    Mr. Hooper plays Pac-Man

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juH2qHYX9aI We can ignore the comments below the video on that page - some of them are VERY stupid. But that happens when it's not a fan base like this, gathering around the common interest (and even many times despite that - it's just that we have a great...

    Smurfs Movie Info

    Right on! Well said about letting the Smurfs be themselves - same dumb formula that really ruins things...but they keep using it. Does it make them more money than if they left things as they should be? Hard to know, since no one does that anymore. But I have a theory I will mention in my...

    Smurfs Movie Info

    I did like "Cloudy..." and "Open Season" (and never saw OS2, Speed Racer, Alvin 2 or Surf's Up) but your point about them doing everything wrong with the upcoming Smurfs movie (other than having Jonathan Winters - the only shining light here) is 100% right, DrTooth! :) And on a side note, I...

    Prog Rock (Roger Waters and more)

    Very cool! :D I know very little about the music at this point, but that doesn't diminish my interest and enthusiasm for your review - I'm looking forward to the details!

    Your Thoughts: Dinosaur Train

    I never saw it until recently, so I wouldn't know about a lyric change - but I do agree it's a cool song! And a nice message that he's accepted by the mother dinosaur! Very heart-warming, when you think about it. Very sweet when she takes him with them across the sky, too! Mommy won't be...

    An oldie but a goodie

    By the way, I learned there is this thing (sorry, I won't get the technical terms right) for one of those portable things people bring with them everywhere (not a regular cell phone, and not an Ipod) that looks like a game, but when you press start, this video starts. I was tricked yesterday by...

    Mummenschanz

    Son of Enik - Yes, I now recall a clip or two on youtube of them on Sesame Street...I didn't find them searching now, but perhaps they were never labeled as such to begin with. But somewhere (maybe here?) someone posted the links. Nice to hear the enthusiasm for Mummenschanz from Beauregard...

    TMS's US and UK skit/song differences

    It sure does clear it all up - thank you! Now I feel like I read this before - but even if that's true, since I forgot, I still "needed" that info! :)

    TMS's US and UK skit/song differences

    Here comes a long multi-part question...sorry :o I heard a while back that the Muppet Show had a different skit (or was it song?) between the US and UK version of every episode. Is this true? And if so, why? And lastly, were both the UK and US ones on the DVD sets? If not, which one was chosen...

    Mummenschanz

    Mummenschanz (a guest on the Muppet Show's first season) had a commercial about 20 years ago (or a bit more) for their broadway shows, I believe...and I was wondering if anyone remembers it: The set is pitch black and a frowning faced character is in a cage on the right in the back. Along comes...

    What is your favorite version of Alice in Wonderland?

    I know I saw multiple versions when I was little, but the only ones I've seen in the last ten years are the original Disney one from the 50's and the Svankmajer one from the 80's - however that's just called "Alice" or "Something From Alice" because it's not a wonderland. Other than Alice, it's...

    The Garfield Show - pleasantly surprised

    I saw it the other day on an episode, Odie brought it out, and Garfield said something like, "No! Not the Klopman diamond!" - no lie! :)

    LOVE the St. Patrick's Day "decorations" :)

    For lack of a better phrase - Nice how Robin has gold, Kermit has a banjo, and the Swamp Year's pals are there! :)

    Prog Rock (Roger Waters and more)

    And I forgot, he did a song for "Wall-E"! A really good one! :) PS I assume your signature about the crumpet is referencing the Muppets Valentine's Day special a.k.a. 2nd pilot episode(!)? I was happy for Droop (and the crumpet!) when he saw the crumpet was alive! :)
