    Wabbit: The new Looney Tunes series

    I was on the fence about the addition of the Squeaks character from the announcement, but I'm delighted to see him work well with the show. Bigfoot, not so much, but Squeaks adds a certain caring friend element in Bugs, just like that aforementioned Pete the Puma cartoon. He kinda reminds me...

    The Muppets Episode 1 - Pig Girls Don't Cry (Pilot)

    Dinosaurs used the mild 2, D and H frequently, especially season 3 onward. And hilariously, I might add. D was uttered by the Dinosaur devil that Earl sold his soul to for that ugly collectible mug. But Dinosaurs had some rather subversive and adult themes to it despite Baby Sinclair...

    Anyone have any of the Looney Tunes Show songs? They're no longer available for purchase.

    Sesame Street's most disturbing bits

    Scary and disturbing, and I can't stress this enough, are different things. Scary is self explanatory. Things can scare you without being disturbing. Disturbing is deeper. That's when things can be creepy, sure, but are more unsettling and upsetting overtones, often in layered form...

    The Muppets Episode 1 - Pig Girls Don't Cry (Pilot)

    That's a sentiment that most of us share, anyway. Look at Dinosaurs. That had some pretty adult material and mild cussing, not to mention going on deep social issues. Dinosaurs even made fun of Scientology at one point, and as it was overlooked by a mass audience that thought it was a...

    Sesame Street shrinks to 30 minutes, new shows will premiere on HBO and PBS nine months later

    I've heard of kid's programming airing on HBO in the morning hours. But I have no doubt they'd show a lot of the series on Family in addition.

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    It's disappointing that the Rebels merch is being pushed to the side before its second season begins. I've noticed some Force Awakens brand merchandising has a couple characters from the show here and there. Hero Mashers has a Zeb and a Kanan in the line up at least. Disney had these nice...

    Wabbit: The new Looney Tunes series

    I hate their show promotion practices of showing promos of something for a week or less before something airs. Boomerang has been advertising Wabbit for over a month before its premiere, albeit cryptically. Yet, it hadn't advertised Be Cool Scooby-Doo which is getting promotion on CN for a...

    Old Nickelodeon

    I knew this would happen. Okay, turns out Splat isn't its own channel, it's just a late night programming block on Teen Nick that starts 2 hours earlier and ends 2 hours later. So all they're giving is 2 more hours, hopefully not all Time Shift Programming. Because The 90's block they have...

    The Muppets Episode 1 - Pig Girls Don't Cry (Pilot)

    SNL gets a ratings bump during political situations. Mainly because it's ...just not that funny anymore. The only really talented cast members are the black cast members (and Bobby), and they seem to use them in as little sketches as possible so we can have Cecilie Strong play the same unfunny...

    When you need to rant...

    That really sounds like some good old fashion medicine wagon style hogwash. Let's be honest here. There are all those little nickle and dime causes and solutions for weight gain, but the fact of the matter is it's all about poor diet and lack of exercise. And also, I'm sick of certain shows...

    The Muppets Episode 1 - Pig Girls Don't Cry (Pilot)

    The level of cussing is lower than a Season 1 Simpsons episode, and the sexual content is lower than a season 2. I've never had so much a problem with sex. My concern is more the hardcore violence. I dug Criminal Minds for a while, but then it started becoming Saw-like levels of gorn. Now, I...

    Rovio Is Teaming Up With Marvel To Create Angry Birds Movie

    Meh. It's an origin movie, because of course it is. And it seems they take the "angry" in Angry Birds a little too literally. Seeing these characters in action, I really wish they kept the original Veggitales aspect of the characters. Other than that, you'd almost not pick up on the fact...

    Wabbit: The new Looney Tunes series

    I like that they have different series of Bugs cartoons, similar to there were different Tom and Jerry set ups (the home, the lab, and the witches) in their new show. But yeah, the Bigfoot ones aren't that strong. While I do like the idea of showing Bugs being vulnerable and frustrated instead...

    Steven Colbert to replace David Letterman in 2015

    I haven't seen an episode, but I'm actually glad to see he's probably keeping up his usual schtick. And let's face it. Everyone's going to do politics because it's just so freaking poisonous now. Some of that becomes ranty because of the level of bile. I never thought that Bush years Family...

    Wabbit: The new Looney Tunes series

    We got some classic Bugs Bunny at his Bugs Bunniest in the baseball and Leprechaun episodes today. Loved him screwing with the baseball star and getting him to sign a trade agreement. Also, Bugs pulling his classic annoyance routine to keep his foot in the second one. Bugs has become more...

    The Muppets Episode 1 - Pig Girls Don't Cry (Pilot)

    Just had a thought. Don't know if this was intentional, but Elizabeth Banks did have a memorable but short stint on 30 Rock as Jack Donaghy's girlfriend. Really seems that she makes that connection here as the show is very much similar to 30 Rock anyway.

    Happy Birthday to ALL!

    Actually, my favorite was always the Mudka's Meat Hut birthday greeting from Emperor's New Groove. And I'm not kidding on this one, but I actually witness an actual real life restaurant that actually performed it once. Oddly, I can't remember exactly which one (and it wasn't that long ago, so...

    Happy Birthday to ALL!

    The fact this even had a copyright on it is ridiculous. It's a song that literally takes 10 seconds at most to sing. They only got it through dumb means and held the heck onto it for the money it gets from royalties from TV shows. If anything we're losing one thing here. The passive...
