Denali is the highest mountain peak in North America and the heart of the Denali National Park and Preserve. The landscape around it is full of forests, glaciers, and kettle lakes. It's pretty spectacular on its own, but capture it in 4K, and you'll start booking your trip to Alaska before the video is over.
There's plenty of crime dramas based in New York City, but this one is going all the way back to 1896.

Starring Luke Evans, Daniel Brühl, and Dakota Fanning, the show is set to premiere January 22, 2018, on TNT.
The opening theme of Stranger Things helped set the tone of the show unlike any other original soundtrack in recent memory. The heavy synths helped anchor viewers right in the 80s setting of the show, dovetailing perfectly with the costuming and set design. Reverb shows you how to get the vintage analog synth sounds that Survive used to create the theme, all on a reasonable budget.

If you do anything for 42 years, you're going to have some ups and downs. Over the 42 seasons of Saturday Night Live, the cast, crew, and writers have brought us skits that became part of the cultural lexicon — and a few seasons where the show probably should have been canceled. But there are a few key parts to making a good skit and Karsten Runquist has identified three of them that go a long way toward making us laugh.
Keep the wheel straight and smash the throttle — driving a car on a top speed run seems pretty straightforward. But it isn't. In 1997, Royal Air Force pilot Andy Green piloted the Thrust SSC into the record books, becoming the first vehicle to break the sound barrier on land. Andy talks about what it takes to drive a car powered by two jet engines across the desert floor at over 763 MPH.
In 1958, the United States launched the first solar-powered satellite, Vanguard 1, into orbit.

Classic cars aren't the only retro artifacts Cuba has been preserving for decades. The capital has been glowing with the fluorescent hue of neon signs since the '40s and '50s.
