Some of that stuff about Bruno talking reminds me of something that is probably not ironic but got me thinking.
I did not know Bruno was in that episode until images were provided. I don’t know if he just wasn’t in the draft of the script that the wiki used for reference or if they just didn’t...
Yeah, I asked about how they keep hats on heads to the Below the Frame show and they mentioned a variety of methods, while also mentioning that construction worker hats are hard to keep on (that was one I really wondered about, though I didn't specifically mention that in my question). Both...
Didn't expect to see Bruno talk in that one. He sounds different than in Follow That Bird and "Put It in the Trash Can", sounds a little like Thog. I'd like to think Caroll Spinney provided his voice as usual, but Jerry Nelson was on set performing Biff, don't know why they'd suddenly have him...
In real life could the building have fallen apart by hammering just one nail? Biff seems to get the blame, but wouldn’t that have happened anyway? Sully shook his head, trying to warn them against hammering the nail in the spot they did (from the descriptions I thought it was warning, but it...
The Simpson’s episode “Krusty Gets Busted” has the line “if cartoons were meant for adults, they’d put them on in prime time”, which is funny because The Simpson’s was in prime time, but now I’m thinking more about it.
At the time, while there had been prime time animated shows in the 1960s...
maybe it’s not that big a deal, but these days, it seems like most of the main performers have only one regular character.
longtime performers Martin Robinson, David Rudman, Eric Jacobson, and Matt Vogel all still have plenty of characters. Peter Linz has two, Carmen Osbahr has two. But Ryan...
Yeah. It is hard to really develop new characters when the Muppets don’t have a regular series (or a new movie every few years). The Jim Henson Company probably could do new Muppet shows and focus more on new characters, while Disney would focus on a brand and focus more on those known as...
I have also started to wonder if, ignoring Frank Oz's limited availability, it would have been better if Muppets Tonight mainly focused on a fairly small core group of Muppets, if most of it was Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Rizzo, Bunsen and Beaker, Statler and Waldorf as much as they...
Maybe. And I’ve seen at least one interview with one of the Henson people saying that TMS was introducing new characters all the time (well, not so much in the last two seasons). But there is a big difference.
Until The Muppet Show premiered, there wasn’t really a core group of Muppets. Sesame...
Yeah, even the episodes that had been in fan collections before fans started getting rare episodes mysteriously have not made their way to YouTube, as far as I can tell. I have searched for the episode where Gordon gets a good citizens award a few times.
A few months ago I finally got a copy of the Bob DVD set (and around that time I was reading a few articles reviewing the show, and I added a ton of info on the show to TV Tropes). It is a great show. Previously I had only seen a few episodes on TV Land.
I was thinking that the first season...
I saw that today is Jim Barney’s birthday.
anyway, a few more things to say about Ernest Goes to Camp…
The opening credits sequence is rather basic compared to the other theatrical films (which had illustrations, visual effects, and other forms of cool-ness), but in watching the movie the...
Last night I watched Ernest Goes to Camp for the first time in years, and I have some observations.
The poster and video cover seems to have a lot of the main cast (including some relatively minor characters, like Stennis and the foreman), but there's also a few notable characters not on the...
One thing I find a little odd is how many of the Number of the Day segments are presented in Cool Counting Collection. I feel like the reveal of the number is supposed to keep people guessing. But some Number of the Day segments in the video come after segments on the number, as opposed to...
Last night I was editing things in the page for the show Newhart, and in the edit format, it says not to list tropes without explaining examples (which I was told when I signed up, though I often do see it on pages), and also with tropes not to just list a character or episode title or something...
I finished watching it and filled the sketch rundown on the wiki.
In a way, it’s disappointing, but at the same time, there are segments that I enjoyed a bit. It doesn’t really have anything I would have included if I had compiled the segments, and I especially wouldn’t have been too aware of...
I started listing segments as I watched it, but had to stop watching for a bit. I'll add the rest later unless somebody beats me to it, still got to add in segments for numbers 11-20.
For those hoping there would be classic early segments, so far the oldest segment I have found is "Cloud...
I went to one store and didn't see a copy, but I rented a digital copy, watching it now. I did a quick skim through and didn't notice anything too "must have".
Some things about the "Oscar vs. recycling" episode:
So it's recycling just to give somebody a hand me down or an item that one is no longer using but isn't really being altered? Susan gives Maria Miles' old stroller for Gabbi and they call it recycling, but it's not being altered or used beyond...
