    R.I.P Jack Klugman, Star of The Odd Couple (April 27, 1922-December 24,2012)

    Yes, all three leads from the original cast of Gypsy are gone now (Jack, Sandra Church, and of course the legendary Ethel Merman). In the production that I was in, our Herbie chose to emulate Jack as much as possible (particularly whenever he had to yell). There's probably not that many people...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    This clip was released DAYS before the episode aired. Nobody knew the song would be featured on the show except for the cast and crew of Glee, the song's licensing company, and Carly Rae Jensen herself. Unless you fit any of those criteria (which I doubt), chalk it up to a lucky guess.

    E-mail from Sugith Varughese

    For those who don't know, Sugith was a writer on Fraggle Rock. I e-mailed him on a whim asking him what his favorite episode was of the ones he wrote and told him that my favorite is Home Is Where The Trash Is. Here's his reply: "Hi Brian Thanks for your email. Fraggle Rock was the best...

    MSTies unite!

    Finally saw Project Moonbase (one of the more fun Season One episodes, but still a snoozer), both Master Ninja episodes (first one was better, but you can say that every franchise except for Madagascar and Shrek), and Magic Voyage of Sinbad (now tied with Jack Frost as wackiest Troika film).

    Your Thoughts: "The Christmas Toy"

    My absolute favorite Muppet Christmas special. My favorite characters are Mew (who is very much the Wendell Porcupine of this special; every time you see him he's entertaining and adorable), Belmont (Muppet builder Ed Christie has said that Belmont was his all-time favorite character to build)...

    Non Sequitur

    So after this incident, I felt like I needed proof that not all comic strip artists are jerks, so for the past three months, I've been corresponding via e-mail with Stephan Pastis (creator of Pearls Before Swine) and you will not find a nicer, friendlier guy in the world!

    Any Night Court fans?

    Bumping this thread not only to let newer members see it but because the creator of the show (Reinhold Weege) has recently passed away. I remember the show would frequently poke fun at Weege's unusual name. Also, since starting this thread, I have discovered a 'Best of Night Court' DVD that is...

    I just ordered another Shout Factory box set: Project Moonbase, both Master Ninja episodes, and Magic Voyage of Sinbad. And hot off the presses, a brand new set is awaiting a release date, but at least we know what episodes will be on it: The Magic Sword, Alien from LA, Danger Death Ray, and...

    RIP Larry Hagman

    I really do feel that way, Marty, and I never thought the day would come when I did. And let me clarify: my above post was not strictly directed to Snowth (although he really does need to learn to let things go).

    RIP Larry Hagman

    Doesn't this statement strike you as a bit petty? It's bad enough that people whine about this to begin with, but by drawing attention to it, you're bringing yourself down to their level. It's the Super Muppet/Baba scandal all over again. They behaved inappropriately and the Mods took care of...

    Recasts for Fraggle Rock movie

    That's a good point, but remember, Kocoumm is the top warrior in the tribe: a snooty attitude comes with the territory.

    That Guy with the Glasses' "Demo Reel" trailer

    Here's something else about the NC discontinuation that I don't like: Doug said that he ended the character in part because he knew he would never remember to take his wedding band off when doing videos. Let me tell you a story: I had a director one time who got hit in his ring finger by a...

    Recasts for Fraggle Rock movie

    Well, technically Belle wasn't a princess for ost of her moie. But I find the "Belle (Reprise)" very relatable because I've lived in a podunk little town my whole life and there's nothing I wouldn't give to to have at least a little adventure. So that just leaves Ariel (if we're starting with...

    What is your least favorite Muppet Movie?

    Well, by the time that they actually get to the 'show' in TM, I was so bored and angry that I forgot about Link's star turn, so thanks for pointing that out. And you made a good point about the Kalidahs; I'm sure it was a good idea on paper but it turned out to be a poor attempt to try and...

    Even though the pilot got canceled, Eaton did work with The Three Stooges in one of their feature films: The Three Stooges in Orbit. She also had a small part in Mary Poppins.

    What is your least favorite Muppet Movie?

    What characters got this luxury besides Uncle Deadly? And how was the Kalidahs scene any different than their heckles on TMS?

    Favorite Disney Movies

    On an artistic level, my favorites are 101 Dalmatians, Sleeping Beauty, Pinpocchio, and Alice in Wonderland. However, Dumbo and The Rescuers affect me on a personal level more than any other film. For fun, here's my least favorites: Pocahontas, The Rescuers Down Under, Chicken Little, Brother...

    What is your least favorite Muppet Movie?

    It just didn't do anything for me as a movie-goer or a Muppet fan. This was going to be the first theatrical Muppet movie in twelve years and nobody could have had higher expectations for the film than I did. I knew the basic plot and that there would be a brand new Muppet introduced, but other...
