    The Jimmy Dean Show: Volume 1 on DVD

    I've seen it reported at Tough Pigs (which is currently hacked so I can't share the link) that a new DVD of The Jimmy Dean Show is coming to DVD. It'll comprise of the first half of the first season and, of course, contain the Rowlf segments. Unfortunately, it's reported that the set is...

    New "Rubber Duckie" performance

    A new version of "Rubber Duckie" for this new season is now online, featuring Daveed Diggs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=6&v=punrsuK62fM I was surprised that this isn't the celebrity montage we were told of. Makes me wonder if there is going to be a celebrity montage of the...

    The site came back within a day... And now it's hacked again. :mad:

    The Muppets and YouTube.com

    I had started wondering if maybe they're just doing multiple versions of the song with different celebrities as opposed to a montage.

    How many Muppet characters are there in MC's top banner?

    There's also Bruno the Trashman, though I feel like I generally only see him when it's Caroll Spinney's birthday.

    The new version of Rubber Duckie that premieres this season is online. I thought it was going to be a celebrity montage, but only one celebrity appears in this.

    Will Looney Tunes ever find success again?

    I don't really want to steer this thread off-topic, but it would be odd if Billy West watched the Hal Smith ones for voice reference, as they are kind of obscure. Not really rare, but there's a lot of better-known Elmer Fudd cartoons that could have been used for reference (A Wild Hare, Slick...

    The "You know what?" thread

    The classic Warner Bros. and MGM cartoons have a history that short of parallels each other. Warner Bros. and MGM animation were both started by Hugh Harman and Rudolph Ising, and their eras are rather obscure while later eras are much better known and were more widely broadcast over the...

    Will Looney Tunes ever find success again?

    I've recently watched some of Mel Blanc's performances as Elmer (Bugs Bunny in King Arthurs Court, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Rabbit), and I feel like Blanc's Elmer sounds more like Hal Smith's Elmer than Arthur Q. Bryan (though I feel his Elmer in The Scarlett Pumpernickle, made years...

    The Son of Zorn thread

    This is the first time I heard of that show. So I guess, like the other networks, that FOX was also trying to cash in on the popularity of The Simpsons with an animated show (I assume that one was intended for adults and shown in prime time as well).

    The "You know what?" thread

    In this commercial advertising the Sega Genesis and Game Gear coming with The Lion King game... ....it says that it's easy to be confused by Sega Genesis or Game Gear, which is why The Lion King game was being sold with both systems. Now that's a good point, but what if a kid asked their...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In Honey I Blew Up the Kid, the kid keeps growing bigger when near electricity or a certain form of electricity, and Wayen Syzlak decides to bring him back to size by using his original shrinking machine. But then who's to say that the electricity won't cause him to continue to grow? And I...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    It was confirmed in this thread that Toys R Us won't be carrying the Minimates. Hopefully that Twitter and Facebook post means that Toys R Us has changed its mind (and the info wasn;t a mistake or something).

    The "You know what?" thread

    I have a few things to say about this commercial for Xfinity (it seems they no longer allow comments. I saw comments before, wanted to comment what I'm about to say there but wasn't logged in and didn't feel like logging in, and just when I was ready to comment I fond that I no longer could...)...

    Video: Pigs in Space “Alien: Look Who's Coming to Dinner”

    Some of Matt's voices sound a little like Bunsen. '80s Robot and his Robin come to mind.

    April Fools: New Muppet Show Online!

    Isn't that proper etiquette/procedure when making an April Fools Joke? Though I have seen my share of April Fools posts where they don't say April Fools at the end of the post. If it's said on April Fools Day, I usually suspect it's a prank, and often the pranks seem obvious enough (and yet...

    The "You know what?" thread

    I think it's a good episode. But quite a few shows seem to have episodes that are often included in lists of the greatest episodes of all time that I can't really see why they're the best. For example, there's the Happy Days episode Richie Fights Back. When I first heard of it, I wanted to...

    Nintendo makes the Switch!

    Really? I've seen a video online that said that Nintendo tends to be the least innovative/powerful with it's systems (Super Nintendo being one of the main exceptions). And I;ve seen this video that states that gamers tend to complain about games not being innovative enough, yet games that...

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

    And in the 1960s, there was another short-lived show on the "baby's thoughts are heard" concept called Happy. I watched both Baby Talk and Baby Bob, and I liked them. When Baby Bob was on the air, it seems everybody I talked to about it either hated it or wasn't aware of it (hardly anybody I...
