The 800th episode of The Simpsons, titled “Irrational Treasure,” will air on Sunday, February 15th. Listen closely, and you’ll hear some well-known voices alongside the usual cast members. Katherine LaNasa and Taylor Dearden, who starred in The Pitt, appear as doctors and nurses. As you may know, Kevin Bacon and Kim Dickens will play a hotel concierge and a doctor—a role similar to one Dickens previously played. Plus, Quinta Brunson from Abbott Elementary lends her voice to a character named Adrienne, and Questlove voices a tour guide. Boyz II Men also provides the musical score for the episode.

Nurse Joy, a well-known and cheerful character from the Pokémon series, appears in the video wearing her classic pink uniform. Similar to the games, you can visit her at the park’s Poké Center to restore your Pokémon’s health. The video shows a glimpse of this process – Nurse Joy carefully places Poké Balls on a table, and then the Pokémon inside appear on a screen with a cute animation. If this is representative of the actual park experience, it looks fantastic!

The first thing that really stood out was the striking color scheme. It immediately grabbed my attention. The trailer opens with a tense scene between Keke Palmer and Will Poulter, both dressed head-to-toe in green – even his hair! While Poulter has worn single-color outfits before, this scene quickly establishes Palmer’s character as powerful, self-assured, and fiercely determined. When he asks what difficulties she might encounter working at a luxury fashion store, she responds with a bold statement: “I just want to take it all home, heat it up and shoot it out my eyes. I just feel like, ‘Give it to me. It’s mine anyway.’” That line perfectly sets the stage for a thrilling and captivating trailer. We’re definitely excited about this one.

After thirty years on the air, the show is ending, having first premiered in 1993. CBS says the decision was simply about money, due to the difficulties facing late-night television, and wasn’t related to how well the show was doing, its content, or anything else happening at Paramount. That’s what they’re claiming, at least.

Lionsgate is moving forward with a sequel to Dirty Dancing, enlisting producers Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson, who also worked on The Hunger Games and Crazy Rich Asians. Kim Rosenstock, known for Dying for Sex, is writing the screenplay. Jennifer Grey, who played Baby in the original film, expressed her excitement about the project, saying she’s been thinking about Baby’s future for years and is thrilled to have found the right team to continue the story. Production is expected to begin later this year.

Although Barbie never says Ken’s full name in the films, it’s officially Kenneth Sean Carson. He was named after the son of the people who created Mattel, Ruth and Elliot Handler.

Let’s quickly recap what this show is about. “Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen” is a spooky horror series that takes place during the week leading up to a wedding. It follows the bride and groom, and the show’s description openly admits something terrible will happen – it’s right there in the title!

According to Tomohisa Yamashita, a central idea in the second season is forgiveness, particularly within families. He believes that while forgiving others is often hard, it’s essential for true happiness. Yamashita hopes the characters Issei and Camille can resolve their issues and find a path forward, and honestly, we’re worried about where their story is headed if they don’t.

Like the previous DC collections Batman: The World and Joker: The World, Supergirl: The World features stories set in different countries. This new book takes Supergirl to locations including Germany, Italy, Brazil, and Japan, as well as several others like Cameroon, France, and the United States. DC Comics explains that each story is unique to its region, showcasing local artistic styles and cultural viewpoints. It’s a great way to rediscover Supergirl before her movie comes out in June.

Here’s a quick synopsis to go along with this clip:
