    Fraggle Rock/Seinfeld parallels

    Along with Fraggle Rock, another one of my favorite TV series is Seinfeld and I was recently thinking that the latter half of both series has something very specific in common. Both series had several episodes that were very Avant Garde and in the opinion of many clashed with the already...

    In Defense of the TV Films

    Bumping. 1) One parallel I found between VMX, MWOO, and LTS is that they were all directed by Kirk Thatcher. Do you think that these three films fall short because of his direction or because of how each film was written? 2) To those who said that Statler, Pops, and Robin were voiced by Jerry...

    Another thing I'm finding is that more often than not it's Oscar bait films that get commentaries (ex. Moonlight, Room).

    E-mail from Larry Mirkin

    I didn't want to footnote the entire reply but there were several inaccuracies in Larry's email. First, there are three Sidebottom episodes. I'm assuming the one he forgot is the one everyone forgets: Sidebottom Blues. Second, the Wander McMooch episode he mentioned is called Home is Where...

    E-mail from Larry Mirkin

    So I recently e-mailed Larry Mirkin (one of the executive producers for FR) and asked him what his favorite/least favorite episodes of the series were. I thought you'd like to see his incredibly detailed and thoughtful reply. "Hi Brian, Thanks for this lovely note. Since you’re such a fan...

    "Put Down the Duckie" cameo question

    Thought of a couple other cameos in the song that I'm not quite clear on: the black man that appears right before Pee-wee Herman and the trumpet player. What are their names?

    D'Snowth's M*A*S*H Reviews

    ***None Like It Hot*** Written by David Isaacs, Ken Levine and Johnny Bonaduce Directed by Tony Mordente During a heat wave, BJ and Hawkeye get a collapsible tub and Radar needs a tonsillectomy. This is an absolute great episode and in both tone and style hearkens back to the show's Golden Age.

    ***The Billfold Syndrome*** Written by Ken Levine and David Isaacs Directed by Alan Alda Charles gives Hawkeye and BJ the silent treatment and Sidney returns to treat a patient suffering from shell shock.

    The Decline of DVD Commentaries

    I know that DVD audio commentaries are an acquired taste for some but I thoroughly enjoy listening to them and I've found that in the past two years, there has been a major decline in the quality of DVD audio commentaries and I was wondering if anyone else has picked up on this. I'll give you...
