    CTS' TMS Listings for Jan. 26-30

    Good observation, Pug. I noticed that too when I watched it. There have been a few eps. CTS aired where the sound quality was a bit off, like when it showed the Teresa Brewer, Leslie Uggams and the Kris Kristofferson/Rita Coolidge eps. On some eps. the picture quality is noticeably off too, esp...

    Questions about Region-Free DVD Players

    That was a very good link about RCE. I had actually known about some R1 discs presenting problems for some people who own multi-region players. I tried some out last night, including "Spider-Man," and they played just fine. I mention "Spider-Man" because it was listed as being one of the films...

    "Good Boy" makes worst-of lists

    This morning I watched Ebert & Roeper's countdown of the Worst Films of 2003. "Good Boy" made both their lists. Roger Ebert placed it in #8, while Richard Roeper ranked it at #6. Did anybody here see this movie? Based on what I read and saw, it appears to be one *dog* of a film! :boo: :sleep...

    I bought it at the House of 220 @ 1444 Gerrard St. E. (Coxwell & Gerrard). Its Web site address is www.houseof220.com. Apparently the Daewoo brand is the only one that is compatible with NTSC TVs. The staff were very helpful and informative when I was researching region-free players. As far as I...

    Questions about Region-Free DVD Players

    Well folks, I finally did it. Today I bought a Daewoo Region-Free DVD player! It's the S500 model (cost $225 CDN). And tonight I got to play a bit of my first R2 disc, and it happens to be a Muppets release. Before I bought the player I bought the UK release of Muppet Family Christmas & The...

    Sesame's 35th season kicks off with a prime-time special

    Yes this does sound cool! Oscar is one of my faves! Almost makes me want to watch SS again! I'd probably watch it more frequently if I had kids, but knowing that Oscar is going to get more show time gives me some incentive to go relive some childhood days! OI MuppetFan :grouchy:

    Big Bird's "China" & "Japan" specials coming to DVD!

    Tough Pigs reported it. It must be a reliable source because Amazon.com also has it listed in their upcoming DVD releases (for February 10, 2004). OI MuppetFan

    Big Bird's "China" & "Japan" specials coming to DVD!

    Two nights ago I read on another Muppet-related site that the two classic Big Bird specials from China and Japan will finally get released on DVD this Feb. 10! I wonder if this is going to lead to other exciting SS reissues? Does anybody known if any other SS DVD releases are planned for this...
