    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4524 - Abby Schools in Cool

    I'm mixed by the results. Somehow, I think they could have kept the original tune and the puppet wasn't quite as impressive as the original animation. I kinda see why they'd go with a younger, hipper sounding version of the song with a kid (even though it makes the love interest theme of the...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    What's with all these films with the words "Age of" in the title. Age of Ultron, Age of Extinction... now that?

    Aveggies: Age of Bonbon

    I'd say Star Smores and Aveggies are two of the best Crumby Pictures they have to offer. The Harry Potter one had some nice background references in it, but it's disappointing they went with a sorting game instead of ..well...anything relative to the movies. Aveggies, even though it's the last...

    Harvey Beaks: New Nick series

    Arrrg! I missed them all last night. I know where to catch up with everything, but Sanjay and Craig. But I enjoyed Daid (or however it's spelled) and his family in the Nightclub episode are portrayed as the religious activist zealots (and they're just one family like a certain group). The...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    My supposed Blue State doesn't have kids pledge months anymore. Oh, but you better believe we have pledge months up the wazoo for the adult line up. And , as I've moaned about in the past, it's turned into lame concerts and self help infomercials.m Not even rerunning Downton Abby, and you'd...

    Aveggies: Age of Bonbon

    So, apparently SW didn't want to wait to premiere this on the next episode and leaked it online. Okay, sure... they produced this before the movie came out (well before it) and it's more of a parody of the last film. But overall, another great Crumby Pictures. Cookie of course has to be The...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4524 - Abby Schools in Cool

    This is another episode where one character really sold it. Telly's frantic desire to be cool was once again, hilariously his best. While I never make the case for less characters in a Street Story, I think this would have been a lot better if it was just Abby calmly ignoring the website and...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    They were very loose with the regulations back then and syndicated channels tried to make sitcom reruns TV E/I. And not even stuff like Saved By The Bell, either. But someone put their foot down and the slippery slide to bad nature shows from the 90's and career oriented garbage at 5 AM...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    And that doesn't surprise me a single bit. PBS needs money, but instead of holding pledges for kid's programming, they're pulling the same cynical techniques all the big entertainment companies are doing. It's not like they haven't pulled this sort of thing before. I went nuts looking for a...

    No More 2D Animated Films At Disney

    To paraphrase from Harvey Beaks... Is Steampunk Cool? No it isn't. ;) But a 2-D animated short about it is.

    New Muppet Pilot in Development by Randall Einhorn (The Office, Modern Family) for ABC

    My belief is that they had every intention to make that movie, but Segal had that script finished first and they decided to go with that one. Whatever anyone can say about TM, that was the right film to kick the franchise back off. 90 minutes devoted to a gag that could go stale in the first...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    Don't get me started on how American candy companies. It's all about the main lines and limited time only tie ins connected to those lines. Asia has like hundreds of flavors of Kit Kats. Guess how many we get? That one original flavor. Maybe white and dark come back for periods of time, but...

    New Muppet Pilot in Development by Randall Einhorn (The Office, Modern Family) for ABC

    Mainly because that wasn't the same film as The Muppets. Remember, Jason's original title was something to the extent of "The Greatest Muppet Movie of All Time Ever" or something like that. The obvious thing being that it wasn't (The first three kinda beat it to the punch), but boastful titles...

    DUDE! That Windblade I mentioned beofre is going to be in Robots in Disguise. Now I have a voice to match to that hot bot. ...I need help.

    Disney Princesses

    That's why Pinkie Pie is beloved, even by guys. She's like the kid friendly, non-murderous, female version of Deadpool. I'm tired of the all men are Homer Simpson, all women are Wonder Woman thing. Being goofy, wacky, or extremely light hearted isn't a sign of weakness or a horrible...

    Cartoon all stars to the rescue.

    I'm going to get royally reamed for this, but... While I don't have a problem with educating kids about the dangers of drugs, that's just it. We need to educate kids about the dangers of drugs, and Dare really didn't do that, at least effectively. You have tall tales that initially scare...

    New Muppet Pilot in Development by Randall Einhorn (The Office, Modern Family) for ABC

    I honestly am mixed on theme songs and all, but I really think the advertisers are the ones that should shoulder the blame on this one. Look at Gumball. it has a 20 second opening (5 seconds of it are title screen) and even those 15 seconds are considered too much so they can shove like one...
