Falling a little closer to Futurama than the Simpsons on the Matt Groening scale, Disenchantment is the new series by the lauded cartoon creator and his first series to debut on Netflix. Following the misadventures of Princess Bean (Abbi Jacobson), her companion Elfo (Nate Faxon) and a demon named Luci (Eric Andre), Bean wants to escape the simple life as the King’s daughter and get into her own scrapes outside the confines of the castle. Netflix are on a great run for animation of late, so hopefully this is the next homerun when Disenchantment premieres August 17th.
