[Video] Watch David Harbour Accept Critics’ Choice Award for “Stranger Things”!
Netflix’s “Stranger Things” may not have won any Golden Globes this past weekend, but all parties involved have much to celebrate this week. At last night’s Critics’ Choice Awards, “Stranger Things” was nominated for both Best Drama Series and Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, with David Harbour taking home the latter award.
This is Harbour’s first major solo acting award win, having previously won ensemble cast awards for both “Stranger Things” and the 2008 film Revolutionary Road.
“Well, this is very unexpected,” Harbour began his speech, before beautifully, elegantly summing up Chief Hopper’s role in the second season of “Stranger Things.”
Genre all around had a strong presence at the Critics’ Choice Awards this year, with The Shape of Water nabbing Best Picture, Best Director, Best Score and Best Production Design. As if all that wasn’t awesome enough for us genre fans, Get Out won Best Original Screenplay and Best Sci-fi/Horror Film.

You know video game adaptations are hot when even Golden Axe is making the leap to the screen. And indeed it is, with Deadline reporting that the Sega Genesis video game franchise that debuted back in 1989 is getting an animated series at Comedy Central.
Comedy Central has given “Golden Axe” a 10-episode order, Deadline reports today.
The voice cast for the animated series from CBS Studios in association with Sony Pictures Television and Original Film includes Matthew Rhys (The Americans), Danny Pudi (Mythic Quest), Lisa Gilroy (Jury Duty), Liam McIntyre (Spartacus) and Carl Tart (Grand Crew).
“Described as a hilarious and loving homage to Sega’s video game series, Golden Axe follows veteran warriors Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead as they once again battle to save Yuria from the evil giant Death Adder who just won’t seem to stay dead. Fortunately, this time they have the inexperienced and underprepared Hampton Squib on their side.”
Mike McMahan (Star Trek: Lower Decks) and Joe Chandler (American Dad!) will co-write the first episode and executive produce the series, with Chandler serving as showrunner.
The original Golden Axe video game was released in 1989, followed by sequels in 1991, 1992 and 1993. The series got a modern day upgrade with Golden Axe: Beast Rider in 2008.
