    Indiewire: Does Muppets Most Wanted Have Oscar "Best Song" Potential?

    The song is called "It Goes Like It Goes" and it may only seem lousy to you because it beat out "Rainbow Connection", but I encourage you to look at it through the Academy's perspective. "Rainbow" is schmaltz for the sake of it, and that kind of a song rarely wins an Oscar. Then you have the...

    Animal and Floyd

    I remember reading somewhere that Floyd is the only member of the EM that Animal will listen to. Why do you think that is? The rest of the band seems pretty rational.

    Weakest Muppet Singers?

    Bunsen had a whole song to himself called "Room In Your Heart" that was cut from Muppet Christmas Carol.

    Weakest Muppet Singers?

    I'm talking about specific characters rather than performers because some character voices have a very limited vocal range. Who do you think is the weakest? And I'll include SS and FR characters as well rather than starting a new thread in those forums. For me, it's Bunsen Honeydew.

    Indiewire: Does Muppets Most Wanted Have Oscar "Best Song" Potential?

    Even if multiple songs from MMW get nominated, "Something So Right" will win. Most Best Song Oscars go to 'pretty' songs, and SSR is the only song that fits that category. My favorite is "Interrogation Song" but I would be psyched if that one even got a nom. Now to go back thirty years, is...

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    I feel like people that say they don't like Black Jesus only say that because they feel they should, not because they actually dislike it. BJ was protested two weeks before it aired and the protests even got news coverage. So that gave the public two weeks to form a biased opinion before they...

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    Though Venture Brothers isn't intrinsically a bad show, there's other shows like it that I enjoy more that fulfill the same purpose, namely Harvey Birdman and Ripping Friends, which I swear is so similar to VB that I thought it was a spinoff.

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    While we're on the subject of Adult Swim, I can't believe we're on page 6 of this thread and I haven't mentioned Squidbillies yet. Bleeding edge Flash graphics, super-annoying voices, and the way the characters are positioned on the scene is akin to a four year old's depth perception. Now as...

    Dad Getting Surgery (Part 3.5)

    So last April, Dad had to have some kidney stones surgically removed. Well, they have returned and this time he is going to have them crushed externally by sound waves until they are small enough to pass. So really it's more of a procedure than an actual surgery, but the reason why I'm so...

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    The overall quality of Rugrats might have waned slightly because of the first movie, but methinks Rugrats didn't officially 'jump the shark' until Rugrats in Paris.

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    Slightly off-topic, but in terms of celebrity chefs, I think Emeril is much more entertaining than Gordon, but for good or bad Gordon is much more gimmick-y, hence why he's more popular.

    "Land of Gorch" Revisited

    Feel free to move this thread if needed. Anyway, I'm speaking of course of the 'Land of Gorch" sketches on the early seasons of Saturday Night Live. I saw my very first Gorch sketch last night and was pretty disappointed. The writing and treatment of the characters were very negative and I...

    Non Sequitur

    Here's a recent exchange that's more perplexing than offensive: I e-mailed Tony Millionaire and asked him where the idea for Drinky Crow came from. His response in full was "My brain."

    Favorite Rankin/Bass Song

    Technically, you weren't cheating. I never said it had to be stop-motion; I was just using it as a qualifier.

    Underrated Episodes

    By which I mean episodes that are considered underwatched or underappreciated. I personally consider "Space Frog Follies" to be pretty underrated.
