‘Adventure Beast’
Netflix is embarking on a journey where other wildlife shows are too polite to go in its new adult animated comedy Adventure Beast. The 12-episode series centers on real-life humorist and nature lover Bradley Trevor Greive, who voices an animated version of himself. Together with his team of experts – “his fearless Junior Field Assistant and favorite niece, Bonnie, and his fearful-of-absolutely-everything Senior Field Assistant, Dietrich” – BTG travels the globe studying and rescuing animals, often putting himself in danger as he shares “astonishing, sometimes risqué facts” about the creatures he encounters. Adventure Beast arrives on Netflix on Friday, Oct. 22.
‘Locke & Key: Season 2’
Netflix is unlocking the door on Locke & Key Season 2 on Friday! An adaptation of Joe Hill’s best-selling comic book series of the same name, the Netflix original series centers on the Locke siblings, who move into their ancestral home, Keyhouse, in Massachusetts following the gruesome murder of their father. As they adjust to their new surroundings, they discover that the house conceals magical keys that may be connected to their father’s death and that give them various powers and abilities. However, a demon seeking out the keys will stop at nothing to steal them.
From Carlton Cuse and Meredith Averill, Locke & Key stars Jackson Robert Scott as Bode Locke, Connor Jessup as Tyler Locke, Emilia Jones as Kinsey Locke, Darby Stanchfield as Nina Locke, Sherri Saum as Ellie Whedon, Griffin Gluck as Gabe, Laysla De Oliveira as Dodge, Petrice Jones as Scot, and Thomas Mitchell Barnet as Sam Lesser.
‘Roaring Twenties’
Netflix’s reality TV lineup is growing by yet another addition this week. On Friday, the streamer is debuting the first season of its new series Roaring Twenties. Described by the streamer as a “coming-of-age story,” the series follows eight twenty-somethings in Austin, Texas as they set out to find success in life and love, all while learning to navigate the ‘new normal’ of 2020’s America.
