Netflix Officially Confirms a Release Date for Its 'Arcane' Replacement

Although Western adult animation has never vanished from our collective screens, one can argue that television shows with more narrative sophistication and artistic experimentation than, say, conventional network staples such as Family Guy have slowly but steadily gained a wider mainstream footprint in recent years. By and large, we have major streaming platforms to thank for this trend. Netflix, Prime Video, and HBO Max, in particular, have helped redefine the medium’s boundaries by turning expensive and ambitious risks (Arcane, BoJack Horseman, The Legend of Vox Machina, Creature Commandos) into one of their quieter, but most consistent, programming cornerstones.
