Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal, the dark and violent animated series that has thus far followed the Neanderthal Spear and dinosaur Fang across two seasons of adventures, is finally back for a third season on Adult Swim after nearly four years. And while I don't necessarily think it's better than ever, having seen the entire new season for myself, I would argue that it's certainly as good as it's ever been – which is very, very good.
Given Tartakovsky's history, it's not exactly shocking that the show is as good as it is. He's had a storied career and is best known for different things to different people, depending on how old you are. He's the creator of legendary Cartoon Network shows Dexter's Laboratory and Samurai Jack, helmed the original Star Wars: Clone Wars animated series, and directed several of the Hotel Transylvania movies. And, of course, Primal.
