Malcolm in the Middle returns with a comforting, unchanged four-episode reunion

The Financial Times reviews a four-episode Malcolm in the Middle revival, Life’s Still Unfair, reuniting the original cast for a nostalgia-soaked, low-stakes comedy that stays faithful to the original formula. Adult Malcolm is now a single father running a food-waste business; Hal and Lois celebrate their 40th anniversary while the family’s chaos remains invitingly familiar, with a small nod to modernity (including a non-binary Kelly). Streaming on Disney+ from April 10, the reboot earns a warm four-star reception for its comforting silliness and solid callbacks to the past.

Buffy Reboot Abandoned Over Executive Pushback

Sarah Michelle Gellar says Hulu canceled the Buffy the Vampire Slayer revival after an executive who openly admitted he wasn’t a fan of the original, derailing a project she and Chloe Zhao had been developing with Ryan Kiera Armstrong as the new Slayer; the decision, reportedly by Disney TV Group President Craig Erwich, left Gellar gutted and fans hopeful for a future revival in Sunnydale.

Marathon's reboot plunges you into a GPU-slick, loot-filled ark

Marathon's reboot playtest blends a sturdy FPS rhythm with a vivid Nvidia-era aesthetic—cybernetic insects, neon hardware, and crumbling iMac-like landscapes—as you pilot cybernetic bodies, loot parts, and extract them from a long-lost interstellar ark while fighting robots and alien lifeforms. You unlock perks for factions like Cyberacme, meet the Oni head AI, and navigate a map that marries high-tech gloss with a decaying world. The experience emphasizes loot, inventory microcosms, and cooldown-based special abilities, all framed by a bold art direction that riffs on today’s AI-driven tech industry; the demo is accessible via Steam for a server slam you can try now.

Fable Reboots as a Reactive Open-World RPG Fueled by Local Reputation

Fable returns after nearly 15 years as a full reboot, launching Autumn 2026 on PS5 and Xbox with a fully open Albion, about 1,000 fully voiced NPCs, and a reputation system where morality is contextual and local; combat uses a flexible 'style weaving' blending melee, ranged and magic, focusing on player choice and consequences rather than a static good/evil meter; key unknowns include the exact date, how closely the story ties to prior games, and whether the canine companion returns.
