What happens

Disenchantment is an American animated fantasy sitcom created by Matt Groening for Netflix. The series is Groening's first production to appear exclusively on a streaming service; he previously created The Simpsons and Futurama for Fox. The story takes place in the fictitious medieval fantasy kingdom of Dreamland, a fictionalized take on the Middle Ages. The series centers on Bean, a rebellious alcoholic princess, as well as her naïve elf companion Elfo and her destructive "personal demon" Luci. Disenchantment stars the voices of Abbi Jacobson, Eric André, Nat Faxon, John DiMaggio, Tress MacNeille, Matt Berry, David Herman, Maurice LaMarche, Lucy Montgomery, and Billy West. Five batches of 10 episodes were released for a total of 50 episodes. The first part debuted in August 2018, the second in September 2019, the third in January 2021, the fourth in February 2022, and the fifth and final part on September 1, 2023. The series received generally positive reviews. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
