In its original broadcast, “Ãon Flux” only aired 21 “episodes”, the first 11 of which were split between a six-segment first season of “Liquid Television” of two minutes and a second of slightly longer five minutes. . It wasn’t until its third season, in 1995, that “Ãon Flux” became a true stand-alone series and began to occupy entire half-hours on MTV.
Needless to say, the MTV landscape has changed dramatically since then, including the launch of the Paramount + streaming service on which âÃon Fluxâ will be published, and a drastic shift away from animated content. Among “Flux” fans, this has given rise to some controversy; back when the reboot was originally announced in 2018, Collider argued that the strengths of the original series were “things that are impossible to translate into live action”. But this new “Ãon Flux” could also boast an untapped potential for denser and longer storytelling, especially since it’s being directed by Jeff Davis, which gave MTV a true hour-long hit with “Teen Wolf”
The announcement of Davis’ new multi-year deal with MTV Studios, which includes showrunning and pilot-directing of “Ãon Flux”, unfortunately did not come with a release date for the reboot. Considering how long it has been announced, it might be a while in development at this point; then again, if Davis just signed on as mastermind, there should still be some creative groundwork to throw away. For now, we’re betting on 2023 or later as a likely window.
