Monsters (American TV Series)
''Monsters'' is an American syndicated horror anthology series which originally ran from 1988 to 1991 and reran on the Sci-Fi Channel during the 1990s. The series grew out of ''Tales from the Darkside'', the previous project by producer Richard P. Rubinstein and his company Laurel Entertainment. Unlike ''Tales'', which sometimes featured stories of science fiction and fantasy, ''Monsters'' was more strictly horror. As the name implies, each episode (with very few exceptions) features a different monster with which the story was concerned, from the animatronic puppet of a fictional children's television program to mutated, weapon-wielding lab rats. Synopsis In the show's self-referencing title sequence, a suburban family of monsters look for something to watch on television before finally settling on ''Monsters'', their favorite show. Each episode is a standalone tale, and feature a variety of monsters from vicious man-eating plants to friendly aliens from outer space. ''Monste ...

3-D Film
3D films are motion pictures made to give an illusion of three-dimensional solidity, usually with the help of special glasses worn by viewers. They have existed in some form since 1915, but had been largely relegated to a niche in the motion picture industry because of the costly hardware and processes required to produce and display a 3D film, and the lack of a standardized format for all segments of the entertainment business. Nonetheless, 3D films were prominently featured in the 1950s in American cinema, and later experienced a worldwide resurgence in the 1980s and 1990s driven by IMAX high-end theaters and Disney-themed venues. 3D films became increasingly successful throughout the 2000s, peaking with the success of 3D presentations of ''Avatar'' in December 2009, after which 3D films again decreased in popularity. Certain directors have also taken more experimental approaches to 3D filmmaking, most notably celebrated auteur Jean-Luc Godard in his film ''Goodbye to Language' ...

ABC Weekend Special
''ABC Weekend Special'' is a weekly 30-minute American television anthology series for children that aired Saturday mornings on ABC from 1977 to 1997, which featured a wide variety of stories that were both live-action and animated. Similar to both ''ABC Afterschool Special'' and ''The ABC Saturday Superstar Movie'', the ''ABC Weekend Special'' differed in that it was primarily aimed at younger viewers following ABC's Saturday-morning cartoon lineup, whereas the ''ABC Afterschool Special'' was known for its somewhat more serious, and often dramatic, storylines dealing with issues concerning a slightly older teen and pre-teen audience. The main focus of ''ABC Weekend Special'' was to encourage children to read. With the debut of the ''ABC Weekend Special'', some of the early ''ABC Afterschool Special''s that had been targeted towards younger viewers were subsequently repackaged and re-run instead as ''ABC Weekend Special''s.
