Jim Henson used puppetry to explore the darker corners of fantasy. European folk tales were reinvented with the help of the Muppets. English actor John Hurt starred as the Storyteller, whose enchanting tones would unfurl a new tale each week. Some were sweet. Some were frightening. All are worth a revisit.
The Storyteller: Greek Myths is a spinoff of The Storyteller that will give you more of the live-action and magic of this film. The series dives into the mythology of gorgons and minotaurs with the help of Michael Gambon. It is also available on Prime Video.

The time is right to visit the Yorkshire estate of the Crawley family and their servants.
The social hierarchy in England during the post-Edwardian era is explored in this historical drama. While life is complicated at Downton Abbey, it is just as tense outside of it.

Jack Ryan was the subject of a new screen adaption. John Krasinski is in the version of the Marine vet that Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, and Chris Pine have taken on before.

Jack Ryan knows how to keep its lead while raising the stakes. Jim Halpert is kind of hot right now.

A great Season 1 and a great Season 2. That will do.
The Boys follows a group of people who try to take down people who aren't heroic. Though it is filled with thrills comparable to that of a superhero movie, it is much heavier and more thoughtful as it parodies the feel-good superhero genre.
The Boys is on Amazon Prime.
An animated superhero show that doesn't pull any punches follows the son of the world's mightiest hero. Mark learns over the course of the series that his father might not be what he seems.
Robert Kirkman's comic series is the basis of Invincible. It is not afraid to examine the consequences of being a superhero. The dark side of being a superhero isn't a new theme, but Invincible plumbs new emotional depths and sets itself up for a second season. It has a killer cast. Belen Edwards is an Entertainment Fellow.
Amazon Prime is where you can watch Invincible.
