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

    DAAAAAANNNG, yo! I was afraid Scream Queens and Redundant Terrorist Fighting Formula that only old people like would crush it in the ratings. Still..The Voice?! ehh.

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

    I feels shows that start their strongest will usually flounder in further episodes trying to capture what made the first episodes work. Some shows start slow and get better as they go on, but other shows that start strong (cough cough Heroes) just can't maintain. I'd say The Muppets is off to...

    Major Changes in store for Sesame Street Season 46

    Footage of that actually popped up a while back. Eric sounds very close for the most part. I wouldn't have noticed if it wasn't outright stated.

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

    I really think they set some great stuff up here. Kermit and Piggy subtly hinted at not being over each other, the mockumentary format seems to be lightly mocking itself, Gonzo being a terrible writer (his "Dancing with the Czars" bit seems to be a slight stab at some of the skits that fell...

    When you need to rant...

    Yeah, but that kinda dries you out after a while. Can't tell you how many times I drank the stuff and like a minute later I was thirstier than when I started.

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    I have to say I'm concerned that most Non-Force Awakens merchandise has been shooed out of stores so soon, especially Rebels merchandising (the show didn't start the second season yet). And the fact the merchandise came out a good 3 months before the movie hits theaters to boot. Especially...

    Wabbit: The new Looney Tunes series

    Have to admit, I like how the first 2 episodes each featured Yosemite Sam. He's always been one of my favorite antagonists. Fudd's funny and a great character and all, but I do kinda agree a little with Friz Freling on him. He's not really evil, and it's more about self preservation for Bugs...

    ABC Orders Muppet Pilot To Series!

    Yeah, but the usual staff writers didn't exactly give us gold recently either. The kinda alright I guess Muppet segments from the Gaga special were done by regulars. What made the two last movies work was that outside writing staff exactly. Otherwise, we'd get a stale stream of gimmick based...

    Sesame Street will continue to air on re-branded Sprout Channel

    It's not technically leaving PBS. Reruns will still be rerun, and they'll be able to rerun the new episodes almost a year later. Kinda sucky, but Sesame isn't going anywhere. HBO probably saved them at any rate. But this Sprout thing sounds like it's sweeping changes, not just singling out...

    One Million Moms after ABC's "The Muppets"

    Like I said in another thread, don't sweat this. One Million Moms (an organization that has neither of those things) is just a theocratic hate group that attacks anything with the whiff of a gay character because JEEZAWWZ and BAH-BUHL! These are the same nuts that went after Archie for adding...

    The new Inspector Gadget series

    Second season of the show or second season on Netflix? Because I checked it out and apparently season 2 is already on there. Unless that's what they're calling season 2, which is most likely. I'm glad that Gadget finally got the revival he deserves. 80's cartoons are on their third revival...

    When you need to rant...

    Fruit supplies its own sugar. I remember a short lived fad in the very early 90's of fruit sweetened "diet" foods. It was essentially just fruit sugars, and that's the same as regular sugars. Apple juice is usually added to things to sweeten them, and often used as a filler in mixed juices...

    Wabbit: The new Looney Tunes series

    Is it just me, or could that Bigfoot episode be any more of a pilot? I agree that the Bigfoot episode was the weakest of the episodes, and it really seems that he's going to be a recurring character to boot. Though if there's one thing I actually liked, it was that out of the four other...

    When you need to rant...

    They'll find something wrong with that too. All I know is the smug ultravegan milk truthers just got some sort of pleasure (and we all know which one, though I can't say here) with the actual results. I swear, most of them had to be kids who were all ticked off that mommy and daddy wouldn't...

    It's pretty clear that humans aren't meant to consume anything at this point. But then of course, you'd die of malnutrition.

    Muppet Babies started a trend

    Oddly, Pup is one of my top favorite renditions of the character. That and Mystery Inc. While Scooby was on when I was a kid in syndication, I think Pup was my first major introduction to the character. Even managed to be an early self-parody of the show, and I swear whoever wrote the live...

    The "I'm amazed at how terrible this is" thread

    The cassette slip sloppy pre-photoshop "artwork" suggests that one of my favorite animes is also massacred in this collection. While I don't know if it's the same cover album as the other YTpage has, I did find a cover of the opening to Dr. Slump once. It's actually decent, and therefore not...

    The "I'm amazed at how terrible this is" thread

    I was going to wait to see if someone found something else, but this was just prime awful and I had to add to the "bad covers of anime theme songs from cheapo cassette tapes" entry I put in there. And to be completely fair this time, I found something that even I don't know about. For...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Ehhhh... I let that one slide. It's pretty obvious they're trying to be all Dr. Seuss-y here and sort of succeeding. But I do agree that it would otherwise be strange, it all feels like it is for the sake of the rhyme scheme. The fact it's brought up as a find a word raises my eyebrows. And...
