1994: Friends, Donkey Kong Country, and Super Metroid

History of Awesome is an epic 38-part trip
down memory lane - each episode we're covering a new year's most
important, influential, or just-plain-awesome movies, games, TV
shows, comics, and more.


Up next is 1994. The 16-bit era hit its
stride with games like Final Fantasy III (or VI, if you prefer)
and Donkey Kong Country. Friends shook up the TV sitcom scene,
and Pulp Fiction proved that Quentin Tarantino wasn't just a
one-hit wonder.


Other discussion topics include Warcraft, The Lion King, Dumb
& Dumber, Clerks, and The Shawshank Redemption.
