    Girl Meets World Officially Picked Up

    If there's a current Disney show where Will Freidle really shines, it's when he played the Merc with a Mouth on Ultimate Spider-Man.

    Galavant "Thoughts"

    Seems this show is destined to be a one season thing. They're just dumping it together as a 6 week event as a midseason break for Once Upon a Tweenagers Fan Fic. Weird Al's in an episode. Excellent. Too bad it's opposite Simpsons and Brooklyn 99.

    New VeggieTales series "In the House" coming to Netflix Nov. 26, 2014

    I agree fully. Too much childhood ownership, and no matter what you do, someone's going to have a bee in their butt about it. And I'll agree that there are some times the product does suck (cough cough George of the Jungle), but not always. Otherwise, we'd have nothing but 1960's camp style...

    Regular Show Series Talkback!

    Seems Rigby is starting to warm up considerably to having a girlfriend. If he seemed a might reluctant about the mistletoe, he certainly wrapped her present with gusto. Rigby is far less mature than Mordecai is, and I'm guessing that's why they aren't officially a couple yet. But it will...

    The Most Annoying Kids Shows

    Oh, I get what you're saying now. Yeah, the loads and loads of characters really made things tough. If a writer had a small pool of signature characters, the episodes were much stronger. That's the best thing about RB, 4 main robots, detailed useful humans. All with nice, defined...

    The Most Annoying Kids Shows

    Especially with David Wise who tended to reuse plotlines for He-Man, Transformers and TMNT. Also known as Day of the Machines, Kremzeek!, and The Big Zapp Attack, respectively. But yeah. There's a difference between writing a year's worth of 13 episodes or having to cram in 65 episodes. it's...

    The Most Annoying Kids Shows

    The problem with G1 is what I call 1980's cartoon syndrome. It had some great episodes (some of the best ones were written by someone who HATED writing for the series), and then it had the other episodes that were written rushed to fill out the 65 episode requirements. Same problem I have with...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    That would have been an awesome movie, but it seems pretty dark. Like a dark parody of the original films. Like the bit in Spy Hard (or Robot Chicken, which did something similar), but played much, much darker. Like almost Venture Bros levels of dark, deconstructiveness. While I take back...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Considering it made a decent amount of money and manages to keep in the top 5 even a month after its release, I really hope that's enough to keep the BH6 machine going. The last thing any Disney fan wants to see is that taking a back seat to a lesser film franchise like Planes. I just wish the...

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    So... anyone bother with the Grumpy Cat movie? I sure as heck didn't, but I read the TV Tropes page about it. Seems like this film is right up Tim Hill's alley, since it's all about some stupid crap that happens to the human characters who shouldn't be the focus of the movie, but are, and...

    Muppet Candy Claydough Ornaments

    Oh yeah. I got the entire collection way back when the candy was actually edible. Indeed the set was Fozzie, Kermit, Animal, and Beaker. But seriously. if you manage to get one of these, the candy's like well over 10 years old. for the love of all that is holy, keep it in the container or...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Will's great in certain movies, like The Good Guys and Zoolander. Certain ones he just seems overused and unfunny, like that Land of the Lost ...well... I can't even call it a remake since it was more of a lame self parody than anything. I just never cared much for Elf, but gave it a few...

    The Most Annoying Kids Shows

    I'm actually glad that kid's programming is getting good and far less annoying that it was just a few years back. There's nothing I could add on the list, much as I could try... except I caught some of Team Umizumi (or whatever). I hate the fake Japanese sounding name, but they essentially...

    Does Sesame Street still air classic segments?

    I.... never said that we were. I didn't think anyone even knew about it. But whatever the reason, we've seen it, we've got it, we didn't need to sit through Blogg making the giant dinosaur out of macaroni for... well at this point, even Count VonCount would lose count. And even if they did...

    Uncle Grandpa

    The Christmas Special was good, but I kinda wish the bit where UG has to fill in for Santa was a bit longer, and it had more tension with the two brothers. I've been checking out the comic book as well. I quite enjoy the multiple art styles and story telling used, and the inconsistency of GRFT...

    Does Sesame Street still air classic segments?

    Yeah, but here's the thing... does anyone even bother watching that much television anymore? I do not see why Sesame Street not airing classic segments is a big deal, or a deal of any size if you can find quite a bit online. Season one skits which we thought were gone forever just surfaced...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    You could really tell this was written by a Simpsons writer. It was pretty sharp stuff, and leaps and bounds over the batch of weaker, forgettable Christmas specials that have been churned out recently. I love how they went for character depth and wit instead of treacle and cliches. And yes...
