    R.I.P. Mort Walker (1923-2018)

    Not to mention Howard Morris (aka Ernest T. Bass from Andy Griffith, and Flem from Cow and Chicken) did Beetle's voice in animated form.

    The "I Saw Something REALLY Weird Today" Thread

    Apparently Meghan Trainor has lost a bunch of weight. Still dresses like a #03 though.

    R.I.P. Mort Walker (1923-2018)

    Even though I haven't read the funny papers in a long, long time, BEETLE BAILEY was always a favorite of mine . . . I can even remember a long time ago adding a new Tech Sergeant to the cast, and holding a contest to come up with a new name for him - I remember submitting a name, but in...

    Film vs. Theatre

    M*A*S*H did a similar episode where Hawkeye was the only main character in it, seeking shelter with a Korean family that didn't speak any English while the children went for help - it was basically just a half-hour of Hawkeye monologuing.

    Stephanie D'Abruzzo responds about Caroll Spinney

    Definitely Matt. You can hear that sort of nasal-quality in the voice. So they are, indeed, still using Segi despite Joey's departure . . . but her voice sounds noticably different: it sounds more like a generic child's voice, as opposed to that more urban-flavored voice she's had in the past.

    When you need to rant...

    I feel like that more and more lately, it's been going on for a couple of years now, and I honestly don't know if it's because I have a tendancy to stay up later than I intend to, or if it's the insomnia I have, or if it's even some kind of a combination of a lot of things. It's really bizarre...

    Sesame Street Season 48 Episode 4811 - Kitty Kindness

    Hey, we got a street story with Cookie Monster and Grover, and minimal Elmo involvement - how can we go wrong? It was enjoyable to see Cookie and Grover attempt to sit the kitten in their own, enthusiastic, childlike manner, only for Chris to have to repeatedly show them the errors of their...

    Puppet Mouth Movements

    The idea is to try to keep your four fingers and the top of the mouth as still as possible when lip syncing, because this is supposed to represent the top of the head, and when people talk, the top of their heads don't move, just their jaws, hence why you're really only supposed to move your...

    The New Am I The Only One Thread

    That's been the subject of discussion quite often, is that there once upon a time when Trump could actually speak intelligently and articulately . . . now, medical experts are saying that he's got the vocabulary of a fourth-grader. It's being speculated that he's slipping into dementia or...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Well, audio at least; the advent of stereo was around this time, so that probably has something to do with it.

    When you need to rant...

    It was when I was at PBS. Granted, I know I was legally still a kid, and therefore that whole Child Labor Law was at play, but given how frequently I used in the studio for various different production tasks, such as camerawork and what have you, you'd think they could at least bump me up to a...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Ever notice that so many movies from the 70s have terrible, terrible sound quality? TMM is no exception to that, but really, a lot of 70s movies have sound that sounds as though you're listening to the entire movie through a phone that's being held up to a speaker.

    Film vs. Theatre

    It's a lot like when Tony Randall and Jack Klugman insisted THE ODD COUPLE switch from single-camera with just a laugh track to multi-camera in front of a live audience: both of their performances certainly have a lot more life, enthusiam, and charisma when the show had a live audience as...

    When you need to rant...

    Being an intern has pros and cons. On the one hand, you're gaining experience that you otherwise won't get since most employers won't hire anyone without an ounce of experience; on the other hand, since you're not technically an employee, you don't get paid.
