Major Character On The Simpsons To Finally Come Out As Gay
One of Springfield's worst kept secrets, apart from Who Shot Mr. Burns?, is the running issue of Waylon Smithers' sexuality. But fear not, after 26 years, 27 seasons, and more questions than a nosey grandmother, Waylon Smithers is officially coming out of the closet!

‘Riverdale’ Recreates the Iconic Milkshake Shot From the Archie Comics
Riverdale, as many already know, is hardly a stranger to fan service. Last season, the CW’s execs and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa graced us with gratuitous shots of the cast in their classic Archiecomics wear, as supplement to an equally gratuitous throwback scene straight out of Jughead’s retro-colored nightmare. The scene, despite lasting only a few minutes, felt phenomenally nostalgic, and each accompanying shot that followed felt nothing short of eye-candy.

'Legion's Finale Has a Confusing Connection to Pokémon — But Is It Super Effective?
It's fair to say that Fox's Legion is a show that most viewers either absolutely love or totally hate. There isn't really any middle ground in this with the show's constantly twisting and turning plot that makes the viewer question just what — and who — is real. Fittingly, the show's debut season ended on an equally confusing note.

The 100 Season 3: Feeling A Little 'Lost'?
Gored polar bears, bald huntsmen and smoke monsters. Before jumping the shark, ABC's Lost was the epitome of water cooler talk. Over six seasons we saw Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Locke, Hurley, Sayid, Jin, Sun (and all the other others) survive on the world's most dangerous holiday resort.

R.I.P Saul Goodman - Who is Cinnabon Gene?
In Breaking Bad's final season, our anti-hero Walter White started his new life as Mr. Lambert in a desolate New Hampshire cabin. What became clear is that the grass isn't always greener on the other side, and ultimately you can't run from your problems. How very moral! The same can be said when Saul Goodman (a.k.a Jimmy McGill) started his new life in Omaha, setting up shop as Gene the Cinnabon manager. Now as his own show Better Call Saul comes into its own, it is becoming increasingly apparent that said grass is far from green at all.

What If the Walking Dead Had Killed...
The centrepiece of AMC's impressive back-catalogue is undoubtedly zombie romp The Walking Dead. Now in its fifth year, the show regularly attracts viewing figures of over 10 million, flourishing in the 18-49 viewership. What keeps us hooked is all the drama of your standardised serial, following the lives of your average American Joe in a zombie apocalypse - you have the ex-cop, the tough guy, the abused housewife (more on her later), and a more diverse cast than Heroes.

Why Composer Blake Neely Is the Arrowverse's True Unsung Hero
The CW's highly successful #Arrowverse is a true superhero juggernaut with four shows — #Arrow, #TheFlash, #Supergirl and #LegendsOfTomorrow — featuring a vast number of characters, each with the capability to cross over with one another. This had never been attempted before, but it has certainly worked out for the best.
