Besides the six main characters, Gunther—the barista at Central Perk—appeared in more episodes than anyone else, showing up over 100 times. That’s significantly more than the next most frequent guest star, Jack Geller, who appeared 21 times. However, Gunther was mostly a background character and often wasn’t even credited. He didn’t speak his first line until the 33rd episode (his 24th appearance), in Season 2’s “The One With Phoebe’s Dad.”
1984 was a significant year for film adaptations, with both Dune and Nineteen Eighty-Four hitting theaters. These movies were based on influential books that had a huge impact on how people envisioned the future. Authors Frank Herbert and George Orwell inspired countless writers and helped establish the science fiction genre. Translating these complex novels to the big screen was a challenge, and directors David Lynch and Michael Radford were chosen to bring these stories to life visually. Despite high expectations and years of anticipation from fans, both films ultimately disappointed audiences.
Despite being a compelling villain, the Reverse-Flash hasn’t appeared in comics for five years, and that was the right decision. His retirement was a powerful and definitive conclusion, providing closure for both his story and Barry Allen’s time as the main Flash.

On December 10, 2025, SNEG unexpectedly released a completely revamped version of the classic game, The Temple of Elemental Evil, exciting Dungeons & Dragons fans.

It also marked the first time players could explore the Greyhawk campaign setting, based on the tabletop campaign of the same name originally published by TSR, Inc. in 1985, but using the older 1st edition rules. Now, after over 20 years, the game has returned with all known issues fixed.

Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender faces a common problem with shows featuring young actors: how they’ll age as the series continues. Fans worried about this from the start, and the recent trailer for Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 seems to confirm those concerns. It’s a reminder that even with a lot of effort and care, the natural process of actors growing older can be difficult for long-running live-action shows.
I’ve been using my Xbox Ally X a lot in the evenings for the past couple of weeks. I like to play games like Slay the Spire or Spider-Man: Miles Morales while relaxing in bed with a TV show on in the background.
While Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 took home Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2025, the previous year’s winner was a bit of a surprise: Astro Bot, a single-player action-adventure and platformer.
