Lol, that is the best Muppet reference yet. Poor Kermit and Piggy, hehe. I did watch the Man About the House movie as well. I love that scene where Chrissy and Jo are coming home late and Robin's been slaving over a hot stove and says, "And what time do you call this?" Lol

Absolutely. This is the part where I laugh at myself a bit and remind myself I have never been a starving artist and therefore have the luxury of pointing out injustice when I haven't had to fully deal with it myself. :) So yeah, I get where you're coming from.

Sure, there are some people who manage to stay on top for longer periods. There are kids who are always popular in school. That doesn't change the fact that the entertainment industry is a shallow clique of who "belongs" and who doesn't (i.e. who is making money right now and who isn't). And the...

OK I'll wait on that then, I don't want to give things away. I'm just saying the cult of celebrity does a lot of damage to innocent people. But hey, I'm excited about the special because anything Thanksgivingy/Christmasy gets me excited, lol. And because it's great to see the Muppets gets some...

It's in the contract.

Don't remind me, lol. And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this clique mentality didn't exist in years past. Did you read the Jim Henson biography yet? Before I go further I want to make sure I'm not giving anything away.

Exactly. We the audience go along with this sick clique mentality of who is "in" and who is "out."

I have to admit, that would get my attention more. I'm going to be frank, Hollywood and the music industry really are just cesspools sometimes with all this "A list," "D list," "Has-Been" nonsense.

In 1994, hmm, I knew who Madonna was (probably from League of Their Own) and I kinda knew who Prince was, but only from like one picture in the paper. It wasn't until 96-97 that I really started watching VH1 and became more aware of popular music. But yeah anyway, yes it is good that the...

Ahh, Zoobilee Zoo! That show I definitely remember from my childhood. Really, there's nothing better than a much of Broadway performers embarrassing themselves on TV for your personal enjoyment and education. :)

Well that's always been a staple of children's programming, the human adults are smarter than the childlike puppet characters, even if they're meant to be grown ups themselves. The episode I saw had the owl going to a trivia contest on TV and he hadn't studied enough and kept getting...

I was too young for New Zoo Revue but I happened to randomly catch it on TV a few years ago. May be the first time I literally almost died laughing, lol.

I can understand children finding that funny (though I never did, even as a child, hehe). It's when adults laugh that I pity the world, lol.

I will give them the benefit and assume they're targeting people who are too poor to afford Internet connections in their homes.

Yeah, seriously, parents? You need to stop lying to your children and pretending vegetables will actually taste good. The moment the child realizes your deception, they will turn on you, destroying whatever progress you hoped for. Personally I think there's no shame in bribing your child to eat...

I loved Lazytown. Strangely enough I ended up watching it almost every morning before class at college. Like you say, it's the hammy villain that really elevates the show for me, lol. There was the episode where he stole Stephanie's diary, only to realize she had written nice things about him...

Good grief...

Um....actually...I liked that video growing up. :o But OK, OK, the chickens line was definitely funnier than the nipples line. There, happy? :halo:

Sounds like it's becoming the Beast Wars of TMNT. It's not the first so it doesn't get that credit, and it's not the latest so it gets shoved to the back.

No I get you, the chorus is very uplifting. It gets me in the mood too and I only heard it for the first time last year. Lol, yeah we have a large Italian population too and I'm quite familiar with Dominique the Donkey.
