I wasn't expecting the movie to be titled Peabody's Impossible History. Somehow I get the feeling that casual fans don't know that title, instead calling it "Mr. Peabody" (or maybe "Mr. Peabody and Sherman"). I didn't notice the "Peabody's Improbably History" title until I was 13.

I can't believe I misheard that lyric (even though it was sung the way I remember later in the film). But it wouldn't be the first song lyric I misheard (I had thought that "the lollipop guild" from The Wizard of Oz was "the lollipop kids", and it is common for people to mishear certain song...

I really liked the show Baby Bob. I know that pretty much everybody else hates that show (though my mom also liked it). I didn't know many others who watched it (when I talked to my classmates about it after watching the first episode I only vaguely remember anybody else saying that they watched...

Has that show been canceled already?

Mr. Peabody and Sherman looks like it'll be the best of the Bullwinkle movies. I wasn't expecting Sherman's name to be in the title. I thought it would just be titled Mr. Peabody.

In the movie Hocus Pocus, the main characters have trouble convincing the town that they brought the witches back to life. But doesn't the movie take place in a town that believes in the legend of the Sanderson sisters? I can see the parents not believing them since they just moved there, but...

In Snow White, the seven dwarves sing "Heigh Ho" on the way home from work, but it has the line "it's off to work we go". Shouldn't it be "off from work we go"?

I managed to digitize Janice for the main stage during this limited time availability (I guess it helps that I have everybody you can get on the stage). I had to dismiss some spare Divettes and Rats before getting Janice, which isn't a big deal, but it gets me thinking, since you can only...

Sprout cuts Sesame Street episodes? I thought it was a commercial-free channel, so there's really no reason to cut segments out (well, I know that Elmo's World: Transportation was replaced with a different segment in a season 30 episode_.

Although I already did a detailed breakdown of the timeline, I'm going to redo it, more like a list and with things I didn't think to say at first. The Gold: 1969-1984 Part 1: 1969-1970 There's less characters. Less humans, less recurring Muppets, and less performers. Most weeks are sponsored...

Well, I first saw the clip in the special Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting. I was born in 1984, shortly after Mr. Hooper died, so I wasn't too familiar with him. So for about a decade and maybe a half my main exposure to Mr. Hooper was through Christmas Eve on Sesame Street and a few books...

Another thing about the timeline is that from the 1980s until the very late 1990s, it was rare for Jim or Frank's characters to appear in street scenes, the usual exception being in a movie, special, or book. I noticed this even as a kid (one who not only didn't know they were puppets, but who...

So we get two new Guy Smiley and Cookie Monster pairings this season?

I'm pretty sure that Michael Earl performed Forgetful for all of season 12. Michael Earl was let go after the season, it'd make more sense the character would be replaced after instead of before. In fact there is another Forgetful Jones segment that was remade, where Clementine helps...

Right now I have You Can Call Me Al by Paul Simon stuck in my head. It's such a great song that I don't exactly hear often (well, until last week). And just last week I saw the music video for the first time. Great video.

Well, I wasn't really sure if Elton was British or American, but thought he lived in America at the time of The Muppet Show (which would have been after he had been famous). Of course for years I've been surprised that certain talents would forget that they were involved with certain...

It's actually called Charlie's Auto Repair? I had no idea. I wonder if this is the same Charlie that Grover works for.

I thought he was based in America regardless.

Last night I dreamt that I was watching The Muppet Revue, and it had short transitions that were clips from the first three movies, in some cases characters were rotoscoped (I think that's the right word) out of clips into other clips. And it wasn't just Muppet movies... One Muppet clip had...

I keep hearing that big cities like New York City are more expensive to live in, but they have large populations. Shouldn't they be cheaper if they have a lot more people living there and paying for things?
