McDonald's Long-Awaited Chicken Snack Wraps Fly In to Restaurants Thursday

The clock is ticking -- or maybe it's chicking. McDonald's Snack Wraps, a chicken-tortilla entree that's been missing from US locations of the Golden Arches, returns to the huge fast-food chain on Thursday at 10:30 a.m. local time (if you want to be the first in line). A recent analysis by VegasInsider.com found that the Snack Wrap was by far the most searched for discontinued McDonald's menu item of 2025. On Tuesday, I tried out the very similar chicken snack wraps at Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen

Oh No, ‘Big Bang Theory’ Is Returning to Literally Destroy the Universe

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2026-02-04 05:50:45

You’d think io9—a site run by nerds—would enjoy a sitcom featuring a cast of nerd characters. Like, say, The Big Bang Theory, which ran on CBS for 12 seasons. But you’d be wrong: we loathed the show, especially for its often wrong-headed approach to geeky interests (remember how dirty it did Brian K. Vaughn and Fiona Staples’ wonderful comic Saga?), and we cheered when it finally wrapped up in 2019. But The Big Bang Theory obviously had a crap-ton of fans; you don’t get to 12 seasons and two sp

Blackburn appears to have been motivated almost entirely by concerns about children’s online safety and the rights of country musicians to control their own likenesses; state lawmakers, meanwhile, were affronted by the federal government’s attempt to defang legislation that they had already passed.
