Misadventure Awaits: Checking Out Disenchantment
Published 26 July 2018
Ever since I was young up until recent years, I lived and breathed The Simpsons. I would watch reruns every night and compare events from the episodes to situations in my life from time to time. I also watch Futurama occasionally when I can. Soon there will be a new addition to the family of Matt Groening’s creations. As Futurama takes place in the future (a sci-if), The Simpsons is in the present (a sitcom), and soon I shall observe the latest Medieval fantasy series, Disenchantment.
From what I understand from watching the trailers and other related videos, the show is about Princess Bean who is to be married off for political reasons. She is also an alcoholic due to daddy issues and the fact that her brother is next in line to be king. She and her companions Elfo (an elf) and Luci (her personal demon) go on adventures together. The show takes place in the kingdom of Dreamland. That’s the best description I can give for now.
The fact that the art style is so similar to The Simpsons influences my decision to try this series. The art has so much detail that it would look great on an HD TV like you’re in with the action. I also read Mark Mothersbaugh composed the score. It will be on Netflix, not on FOX like the previously mentioned shows. Good! I am more likely to watch shows on Netflix so I can take my time and watch when I can. I hardly watch FOX on live TV anymore.
I look forward to watching the first 10 episodes of Disenchantment on Netflix starting August 17th.
