Cowboy Bebop first aired internationally April 3 to June 26 in 1998, and two decades later, it's still one of the greats. Compete staffer Eric Van Allen started up a rewatch of the show and inspired all of the Cowboy Bebop fans on Kotaku and Compete's staff to reminisce about this foundational and groundbreaking anime.

The first season of Netflix’s Castlevania animated series was pretty good, if a bit rushed due to a four-episode length. The second season expands with more episodes, more characters, and some amazing fight scenes.

Staff writer Heather Alexandra and senior reporter Mike Fahey sat down to talk about how much they loved the new season.

Three decades ago Marvel Comics debuted one of its most popular anti-heroes, Spider-Man arch-enemy Venom. Now Eddie Brock and his slavering black and white symbiote pal have gotten a solo, Spider-Man free shot at the big screen. Did that turn out to be as bad an idea as it sounds? Chris Person, Ethan Gach and I discuss.

Some movies just make sense. Mandy, starring a near-feral Nicolas Cage, is not one of them. It begins as a glacially-paced exercise in psych-horror scene-setting before abruptly transforming into a drugged-out, neon-drenched revenge flick. Gita Jackson and I sat down to try to make sense of it all.

Season 5 of BoJack Horseman premiered this weekend on Netflix. It’s full of the usual dark humour and animals doing drugs we’ve come to expect from the show, as well as new developments, twists, and a lot of really excellent experimental episodes.

Last week I was on vacation, which was a great time to catch up on some TV. Kotaku's editor-in-chief Stephen recommended The Leftovers to me, an HBO show that finished a three season run last summer. I didn't expect to like the show as much as I did, and now all I want to do is talk about it. Jason Schreier and I sat down to do just that.

Today, Fox announced that Brooklyn Nine-Nine's fifth season will also be its last. As it turns out, many of us at Kotaku watch the show, and we have some thoughts.

Marvel actually did it. The reigning king of planet blockbuster crammed 30-plus superheroes into a single sardine tin of a movie. Did it work, though? Was it any good?

There are a lot of cool sequences in God of War. Let's talk about the coolest one.

Legion returned with its season two premiere last night. I still can't get it out of my head. Neither can Kotaku's Gita Jackson, which is why we decided to sit down and discuss the episode at length.

Black Panther came out last week and it completely blew my mind. I'm joined by Patricia Hernandez and Mike Fahey to talk about the wonder of Wakanda, colonialism, and especially Erik Killmonger.

After a full year of hype, we now have a decent idea of what the Overwatch League looks like in practice. With the season a quarter over - "Stage 1" just ended - Compete staff checks in on how things are going.

Devilman Crybaby joined the Netflix roster last week, and it's one hell of an anime. A reimagining of the 1970s manga, it's a bloody story of love and loss. Staff writer Heather Alexandra and video producer Chris Person sat down to talk about why they love their precious demon boys.

Last week marked the official beginning of Overwatch League, Blizzard's official multi-million dollar pro Overwatch proving ground. To celebrate the occasion, a San Francisco bar called Brewcade played a couple of preseason matches on a big screen.

Thor: Ragnarok came out internationally last week, and Mike Fahey and I had a chance to see it shortly afterward. We sat down to talk about the movie's great jokes, Space Jeff Golblum, and where Ragnarok ranks for us amongst the other Marvel movies.

Stranger Things came back last week with a second season. Gita sat down with Compete's Maddy Myers and Kotaku social media manager Alex Bedder to chat about Ghostbuster Halloween costumes, punk rockers and the perfection that is Joyce Byers.

Last Friday, Blade Runner 2049, the sequel to the iconic cyberpunk film, hit theatres. Staff writers Gita Jackson and Heather Alexandra checked it out this weekend, and, as you might imagine, there's a lot to digest in this nearly three hour film.

On December 15, AOL Instant Messenger will be officially dead. Gita Jackson asked Paul Tamayo and Tim Rogers from Kotaku's video team to share their memories of the messaging service of their youth.

Netflix dropped another season of BoJack Horseman this weekend. As is tradition, I watched all of it all in one go without realising. While Kotaku's managing editor Riley MacLeod, intern Chloe Spencer and I had some problems with the fourth season's execution, we all still love this weird, depressing, hilarious show. So we sat down and talked about it.
