The Hourchive

With so much going on inside and outside of the Hourchive, it's a good week to catch up on comments, consider the future of the Potterverse, and get to know your Hourchivists a little better.

We've got the touch this week as our 1986 Retrospectacular series transforms and rolls out a detailed look back at the beloved animated spectacle of vehicular brutality that broke every six-year-old boy's heart.

Join us at our cabin in the woods as Awesome Spooky Month 2016 comes to a startling conclusion with an analytical look at the complexities of horror movie subgenres, the dynamics of Nintendo's new console, and a surprise live report from somewhere in the ether above the Hourchive river.

Do not attempt to adjust your streaming box. Guest Hourchivist Adam is back for a typically contentious roundtable chat about eerie TV shows and Halloween-themed specials.

​ King Creeper returns to the Hourchive this week, and he's brought with him a Nickstape full of spooky songs to help us carry on our favorite Awesome Spooky Month tradition. We also talk convention etiquette, the 2016 Murmuration Festival, and the best Michael Bay-directed TMNT movie released this year.

Awesome Spooky Month returns! We celebrate by trespassing through notable abandoned sites local and abroad, and former guest Hourchivist Tim's mysterious whereabouts are revealed. Or are they?

You're not dreaming. This week we're dodging flying eggs, hurling shy guys, and turning potions into doors as our Nintendo discussion continues.

Can Apple announcements excite us anymore? Can anything excite us anymore? This week we linger in the Percolator for a jaded jam session on tech culture, recount the days of the week according to the Mickey Mouse Club, and try to figure out when Empress Creeper Ashley should celebrate her birthday.

Up up, down down, left, right, left right...eh, just blow on the cartridge and hit the start button. We're playing with power this week as we recount the early days of Nintendo fandom, tap out our thoughts on the latest iteration of Mario, and go on an epic quest to sort out what makes the Legend of Zelda so legendary.

On the eve of a milestone birthday, we check in with Hourchive youth correspondent Josh to learn about the state of teenage YouTube fame, the diminishing need for driving, and the perils of changing gamer handles.

Somebody shouted "Encore!" so this week we transform the Hourchive into the ultimate tribute band and run through an anthemic set of some of our favorite cover songs.

We're not here to make friends, but we are here to recount the history, tropes, and archetypes of the reality TV era. Stick your finger in our peanut butter and let's get real.

Journey with us along the train tracks as we reflect on Rob Reiner's landmark adaptation of Stephen King's most autobiographical story and try to figure out what makes a great coming of age movie (and what the hell Goofy is).

With the supply of Ecto-Cooler and cookies quickly diminishing, our intrepid team of guest Hourchivists Adam and Ashley attempt help us finish off our recap of the latest season of the Hourchive before the trailer for the Legends of the Hidden Temple movie destroys us all.

Guest Hourchivists Adam and Ashley are back to help us revisit the first half of the most recent season of Hourchive episodes, as well as address new topics like Pokemon Go and a whole bunch of stuff that Drew hates. Thank goodness Ashley brought cookies.
