Delicious in Dungeon - Stewed Cabbage/Orcs

“Stewed Cabbage/Orcs” offers an explanation to where Senshi (SungWon Cho) acquires the vegetables he uses for so many of his recipes in an episode that also offers a nice teaching moment about living harmoniously in the natural world (even if that world is in a dungeon full of monsters). After harvesting his latest supply, the party runs into some of Senshi’s clients: a group of orcs on hard times. In this episode as well, we get a lesson about working together (even with people you might not immeadiately like) in order to produce positive results such as the feast even Marcille (Emily Rudd) can’t complain about.

Hazbin Hotel - Overture

What started out as an independent webcomic has now become a full-blown Amazon series. I had a very mixed reaction to the opening episode of the series that centers around Lucifer’s daughter Charlie (Erika Henningsen) and her plan to create a hotel within Hell to redeem sinners allowing them to eventually reach Heaven. I enjoy Charlie, and the look of the episode. The musical numbers were a bit more hit-and-miss for me (although the idea of singing about how glorious Hell is from a certain point of view is humorous).

Masters of the Universe: Revolution - Ascension

The two major threads of “Ascension” focus on Adam (Chris Wood) choosing between the crown and He-Man after the arrival of his uncle Keldor (William Shatner) and Teela (Melissa Benoist) beginning her journey to restore Preternia. An invasion by Skeletor (Mark Hamill) and his Motherboard virus which takes a few new victims before being sent packing thanks in large part to Keldor’s heroics making Adam’s choice easier (albeit also tipping the hand to the audience of the obvious twist far, far too soon).

Percy Jackson and the Olympians - We Find Out the Truth, Sort Of

Suddenly at the entrance to the Underworld, because why bog down your audience in the logical progression of plot or story when randomly jumping ahead is just easier, Percy (Walker Scobell) and his friends descend looking to both free Percy’s mother and retrieve the magical artifact that Percy discovers has been in his backpack for multiple episodes. And, here’s the kicker, Hades (Jay Duplass) doesn’t even want it.
