By all means Bert would work beautifully as a game show contestant in one of the old Guy Smiley skits. But why it's surprising is that, well, the pairing of these two has never happened before in the 45 years both characters have been active. And no the "Matching Game" drawing doesn't count...

The problem is that big orchestras are expensive. Warner Bros Animation had one heck of a budget to have fully orchestrated music for the likes of Tiny Toons and Batman TAS. I even recalled hearing a commentary on a Batman TAS DVD about how some I can't recall who missed that luxury. And...

I think it goes beyond that. It's not like the double standard of "Stop treating women as sex objects, but ooooh! Sequel to Magic Mike coming out!" it's more like "let's find fault in things that are relatively harmless yet ignore something serious." We have a culture of young people who are...

That's a weird example, but sort of what they did with Jenna. Stinks they couldn't just make her shy. That would have worked much better and been a nice little in joke to why she was never featured in am episode ever. Eh, but whatever. It's not an unforeseen affliction that derails a...

I'll admit I'm actually kinda mixed on the subject, but pretty much agree right there. Kids pretty much wouldn't care about the classic skits because they don't know of them unless they're shown them. On the other hand, I don't think some skits would be as jarring as SW believes they would be...

Probably is. My point is still this: How the heck come when a guy writes to the best of his ability a strong, layered female character and manages to get some minutia wrong especially if it's incredibly subjective there's a call to arms, yet if a woman writes a horrible female character...

Tech repair does sound like a good concept, though most of those who can afford the latest whatever when it comes out are prone to throwing stuff away anyway. It's a bike shop now, which makes sense considering the healthy life style portions of the show. Other than that, it seems they're...

Yeah... this!?! I don't get it either. Don't know what CTW was thinking back then thinking that was kid friendly. The dead silence in the skit really sells the nightmarish quality.

I don't horribly mind Jenna that much, other than her questionable human noses design. I really did like her "Arthur Affliction" episode, especially the delightfully immature humor. "The bladder has a wee leak. It needs to be fixed with a wee patch." And the one where Francine passive...

Thanks for reminding me about that. :D Yeah, I'm usually not up for snarkysnarky snark snark stuff (maybe because everyone thinks they can do it well, and they don't), but they really nailed something that deserved it. So to add to the rantiness of this thread, how the heck come there's even...

It was pretty alright for a Titans act like morons over something for 10 minutes episode. And like I said before a hundred times, sure the writers love that kind of episode (and next episode seems to be yet another one as well), but episodes where they do something and make fun of their own...

They clearly had a "we didn't know if we got renewed" (spoiler: they did) attitude with the show, yet were hopeful enough to include a nice cliffhanger. Unlike a certain musical show that left too much up to a cliffhanger, it wasn't something make or break for the series. While it would have...

:rolleyes: Gonzo wasn't the focus of 2 movies after being the focus of 3 and a special. Not really grounds for being Mildred Huxtettered out of the franchise. If he's a huge focus in internet videos, that seems to set the stage for him having his normal amount of screen time elsewhere.

There's going to be another collection of specials of Emmy Winning or nominated variety. Now, of note, these 11 specials include "She's a Good Skate," the special with the distinction of having adults talk and being voiced by Marcia Wallace to boot (hopefully in the full, original version, and...

Anyone get the feeling that May is a little more relaxed than last year? There are 3 Blockbuster type films coming out. Mad Max and Tomorrowland being 2 of them (I don't see Mad Max being that successful, I'd be surprised if it was). It doesn't have the urgency of last year's Spider-Man...

Because "Bet on Your Baby" was... Okay. I can't even make a joke about that. They greenlit that awful thing, they can't make it not happen, whatever excuse they can pull out of their butts for not picking the Muppets up will be complete bullcrap because they freaking picked that piece of...

That really seemed to be a problem with the 90's. And sometimes, no matter how hard anyone tried it still sounded flat. That's what happens when you're technologically between 1980's zeerust synth sound and 00's not perfect, but less artificial sounding synth. You get that, what I like to...

Well, I don't know if television animation (even though it's for the internet) really counts. I'm sure they outsourced to Korea for Toonsylvania back in the day. Turbo FAST seems to be in a different class from Penguins of Madagascar, Legends of Awesomness and Dragon Riders of Berk, and the...

Delightful torture style irony. All that Arthur episode got going for it was David Read's Bob Newhart-esque one sided phone conversation. I really don't get CN's "remove a show from the rotation for a few months only to run a full week of them while removing another show," model. The only...

Shaming is better and more effective than an outright ban. Still, I have to wonder... if corn was supposed to make everything that much cheaper, why didn't they take into consideration that a drought causing a corn shortage could happen? It got so bad that they couldn't even feed livestock...
