    Hanna-Barbera

    The short with Jerry and an unnamed mouse torturing Tom, " The Year of the Mouse", was a carbon copy of Jones's own "Mouse Wreckers". Still beautifully drawn, but Hubie, Bertie, and Claude the Cat get the nod for this one.

    Are there Season 1 shows floating around?

    I was around when the Muppet version of "Up Up and Away" was shown. Some years back I posted a synopsis of the skit (it might take some digging, but my post should still be here some pages back). With the good fortune we had of seeing other Season One songs posted recently, this gem will...

    Hanna-Barbera

    Yes, the "Tom and Jerry Cartoon Kit", where we can also learn about the joys of poison gas, according to the narrator. But even Gene's weaker efforts are masterpieces compared to the 1975 series.

    What are you Thankful For?

    Where to begin... Thankful for recovery after open heart surgery. Got a new valve in my heart to give me an extra 15 years or so. Thankful for my wife and who stood by me in the hopsital, and took care of so much until I could get on my feet again. Thankful for my best friend who flew...

    Shout-Outs and Such

    A few shout-outs to the rest of us Fortysomethings out there: @Katzi428 @Xerus @Mokeystar @Ziffel and for you young'ens, 40 might seem like a long way off for you, but believe me, all you have to do is blink and it will be there before you know it. For those of us above, time to catch the...

    Hanna-Barbera

    "Amazing Chan" is cool enough to watch just the opening credits. 60 seconds tells the whole story. THEN wisely move on. It would be wonderful if they ever release a Banana Splits box set with the original uncut episodes, including the Kellogg commercials (this show was at the time the most...

    Hanna-Barbera

    Hanna Barbera always had something great to offer, and I got to enjoy them firsthand from the late 60's onward. Likable characters (even lovable sometimes)- Top Cat, Augie Doggie, Magilla Gorilla, etc. plus the best voice talent in the busines- Arnold Stang, Allan Melvin, Howard Morris, and the...

    Questions about anything

    As if poor Bill ain't got enough on his mind. Every few years somebody posts his obituary online as a hoax. Just this month he kicked the bucket again. Let the guy eat his pudding in peace!

    When you need to rant...

    I'm also not a big fan of "My Bad" for people who can't bring themselves to say "I'm sorry".

    When you need to rant...

    I'm getting tired of the phrase "It is what it is". Sounds like lazy talk. Sounds like people resigning themselves to their fate. There are trolls on MC, people unemployed, nothing decent on tv, the country is going down the toilet, but hey...IT IS WHAT IT IS!!!!!!

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    One TLC show as repulsive as Honey Boo Boo... Extreme Cheapskates. I can admire people in this day and age who can be thrifty, make ends meet, and stretch a buck. Making sacrifices so your family can have a better life, kudos to you. But compromising your or your family's well-being by eating...

    Spammers at MC...

    If it really is Mike Bennedict (I remember his inappropriate behavior all too well) I believe he was from Chicago, if that helps give you any leads.

    Or maybe the whale from a real piece of 60's cheese, "Pinocchio In Outer Space".

    Songs You Can't Stand

    I never thought I'd actually feel nostalgic for the music videos of days gone by. Once in a blue moon MTV (Music To Vomit by) would show something with artistic merit (Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer", for instance). But by and large videos were conceived and executed not to create works of art...

    Funniest Wackiest Zaniest Sesame Sketches

    I can appreciate this one now. But I was in my single digits when this first aired back in Nineteen seventy something. And my reaction was, "Some poor kid's gonna be looking for his bike". This skit is easier to stomach now.:)

    When you need to rant...

    Birthdays are still nice (and I've had more than most of you). Birthday cakes are still nice. Even having people sing "Happy Birthday" is still nice(I'll waive the copyright fees). But the chant has got to go. You servers, go earn your tips. I've done your job, and I know time is money.

    When you need to rant...

    The Dreaded Birthday Chant. Go to any corporate restaurant chain you care to name, and inevitably the wait staff will crowd around someone's table, clap up a storm (encouraging you to join in) and rattle off some barely intelligible chant to wish you a Happy Birthday. Even the person whose...
