Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
I found some of the Cartoon Gang bumpers, where kids discuss cartoons. And I've seen that there's at least two where they discuss Nickelodeon cartoons.
I remember seeing the one about Rugrats on TV, felt it was odd even back then that they'd discuss it on Cartoon Network.
And then I found...
In both Problem Child 2 and The Simpsons episode "Crepes of Wrath", characters flush small explosive devices down the toilet, which end up coming out of a toilet in the opposite genders room in the same school (right when somebody sits on that toilet). In real life, can a stick of dynamite or a...
Ownership limbo? Disney owns the Muppet Babies, including Skeeter.
If you're referring to the trouble they went through to have her be named in The Muppet Show Comic Book, that was really Roger Langridge being unsure whether Disney would approve of Muppet Babies in the comic book series. But...
I saw one of the plots being about Elmo not wanting to take a bath and Ernie telling him of the importance of baths. I guess that will be the episode with the new celebrity "Rubber Duckie" montage. And yay, another episode with Ernie in the plot!
I'm really not surprised that they're making...
I don;t think I'd give Taz-Mania most of the credit. It was popular enough to be on the air for about five seasons, and the Tasmanian Devil is one of the most hugely popular Looney Tunes characters, but I don't think the show was THAT popular. Certainly not as much as Tiny Toons or Animaniacs...
There's a lot of works where somebody inherits a fortune on the condition of having to stay in a haunted house overnight. But has anything like this ever been known to have happened in real life? Have there been any works where they have an actual explanation for WHY the deceased wants their...
The next video is Singing with the Stars 2, coming February 7.
So far, all of the announced songs seem to be from the HD-era. I noticed one of the songs is "Believe in Yourself", the version with Michael Buble. After seeing recent posts about how HBO has been removing/replacing a lot of Joe...
I want to say Ron Howard. I'm pretty sure both Andy Griffin and Happy Days had more than 100 episodes, and Ron Howard left after 100 episodes, but did Opie appear in 100 episodes of The Andy Griffin Show? I know that not every main character appeared in every episode.
If Matlock had 100...
I remember when Muppet Central had some of the articles reprinted, one that stuck out was "Weird Muppet Moments in History". And I only thought that the first few were really weird (though now I take back the one with Rowlf campaigning for president, it's funny but I don't know if it's weird...
So in the Family Guy episode "Herpe the Love Sore", Brian tells Stewie that herpes will really only burn up during moments of intense stress. So having herpes isn't intensely stressful enough to burn up all the time?
So in the I Love Lucy episode "Job Switching", the husbands start doing housework while the wives go out to get jobs. So in doing this, do Ricky and Fred still have their jobs?
After all, Rickey ran a nightclub (and did he have his own television show?), was he going to give up running the...
Well, at the time, Mulch had pretty much stopped appearing in new productions, while Van Neuter was still around as a solo character (though his last appearance came before the figure did), while Johnny Fiama and Sal were still actively appearing in new productions, neither splitting up. Though...
I just remembered something Nickelodeon did during the 1992 election (has the channel done it for every election since?). They had a "Kids Pick the President" where kids could call and say who they vote for.
But what was the point? Just to show who would win if kids voted (as I recall...
One thing I've noticed about Hey Arnold (which I had thought about putting in the "you know what?" thread): The show has two different characters named Robert who were never referred to directly by name.
One Robert was a blonde boy with glasses and a green shirt. The only time his name was...
I just saw recently that the next Nostalgia Critic Editorial will be about whether the PG rating means anything anymore.
So what would be wrong with Casey Jones?
He was.
When it comes to figures branded for a movie when the characters were already around, Lips was the only one to be branded from a movie whilethe figure itself didn't have anything related to that movie and could have been branded as from The Muppet Show. I often thought that Lips should...
I put this in general discussion because I wasn't sure which of the Muppet folders it belongs in. But a couple of weeks ago, Tough Pigs posted scans from every issue of Muppetzine. It's a fun read.

I didn't know about it until I got the internet in 1996...
I remember one time in school, one of my classmates said he had to take his uncle to school, and we all (including the teacher) laughed. And we laughed harder when he said that his uncle was, I think, in the first grade. My teacher actually asked him how it was possible, and the student said...
It was common knowledge that the naked versions of those two were originally planned to come out first, but then it was decided to have variants of those two (as well as Stunt Gonzo and Frog Scout Robin) before the standard versions to help the line last longer, to prevent series of only...
