This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.
In this video, I highlight a remarkable new show called Common Side Effects. It’s rare for a show to come along and really impress me after just one season. But this show, which debuted on Adult Swim, really raised the bar for just how great adult animation can be. And I highly encourage everyone to check it out for themselves. Enjoy!

In this video, I once again revisit 90s MTV gem, Daria. And this time, I focus on the evolution and (partial) redemption of her younger, super-shallow, super-popular sister, Quinn.
Now, I freely admit that Quinn Morgendorffer was the character I hated most on this show. For the first two seasons, she was insufferable. But towards the end, she went on an interesting arc. And while I won’t say she completely redeemed herself, her evolution is worth exploring. Enjoy!

In this video, I revisit the series finale of Malcolm in the Middle. This groundbreaking sitcom did a lot of things differently over the course of seven seasons. But it had to navigate some unique challenges with the finale. It ended up being messy (literally), but uniquely satisfying.
Also, I started making this video before news came out about a finale/spin-off series. So, please keep that in mind.

In this video, I make the case that, of all the jobs artificial intelligence could replace, CEO should be at the top of that list. In recent years, CEOs in general have generated headlines for all the wrong reasons. With the ongoing advancements in AI, this is one job for which we should be actively trying to remove human flaws.

In this video, I once again highlight one of the best romantic sub-plots I’ve come across in years, courtesy of the Dragon Prince. For seven season, this show has crafted a remarkable fantasy adventure featuring elves, dragons, and magic.
But one of the most compelling parts of this show came from the romance between Callum and Rayla. What started during an assassination attempt on King Harrow turned into a love story that really brought out the best in both characters. And with the conclusion of season 7, that love story feels complete. And it’s definitely worth discussing and celebrating. Enjoy!

In this video, I recount how I had no real desire to give My Adventures With Superman a chance. Having been spoiled by the Bruce Timm cartoons, this show just didn’t seem like it would measure up when I first heard about it.
Then, I gave it a chance.
And I’m so glad I did. This show is an absolute delight. It gives us a sweet, genuine, lovable version of Superman that the world needs right now. Enjoy!

In this video, I discuss the recent news, trends, and previews of Marvel Animation for 2025 and beyond. While 2024 was a banner year with the release of X-Men 97, there have been some major upheavals behind the scene. And having seen similar upheavals in the past, I have some real concerns that I feel are worth discussing.

In this video, I highlight one of the best episodes of Bob’s Burgers, The Plight Before Christmas. It’s not just the best Christmas episode of the series. It’s a textbook example in what makes this show and Christmas episodes, in general, truly special. Enjoy!

This video revisits and celebrates The Critic, one of my favorite shows from the 90s. This brief, but memorable animated series was unique in so many ways. It was even ahead of its time in how it approached modern movies. Even though it ended too soon, it left quite a mark that’s worth exploring.

This video explores why and how Bob’s Burgers became the perfect comfort show. For me personally, it’s become the show I often turn to when I just want to watch something simple, wholesome, and fun. It’s also one of those rare shows that sets itself apart from other animated shows for all the right reasons.
Plus, it has Gene Belcher. What more could you want?
