Certain shows, such as Severance, are best enjoyed slowly, with viewers continuing to think about the story between episodes. Popular shows like The White Lotus also benefit from a shared weekly viewing experience. However, other highly engaging shows are designed to be watched all at once.

2026 is set to be a huge year for the new DC Universe, marking its first full year of films and stories. We’re expecting to see individual movies for many DC characters, with release dates announced throughout the next year. Beyond that, we can also anticipate news about future projects, the introduction of new characters and storylines, and important decisions that will define the direction of the franchise. Here are 7 predictions about what we might see in the DCU in 2026.

Shows like Peacemaker, Creature Commandos, and even The Penguin (despite not being part of the DCU) have proven audiences enjoy stories about flawed, and sometimes downright bad, characters just as much as traditional heroes. So, we’re going to explore seven DC villains who would be ideal leads for their own TV series, and discuss what makes them so compelling. Let’s start brainstorming some supervillain shows!

The next anime season will begin with the One Piece: Elbaph Arc. The One Piece anime is taking a break and will return in April with a new season, promising a faster adaptation pace than previous seasons. Fans can get a first look at the Elbaph arc with a new trailer and poster revealed at Jump Festa 2026.

The very first adventure of the First Doctor (William Hartnell) and his companions – Susan Foreman (Carole Ann Ford), Ian Chesterton (William Russell), and Barbara Wright (Jacqueline Hill) – involved encountering a tribe from the Stone Age. The second story, “The Daleks” from 1963, introduced a monster that would become one of the Doctor’s most iconic and enduring foes. Broadcast in seven parts between December 21, 1963, and February 1, 1964, “The Daleks” established the Daleks as the Doctor’s longest-running enemies.

It seems like we’re living in an age where opinions spread quickly on social media. You see short, often out-of-context clips – like people complaining online that the newest Call of Duty game is terrible. It’s funny, because some of those same people apparently didn’t even play the previous one! Still, it’s true that a lot of users are giving the game low ratings.

Every year, 43-year-old comedian Pete Davidson and Michael Che, co-host of Weekend Update, trade jokes with each other—often ones that are pretty risqué. As always, actress Scarlett Johansson ended up being the subject of some of those jokes.

Rose McIver stars in Ghosts as Sam, who has the unique ability to see ghosts. While the show’s supernatural premise naturally fits the cozy feeling of Christmas, Ghosts really stands out for its dedication to creating memorable holiday episodes. It consistently makes Christmas a big event in a way that other comedies just don’t.

This decision feels like a clever, yet risky, move that was bound to happen. After already reviving Robert Downey Jr. in a new role as Doctor Doom, bringing back Evans is a clear attempt to recapture fan excitement and boost interest in Doomsday. Marvel really needs this movie to be a big success, because the Marvel Cinematic Universe hasn’t felt as unstoppable lately.
