Get Your First Look at Dan Harmon’s Latest Creation, “Krapopolis”

July 25, 2022

dan harmon, first look, fox animation, krapopolis

Community, Rick and Morty, and Harmontown are all proud hallmarks for Dan Harmon that will likely stand the test of a very long time. So, naturally, whatever he’s on to next will be so highly anticipated that there’s probably not even a fully accurate metric for it. Krapopolis, his latest series that will premiere on Fox next year, is no exception even though it feels like we’ve heard about it being in the works for years now.

Krapopolis will follow an attempt by Greek gods to not run one of the world’s first cities into the ground. Both Greek mythology and history point towards plenty of narrative that is ripe for Harmon’s blazing, searing, meta-satirical style. You can see for yourself in this first look, unveiled at SDCC, here.

Here’s Your First Gander at Season 2 of Three Busy Debras

Your favorite trio of Debras, the three busiest ones played by Alyssa Stonoha, Mitra Jouhari, and Sandy Honig, are finally back for season 2. The first season of Three Busy Debras premiered on Adult Swim two years ago right when a certain global pandemic struck.

Their particular brand of absurdist humor, even though it’s satire to the nth degree of the unfortunately real world, is still such an escapist joy that we’ve dearly missed them for however long this time has felt for you (ten years for us, at least).

This second season of Three Busy Debras is due out on April 24th on Adult Swim and will be available to stream the next day on HBO Max. Until then, you can remind yourself what a ridiculous delight Three Busy Debras are with the first official look/clip of season 2 here.

Get Your First Look at S3 of What We Do In The Shadows (as Nandor Tries VR)

One of the most heralded comedies (that is so glaringly absent from the field of this year’s Emmy nominees on a technicality) in recent memory, What We Do In The Shadows is set to return very soon (though not soon enough if you ask us).

The master vampires of Staten Island return with their increasingly mysterious familiar Guillermo for their third season on Thurs. Sept. 2nd on FX (and next day on Hulu). That is indeed weeks away, but at least we have this very first teaser to look at (and just hope that there are more to come like there have been in the past two seasons).

Funny enough, this first look is also a first look for Nandor as he ventures to try a VR headset for the first time. Enjoy this as much as you can over the next month and change.

First Look at Season 5 of The Eric Andre Show (Premiering Oct. 25th)

It has been a minute or two since The Eric Andre Show got to wreak terrific havoc with destroying numerous talk show desks and shocking folks with any one of a cornucopia’s worth of characters from Eric Andre himself. Luckily, this dadaist, absurdist break from reality that The Eric Andre Show offers will be coming relatively soon, right before Halloween in fact on Sun. Oct. 25th on Adult Swim.

There’s no trailer as of yet, but these first few stills from season 5 might give you some of the controlled chaos that Andre dished out for this year. If anything, these new episodes will be a very welcome respite from the election that will be happening not too long after the premiere.

Strap in, shave your head, your ass, and the thin membrane separating your skull from your brain. The Eric Andre Show returns October 25 at midnight on #adultswim @ericandre pic.twitter.com/VSWxlieBZd

Phoebe Waller-Bridge dazzled the world with the first season of groundbreaking Fleabag and we’ve been jonesing for season 2 ever since the season finale.

It’s been a while, but Waller-Bridge was busy doing her other brilliant show, Killing Eve.

Finally, there’s a bit of a glimpse of season 2 and it looks to be the same absolutely riveting dark comedy that Waller-Bridge pulled off so well (maybe even more so).

There is no American premiere date yet, but we’ll definitely keep you posted.

Correction: Amazon premiere date for season 2 is on May 17th according to EW.

Here’s What a Modern Day, TV Version of “Heathers” Looks Like

The original dark cult comedy Heathers hit theaters nearly 30 years ago in 1988.

TV Land has rebooted and adapted Heathers for the small screen and given it a very current day update to the look and feel (the original is very much a product of the 80s FYI). That being said, the tone of dark humor and salty language seems to be quite intact.

See for yourself in the teaser.

Heathers comes to TV Land next year.

Better Things star and co-creator Pamela Adlon has got a lot of buzz built around her series premiering next week.

It’s a constant worry these days if all the reboots and revivals will hold up and translate in 2016.

Cartoon Network’s revival of their hit animated series The Powerpuff Girls just released a preview clip and it seems like it’s going to stay faithful to the fun, offbeat spirit of the original series.

The Powerpuff Girls are set for their return sometime this Spring.
