I recently read at TV Tropes that there was a period when Steven Spielberg wanted to be a serious director. But I thought he was a "serious director" (maybe because of this period...?). I can barely think of any comedies he directed (there's 1942, and I'm not entirely sure whether Hook was a...

I recently read that the Saturday Night Live video collection showcasing the best of each season ("The Best of 1975", "The Best of 1986", "The Best of 1994", etc.) just has three episodes edited to 30 minutes each. If they're showcasing the best of each season, shouldn't they just pick the best...

I often think about how Follow That Bird often gets overlooked in retrospectives/biographies on Jim Henson and Sesame Street. I feel like it (and Elmo in Grouchland) should be included and recognized more. But then it hit me: If it was a TV special or direct-to-video production as opposed to a...

The other night, I dreamt that I was watching an alternate version of the Mad Man Mooney scene from The Muppet Movie, where Mad Man Mooney realizes how the decimal got on the price tag and wipes it off, only for the Muppets to dismiss it as "the oldest trick in the book".

Here's something else I was thinking about today. I know I've thought about it before, and might have mentioned it somewhere, though not in this thread (I've looked through all my posts in this thread to make sure): A book or CD-ROM compiling info on every single episode. I know, it would...

Today I thought of something that would be cool (though I think I suggested something like it before). A reference book on every production The Jim Henson Company did. All Muppet and Bear productions (at least the ones that Henson made), all Sesame Street productions, all movies the Creature...

Right now I Have "All About That Bass" and "Feels Like Heaven" stuck in my head.

I always thought Animal and Floyd looked similar. Never thought Animal and Janice did.

According to the Tough Pigs forum, Elmo's Super Numbers will have an extended version of the Numericon episode.

Bobby Benson has interracted with Kermit, Fozzie, and Link Hogthrob. And I guess the babies.

Hmm, I might as well also link to "Proud of Me".

Okay, I found it on YouTube a week ago and then remembered this thread and thought it'd be good to post the clip here for more to see.

I saw an interview with either the director or writer where they commented on Fozzie being stupid. But outside of the 1990s, Fozzie usually isn't stupid, or at least not that stupid. I'd say he's at least a little smarter here than in MCT, MTI, and MFS. Though it seems the Muppets in general are...

The closest they got to interacting was in Muppets Most Wanted, when Crazy Harry pops out of the orchestra pit to ask "Did somebody say explosion?", to which Sweetums replies "No! He said I set his world on fire!" Since the two are now both performed by Matt Vogel, I doubt they'll get to...

So when The Angry Video Game Nerd reviewed Desert (or Dessert?) Bus, he talked about how so many people had played that game despite it being so bad, and thought that he'd failed because people were playing bad games that he reviewed, even though he told them not to play it. But in the case of...

No. Fire drills allow us to be out of the classroom for a few minutes. Gives us an unexpected break from class. Allows us to potentially talk to people from other classes.

And the show didn't have sponsor plugs when the show began?

Besides, I just read that Discovery Zone opened in 1989, and Sesame Street began in 1969. DZ couldn't have been the first sponsor.

Yeah, I started to lose interest in Nick at Nite around 2004 when they seemed to only have three or four shows and just replayed them back-to-back several times a night.

Back when Craig Shemin was interviewed for Tough Pigs this past March, he mentioned that he would tape reruns of The Muppet Show every day, and one day the Muppets appearance on Parkingsons was shown. I know that when some shows are rerun in syndication they'll include separate related specials...
