• Chief of War is a passion project for Jason Momoa that co-creator credits, a reported $350 million budget, a 93% Rotten Tomatoes score and significant Polynesian representation including ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi dialogue.
• Platonic season 2 has drawn near-universal praise with a 93% Rotten Tomatoes score while the inaugural season retains a perfect 100% rating.
• Both series follow staggered weekly release plans with Chief of War dropping new episodes every Friday through September 19 and Platonic airing new installments each Wednesday until October 1.
