Fairfax season 2 preview takes a trip to Flavortown

The quest for social media fame and credibility is never-ending in Prime Video‘s Fairfax. In this adult animated series, four middle-school-aged friends desperately chase the clout that could change their lives and make them popular. Or at least internet famous. And in the first preview scene from Fairfax season 2, it looks like one of the kids may be inching closer to his dreams.

In the clip below, Truman (Jaboukie Young-White) accidentally creates a culinary sensation. Unfortunately for him, he lets it go to his head pretty quickly as he assumes some of the rude mannerisms of Hell’s Kitchen host Gordon Ramsay. But at least Truman gets to meet the self-declared Mayor of Flavortown, Guy Fieri!

The talking pigeons, Quattro (J. B. Smoove) and Glenn (John Leguizamo), also make appearances in this preview. But if we know anything about the show, it’s inevitable that Truman’s newfound success will blow up in his face.

Kevin Bacon in The Bondsman.

Amazon may have been a little late turning in its homework this month, but we're giving everything new on Amazon Prime Video in April 2025 a high grade. The selection of new movies added to the Prime Video library, including last year's Oscar contender Conclave, is impressive.

Prime Video also has a strong lineup of originals in April, including The Bondsman, a new series that features Kevin Bacon as a bounty hunter who sends demons back to Hell for Satan. Meanwhile, Viola Davis is an action president in G20, and that's not a joke. Not since Harrison Ford in Air Force One has one of our nation's fictional leaders had to step up to such a challenge largely by themselves.
