Well, considering I invested 24 big ones (not counting the better done side stories) on IDW's first CN crossover and was hugely disappointed in it, I'm trying to see the awful in this. I mean, it wasn't bad, but the writers were barely familiar with the characters. Except for the Eds. It was...

Here's a trend that really ticks me off. Political scare tactic based ads for scam debt consolidation services. Bad enough we had scare tactics to drive morons into gold based scams, but really!?! So this commercial I just watched that almost made me punch a hole in the wall started off with...

While every episode has it's own thread to discuss and as the season is over, how about a conversation on the season in general? Ovarall, I thought this was a decent season. It had some strong street stories, but more than it's fair share of meh ones. I'll break it down this way: The Good...

You know this member posted this skit in like 4 other threads too, right? That's "Birthday Emotions" level of obsessiveness.

To be honest, I don't really have a huge handle on that musical other than the basic gist of the storyline and like one or two songs. Neither of which were attempted. I expected Telly to break down into a "Gotta Find my Corner of the Sky" parody after being disappointed by seeing mundane...

Guess everyone's waiting for Jurassic World. San Andreas sounds like it fell sharply, and haw haw to Insidious. Between that and the failure of the awful looking Poltergeist remake, I'm hoping that there are some dead horse tropes (no pun intended) in these horror movies that will finally get...

Is it just me or was the street story like 5 minutes long? And uneventful? And kinda boring except for the bit with the crazy cat lady? And how the heck was it a parody of Pippin? Like, they used one song parody that they kept singing through the whole episode? That's not a parody of a...

Muppet items tend to vary depending on the venue. It's like some Hallmark ornaments sell out by Thanksgiving, some are left on clearance (but only Fozzie and Gonzo I've seen... Statler and Waldorf, Kermit, and the Chef sold like crazy). Plush disappeared off of Disney Store shelves except for...

I give them a lot of respect for the pageant episode. Insofar as having Muffy say something slightly nasty about Lydia being in a wheelchair, but feeling bad for it. I hate when kid's TV shows walk on eggshells about characters with disabilities, and having Muffy come to such a nasty...

Blame PBS for that. I'm sure if they still had other parody segments, PBS would bully them into shoving an episode at a later date as well. They did the same to Arthur, witholding a single episode of which should have aired in September because it was a Downton Abbey parody. PBS is really...

Cult movies have quicker turn around for some reason. Used to be years before an underrated film gained a cult following. Most of the oh so greatest films of all time were flops that gained respect (though in the case of Citizen Kane, it was a smear campaign by the Yellow Journalist mogul they...

So... you didn't get the joke from 2 and a Half Men when Charlie played the theme song to a confused Jake? Yeah. Chuck did some cartoon music and writing. I think he also did Toxic Crusaders music as well (same production company). Personally, I'm a bigger fan of Shuki Levy, but Chuck's TMNT...

They have a look of local stage production of a Sesame Street live knockoff. Puppetwise, the blue headed Beau knockoff doesn't look unprofessional. Weird and creepy. Not as badly put together as the yellow Tony (the I'm Between" guy on Sesame Street) looking knockoff. His nose was just...

And what about the blue guy with the extremely flat horizontal head? While these aren't the worst put together of the bunch, there's something completely wrong about them, design wise. But at least they aren't ventriloquist dummies.

WOW. I know these things are bad, but this one even manages to ripoff actual Muppet characters. Monster that talks like Cookie Monster? check. But the surprise is the actual theft of Beauregard's voice and personality. Here's another clip... ehh... it's not horrible horrible (at least it...

Forget AVGN's R-Zone review. This guy (same guy as above and the Pac-Man 2 review) can't even review the product without going compeletly insane. Ah, good ol' Classic Game Room. It's always fun when he actually hates a game. Only time I ever seen him do an earnest review of a bad game was...

This thread is a couple years old now. I guess that essentially proves that this wasn't successful. Fraggle Rock's inaccessibility coupled with the high end-ness of this product were obviously their undoing. I could see this doing modestly well if a Sesame Street or Muppet Show license, but...

Well, it essentially was just slap bass over a beat. They just seemed to use variations of that most of the time. I don't think they'd bother with a huge orchestra for a series like that. it's supposed to sound minimal. Easier to dub, I guess. Probably similar to some of the American anime...

Now that I think about it, wouldn't that work great with a Gorg?

Wondering why Jerry didn't do one before he passed. I do know he was in one episode of Sheep in the Big City, along with several other Sesame Street puppeteers. You know, because SITBC was created by a former writer and animator for Sesame. Seems that giving Frank a character in Monsters Inc...
