It seems like only yesterday that we said goodbye to Woody and Buzz for what we thought was the last time. The fourth installment of the franchise was an emotional finale that left us both sobbing and smiling.

Toy Story 4 came out in 2019 we all wiped our tears and said goodbye but we should have said ‘see you later’ because …. Toy Story 5 is officially on its way! Tim Allen spilled the beans on Twitter:

Few franchises have stopped and started again as many times as Pixar’s iconic Toy Story. With a 10-year gap between the second and third movies followed by another nine years before the fourth installment, fans have thought the award-winning animated series was over more than once, only to be pleasantly surprised with a new movie each time.

This latest round of excitement starts with a simple question: what will happen next?

After all, Toy Story 4 left everyone’s favorite toys on a heart-wrenching bittersweet note as Woody rode off into the sunset with Bo Peep and her sheep. Fans around the world are wondering how Woody’s relationship with Bo Peep will develop, whether or not he’ll ever return home to Andy’s other toys, and if we’ll get to meet any new characters in this next chapter.

Toy Story has been a family favorite for decades now and its legacy continues because each movie adds something new while preserving what makes us love the characters so much. As always, Pixar has remained tight-lipped about their upcoming projects so at this point all we can do is speculate about what could be in store for us when Toy Story 5 hits theaters. One thing is certain though—it’s sure to be an exciting ride!

Disney Pixar is on a roll this year and early next with all of the new movies they have coming out!

The 10 Most Popular TV Shows to Watch Before Bed

If you’re like half of the population of Americans, watching television before bed is a part of your nighttime routine. Sleep experts at Bestmattress-brand conducted a survey in which they found that 60% of Americans watch TV before bed. Of that, over 50% of the participants watch TV 5-7 days per week before hitting the hay. The research shows that 50.9% of Americans start watching TV between 9 pm and 11 pm. 42% stop watching TV between 11 pm and 1 am.

A spokesperson from the mattress brand commented: “It’s common for us to want to enjoy our favorite TV shows before bed, however too much artificial light, especially right before we think we might try to fall asleep, can increase our alertness and impair our ability to fall asleep naturally.”

They advised, “So, if you are wanting to watch TV before bed it is recommended to switch it off 30 minutes before you are about to sleep so as to allow your mind to prepare for a good night’s sleep.”

There is a wide range of shows that Americans fall asleep to, but below are the top 10 shows that respondents favor:

  • 10. Baseball - 10%

    Sports are easy to watch and are (generally) relaxing for viewers and can be put on in the background while falling asleep, making it a good choice for sports enthusiasts. Baseball’s slower pace (as compared to football, basketball and hockey) makes it easier to fall asleep to.

  • 9. Modern Family – 10.1%

    Modern Family is a show about three related modern-day families from California who try to deal with their kids, quirky spouses and jobs in their own unique ways, often falling into hilarious situations.

  • 7. The Big Bang Theory - 11.4%

    The Big Bang Theory is a comedy about brilliant physicists, Leonard and Sheldon and their friends, who are the kind of “beautiful minds” that understand how the universe works.

The witty comedy intertwined with heartfelt touching moments provided an enjoyable viewing experience that can be watched again and again.

  • 6. Saturday Night Live – 14.9%

    Saturday Night Live (SNL) has been a staple of American night-time TV since its inception in the ’70s. The premise of SNL is actors, comedians and artists get together to perform short, hilarious skits on current, intelligent and at times, ridiculous topics. SNL is the longest-running sketch comedy show in America and therefore may act as a comfort show with an element of re-watchability that makes it easy for many to fall asleep too.

  • 5. The Simpsons – 13.1%

  • 4. Football – 13.5%

    As the most popular sport in America, it is understandable that many Americans enjoy falling asleep to games, highlights, replays and other football-related shows. Sports provide comfortable watching that requires little interaction and engagement, which makes for a relaxing viewer experience that could help some fall asleep at night.

  • 3. Bob’s Burgers – 16.7%

    Bobs Burgers follows restaurateur, Bob Belcher, who deals with various situations while running his dream restaurant with the help of his uptight wife and their three underachieving kids.

  • 2. American Dad! – 17.1%

  • 1. Family Guy – 20.2%

    Family Guy, an animated sitcom also created by Seth MacFarlane, hits the #1 spot as the most popular show. The series has won 9 Emmys and is in its 21st season. The show follows no linear storyline and so can be watched in any order without the viewer feeling lost. The show follows the adventures of the Griffin family with endearingly ignorant Peter, housewife Lois and their three kids. Meg, the eldest child, is a social outcast, teenage Chris is awkward and clueless when it comes to the opposite sex and Stewie is their genius baby who is bent on killing his mother and destroying the world. To top it off, they have a talking dog, Brian, who keeps Stewie in check while sipping martinis and sorting through his own life issues. The light-hearted comedy is what makes it a perfect choice to fall asleep to.
