It was announced that Clifford the Big Red Dog will be back on PBS Kids in 2027! The new show will be produced by 9 Story Media Group, the team behind Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, with animation by Brown Bag Films. Based on Norman Bridwell’s popular book series, the new Clifford will, like the original series from the early 2000s, focus on teaching children important life skills such as problem-solving, making friends, teamwork, and contributing to their communities.

Film has been incredibly influential, so picking just one key moment is tough. However, the Russo Brothers have highlighted a surprising turning point – one most people probably wouldn’t expect.

Someone once pointed out the contrast between Italy and Switzerland. Italy, despite enduring thirty years of war, violence, and turmoil under the Borgias, still managed to foster incredible artistic and cultural achievements like Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. Meanwhile, Switzerland enjoyed five centuries of peace and democratic stability, but its most famous creation is… the cuckoo clock. It’s a reminder that great things can sometimes come from challenging times.

Okay, so LEGO just dropped a new set and I’m super hyped! It’s a Toyota Supra MK4 from The Fast and the Furious, and it’s part of their Speed Champions line. Basically, it’s a brick-built version of the iconic car from the first movie, the one that really kicked off the whole Fast & Furious thing and changed how a lot of us look at cars. It’s awesome to finally have this in LEGO form!

Okay, so I was checking out this new resort design in Albania called The Veil, and it’s seriously cool. It’s being built right into the mountains overlooking the coast, surrounded by thick forests. What’s neat is the architects, Bofill Taller de Arquitectura, are trying to build with the land, not on it. They’re basically designing it like a light, almost invisible layer over the existing landscape, so they aren’t doing a ton of digging and messing up the forest. They’re building around the natural hills and using existing flat spots, which means the woods will stay pretty much as they are. It’s a really thoughtful approach to building in a beautiful, natural area.

This gives collectors a truly authentic, retro feel.
