Kit Ellis, a former Nintendo PR manager, recently shared his thoughts on the recent Switch 2 leaks. He believes Nintendo is particularly upset about this leak because it revealed details about many upcoming games planned for 2026 and 2027, not just a single title. Ellis suggests this widespread leak could negatively affect Nintendo’s stock price, and expects the company to take stronger measures to prevent future leaks before official announcements.

As a huge fan of Smiling Friends, I loved seeing Adult Swim celebrate April Fool’s Day with that awesome extended stop-motion animation! It really reminded me that even though Charlie and Pim are all about spreading joy, the show isn’t afraid to get pretty dark sometimes. Along with news of when the final episode will air, Cartoon Network also dropped the titles of those last two installments. They’re called “Friend Bot (Version 12589218731809213528796879521)” and “Charlie’s Uncle Dies and Doesn’t Come Back,” and honestly, the promo they released hyping them up is already getting me emotional. You can check it out below – be warned, it’s a bit of a rollercoaster!

From the very beginning, every season of For All Mankind has started with a consistent scene: Margo Madison (Wrenn Schmidt) getting ready for the day. These scenes often include recurring details, like Margo sleeping at work beforehand. However, the Season 5 premiere noticeably left out something: the Stephen King book Margo was reading. After thinking about it, I realized the omission was intentional. The following contains spoilers for the Season 5 premiere of For All Mankind.

Reba McEntire, best known for her popular early 2000s sitcom Reba, recently returned to television with Happy’s Place. The show premiered on NBC in October 2024 and has become a reliable performer for the network, currently ranking as its ninth most-watched program with over 2.8 million viewers as of March 2026. Now in its second season, all 18 episodes of Happy’s Place‘s first season are available for streaming on Netflix, having been added on April 1st. The show features fun reunions with cast members from McEntire’s previous sitcom and stars her as Bobbie, who inherits a tavern in Knoxville, Tennessee, only to find out she must co-own it with a newly discovered half-sister.

Superman isn’t the only hero around anymore, with characters like Batman and Wonder Woman stepping up to challenge the established order. Beyond these main heroes, the Absolute Universe is expanding with new faces. Zatanna is now working alongside Wonder Woman, and the Absolute Batman series is set to reveal a fresh version of Robin. Similarly, Absolute Superman will introduce a new take on a well-known character who once filled Clark Kent’s shoes – a hero fans are sure to enjoy.

This applies to many games from Ubisoft, particularly lately. The company has recently canceled several well-known games, including sequels and spin-offs. One game people have been wondering about is Tom Clancy’s The Division 3. Even though the original game director left and there haven’t been any recent updates, the development team has hinted that the sequel is still being worked on.

Lucasfilm has revealed a new teaser for the upcoming Star Wars series, Maul – Shadow Lord, which will delve into Maul’s story during the Empire’s rule. The teaser showcases the show’s impressive animation, but it’s particularly notable for a powerful mantra Maul chants while fighting Inquisitors: “I master the Force, and the Force serves me.” While not a direct quote from the established Sith Code, the phrase perfectly embodies Sith beliefs and likely represents a part of the larger code, or perhaps an earlier version of it.

While this long-running series hasn’t become hugely popular outside of Japan, many fans think SEGA should give it more attention.

As a comic book fan, the Supergirl trailer did more than just increase my excitement for the movie. Knowing it’s based on Tom King’s Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow and will closely follow that storyline, I was already familiar with the characters and their journey. But the trailer surprised me by making me rethink my initial reaction to the 2021 comic. I believe screenwriter Ana Nogueira’s adaptation has the potential to not only enhance the story, but also give the original comic a fresh, positive perspective.

A memorable post-credits scene in the 2017 film Spider-Man: Homecoming showed Mac Gargan, played by Michael Mando, meeting the Vulture while in prison. This hinted that the character Scorpion would appear in a future Spider-Man movie, but after Far From Home and No Way Home released without him, many fans thought that storyline was dropped. Now, Michael Mando is confirmed to return as Scorpion in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, exciting fans who were hoping to see this character – and seven others – make a comeback.
