As a huge movie fan – and a Mario fan, naturally – I noticed the first Super Mario Bros. Movie really went for it with deep cuts and references only the most dedicated players would get. It was packed with fun little Easter eggs for those of us paying close attention, and it looks like this new one is continuing that tradition – which I absolutely love!
The spin-off series Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake recently won a GLAAD Media Award for 2026 in the category of Outstanding Kids & Family Programming – Animated. Some viewers might find this surprising, as the show tackles mature themes and includes both violence and occasional swearing.

Season 4 will be based on the book Gone Tomorrow, set in New York City, and will center around solving a mysterious death in the subway.

The popular children’s show Blue’s Clues first aired on Nickelodeon’s Nick Jr. in 1996 and ran for six seasons, totaling almost 150 episodes.

According to creators Angela Santomero and Traci Paige Johnson, they pitched the idea to Nickelodeon, but it wasn’t picked up. However, this concept eventually led to the creation of Blue’s Room, which premiered in 2004. You can find details about this in a recent interview with the creators.

A new G.I. Joe movie is in the works, but there’s been no news about a separate reboot that fans were really excited about – and it now seems unlikely to happen.
