My parents bought me the Muppet versions of The Frog Prince, Hey Cinderella and The Musicians of Bremen Town, likely for the same reason. I watched them all the time when I was a kid, lol.

Ack, thanks for the reminder, MN, Happy Belated Birthday, Richard!

I can't believe this, another Sweathog gone. I loved Kotter back in the '90s on Nick at Nite. Rest in Peace, Ron.

Though keep in mind that people who are satisfied with products don't tend to write reviews (at least not as much as complainers). Though it would often be helpful if they did, lol.

Amen. I have zero tolerance for parents who don't make the effort, trust that whatever's on TV must be OK, and then complain when their kids are ignorant.

I remember one time I was listening to Bein' Green and just out of nowhere started crying at the end. I was not expecting that, lol.

I went to Schnipper's the other day (sort of a lunchtime place). On their blackboard it said for anyone who buys a "Chicken Filet" sandwich they'll donate a dollar to a same sex marriage foundation, lol.

I feel like Hilda and George were sort of cliche show biz caricatures and weren't really going to fit in with what the Muppets eventually became on the show.

I picked Kermit, lol, but yeah The Carpenters' cover is really lovely too. :)

Wow, you know I never thought of that but you're absolutely right. What made the Muppets work is that they weren't treated like "puppets." :)

Well they're technically not supposed to judge others. Of course I won't be naive; I know that's not always why people don't speak out. Frankly I think it's more basic than that. A lot of moderate Christians have no idea what goes on in the more extreme circles. The denominations are all pretty...

I always say blame the parents, hehe.

I agree; to choose something because you've discovered it for yourself and decided it's for you can be a beautiful thing. Unfortunately organized religion tends to attract authoritarian personalities that insist on having power. They'd exist with or without religion; this is just one of their...

Aw thank you. I compliment newsmanfan for being such a supportive, reassuring presence on the forum. :)

Maybe they feel like they're being cornered for something they didn't do? You catch more bees with honey... When people are educated differently on how the Bible is meant to be read. That's a big part of it, though it's not all of it. Some people are just not comfortable with the idea in...

To be fair they're not exactly a priority on the show anymore. :p That's why I only intend to show my kids the old school DVDs, lol.

I would ask what was the point of IAVMMCM period but... ;) But seriously, probably some of the sketches in the first season of Muppet Show which ended kind of awkwardly, hehe.

Never assume that. Kids grow up enjoying older movies and TV shows all the time.

Gummo was the fifth Marx Brother who dropped out of the group and no one had heard of, hehe.

People like that are just blowhards who always have to be convinced they're right. Ironically that is often a requirement for being a Presidential candidate. That and having the most money. Yeah our "election" is quite an amusing thing, lol.
