    The Sonic the Hedgehog Thread

    I found the TV Tropes thing that mentioned the Sonic CD coding lost, in the "edit history" page for Keep Circulating the Tapes, which for some reason was removed from the page (along with info on the few Sonic games that haven't been rereleased on later systems). And I saw that it did mention...

    The Great Space Coaster

    I was thinking, couldn't they start an official Great Space Coaster YouTube channel, with clips of the non-music segments (depending on whether they would need clearances to include the music numbers on YouTube)? Another thing they could do is put episodes (at least the ones converted to...

    Questions about anything

    What WAS the point of Sega making 32x CD games? You were required to have both a Sega CD and a Sega 32X (and, obviously, a Sega Genesis), but the 32x CD games were just CDs. Did the discs have some way of detecting if a 32X was connected? Just now I thought, "at least people wouldn't need to...

    The Sonic the Hedgehog Thread

    I would have thought it'd be easier to emulate Sega CD games onto disc-based systems, since Sega CD games were on discs. They were able to put several Genesis and Game Gear games on various compilations, and Sonic Gems included a Saturn game. And I've been informed that a number of other Sega CD...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt that I went to Walt Disney World and the Sweetums walk-around was actually there to sign autographs. I know that while a walk-around sometimes appears in events at the park he's not supposed to sign autographs, pose for pictures, or be close-up to the guests (because it's...

    Automatonophobic mother fears daughter might buy a Muppet toy

    Well, for the last several years it hasn't been that easy to find a Kermit toy in stores, though it was a bit more common when The Muppets came out (and hopefully for us there'll be more when Muppets Most Wanted comes out - or maybe she'll get her wish and there once again won't be much tie-in...

    Happy Birthday Matt Vogel!

    No, Bill Barretta only did Lew for It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie and (the extended version of) The Muppets' Wizard of Oz. Matt has been Lew since 2008.

    Happy Birthday Matt Vogel!

    I didn't know it was his birthday. Maybe there should be a birthday banner for him at Muppet Central (though it's been a long time since any new ones were added). It could have Big Bird and '80s Robot in addition to some of Jerry Nelson's characters he has taken over.

    The Sonic the Hedgehog Thread

    A few months ago, I read on TV Tropes that the original coding for Sonic CD is lost, which is why it was left out of the Sonic Mega Collection. And it was said that in order for it to be included on the Sonic Gems Collection, they used a hack of the PC version. And the current digital release is...

    The Chipmunks

    I was first exposed to the Chipmunks through Alvin and the Chipmunks. Then I saw the Alvin Show designs, first when the shorts were shown on Nickelodeon's Weinerville and then when Nick aired The Alvin Show (and it seems two of the Chipmunks Sing-Along videos were compilations of the music...

    The Great Space Coaster

    Oh, you know, recently I was wondering if there was a difference between royalties and residuals.

    The Great Space Coaster

    I assumed that residuals are what the songwriters get when their songs are used, and I've read that the show had a lot of established songs (much like The Muppet Show did) and that it would cost a lot to clear for DVD releases. It seems I often learn different things about residuals. I had...

    Roosevelt Franklin may return in Sesame Street Season 45

    One thing I wonder about is, was Roosevelt really used that much in the first three seasons? I recently saw a magazine article about the second season (it was pictured on the Red Book site) which mentioned Roosevelt Franklin as if he was a new character for the season, though he had starred in...

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    If it's in alphabetical order, then I'd expect Andy Pig to be listed before Animal. The official description does mention Andy and Randy Pig, though it's possible they're just mentioned/included in a section on Miss Piggy. I feel it might also be cool if there could be sections on various...

    Taz-Mania! It's about freaking time!

    Has anybody seen any copies of the Taz-Mania DVDs? Two volumes have been out, and I haven't found any copies anywhere. Not at Target, Wal-Mart, or Best Buy, and those places usually have Warner Home Videos family market releases (of course I have also never found a copy of the Porky Pig DVD that...

    The Great Space Coaster

    It has been said that music rights are one of the main factors in keeping the show from getting a DVD release.

    There was an Austin Powers cartoon series (or plans for one)?

    Roosevelt Franklin may return in Sesame Street Season 45

    Most of the classroom segments I have seen don't really seem to show the class acting too rowdy, aside from throwing paper airplanes (but then they do stop when Roosevelt shows up). Segments like "Morty Moot Mope", "Bad Luck to be Borna Duck", the poison segment, "Talking Loud/Talking Soft"...

    The Great Space Coaster

    I recall reading an FAQ, which had one question that was basically asking if they'd save a certain episode, and the response was that they only have episode numbers (and I think dates), meaning they don't know what episode each master tape is without watching them. So does that mean they don't...
