HBO Max’s Close Enough Returns April 7

HBO Max’s Close Enough Returns April 7

, , , , 2

If everything had gone according to plan, the animated comedy Close Enough would have premiered on TBS…in 2017. That was when creator JG Quintel (Regular Show) and his crew put together a reel of random scenes from proposed storylines and presented it to TBS execs, who greenlit the series for production. But for reasons that have never been revealed, the series never moved forward at TBS. It wasn’t until the birth of HBO Max that Close Enough was revived and completed, and it’s treated today as an HBO Max original, even though the first season still has “TBS” on it for some reason.

The good thing about living in the Los Angeles area is being a stone’s throw from some of the best cinematic experiences and exclusive movie festivals in the world.

The festival screens animated features from all over the world, some of which are making their US debuts for the first time.

There have been a lot of Transformers movies by now, but if you ask a certain generation, there is only one that truly matters: the original. Released in 1986, Transformers: The Movie broke the hearts of millions of children with the sudden and abrupt offing of beloved main Autobot Optimus Prime, though that hasn’t prevented them as adults from returning to be re-traumatized over and over. Now you can witness the moment in every horrific detail as Fathom Events teams up with Hasbro to re-release Transformers: The Movie theatrically.

When Adult Swim first took to the airwaves in 2001, Harvey Birdman: Attorney At Law was one of the initial offerings. Only forty shows were made and each one is just eleven minutes long, but the series had staying power huge enough to remain in scattered reruns to this very day. Not only that, Adult Swim produced a return special in 2018, and managed to swing the return of Stephen Colbert as maniacal CEO Phil Ken Sebben (who was now the President).

Just because YouTube largely gave up on a streaming service-type channel (YouTube Red, which Cobra Kai premiered on) doesn’t mean they aren’t still delivering original content. It’s just going, appropriately enough, in their YouTube Originals subsite. And the latest addition is Super Sema, produced by the Nairobi-based children’s edutainment media and technology startup Kukua.
