The upcoming continuation of Malcolm in the Middle had me on the fence for a while, but the latest trailer kinda won me over. Had me chuckling to be fair. Seems like an admirable return to form. Coming April 10th on Disney+ & Hulu.
As Look-In finished #OnThisDay in 1994 - they took the opportunity to produce a 2 page spread on the various covers of yesteryear.
#90s
Burgers and chips on a plate, with no buns, always feels a little 80s.
Bit of an obscure find. I think it's some kind of independent studio release. Hoping to see it available in the UK at some point. That, or maybe some VPN magic will make it accessible.
How about a Boombox Lego Kit, Game Boy Jukeboxes, a 3D View-Master Movie (!?) and more news from the retro scene, all packaged up into a digestable, entertaining video format? Join me for the latest edition of Retro Newsround, (12th February 2026.)

Love it! I got my step-dad to play Rastan & Chase HQ in an arcade on holiday (about 1986-ish) so I could hold my tape recorder against the speakers & record the music. Had that tape for years.
My wife only browses & stuff. Breathed new life into her old, janky laptop with Chrome Flex. For her it's like a new machine.
Like that time an angry mob stoved in the windows of a confirmed paediatrician's house.
I can't begin to imagine what scenario would lead to this happening!?
Well stone the crows, somebody's gone and designed K.I.T.T. (Knight Rider) in Lego! - (Lego Ideas site) - Only 166 votes so far (including mine) so worth checking out if it floats your Trans-Am.
Casios have always been pretty sturdy though. Mind you, 43 years might be pushing it a bit.
One person in comments so far has said they still have theirs. Sadly, I never got one with my original Cassette 50. What a swizz!
I'm assuming those aren't on Tubi in the UK? Been keeping an eye out for those. Seen nothing yet.
Indeed. Nobody wants a 2-hour clump of horror.
Feels like I might have "taken one for the team" with this one. 🤭
Lovely. It's pretty quick-fire on the reviewing. TBH I'm surprised it only came out at 36 minutes. 🤭
I actually have my eye on mint, if the decent tech YouTubers are to be believed. Planning to run a version off a USB stick or an external drive to get used to the operating system, and I'm in the process of trying out cross-platform alternatives to Adobe in Windows before eventually moving across.
This is the thing - utter crap, but super nostalgic because it was such a strong memory. I love this cassette, regardless of the content. Going through it all again for this video was really fun.
My next version of Windows will be Linux.
50 Games on 1 cassette for £9.95 in 1983? What's not to like? Plenty, as it turns out. Come with me on an epic journey through Cassette 50 and discover whether it really was as bad as everyone seems to remember. (Calculator watch not included.)
Sweet! I still have my old 8.1 laptop in a cupboard. I have some old hardware that only works on systems earlier than W10, so kept hold of it.
The new He-Man side-scrolling beat-em-up (that's a lot of hyphens) has a release date confirmed and a trailer to announce the date: April 28th 2026. I have my eye on this one, and its Golden Axe style of gameplay. Hopefully a demo too, but we'll see.
Wha!? Are you on Netscape Navigator or something? 🤣
Fyi .. DuckDuckGo over here. Highly recommended.
From the Lego ideas website. Worth a vote imho:

Ah, right. Could have been a bit more tactful, maybe. Reckon the wife and I will get round to watching it at some point. Just caught Small Prophets on the iPlayer a couple of weeks ago. That was so good we watched it through twice!
I haven't got round to watching that yet. What are they preaching about in Episode 2?
I've definitely had many frustrating moments like those over the years where a simple task brick-walls my progress. I think my DK issues there were down to my focus being on the stream and chatting though. Practice went SO well. 🤣
Fabulous
Cadbury's Mini Egg?
Now THAT'S how you do business! 👏
