Last year, the announcement of a sequel to Jujutsu Kaisen thrilled fans eager to see how creator Gege Akutami would continue Yuji Itadori’s story. However, as the sequel approaches its conclusion without resolving many questions from the original series, it’s becoming apparent that while the sequel itself isn’t bad, it might diminish the impact of the original series’ ending in hindsight.
Streaming services allow viewers to spot details and connections that used to be missed. We see characters develop throughout the series, and individual cases contribute to larger, overarching storylines. While people initially tune in to watch each week’s mystery, they keep watching to follow the characters’ journeys. Over 18 seasons, this approach became the key to Criminal Minds’ success.
The second season of HBO Max’s medical drama, The Pitt, begins 10 months after the first season, taking place on the 4th of July. The doctors are now working with a new head doctor, Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi, and have already faced a number of challenging cases. These include a young girl with a chin injury that raises concerns about abuse, a homeless man needing medical attention for his cast, and the return of Ernest Harden Jr.’s character, Louie, who is again suffering from health problems related to alcohol.

While the new Marvel movie Brand New Day will likely be the biggest Spider-Man news, there are other projects coming soon. In 2026, you can expect the Spider-Noir TV show on Prime Video (which isn’t connected to the main Marvel Cinematic Universe) and the second season of the animated Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man on Disney+. This will be the first time ever that three Spider-Man projects – movies or shows – starring Spider-Man himself all come out in one year (excluding other Marvel films from Sony that don’t feature Spider-Man). It also marks the first time we’ll see both a live-action Spider-Man movie and a TV series released in the same year.
The series, titled 11.22.63 (written as 11.22.63 instead of 11/22/63 like the book), is celebrating its 10th anniversary and still feels incredibly current. Created by J.J. Abrams, known for Star Wars and Lost, the sci-fi show features James Franco as Jake Epping, a divorced English teacher from Maine. Jake is given the opportunity to travel back to the 1960s and try to stop the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. Once in the past, he grows fond of the era, which, predictably, makes his mission more difficult.
With The Simpsons nearing its 800th episode on February 15th, executive producer Matt Selman shared his vision for how the show might eventually end. He promised the finale for Homer, Marge, and the rest of the family wouldn’t follow predictable television storylines.
This creature is a key part of the story in Stranger Things, and considering its importance, you’d expect it to be truly frightening for the final showdown. However, what we actually saw felt weaker and less intimidating. While the finale had impressive visuals and showed the characters working together, when it comes to creating real fear, the creators might have been better off revisiting what they did in Season 2.
There are many reasons why Hank Pym isn’t as popular as some other heroes, but it largely comes down to his past. He’s unfortunately remembered for a time when he abused his wife, the Wasp, and that incident has significantly damaged his reputation. However, it’s easy to overlook just how crucial he is to the history of the Marvel Universe. While many fans prefer the Wasp – and with good reason, as she’s a fantastic character – Pym’s contributions to the team are often forgotten. Marvel hasn’t forgotten, though, and in the 1990s, they published a story dedicated to him, showcasing his importance: The Last Avengers Story, written by Peter David and illustrated by Ariel Olivetti.
A new anime series based on the classic manga Fist of the North Star is coming soon! Celebrating the anime’s 40th anniversary, the show will be available to stream worldwide exclusively on Prime Video. Prime Video has announced this as one of their biggest anime acquisitions of the year.
