    Glee - anyone watch it?

    Really? I love BBT. There's the same amount of condescension in classic programs like the Golden Girls. We're just used to seeing it in that context.

    New Muppet Vision Queue Posters

    I'm surprised they don't have one for "UP!" titled "MUP!".

    Muppet Bench?

    Does anyone know about this? It looks pretty good.

    Better TV: Behind the Scenes of Sesame

    I liked it. Abby's growing on me, but she's no Prairie or Zoe.

    Microsoft Pulls Plug on Family Guy

    I like all types of animation comedy from Foster's Home and Invader Zim to Family Guy and South Park. I like that Seth MacFarlane offends all groups equally. I’m a free sprit that way (even with the crude humor). I think FG is funny (most of the time) and it has quite a following regardless...

    Microsoft Pulls Plug on Family Guy

    Microsoft Not Amused by Family Guy, Pulls Plug on Sponsorship Apparently, Microsoft decided to add to its troubles by yanking away its Family Guy ad campaign. Family Guy is largely hit-or-miss in the comedy department, but one thing for certain is that they offend *everyone* equally. It's...

    Glee - anyone watch it?

    It might just be a generational discrepancy here, but HSM didn't create a concept as much as they rode down the paths of Grease and Fame (that was both a movie and a weekly television program). Glee is the next in a progression of musical school concepts, but this time it's tongue-in-cheek...

    Glee - anyone watch it?

    I think so. It's being promoted as such. Most of the actors reportedly have a background in music and theater. Sometimes the vocals just seem a little over-produced, but it's most likely the cast members singing. Of course, they probably have unseen backup too. HSM was very canned and...

    Glee - anyone watch it?

    Actually, the actor that plays Kurt is one of the few male cast members playing close to his age. Kurt / Chris Colfer (19) Finn/ Cory Monteith (27) Puck / Mark Salling (27) Will (the teacher) / Matthew Morrison (31) Puck and Will are my faves. They kind of represent opposites of the...

    Pre-Order Fraggle Rock: The Animated Series

    I'll add a woohoo to that. The cartoon may not have lived up to the quality of the show (what does?), but I can't help but enjoy it anyway. I love me some Fraggles. :coy:

    Hulu>com to Start Charging.

    I think cable and regular television are dying and that everything is going to have a wireless on demand service. That's kind of what Hulu is, but it's free and that's a problem for a lot of other companies like Apple. I am convinced that they don't support Flash on the iphone because Apple...

    Hulu>com to Start Charging.

    This still hasn't been approved and it wouldn't hit until next year. I don't like it either. It's something that I felt would eventually happen so I'd be okay with it as long as the fee was very low. I mean like 2 bucks a month low. More than that would be crazy. However, Sony has a PS3...

    Nickelodeon buys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turltes!

    And there's how we feel about someone else handling our creations. That's a hard thing to do, but I adore 99.9% of Zim.

    The Muppets in Disney Parks Promotions 2010

    California is prettier and less swampy. ;) (Says the Californian) However, maybe Kermit would prefer the swampy nature of Florida.

    Nickelodeon buys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turltes!

    I always thought it was the sexual nature of the program that got John K fired and that the other info was the legal excuse. Was it really a budget issue? Vasquez was naive. Fantastically creative, but unreasonable when it came to marketing the program. I love all the Zim seasons and don't...

    What was the last DVD you bought and why?

    I just picked up "Without You I'm Nothing" after seeing Sandra Bernhard last week. She hits my funny button and scares me all at the same time. :flirt::eek:

    Nickelodeon buys Teenage Mutant Ninja Turltes!

    I believe myself to be a champion of artistic integrity, but don't think John K or Jhonen Vasquez are the best examples to cite when referencing Nickelodeon. John K shouldn't have inked anything with Nick if he wanted to maintain the adult levels in Ren & Stimpy's crude humor. Vasquez should...

    Glee - anyone watch it?

    It's a little easier to be objective now that we're several episodes into the season. There are some pulpy elements and most fans aren't responding to those. I hope they get cleared away for the goodness that is the other 90% of the program. I don't buy that it's anything near the pulp level of...

    Time to break out the hoodies for chilly evenings. :o

    Muppet Peter Pan

    He kind of looked like Bill to me (blue skin, pink nose & glasses), but Bill really is a glorified Anything Muppet so it makes sense that Amy's drawing only resembles Bill. Amy has such a tight grasp on the geometry of Gonzo like no artist has before. This novel has inherent cartoon elements...
