    The Muppets Aren't Funny Anymore

    But to continually make Muppet content more and more exclusive is going to be more of a hinderance than a help.

    The Muppets Aren't Funny Anymore

    Being a fan does not equate to being able to write for them. This was a point Frank had mentioned on Twitter before: just because Disney may like the Muppets doesn't necessarily mean they know exactly what to do with them.

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    Hmm, this is interesting. . . . A pre-Elmo monster with Elmo's voice.

    Official: “Muppets Now”, an unscripted series coming to Disney+ on July 31, 2020

    Dear God, you could make a drinking game out of (bleep) Duke says on this forum. Taking a shot every time he says "You're wrong, I'm right," or "Disney does know what they're doing with the Muppets" will result in alcohol poisoning and lead to death.

    Unearthing previously "lost" Sesame Street episodes

    The first one doesn't bother me in the last, but that bottom one, yes; looks like a Krofft puppet that'd pop up on a DONNY & MARIE sketch.

    Unpopular Opinions

    My unpopular opinion for today: if you're an artist, and your friends want freebies from you . . . they should be entitled to 'em. Especially if they, themselves, are also artists, and don't have the extra money to blow on something that probably anybody else they don't personally know would...

    So at least once during the first season, Jim stepped in for Oscar and Grover. Wow.

    I have no gaydar. Heck, there's been many straight men I've mistaken for being gay because of their flamboyant personalities or personas, like Greg Proops, Prince, and even Doug Walker. I also once thought Hayden Panettierre was a lesbian just because she called another girl hot.

    Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

    Isn't it adorable when lil' Dukey tries using big words to make himself sound superior over the rest of us?

    Sesame Street Season 50 Episode 5013 - A New Friend on Sesame Street

    By the way, what's with the increased obsession with stained glass on the street? Is this something of a fad/trend within NYC in recent years or something?

    Sesame Street Season 50 Episode 5013 - A New Friend on Sesame Street

    This felt like an almost complete recycle of the Season 33 street story where Emily moved to the street, only with the mythology nods to the very first episode, quoting Gordon's very first line: "You've never seen a street like Sesame Street! Everything happens here, you're gonna love it!" Right...

    When you need to rant...

    I haven't really used Smack Jeeves in years, since my last webcomic ended its run years ago (and nobody really read it anyway), but man, they apparently just completely redid the entire site, and there are pretty much no words to describe how much it sucks! The biggest slap in the face is they...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    To be fair, the likes of Tom Ruegger and Paul Rugg have said the exact same thing about shows like ANIMANIACS and FREAKAZOID!, even though those are considered kids show.

    Billy Porter on SS: Real or Hoax?

    Alright then, that clears everything up. But yeah, I never understand these complaints from people who whine that SS has "become to liberal" or "too leftist" or "too politically correct," because it's always been that way from day one in 1969 - it was born out of liberation! It was born out of...

    Billy Porter on SS: Real or Hoax?

    I've seen the pictures floating around on social media, but I didn't see where they came directly from SS, so I didn't know if they were real or Photoshopped.

    I mean I literally just found out about it last night when somebody mentioned it in passing on Facebook last night when discussing this whole controversy over the possibility of Billy Porter appearing on SS in the future.
