Max & the Midknights (Seasons 1–4)

Max & the Midknights (2024) is an animated family series you can watch online on iFILM. Ten-year-old Max lives in the kingdom of Byjovia and wants one thing only: to become a knight. Small problem — the rules say girls don't get to.

So Max ignores the rules. She rounds up a scrappy band of friends, dubs them the Midknights, and drags everyone headfirst into trouble. There are sword-swinging zombies to outwit, a fire-breathing dragon to deal with, and a wicked sorceress squeezing the realm in her grip. The show comes from Lincoln Peirce's bestselling illustrated books — the same author behind Big Nate — with David Skelly directing.

The pacing is quick and the jokes land fast, but it's Max herself who carries it: clever, kind, and stubborn enough to be worth rooting for. A solid pick for family night, especially for kids who love castles, dragons, and a hero who never waits to be told yes. Stream Max & the Midknights online on iFILM.
