Netflix is now streaming The Addams Family and The Addams Family 2, the animated movies based on the classic Charles Addams comic strip. Both films have quickly become popular, currently ranking as the No. 3 and No. 4 most-watched movies worldwide. The voice cast includes big names like Oscar Isaac, Charlize Theron, Chloë Grace Moretz, Finn Wolfhard, Nick Kroll, Snoop Dogg, and Bette Midler. The first movie follows the Addams family as they try to maintain their unique lifestyle after moving to a very typical suburban neighborhood. The sequel, The Addams Family 2, features the family on a chaotic road trip across America in their spooky camper.

The new Square Enix game, Paranormasight: The Mermaid’s Curse, currently has a score of 86 on Metacritic. While this probably won’t make it one of the top games of the year, it’s a solid score, especially so early in the year. User reviews seem to confirm that the score is well-earned.

The upcoming broadcast will showcase Nacon’s exciting new games and accessories. Expect announcements and fresh gameplay footage for titles like Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss, The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu, Edge of Memories, and the Endurance Motorsport Series.

So why should you care about this event? Treehouse: Live streams are all about actually playing the games, and they go into much more detail than typical Nintendo Direct presentations.

Viewership numbers from Nielsen and the streaming platform itself show that The ‘Burbs was watched for 712 million minutes between February 9th and 16th, 2026. Including views from its premiere on February 8th and the days following the 16th, the show is quickly approaching a total of one billion minutes watched. Considering each of the eight episodes in the first season averages 40 minutes long, approximately 2.22 million viewers watched the entire season during its first week. While these numbers are impressive, The Best Man: The Final Chapters still holds the record for the most-watched Peacock original premiere week, with 762 million minutes viewed in December 2022.

This moment was the first indication that Willow would reveal she was a lesbian later in the show. It also reintroduced characters from the earlier episode, “The Wish.” In that episode, also from Season 3, Cordelia wished Buffy hadn’t moved to Sunnydale, resulting in a terrifying, vampire-ruled version of the town – including vampire versions of Willow and Xander.

The second season of Paradise is here, finally revealing what lies beyond the bunker! You can start watching right now on Hulu, with the first three episodes available immediately. New episodes will be released each week, culminating in the season finale on March 30th. Season 2 has a total of eight episodes.

Science fiction is hugely popular at the movies, powering major franchises like Marvel, DC, Star Wars, and Avatar. However, most of these films focus on thrilling stories rather than the science behind them. When movies do try to realistically explain fantastical ideas, it can be really captivating, and that’s what happens in this case.

If you’re familiar with notoriously bad video games from the 80s and 90s, you’ve likely heard of LJN. The company had a reputation for making disappointing games, and The Amazing Spider-Man for the Game Boy was a prime example. The story revolves around Spider-Man trying to protect his secret identity from villains while rescuing Mary Jane after she’s been kidnapped. While the game attempts to capture the feel of the Spider-Man comics, it doesn’t quite succeed, and many players were left disappointed with their purchase.

The early 2000s brought significant changes, and Grant Morrison’s optimistic visions didn’t quite come to fruition. This period inspired one of his lesser-known but most compelling works: The Filth. This 12-issue series, illustrated by Chris Weston (who previously collaborated with Morrison on The Invisibles), took a starkly different turn, showcasing Morrison’s most daring and provocative ideas. It fearlessly explored shocking themes, perfectly illustrating the shift from a hopeful future to a grim and unsettling dystopia.
