Television’s format allows for surprisingly complex explorations of characters, sometimes even making us question our own sense of right and wrong by portraying killers as likable or charming. Because TV shows have many episodes, actors can really delve into the disturbed minds of serial killers in a way that movies don’t allow. That’s why some of the most compelling portrayals of serial killers are found in television series.

Games are starting to get creative with frequent player deaths and revivals, even building them into the story. Some games now treat a single death as the permanent end of a playthrough, forcing players to start over from the beginning.

The latest season of Scrubs began by showing that J.D. and Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke) had married, hoping for a happily ever after. However, their marriage didn’t last, and they divorced.

Now that he’s returned to Sacred Heart, J.D. and Elliot are trying to work together again, attempting to be mature co-parents despite the awkwardness.

Not much is known about the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day movie, but Spider-Man, The Punisher, and Hulk are confirmed to appear. There’s a lot of talk that Bruce Banner will change back from his Professor Hulk persona to the more aggressive Savage Hulk, and some sources even suggest we might see him become Grey Hulk. While Hulk fans who didn’t love the Professor Hulk storyline will likely be thrilled, this change could create problems for the character’s overall arc.

Organizations like the Video Game History Foundation are actively working to preserve gaming history, going further than most fans in their efforts. This includes fighting against those who falsely claim copyright ownership of older, lesser-known games to prevent people from enjoying them today. While frustrating, the VGHF has successfully found ways to overcome these obstacles.
