Queen’s Brian May has taken to social media to hit out at the ongoing badger cull in England, describing it as a “blood bath”.The comments came in light of the way that the English government is working to end the spread of Bovine Tuberculosis (TB) in cattle, which has led to a widespread cull of badgers.Taking to social media, the iconic guitarist revealed that he is currently working on a new documentary in partnership with the BBC, investigating the spread of the disease across UK farms.In the footage, May shared that he had visited a farm in South Wales in a “search for the truth” on whether the root of the issue is predominantly due to badgers spreading Bovine TB to cattle – and whether killing badgers will reduce the spread or not.“And so returning home with another piece of the jigsaw puzzle,” he said, travelling home after visiting the farm. “But at least hats off to Wales for looking for a humane solution.
Hulu’s ‘Futurama’ Reboot Is Brilliant, but Inside Jokes May Alienate Newcomers: TV Review

Aramide Tinubu There appears to be a collective disdain toward reboots in films and television, yet, at this point, Hollywood is locked into the format. Creators are reviving some of their most precious and well-received works, but resurrecting something that meant so much to an audience during a particular moment is no small feat. Of course, there have been successful attempts, such as the TV adaptation of the film “Fargo,” and the revivals of “Twin Peaks” and “Star Trek: The Next Generation.” Other efforts like “Charlie’s Angels” and “Heroes Reborn” should have been left in the vault, especially since streaming has made original series more readily accessible to fans. Still, as much as audiences, fans and critics have begged for more originality, when a reboot is done well, it is a wholly enjoyable viewing experience.
Created by “The Simpsons” mastermind Matt Groening and scribe David X. Cohen, fans were first introduced to “Futurama” in 1999. The series follows the underachieving Philip J. Fry (Billy West), a pizza delivery boy living in New York City on the eve of the new millennium. After a foolish mishap, Fry inadvertently freezes himself for a thousand years, only to be awakened and defrosted on New Year’s Eve 2999, where he must learn the ends and outs of the futuristic city, New New York. Eager to do life differently this time, Fry finds employment at Planet Express Delivery Company, founded by his elderly and distant nephew, Professor Hubert Farnsworth, aka The Professor (voiced by West). Fry also meets a kindred spirit in Bender (John DiMaggio), a crass, alcohol-filled robot who becomes Fry’s best friend and roommate. Despite his often moronic choices and views, Fry falls in love with Leela (Katey Sagal),
