Matt Groening's ''Disenchantment'' Coming To Netflix
 

Could be good

Sounds interesting, hope it is good and actually lasts.

Sounds like a less kid-friendly "Adventure Time."

First look (sorta) at the 3 main characters:

Okay, who mutated Bart?

Luci looks seriously adorable though, I love him already.

Princess Bean resembles Emma Swan from Once Upon A Time....

It would be nice if this was actually on TV.

Netflix is on TV.

Let's see if Matt Groening still got it, Simpsons were great, Futurama was great, this has potential if it can be original like his previous two shows when they debuted.

Yeah if you/your family/someone you know doesn't have Netflix by now, then you're just dragging your feet needlessly. Four people can have their own profile for the cost of one subscription.

So its using the same art style as The Simpsons and Futurerama. Also the fact this new series is aim at adults.

Those are some interesting looking backgrounds...

I'm quite excited for this, I hope it's great since it's a different enough setting. The art style is similar because it's Groening but you can't say Futurama and The Simpsons were ever alike even if they were both comedy shows so I expect this to be different. To me Family Guy/American Dad and Cleveland were all too similar.

I'm guessing we'll get 13 episodes in Aug and 13 more in January? That's how Netflix seems to like to split their seasons nowadays to make the wait seems shorter.

Looking great, being an massive Futurama and classic simpsons fan (season 1-7) This looks right up my street. Can't wait.

I don't think it looks too good but I love the Simpsons and Futurama so I'm hyped. The interviews also confirmed that because it's on Netflix there is no censoring, so let's see how it goes, they mentioned not going to extremes. I personally think the way Simpsons/Futurama did violence was already good, I hope it's not worse than that. If it's nudity it'll be people who you wouldn't want to see naked, though I do think Princess Bean should appear nude in that case and have this imperfect body to show even a Princess can't be perfect which is what they're going for. They also mentioned the length of the episodes is going to be different for every single one, pilot is 38 i think and another episode like 276 and it'll be 10 episodes long. They compared it to Rick and Morty and that it'll be single episodes with an overarching plot if you watch them in order but not that important.

The only thing I hate is that the characters have 5 fingers, doesn't fit the Groening style at all.

Looks good to me, I really could use more sword and sorcery type series.

Looks great, more please!

Hi I'm Utrommaniac and I love this little 2-dimensional demon



"I want to get rid of all diseases known to mankind and replace them with worse ones"

:lol:

Also for Elfo


And of course Bean

Looks so good, can't wait, maybe this will help fill the massive hole futurama has left.

Reviews are in, and many of them suggest there's some teething problems (nothing new with prior Groening shows that found their feet later)

"Teething problems"?

Just my fancy word for "it's painful in places":lol:

Any examples of these "painful moments"?

I haven't seen it, I'm just saying the reviewers weren't impressed.

Here is a review of Parts 1-4 of Matt Groening's Disenchantment.

My daughter put me on to watching it. I'm (almost) never laughing hard over anything in the show... but something about it has me really engaged. It's well made and if not laugh out loud hilarious, pretty humorous and surprisingly dark at times. Like a medieval, somewhat less clever but still amusing Rick & Morty that looks like the Simpsons.

Just watched Part 3, show deserves more love. It's a great little world that sadly never hits any big highs but it's so charming. I'll take it over current Simpsons, Family Guy, revived Futurama etc. Of course it could be better but I feel it's an underrated show.

I had no idea this even got renewed for a season 4, so the fact that it comes out in like a week is some pretty sweet news to me.

It didn't, it got renewed for a second season which was divided into two parts just like the first season was divided into two parts. No new orders have been made so it looks like this will be it for the show. Hope it has an ending.

I love this show, I have not heard it has been cancelled, I heard they want to do 6 parts and have an ending in mind.

I wish they would release it on blu-ray...along with certain seasons of the Simpsons and the whole Futurama series.

There is some Simpsons and Futurama blu rays, sadly, the Simpsons ones are of the late teens seasons.

There is a Disenchantment DVD of season 1, but it was a promo release and very hard to find.

Fingers crossed they don't get cancelled and get to finish the story. Like I said, it's one of the couple of shows I can stand to watch at the moment. Woke is making TV unbearable.

Well it ended one cliffhanger and this was the final episode of the original order which was done before the series premiered so it looks like we'll never get more of this show.

Part 4 was mostly boring in the beginning it didn't get better until the second half. Inconsistent show overall but I'll miss it. Elfonand Lucy were great

I think the show needed other stuff to stand out, actual nudity, darker humor, i dunno it never used it's MA rating correctly, it just feels like a less interesting Futurama/Simpsons, we were told wed get a different type of humor since it was for a more adult audience. I men's why didn't we see this gigantic Ogre penis as a joke for example, they thought it was a slide only to realize it was a penis, it didn't need to be an explicit drawing just imply that's what that's green fleshy tube was, i dunno some idea i just thought of. It also needed more episodic episodes to build characters better.

Probably. Though I don't see anything that says Netflix can't renew it anytime now. There's certainly nothing out there I see that says it's definitively not getting renewed.

That was kind of my sense from the first few episodes I watched. That this could benefit from going "full adult," given the kind of tone they were going for.

Disenchantment had 17 issues or so of a tie-in comic prepared for Bapper Books that were never released (except for two in 2019), now Titan Comics will publish them

Not only that but apparently the show was renewed quietly and season 5 should come out this year. And since the seasons are 10 episodes long and it was most likely renewed for a 20 episode order, it basically means season 6 likely exists but that's specuation. Either way at least more loose ends will end up being tied, and it'll be nice to see the cast again. Hope the show is also more consistent.
