Roseanne Barr Speaks Out, Gets Emotional In First Interview Since Being Fired

By Tanya
A month ago, Roseanne Barr made a comment that ended up costing her everything, and now she is speaking out on how she is handling the changes that have been made to her creation.

However, this meant that hundreds of crew members and fellow castmates lost their jobs. In order to get those jobs back, ABC began

By Tanya
You remember all those Sweet Valley High books that you read 600 times while you were in middle school and high school? Well, someone has found a way to bring them back exactly as you remember them. Yes, you can still buy new versions of the books in most stores, but you've got to admit that there is nothing as satisfying as seeing those original covers with the Wakefield twins we remember from our childhood on the cover.

'Daria' Is Coming Back To MTV With A New Show But I Bet She'd Hate It

By Tanya
She was the star of one of the hit cartoons of the 90s, but if she knew that, she'd probably be really unhappy about it. The cynical teen Daria, was actually a character in Beavis and Butt-Head, but people liked the character so much that she got her own show. It lasted for five seasons on MTV, and while she never really expressed much excitement in her facial expressions, those of us who were maybe feeling a little apathetic ourselves really loved her. MTVHowever, because the year is now 2018 and TV networks have completely run out of ideas, they

By Tanya
The movie To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newar may have a crazy title, but its plot was groundbreaking. It's one of the Patrick Swayze movies that a lot of people forget about, but they shouldn't.

By Tanya
If you didn't read Roald Dahl books as a kid, what were you even doing with your time? There was no better collection of books for children, and the range of themes and plots meant that there was something for everyone. The Witches was probably one of the best though. It was the perfect combination of creepy and fun that made us keep reading long after our parents told us to go to bed. In 1990, they made a movie based on the book, and it was absolutely awesome. While it wasn't a huge box office success, critics loved it

Cardigans Are Apparently Back In Style But The 90s Totally Did It Better

By Tanya
If we are being perfectly honest here, I didn't know cardigans ever really went out of style. Sure, people don't really wear them the same way as they used to, but there's still plenty available. But the thing is, the 90s were a prime time for sweater sets and cardigans. Not only were they available in a million color options, but they had a bunch of different designs and patterns that became popular. It seemed like every person had one either wrapped around their shoulders or wore it as a crop top in the 90s. Now they are apparently "back
