rabbit comes alive in this holiday special. Combining animation and live action, William gets a new toy for Christmas, a woven rabbit doll. The rabbit magically comes alive and the pair go on a wondrous adventure. Hannah Waddingham stars in a musical extravaganza holiday special, filmed at the London Coliseum. Singing iconic Christmas classics to a rapturous crowd, Waddingham is joined by special guests including Leslie Odom Jr., Luke Evans, Sam Ryder, and surprise appearances from her Ted Lasso co-stars. In this original Peanuts special, the beloved character of Franklin Armstrong is given a backstory for the first time. Franklin depends on a notebook containing his grandfather’s advice on friendship. After a few false starts fitting in, Franklin and Charlie Brown work together to make a car to race in the town’s Soap Box Derby.<br>
<br>Zara doesn’t trust the superstar, but could the feelings between him and her mom be real? Find out by watching A Family Affair, which is streaming now on Netflix. Dave Bautista and Chloe Coleman are back for a second My Spy film, where they find themselves in Italy on a school trip. Along with the iconic pair, other big stars like Ken Jeong, Kristen Schaal, Anna Faris and Craig Robinson appear in the movie. These classics are now airing on Apple TV+ as Apple has reached deals to make new seasons, or reboot the franchise entirely, so the older episodes are made available for customers to catch up. Lucy is worried about starting at a new school in the fall, so she decides to start her own instead. However, Lucy soon learns that running a school is easier said than done. The new Peanuts special debuts in time for back-to-school season and pays respect to the important role of teachers in children’s lives. On The Rocks stars Rashida Jones and Bill Murray, in a romantic comedy film directed and written by Sophia Coppola. Jones’ character, Laura, suspects her husband might be having an affair. On the Rocks is a light-hearted and fun caper to find out the truth. The Come From Away musical tells the story of the small town of Gander, who generously opened their doors to more than 7,000 people who found themselves stranded in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. This filmed version of the musical features many original Broadway cast members, and was performed to an audience of 9/11 survivors and front-line workers. Cooper Raiff wrote, produces, directs, and stars in this Sundance award-winning film. In Cha Cha Real Smooth, Andrew is a wayward unemployed young man working as a Bar Mitzvah party starter. He strikes up a friendship with Domino (Dakota Johnson) and her autistic daughter, Lola at one of these parties — beginning a very unconvential love story. Will Smith stars as Peter, a slave who takes it upon himself to flee his captor, escaping his life of cruelty in the hopes of returning to his family. He traverses the dangers of the Louisana swamps as part of his journey to freedom.<br>
<br>It’s tough being a TV writer in the wake of David Chase’s The Sopranos. Put simply, the Bayeux Tapestry of televisual entertainment provided the last word in antiheroes. The late James Gandolfini walked through darkness as Tony Soprano, a violent wiseguy with a soft spot for ducks and a patriarchal family man with a belief in therapy. Even after six seasons, the opening theme was an adrenaline shot, and the divisive finale set a standard for when to just… The shift in perception is widely credited to the arrival of The Sopranos, which completely reinvented the notion of what a TV show could do. But that doesn’t mean everything that came before is primordial slurry. While this list of the greatest TV shows ever is dominated by 21st century programs, there are many shows that deserve credit for laying the groundwork for this current golden age.<br>
<br>Joey King, however, has been in five horror films in her young career, so she clearly has a knack for it. In one of her most recent roles – as Halina Kurc in We Were the Lucky Ones – Joey King once again embodies a person who actually lived and brings their tale to life. Halina Kurc, born in 1917 in Poland, grew up as nazism grew and expanded throughout Germany, and, ultimately, nearly half of Europe. King’s narrative arc, based on the real-life Gypsy Blanchard, is as chilling as it is cautionary. Her change from scared victim to scarred killer is not something every actor could pull off. However, as a sympathetic and slightly terrifying presence throughout the drama King manages to do so. This adaptation of Emile Zola’s French novel is set in Northern England at the country’s first department store, The Paradise. This show comes from Downton’s creator, Julian Fellowes, so it’s a good place to go after you’ve finished with the Crawleys. This series is based on the 2016 novel of the same name that also happens to be authored by Fellowes. This is the story of the Trenchard family, who are part of the nouveau riche in London’s upper class. The family is invited to a ball on the eve of the Battle of Waterloo, but the resulting secrets and turmoil last long after the party has ended. For fans craving to fill the Bridgerton-sized gap in their lives for the next couple of years, dive into this curated list of shows that promise to deliver the same level of romance, drama, and glamor. Historians would likely scoff at the idea of making a series about Lady Jane Grey, who for nine days in the 1500s became Queen of England before being beheaded. But much like Hulu’s prematurely canceled “The Great,” Prime Video’s “My Lady Jane” has no interest in telling a historically accurate tale — or a story confined by the law of nature, for that matter. Many recommendations are for new shows, while others are for under-the-radar releases you might have missed or classics that are about to depart a streaming service at the end of the month. Cyndi Lauper created catchy, chart-topping melodies you couldn’t help but sing over and over again, but even more than that, the artist had a strong influence on multiple generations.<br>
<br>Chiseling them down to a neat top 100 is difficult, so we elected to leave off talk shows, variety shows and sketch comedy, focusing on scripted, episodic dramas, comedies and miniseries. Television is now the dominant medium in basically all of entertainment, to the degree that the only thing separating movies and TV is the screen you’re watching on. Now, if you don’t own a television – or a laptop or a tablet or a phone – you’re basically left out of the cultural conversation completely. No other free streaming service delivers more content to and from more countries worldwide. Use Plex to organize, beautify, and stream your personal collection of movies, TV shows, music, and photos anywhere, on all your devices. What if you could find what to watch next based on ratings and activity from people you know in real life? Now you can search for and add friends, share, comment, and more. “There were seasons worth of storylines and the continuation of HBCU culture with these characters.” Two other films based on characters from Da Ali G Show, Bruno and Ali G Indahouse, were less favorably received by critics. But Baron Cohen unexpectedly revived his Borat character for a 2020 sequel, Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, that scored more highly. Abrams would return to produce a pair of sequels—2013’s Abrams-directed Into Darkness and 2016’s Beyond from director Justin Lin—to diminishing critical and financial returns. The second of the two films, 22 Jump Street, actually scored two points higher than the first, making this one of the few instances of a sequel outshining (slightly) the original film. Both films were also box office hits, though 22 Jump Street outperformed its predecessor financially as well as critically. Though it hasn’t experienced a recent streaming resurgence like Suits, Monk is actually the show that kicked off the USA Network’s decade-plus run of success fueled by breezy, so-called “blue sky” dramas.<br>
<br>Although he is only present in the first act, Akela remains a well-developed character in this modernized version of The Jungle Book. Abigail has already cemented itself as one of the best horror films of 2024. In Abigail, a group of criminals gets hired to kidnap a 12-year-old ballerina who is the daughter of a powerful crime lord. When they reach an isolated mansion, they are instructed to hold the girl for ransom. However, the crew soon discovers that the girl they abducted is actually a ruthless vampire who is hungry for blood, turning the night into a game of survival. On Netflix, season 6 of Cobra Kai premieres July 18 with five new episodes. You can also catch a brand new season of the abstinence dating competition Too Hot To Handle on the platform on July 19. Hopefully those two premieres will make up for the fact that The Acolyte on Disney Plus is ending this week; the season 1 finale will air July 16. Fargo took a Western detour in its fourth season, which focused on the battle between a black mafia leader (Chris Rock) and an ambitious Irish mobster (Jason Schwartzman). Although it ended up being one of the show’s weaker seasons, Olyphant’s performance as the idiosyncratic law enforcement officer Dick Wickware was undoubtedly the highlight.<br>
<br>If you are interested in seeing the real side of The Two Popes, explore the Vatican Museums on a late tour for a more ethereal view of these gorgeous rooms. The Two Popes is where Jonathan Pryce and Anthony Hopkins quite frankly act their socks off as the respective Popes Francis and Benedict. This Netflix-produced film is a great insight into Vatican politics and lifts a lid on these popes’ very different approaches to the job. Securing filming rights in the Vatican is notoriously difficult, so the filmmakers decamped to CineCittà, the main film studio in Italy, to build amazing replicas of the Vatican buildings. The real-life Castel Gandolfo, a former papal summer retreat, is used in the film. Regardless of the authenticity of the film locations, The Two Popes is essential viewing if you want to explore the spiritual side of the city. Stanley Tucci traveling all over Italy sampling different regional cuisines – the Four Pastas in Rome, seafood in Venice, pork in Umbria – is the perfect recipe to inspire your own Italian tour. From the Amalfi Coast to Bologna (often called the food capital of Italy), this series will help you narrow down which part of Italy you should visit based on the food alone, though the stunning scenic shots of each region will sway you, too. It’ll also help you decide which Michelin-starred restaurants are worth the competitive reservation and which of the more casual, locally loved spots you should check out. For the best way to enjoy the Trevi Fountain, take a leaf out of nocturnal Loren’s book. Avoid the day and early evening when the lines of tourists can be disheartening and come in the middle of the night. Stay till last orders at Harry’s Bar (also featured in the film), and then it’s a short meander to an empty(ish) fountain magically illuminated at night.<br>
<br>But it’s Michael (Tosin Cole, Doctor Who) who may be the most pivotal, realizing he can leap through time and space and learning he only has three months to save his fiancée’s life. Created by Andrew “Rapman” Onwubolu, Supacell is a show about superpowers, but not necessarily superheroes, with its fantastic cast offering up a far more realistic and human exploration of now-familiar ideas than anything you’ll find in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And the mystery of why—and how—only Black people seem to be gaining powers builds up to a more powerful punch than an Asgardian god of thunder. YesMovies ranks first on our list for its comprehensive movie and TV series collection across all genres. The interface is user-friendly, allowing you to easily find films by year, actor, genre, or IMDb rating. The site also provides valuable details about your chosen movie or series, such as trailers and ratings. Max and its then-parent company WarnerMedia started exploring a potential Harry Potter TV series a couple of years ago. Under that setup, Ascheim became WarnerMedia’s senior rep in its relationship with Rowling and her representatives, and exploratory conversations for a Max series got underway. Since Warners launched its streaming service, there’s always been a goal to exploit Warners’ biggest franchise for streaming. Warner Bros Discovery CEO David Zaslav, taking the reigns after the merger last year, met with Rowling several times in the UK. He’s even spoken up in support of the author, who has been involved in an ongoing controversy over her comments on transgender issues. Asked about the streaming event about those controversies, Bloys demurred. “Max’s commitment to preserving the integrity of my books is important to me, and I’m looking forward to being part of this new adaptation which will allow for a degree of depth and detail only afforded by a long form television series,” said Rowling in a statement.<br>
<br>Reservation Dogs is a comedy from co-creators and executive producers Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi and features a range of Indigenous screenplay guest writers. Launched by FX on Hulu in 2021, the show follows four Indigenous teenagers in a small community in Oklahoma following the death of their close friend. A coming-of-age story, the show explores the modern Indigenous youth experience. It is a breakthrough in Indigenous representation with its cast and crew and has been recognized and critically acclaimed in its run. Thus far, Reservation Dogs has won The Gotham Award for Breakthrough Series – Short Form, two Independent Spirit Awards, an AFI’s Television Programs of the Year, and a Peabody Award. In the United Kingdom and other countries, these sets of episodes are referred to as a “series”. In Australia, the broadcasting may be different from North American usage. For example, Battlestar Galactica has an original series as well as a remake, both are considered a different series each with their own number of individual seasons. I think that Old School is one of the comedies that will forever remain a classic because of the incredible cast including Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, and Luke Wilson. If you say “You’re my boy Blue!” or “Earmuffs” most people know what movie that is from. It remains unique in following a group of older men putting together a fraternity.<br>
