    Oscar's On-Again/Off-Again Accent

    We all know that Oscar's voice was inspired by a cab driver who drove Caroll to the original SST studio when he first came to New York, but has anyone else besides me noticed that in the earlier seasons of the show, Oscar also seemed to go back and forth in having a sort of Tony Danza-esque New...

    America's Most Wanted

    I know it's been a couple of years now since FOX dumped the show and all... but I'm still going through withdrawals from this show from time to time... Saturday nights have never been the same since it got canned... Lifetime was supposedly picking it up for a new season in 2012, but I never saw...

    A Breakdown of the Series' Timeline

    I've noticed that whenever a series has run for quite a long time, and has gone through different eras and phases, fans generally like to break down said eras to distinguish them from one another, they're usually refered to by precious metals, such as the first era is refered to as "The Gold"...

    We're clearly not getting anywhere here, so I think it's time we actually make this a little more public, and more direct here in getting our message across. To those mentioned in the thread title... you guys don't seem to grasp the message that this isn't a chatroom, this isn't a shout box...

    Biggest Epic Fail of the Week

    http://shine.yahoo.com/photos/disney-princesses-pants-finally-slideshow/ Not only does Yahoo! seem to think these are actual, official redesigns/makeovers of Disney Princesses, but really... it's 2013, and we're still making a big deal out of women wearing pants?

    Foods Made Famous

    http://specials.msn.com/a-list/delish/famous-foods-from-tv-and-film-ss-1 What, Cookie Monster didn't make cookies famous? Bert didn't make oatmeal famous? I swear I heard that they were going to stop making Wensleydale cheese because nobody ate it until Wallace and Gromit came along.

    Cookie Monster's Eye Placement

    I've noticed that Cookie Monster's eyes are never placed exactly center on his head, they've almost always went towards his right, and I've also noticed that a lot of merchandising and illustrations reflect this as well. I'm just wondering why exactly this is? Was the crookedness of his eyes...

    Seriously Movie Industry, WHAT THE FROG?!!

    I was listening to the radio, when I heard this little blurb about the future of the moviegoing experience: Apparently starting soon, if you want to go see a successful, blockbuster epic in theaters, you're going to be charged FIFTY BUCKS A TICKET. Why? Apparently actors like Robert Downey...

    The Laugh Track Thread

    I notice that whenever there's a discussion about certain series on this forum, inevitably, a side discussion about laugh tracks get brought up, so I figured, being the resident laugh track nerd, I'd start a thread for that very subject. So, yeah, laugh tracks - love 'em, hate 'em, television...

    Weird Lego Video Narrated by Kermit

    I found this by accident on YT tonight: And obviously, it's not really Kermit, just some kid doing an impersonation of him. I give the guy A for effort, though otherwise, his impression sounds a little exaggerated.

    Hard to Believe

    It's really hard for me to believe that as of today, as of this very day, I've been an MCer for an entire decade! :eek: Wow, do I feel old. Seems like just yesterday, I was doing my five-year retrospective thread, and now here it is another five years later, and I'm still here. Unbelievable...

    In Need of New Email Service

    Can anybody here recommend a good and reliable web-based email service for me? Preferably something other than Hotmail or Gmail? Ever since Yahoo! upgraded their mail, it's been nothing but headaches - I can't complain too much about the design or layout (surprisingly, the new look doesn't...

    Voice Dubs

    The recent thread about Telly's voice got me to wondering... When BIG BIRD IN CHINA was re-released on VHS and DVD, Brian Meehl's original dialogue for Telly was dubbed with Marty Robinson's voice, and similarly, after Kevin Clash took over Elmo, anytime "We Are All Monsters" was featured on...
