Lose Sleep with These Muppets with People Eyes

I’ll take “Things Nightmares Are Made Of” for $500, Alex. To celebrate the news of ABC’s upcoming The Muppets TV show, I thought it’d be…”fun” isn’t the right word. “Cool?” Ehh, this setup seems a little sweaty.

We couldn’t escape blood suckers if we tried. But once everyone finally latched on to…

Believing is Seeing: ‘The X-Files’ is Officially Coming Back

Amidst rumors earlier this year about a possible X-Files return, first by Fox and later by series creator Chris Carter, the series revival is finally a go! (Breathe, X-Philes, breathe!)
