A countdown of the best-loved toys and games of the decade, featuring a cast of experts, toymakers and manufacturers, as well as a smattering of famous faces and comedians.

Franchises came more to the fore, with Lego entering into a mega licensing deal with Star Wars, and Power Rangers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles selling merchandise on the back of TV and movies, while oddities like Furbies, Pokémon and Tamagotchi were also hits.

Wonder quickly turns to nightmare when he tries to return to his reality amid the multiverse of lives he could have lived. In this labyrinth of mind-bending realities, he embarks on a harrowing journey to get back to his true family and save them from the most terrifying, unbeatable foe imaginable: himself.
Bob's Burgers
The series follows Bob who runs Bob's Burgers, with the help of his wife and their three kids. Bob has big ideas about burgers, but the rest of the clan falls short on service. Despite the greasy counters and lousy location, the Belchers are determined to make every "Grand Re-Re-Re-opening" a success. Bob's wife, Linda, stands by her man and often does so by bursting into song. Their eldest daughter, 13-year-old Tina has a slight obsession with boys and zombies. Middle child Gene is an aspiring musician with a thirst for life. Louise is the bunny ears-wearing youngest daughter with an off-kilter sense of humor that makes her somewhat of a liability in the kitchen – and with the public.
