Time travel continues with arcade games Time Pilot and a holographic time traveling simulation and some scientific theories about time travel.
Over the past ten days, ‘70s and ‘80s rock stars Eddie Money and Ric Ocasek left this world behind, so shazbazzar and JediShua remember their music that continues to live on.
Although we’re all a bit down about losing musical icons like Eddie Money and Ric Ocasek, this morning also features some good news about a specific SuperFriend and some exciting TechnoRetro shows on NBC’s streaming service, a peek at some spooky cereals, terrific (or terrible) autumnal jokes, timely arcade games, informative science lessons, and feedback.
In the NEWS:
- SuperFriend Michael Price receives an Emmy for writing “Mad about the Toy” episode of The Simpsons!
- The Far Side is returning. The time is near.
- Peacock to stream TechnoRetro shows like Battlestar Galactica, Punky Brewster, Saved by the Bell, and A Brave New World.
