    Questions about anything

    Are there any good interviews with the writers of the current Back to the Future comic books? I've tried looking for some but have actually had trouble finding any on Google.

    The "You know what?" thread

    In Back to the Future Part II, in 2015, old Biff figures out that Doc built a time machine.... Wouldn't it have been something if he'd figured out that Marty was the same person as Calvin Klein? Seems like he didn't, I wonder if the 2015 Biff had forgotten about his old enemy. Of course, it can...

    Little things we've noticed

    And at the time that Disney bought the Muppets in 2004, it seems like Steve Whitmire and Eric Jacobson were the only performers who were active with both the Muppets and Sesame Street, with the other performers primarily working for one or the other (Jerry Nelson was about to retire from the...

    Questions about anything

    Most of the Garfield specials were adapted into comic book form, in the size of the old Garfield strip collection books, and I know that Garfield: His 9 Lives was an exception, as the special was based on an existing Garfield book (still would have been cool if they'd made a comic book based on...

    Questions about anything

    Anybody remember seeing an episode of Family Ties where the father shows a magic trick to the family by putting one of the girls in a box and making her disappear, but when he tries to bring her back, she doesn't come back, to which we then see "to be continued"? I recall seeing this episode...

    Jim Henson's Puppetman

    I don't think any of the pilots shown as part of CBS Summer Playhouse made it to series.

    Why are there few kids' shows that feature sawing in half?

    I thought the "sawing people in half" act was done on many kids shows. Though now I'm having trouble thinking of very many. Of what hasn't been mentioned, it was done on Dinosaurs. It was mentioned that it was done in the Looney Tunes short Show Biz Bugs, but it was also attempted in the...

    Bert and Ernie Pumpkin Carving Challenge

    Those international segments were produced back when Steve performed Ernie. Although the voices were dubbed by their international voice actors, the main American performers actually performed the characters live on set, recording their dialogue in English on set.

    Bert and Ernie Pumpkin Carving Challenge

    Here's a new video that was posted this week. In addition to that, it seems like this is a special Bert and Ernie week on Sesame Street's official YouTube channel. This week they've also uploaded one of the international sketches in English, a Bert and Ernie's Great Adventures, and a classic...

    The "You know what?" thread

    Monster University ends with Sully realizing that while Mike isn't scary, he is a good scare leader. This leads to them working at Monsters, Inc. as a scare team, with Mike at the doors, telling Sully how to scare kids. By the events of the first movie, it seems all the scarers have an...

    The Nicktoon Thread

    Back when Palisades Toys had the Ren and Stimpy license, there were plans for a Sven Hoek figure for the canceled series 2. Anybody know if any accessories were announced? One thing I think would have been an awesome accessory for Sven Hoek would have been the Don't Whiz on the Electric Fence...

    Questions about anything

    Do executives/heads of studios/producers have some sort of "spoilers morals" agreement when it comes to rejecting screenplays? I wonder if there's many screenwriters who wanted to include some major twist that they didn't want the public to know until they see it, only for the screenplay to be...

    A Conversation with Frank Oz at MOMI

    I was surprised when I heard that Frank Oz said he had been thinking about NOT writing his autobiography a long time ago. He seems like the kind of person who would want to talk about his past works.

    A Conversation with Frank Oz at MOMI

    In regards to not writing a book on his life, he also said that somewhere a long time ago, saying that he had thought about NOT writing his autobiography. Though when it says he doesn't want to write a book about his life, does that mean he only doesn't want to write about his life, or does...

    Classic Sesame Clips on YouTube

    In the comments, somebody said that the "Ernie and the candy salesman" sketch was included in a video compilation on the official Sesame Street YouTube channel but that it had been deleted. Too bad he didn't say which one (and I didn't think Sesame Workshop would delete those "collection"...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In commercials featuring the Energizer Bunny and various Duracell commercials featuring toys, bunnies, or the Putterman family, the batteries are always visible... But most products that require batteries have a cover over the battery slot. For the commercials it makes sense as they likely want...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I thought it was always really absurd. I feel Newhart is a show that started out normal and became really absurd by the end (comparable to Green Acres).

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Live at the Hollywood Bowl September 8-10, 2017

    Actually the last appearance of the original Thog was in episode 502 of The Muppet Show (where he was a lot bigger... due to trick photography). I wonder if his size was an issue back when Jerry Nelson performed him. The original was one of the biggest Muppets of all time. Though they did use...
