   Disenchantment review: Groening’s new Netflix toon is off to a bloody    
   good start:   
      
   ""The Simpsons meets Game of Thrones" sounds like one of those Netflix ideas    
   generated by bots (a tactic that Netflix has employed in the past). That kind   
   of    
   experiment, as cute as it sounds at first blush, could flop if it stitches two    
   dissimilar series together in messy fashion. But the team behind   
   Disenchantment,    
   the first Matt Groening animated series since Futurama launched in 1999, seems    
   blissfully unaware of hot TV trends—and is all the better for it.   
      
   Groening's first-ever non-network series debuts on Netflix on August 17 as a   
   10-   
   episode "half-season," and we've reviewed seven of those episodes ahead of the    
   formal launch. From what we've seen thus far, Disenchantment wins by    
   establishing friendships between unique, likable characters—and then leading    
   them to their basest urges."
