    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    ... And cost twice as much! :D The Minimates sound pretty good, even though I'm not the hugest fan of those things, but I'm going to bow out of the 25 dollar action figures. I can get a decent sized Transformer for that much. And I hear they're releasing Cyclonus again.

    SNL 40 Year Reunion

    Well, Kenan did have a history of impersonating him, since he did that on All That. Heck, he was even Fat Albert in a movie. I'm disappointed they cut his Bill Cosby impersonation short. I did like the Celebrity Jeopardy they had, but it felt short by a minute or two. And I kinda wish Kenan...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    Actually, the song that's really gotten to me lately is that thing about how It's a quarter after one and someone's a little drunk... THAT'S supposed to sound romantic?! That sounds like it's a line that belongs in a Jerry Springer episode. Jeez, has the whole genre been corrupted or...

    The Big Bang Theory: Howard's Mom Died…

    Personally, I think that was the best thing they did with the show. It gave the characters more purpose and depth beyond the "socially awkward guys who like non-adult things" jokes they kept beating like a dead horse. It's actually become a better show the more it progressed. Sheldon has...

    Disney Princesses

    Well, Cracked was the hit or miss crummy Mad Magazine knockoff back in the day. I can't remember the exact quote about Aladdin. It was on the back of a similar wanted poster for Either Tiny Toons ("midnight rumbles with the Muppet Babies") or Darkwing Duck ("Copyright infringement of Daffy...

    Funko to release Sesame Street toys

    This toyfair article has some of the prototypes. Looking good so far. Shame they're not slated until fall or late summer at the earliest. I like how Ernie and Bert look like they come with figure bases like Manolo from Book of Life (got that one cheap yesterday). Yeah, weird that Zoidberg's...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    I hate how out of context that one was used. In the movie, it was played in the background of Gru's party for his adoptive daughters. Crowning moment of heartwarming stuff right there. But then the media got a hold of it, and they ruined it. If Despicable Me 2 wasn't extremely popular, I'm...

    Disney Princesses

    You didn't hear about that stuff, but crap like that happened. We had that kind of religious terrorism since the 80's, the media just wasn't all over it. I do remember a not so funny gag in Cracked magazine about Aladdin having a wanted poster for carpet bombings. I'm surprised they even got...

    The Big Bang Theory: Howard's Mom Died…

    Well, there are always three options when something like this happens. replace the actor/actress, which rarely works on live action TV. But in this case, we never see the mother, so they very well could have done that. write the character off without killing them kill the character off. I...

    Disney Princesses

    I agree, yet with the caveat that more tolerant people will overshadow the intolerant. Some of us still remember the Southern Baptist Disney Boycot of the 90's. I can see the detraction already: "Disney using princesses to push gay agenda." It's a matter of Disney doing something bold and...

    Is there a reason why Disney dislikes releasing Muppet DVD's?

    If I could list all the Disney related things not at the Disney store or cleared out of the Disney Store, Muppets would only be one of them. Heck, they're clearing out the Guardians of the Galaxy merchandise and that was the biggest movie hit of the year! And NONE of it was Disney Store...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4520 - Bert's Sign Painting Challenge

    And it's not like we've seen much of his other characters before he left, either.

    Disney Princesses

    I think that it's a skill that more writers are getting hip to. Just no cartoonishly Jar Jar Binks style garbage from the Will and Grace people. I just love how their last sitcom that used the same stereotypes and style of writing went over like a lead balloon. Seems at least viewers are...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4520 - Bert's Sign Painting Challenge

    It sure was. Always great to see Bert get his own street story. Proving you can indeed have the character of Bert without Ernie. Also like seeing that guy who did the voice of Olaf the Snowman play Vincent VanStop and all those VanStop merchandising tie ins ("He really knows how to market...

    Disney Princesses

    I am still baffled as to why a bunch of Sailor Moon fangirls thought they could get away with a Lesbian Couple in an American dub in the 90's, when even Liberals weren't that accepting of gay couples. Heck, the dub (unless I got the timing wrong) would have had them before Ellen came out on her...

    The Steven Universe thread

    I don't know where to put this, but Steven Universe, Clarence, Uncle Grandpa, as well as staples like Gumball, Adventure Time, Teen Titans Go (of course), and Regular Show have been renewed up until 2016. But the biggest news of all, an Uncle Grandpa/Steven Universe crossover. Now, how the...

    Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero impressions

    It was pretty good. I like how his friends are Pizza Steve and Miko. Really... she even looks and acts like Miko. The premise reminds me of Walter Melon, but without the parody hook. I really like how the animation turned out. The textures really give the show a pop and a unique look.

    International Sesame Street Question

    Man. Remember when TV special retrospectives had those clips of international dubs to show how relevant they are in other countries? And remember how they were always dark, grainy, and low quality? No wonder why international dubbing bugged me at a certain age. I certainly remember the...

    Getting episodes directly from Sesame Workshop

    You know, I remember when I used to frequent a M.U.S.C.L.E./retro toy collecting forum, the site owner was trying to put on an 80's Toy collecting convention with emphasis on M.U.S.C.L.E., and somehow he was able to broker a deal with 4Kids to lend him some copies of the upcoming, yet unaired...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    OH... and also, the Narm of one song particularly gets to me. I forget what it's called, but it has the lyric of "You're gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul." Everytime I hear that, my mind directly goes to Babs Bunny going "Heavy! Like my soul" from that episode of Tiny Toons...
