The New Legends of Monkey (Season 2)
Oct. 4th, 2020 11:27 pmI loved Season 1 (thoughts on episodes 1-3, 4-6, and 7-10) so I was thrilled to discover they made a Season 2!
It's a TV show loosely inspired by Journey to the West, but much more a tribute to the 1980s cult classic Monkey. It also owes a lot to Avatar: The Last Airbender, with its Asian fantasy fusion, and Xena: Warrior Princess, with its cheesy fun adventure. It's an Australian/New Zealand co-production, distributed by Netflix.
Tripitaka, a girl disguised as a monk, is on a quest to find the seven sacred scrolls to defeat the demons who rule the land, accompanied by her friends, the gods Monkey, Pigsy, and Sandy.
Season 2 trailer
( Spoilers )
I hope they make many more seasons.
