One of the most memorable moments from this season of The Traitors—aside from Michael Rapaport’s unique eating habits—was the intense conversation between Candiace Dillard Bassett and Rob Rausch before the final roundtable. After Candiace discovered Rob had kept quiet about Colton Underwood’s suspicions regarding her, she angrily accused him of being deceitful. She warned him that if she was voted out, she would reveal his involvement. The scene was incredibly dramatic, with close-up shots reminiscent of the show Succession. By the time the roundtable began, it couldn’t quite match the tension of that one-on-one confrontation, and it quickly became clear Candiace was at a significant disadvantage. She was ultimately voted out almost unanimously, while Rob remained safe and unconcerned.

It was so fun seeing those worlds collide with Phineas and Ferb a while back, back in the mid-2010s, and I’m always excited to see what crossovers they come up with next!

Alongside every popular video game series that started in the 1980s, there was a lesser-known, but beloved, game from the same time. Many great arcade games, like Anteater, didn’t get the recognition they deserved, and some major franchises, such as Ultima, aren’t as popular today. Plus, there were fantastic games that never even made it out of Japan.
