Steve Pepoon, who received an Emmy for writing an episode of The Simpsons as a freelancer, worked on other TV comedies like It’s Garry Shandling’s Show, Alf and Roseanne and co-created The Wild Thornberrys, has died. He was 68.

Pepoon has been in treatment for a heart condition called cardiac amyloidosis for the past two years and died unexpectedly May 3 outside his home in Paola, Kansas, his wife, Mary Stephenson, told The Hollywood Reporter.

After moving from his native Kansas to Los Angeles in 1979, Pepoon in late 1985 finally sold his first script, which became an episode of Silver Spoons that aired in January 1986. Fifteen months later, he was hired as a staff writer on Alf, another NBC comedy, and wrote for its final three seasons through 1990.

He kept writing on spec, and one script he did for Fox’s The Simpsons, “Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment,” won him his Emmy,...

Jennifer Aniston would become one of NBC's biggest stars as Rachel Green on "Friends," but the path to fame isn't always smooth. One of her bumps along the way (besides starring in the ridiculous horror comedy "Leprechaun"), was her role in a television adaptation of John Hughes' '80s classic "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." Aniston was perfect for the role of Jeannie, Ferris' sister, taking over from Jennifer Grey, who played that character in the film. Aniston's low, deadpan voice, pouty mouth, and sighs of exasperation perfectly captured Jeannie's sourpuss attitude and frustration with Ferris' antics — namely his uncanny ability to charm everyone he comes across and his nimble ways of wriggling out of trouble. She's a great fit for the role, but the television show itself? Well, it's not so great. It's bizarre, even.

"Ferris Bueller's Day Off," the best John Hughes film ever made, focuses on the...

Conceived by Barbara Pyle and media mogul Ted Turner, Captain Planet was an ecological hero way ahead of his time. The animated series ran for years with some nifty design work by Neal Adams and his Continuity Associates. Each episode featured an adventure and a lesson (of course). It endeared itself to a generation of viewers and remained an enduring figure from the 1990s.

Now, Warner Home Entertainment has released Captain Planet the Complete Franchise, with 41 hours and 31 minutes of environmental goodness. For silly legal reasons, the show has two titles evenly split among its six seasons: Captain Planet and the Planeteers (animated by Dic) and The New Adventures of Captain Planet (animated by Hanna-Barbera) for the final three seasons.

Gaia, the spirit of Earth, was voiced by Whoopi Goldberg, who set the tone and standard for the entire series. She was accompanied by a voice cast that included Margot Kidder...

Jennifer Aniston is still considered a heartthrob by many fans of the Friends sitcom that everybody loves dearly. Despite having successful runs on Friends (1994-2004), Ferris Bueller (1990-1991), and Herman’s Head (1991-1994), Aniston found great success in shooting films as well.

However, her most iconic role was Rachel Green on Marta Kauffman and David Crane’s hit 90s sitcom, Friends. Much like Rachel, the 55-year-old also found it very hard to maintain relationships before finding “the one”.

In the television show, Rachel dated multiple guys while trying to figure out her head regarding the dashing Ross Geller (portrayed by David Schwimmer). The story realizes a happy ending, Ross and Rachel fall in love with each other and probably live happily ever after. As much as Aniston’s fans wanted the same for her in real life, it’s been quite the opposite.

The Flash stands out as fiction’s most famous speedster, having been adapted many times in both animated and live-action formats. Over the decades, various actors have portrayed the iconic character, with some resonating more with audiences than others. Fans on Ranker recently rated all actors who have taken on the Flash roles, including both voice and live-action performances. We’ve compiled a list of the top 10 based on their rankings. Let’s dive in!

10. Kenny Johnston

Kenny Johnston portrayed Barry Allen/The Flash for a brief period, appearing in the 1997 made-for-tv movie Justice League of America. This film, presented as a mockumentary about the titular superheroes, was originally intended as a pilot for a Justice League TV series that never came to fruition. Although his time as the Flash was short, Johnston’s role earned him a spot in the top 10.

Keaton voiced Barry Allen and Wally West across various animated projects,...

The Flash is fiction’s most notable speedster, the character is so iconic that it’s been adapted numerous times both in animated form and live-action projects. Several names carried the mantle of Flash over the last several decades and some have resonated with the audience better than others. Fans gathered on Ranker to rate all actors that were associated with Flash roles in the past, both voice actors and live-action actors and we decided to bring you the 10 best. Let’s go!

10. Kenny Johnston

Kenny Johnston was Flash (Barry Allen) for a relatively short time. He appeared in ‘Justice League of America’ (1997 TV movie). ‘Justice League of America’ is a 1997 made-for-tv movie presented as a mockumentary about the titular superheroes. It was initially intended as a pilot for a ‘Justice League’ TV series, which ultimately did not materialize. Short but sweet, at least he made it to the top...

Life moves pretty fast. It moves a lot slower when you’re watching the painfully terrible intro of the equally terrible Ferris Bueller sitcom.

On paper, you can see why Paramount was eager to turn their 1986 hit teen comedy Ferris Bueller’s Day Off into an at least watchable sitcom centered around the title character. After all, Matthew Broderick’s performance as the devilishly charming delinquent who spends a sick day enjoying all the most iconic sights and sounds of Chicago perfectly captured a cultural moment during director John Hughes’ legendary run of classic teen movies set and shot in and around the Windy City.

However, the turd that Paramount Television squeezed out in 1990 was neither watchable nor iconic — in fact, the ABC show Ferris Bueller was so bad and so unpopular that the network ended up canceling the abomination in the middle of its first season.

Expectations for the TV...

Paramount is moving ahead with its Ferris Bueller spinoff film, Sam and Victor's Day Off.

First reported by the newsletter The InSneider and confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter, the studio has set David Katzenberg to direct Sam and Victor's Day Off. Like Ferris Bueller, the upcoming spinoff will take place over a single day, following the two titular valets who borrow the Ferrari belonging to Cameron Frye's (Alan Ruck) father in John Hughes' original 1986 film. Katzenberg is best known for serving as a director and executive producer on the '80s-set television series, The Goldbergs, and producing Warner Bros.' Stephen King adaptation, It (2017).

Sam and Victor's Day Off, a spinoff of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, lands director David Katzenberg for a unique take on the iconic film. The Ferris Bueller sequel or reboot was deemed less effective by Broderick, leading to a spinoff honoring the original movie's events. Katzenberg's spinoff may offer fresh storytelling perspectives and nods to iconic moments, with potential promise for success.

Sam and Victor’s Day Off, the surprising spinoff movie based on Ferris Bueller's Day Off, has landed a director. First announced in 2022, the spinoff will return to the same day Matthew Broderick and his friends famously took a day off school, but will instead focus on the two parking attendants who absconded with the 1961 Ferrari 250 Gt belonging to Cameron’s (Alan Ruck) father. Set to be produced by Paul Young (Key & Peele) and Cobra Kai creators Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald, the script is also...

When Matt Groening and David X. Cohen's animated sci-fi comedy "Futurama" began to be developed in the late 1990s, it was not treated with the respect one might expect for a follow-up to "The Simpsons." Where Groening's previous cartoon dealt in the classic sitcom setup of a dysfunctional family, "Futurama" was a harder sell, set in the year 3000 but in a world that largely looked like the late '90s. Only with aliens and spaceships.

Fox, the channel on which the show premiered, should have been a good home. After all, "The Simpsons" was an incredible success, at that point entering its 10th year on the network. Mike Judge and Greg Daniels had produced the excellent "King of the Hill" for Fox, giving the channel another animated sitcom hit. Seth McFarlane's "Family Guy" was in development around the same time. All of these shows would become part of Fox's...

Futurama's original intention was to cast Charles Schlatter and Nicole Sullivan as Fry and Leela, but Billy West and Katey Sagal ended up being the perfect fit. Despite confusion surrounding the change in casting, West and Sagal delivered committed and hilariously dedicated performances throughout Futurama's 11 seasons. While it's unclear why the recasting occurred, the decision ultimately paid off, as evidenced by Futurama's enduring success and the return of the show for season 11.

At the start of Futurama's complicated but critically acclaimed run, two of the series' most important characters were quietly recast. Amid a history of cancelations, revivals, and syndication, Futurama has persisted as a favorite among adult animation shows and was awarded with many prominent award nominations. Futurama is attributed to the mind of The Simpsons' star creator Matt Groening, but all of Futurama's working parts can assume responsibility for the series' iconic status and undeniable success.

We’re still a few years away from being able to hop a quick flight into space (after our self-driving car parks itself in the terminal), but if you want to feel like you’re standing on another planet, you should watch the Ferris Bueller TV show. Created for NBC’s lineup in 1990, it’s an odd pop cultural artifact that plays like a window into an alternative universe that somehow exists in our own without melting all physical laws into shoe-ruining mud. In it, Charlie Schlatter is Ferris Bueller, Jennifer Aniston is his pissy sister Jeannie, and Richard Riehle (before he became rich inventing the Jump To Conclusions Mat) is the stuffy Principal Ed Rooney. The natural response is that these are impostors, that you’re somehow being tricked, and that instinctive mindset colors everything that the show does. It would probably be even stranger if the characters felt right while not looking right, but...

During her stint on the 1990 TV adaption of “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” Jennifer Aniston had a brief love affair with a co-star and GQ Editor-in-Chief Jim Nelson is spilling the details.

Jim was a comedy writer’s assistant on the project and during his piece in the May 2014 issue of the men’s fashion magazine, he reveals that the “Friends” gal had a “brief, torrid” relationship with Charlie Schlatter during the show’s 13-episode run.

"To Aniston worshipers, I can offer little dirt," Nelson writes about the actress, who is now engaged to Justin Theroux. "She was lovely, kept to herself on the set, smoldering a bit like her outraged character, 17-year-old Jeannie Bueller. She was a brunette then, with none of Rachel Green's bob or self-possession.”

“GQ can exclusively report that everyone on set thought she was hot, including Schlatter, with whom she had a brief, torrid romance—while playing,...

Washington, Apr.29: Jennifer Aniston was involved in a brief torrid romance with her Ferris Bueller show's co-star Charlie Schlatter in the short-lived 1990 TV adaptation of the cult film 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off.'

Jim Nelson, GQ Editor-in-Chief who was a comedy writer's assistant on that project revealed in a new piece for the May issue of his magazine that the two stars came close during the show's 13-episode run., Us Magazine reported.

Nelson said that Aniston was a lovely girl who kept to herself on the set, and smoldered a bit like her outraged character, the 17-year-old Jeannie Bueller - Schlatter's character Ferris' elder sister.

Nelson also revealed that everyone on the set thought Aniston was hot, including.

Jennifer Aniston was obviously irresistible long before she was one of Hollywood's best Friends. In what basically amounts to an aside in a new essay about his days as a writer's assistant on the TV-sitcom circuit, GQ editor-in-chief Jim Nelson reveals that Aniston had a fling with Charlie Schlatter, who played the titular truant in the short-lived small-screen version of Ferris Bueller's Day Off. The show lasted for one season between 1990 and 1991, and it sounds as if that hookup--when Aniston was barely 21—didn't last for nearly as long. "She was lovely, kept to herself on the set, smoldering a bit like her outraged character, 17-year-old Jeannie...

She was a brunette then, with none of Rachel Green's bob or self-possession," he adds, referring to her character on "Friends."The one bit of gossip he can offer is about her love life. "GQ can...

Bueller? Bueller? Long before Justin Theroux or even Brad Pitt swept Jennifer Aniston off her feet, another man romanced the then-future A-list superstar: Charlie Schlatter, her costar in the short-lived 1990 TV adaptation of the classic John Hughes film Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Called simply Ferris Bueller, the NBC sitcom starred Schlatter in the title role (played memorably in the movie by Matthew Broderick), and a pre-Friends Aniston in the role of his sister, Jeannie (Jennifer Grey in the film). GQ Editor-in-Chief Jim Nelson was a comedy writer's [...]...

By the time you read this, I’ll be winging my way out of Atlanta and back home; but as I write, I am still in the thick of the exciting events of Dragon Con! I’ve had some great fun this weekend, and it’s not even over yet!

I also had some experiences you can only have at Dragon Con—like looking over a food table with Richard Hatch...
