"Hello, GAF, I am looking for that specific thing on the internet, can you help me find it?" thread.

Good evening, if such thread already exists somewhere, I apologize, but I got this idea a couple of minutes ago that almost every day we are trying to find some TV series that we used to watch but forgot the name of it, the name of that song that we heard in a car this morning, or simply anything that should be available on the internet, which is exactly why I decided to create a thread for such occasion. If you have any tips for improving my first proper thread, please let me know, I aim to make it as efficient as possible by highlighting things that were already found as well as making sure that important requests won't get lost.

I would like to contribute to it's humble beginnings by asking about this TV series I used to watch quite a while ago, it's quite a mundane TV series, there is a young couple, a husband with Mark Zuckerberg's hair and wife that has a long blonde hair, and they are raising an infant child, this TV series is not a sitcom, it was made in the US, presumably between 2005-2009.

If the show was not popular, it might be hard to find it. (especially when one of your keywords is "Mark Zuckerberg's hair" lmao)

Anyone remember a movie where a bunch of drivers in cars are racing towards a destination, maybe for a prize? They mention an infamous route and I believe it was family friendly and shown on network tv. If not, is there a a defacto best movie based on this?

Doesn't appear like it. Let me add a few details:
- Live-action movie where people all seemingly have their own car, probably modified, for racing along an infamous route for a particular grand prize.
- The route could be 66 or some other fictional number, but the route was definitely mentioned as dangerous or well known at least once.
- The scene I remember features a desert setting, and it wasn't all urban driving. Wasn't too comical or violent, but that could just be part of it.
- Had to have appeared on television before, as I didn't watch this in theaters and before streaming

Been looking forever for this oldish gif. I have no idea what keywords should be used to search for it, but here goes nothing. Please excuse me as I haven' t seen it in forever.

- white male teen I think?
- looking incredulous
- makes silly face/smile
- his eyes looks like they're closed throughout the gif
- brings his palms up? or maybe his hand is near his head almost in a facepalm position?
- usually used as a reaction for " what the hell/ what the fuck was that?"

Ok, alpha males of GAF, this one is for you.

A porn photo shoot set (only with the girl), a girl was wearing sneakers, white socks, and light red top. The shoot was in some sort of abandoned ranch house in the desert. I saw it approx. 25 years ago.

There's this old movie that I think was on Turner movie classics at one point... Black & White, the main detail I remember is a minor plot point with them talking about remembering to lock your doors at night or a gypsy \ homeless person will come in and murder you in your sleep. After tragic things happen to the main female character through the course of the film, the end of the movie is her intentionally leaving the door unlocked\open and a homeless person entering the house with the insinuation she committed suicide by hobo.

The movie description brings Need for Speed (2014) to mind, but it's surely too violent to be a match. That might not've been a race across the country so much as a road trip to a race.

I remember seeing this one movie as a kid, and I've failed to learn anything about it since. I don't remember if it was live-action with CGI (or with stop-motion, but doubtful), or all animation.
A mad scientist creates a device which can make anything on TV become real. Its usefulness is demonstrated with a clip of a popcorn commercial, and the popcorn becomes real, which is meant to make the advertising more effective. The main plot follows TV characters who became real (or maybe characters from a toy commercial), and I remember them as being in miniature form, like action figures. Then I think they face off against the guy who created the device.
