Today marks 18 years since the final episode of Codename: Kids Next Door aired on January 21, 2008. Unlike previous episodes, this special jumped forward in time, showing the characters as adults reflecting on their childhood adventures. It hinted that their battle against adults would never truly end, but sadly, fans never got to see how that future conflict would unfold.
Fans can soon revisit Bikini Bottom! Season 15 of SpongeBob SquarePants is coming to Paramount+ on January 21st. The new season originally aired on Nickelodeon over a year ago and features SpongeBob, Patrick, Sandy, Mr. Krabs, Plankton, and Squidward embarking on even more underwater adventures. Since its debut in July 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has been the most-watched animated series, and Season 15 continues the hilarious misadventures we all love.
As reported by Deadline, Max Parker will form part of the series, playing the part of Heimdall.
As a lifelong Trek fan, I always find it a little frustrating how much flak the newer shows – what some call “Nu-Trek” – get for making changes, especially when those changes could actually enrich the overall story. I mean, why not have Odo’s return to the Dominion eventually lead to something cool like a Klingon/Jem’Hadar hybrid? It’s a neat idea! And it’s good they’ve confirmed things like Harry Kim becoming an admiral – a little payoff for long-time viewers. But honestly, not every change feels necessary. The one in the first episodes of Starfleet Academy felt a bit…much. A random extra revealed the Cheron – those striking black and white aliens from the original TOS episode “Let That Be Your Last Battlefield” – are still around centuries later. I get why some fans might find that hard to swallow.
While Square Enix is famous for hits like Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, they also have a number of lesser-known, and sadly, forgotten games. Among these are true gems – titles so good it’s a shame the company hasn’t revisited them. One game, in particular, deserves more attention, as it actually laid the groundwork for a popular JRPG that players are currently loving.
We didn’t include the people who briefly appeared as extras in the Field of Dreams scene at Fenway Park, either. To be counted, someone had to actually have a line of dialogue. Plus, spotting them in that scene is incredibly difficult – you’d need exceptional eyesight!
Being down in the underworld with Loki, we were getting updates from Chopper and immediately wanted to jump into the action! Just as everything was about to explode into a massive battle, the story took a pause to show us Harald’s life. It was a really heartbreaking journey, detailing everything he tried to do to create a brighter future, and how it all tragically fell apart. But right at the end of his story, Imu dropped a huge bombshell – seriously, one of the biggest mysteries in One Piece yet!
Recently, the price of physical copies of the Nintendo DS game Cory in the House has dramatically increased. Sealed copies are now selling for as much as $500, and even copies with the original box and manual (complete in box) are going for between $200 and $300. This isn’t an isolated incident – dozens of sales have been confirmed on eBay in just the past few days. Previously, the game was considered low quality and sold for only $5 to $12.
Okay, folks, get ready! Apple TV+ is bringing back one of their strongest shows, For All Mankind, and I just got a look at the trailer for season five, hitting the streamer on March 27th. What’s really exciting is the show is really leaning into the Mars colonization aspect of its alternate history timeline. We’re talking full-on life on the red planet, and the trailer hints at some serious drama and challenges as humanity tries to build a life there. It looks fantastic!
The show Arrow almost spawned a spin-off series, with ideas for its story introduced in Season 8. Sadly, despite having a lot of potential, the spin-off never happened, which disappointed many fans. Considering the direction the Arrow universe took after the original series ended, it’s understandable why the project didn’t move forward, even though a promising pilot episode was filmed.
