I often wonder if shows starring the lead characters count. Shouldn't it be a sequel series? I also find it odd that There's a Crowd is often referred to as a spin-off from Three's Company, since that show stars Jack Tripper.

I didn't think about that possibility. So they do that on shows that have continuity? I don't watch Two and a Half Men every week, but I watch enough to not notice continuity errors due to scheduling. I do watch How I Met Your Mother and The Big Bang Theory every week, and haven't noticed any...

Happy Days had Laverne and Shirley, Mork and Mindy, and Joanie Loves Chachi, as well as two short-lived shows: Blansky's Beauties and Out of the Blue (the later of which is debatably a spin-off, as the show actually debuted a week before the spin-offs character appeared on Happy Days, though...

I've noticed this season on Two and a Half Men that many episodes start with "Previously on Two and a Half Men...", even if the previous episode was not about that. What's the deal there? As far as I know other shows that have continuing storylines don't do that. And occasionally there'll be...

Well, on Family Guy I often laugh at things that normally wouldn't be funny. Like whenever a "parody" is really just a recreation of a scene from a movie or something only with Family Guy characters in place of the originals, or whenever live-action is used (if the scenes were animated or the...

I think I've heard of instances on TV shows and maybe even movies where actors who don't have any creative duties like writing or directing suggest ideas that get used. I can't think of any examples off-hand (maybe I will after I go to sleep and wake up), but I wonder if there's a clause in the...

Can't determine whether that's more interesting or not, but I wonder if there could be a successful adult cartoon series that frequently has loads of obvious sex and drug humor but also has just as many episodes without that kind of humor.

I got this book for Christmas. After I got it I searched the forum to see if there was a thread for this book, and couldn't find one. I recently thought about starting it myself, but then procrastination got in the way. :) This is a great book, though I can't tell if it has any information...

Well, I found that there is a trope I was asking about (the one regarding people badmouthing others who suddenly happen to show up behind them), and saw that it's called Right Behind Me.

I'm watching the episode where Aaron plays with Michelle and Teddy, but doesn't really like having to be around Michelle because she's a girl. At one point they play superheroes, and Aaron says that Michelle can't play. Becky suggests she be Wonder Woman, but Aaron dismisses it because Michelle...

Why is it that on many TV shows and movies where the main character is a kid, the child actor often doesn't get top billing? I know there are exceptions (Macully Culkin in most of his starring roles, Fred Savage in The Wonder Years and, I think, The Wizard), but it often seems the kids don't get...

Regular Show is a great show. It's been so long since there was last a new show "for kids" that I actually liked, but Regular Show, Adventure Time, and The Looney Tunes Show are all great. Though I feel Regular Show really should be an Adult Swim show.

How do we know those photos aren't supposed to be Kermit wearing a fake mole to impersonate Constantine? I wouldn't be surprised if he does that.

Now I have "Baby Come Back" stuck in my head.

I'm pretty sure Jerry Nelson wasn't involved, though he did record voices for Here Comes the Muppets and performed in The Muppets at Walt Disney World. Then again, I think I read that Muppet*Vision 3D was actually filmed at Disneyland (or at least in California) even though it was only shown at...

It's a shame that they make movies with just one fairly-common-but-not really word in the title. There's Labyrinth, Pan's Labyrinth, and now this (and there's also the game Sonic Labyrinth as well as a number of Sonic games having Labyrinth Zones). The term Labyrinth had been around before the...

I would say those aren't too important, the whatnot women are merely back-up singers, but I guess we can say the Muppaphones are Jerry, Richard, and Jim. It's interesting, you keep finding old TMS outlines where I didn't list "who performed who"... I could have sworn I did that with at least...

I was recently surfing through Henson.com, looking at the various production pages. Back when it listed the Muppet productions, noting that Disney owns the Muppets now, I thought it was just referring to what Disney got, which included some things that the distribution rights are owned by other...

I was looking at the Odyssey Channel page at Muppet Wiki, and saw that it mentions that The Kermit and Piggy Story has aired on that channel (and I actually think I remember reading that it was on the channel at least once). I wonder what Odyssey cut from it's broadcast. I find it a bit odd...

And I was looking at the page for The Silent Bob and that's not exactly what I had in mind.... That's where silent characters CAN easily interact with others despite their lack of dialogue (and it seems lack of signs or gestures... I didn't notice any non-anthropomorphic animal characters...
