    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Probably is, but stylistically, the humor and staging were almost entirely identical to Happy Endings, only not as funny, and without the AWESOME sloppy, slovenly gay anti-stereotype character. It really sucks because Happy was the superior show and ABC tossed it off. Not even getting a cable...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    The Inside Out thing looks like one of their teasers. Wonder why they didn't just make a short film like they usually do. It has potential to be sure. I'm much less confident in Good Dinosaur. It's probably best it kept its distance from the other Dinosaur themed movies. That cheap cash in...

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    I almost wish his sitcom was renewed. Bad enough he had a bad show to begin with, now he ruins a perfectly good series? Even if I liked him, and to be fair, when he's playing a brain in a jar he's not bad (and YES, he did so twice), the show's humor does not mesh with camp gay stereotypes from...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    There's so much lost in translation from physical to download and streaming. You lose a lot of cool stores that way, for one. It's bad enough that the music all sounds the same. Must the videos look all the same (and boring) as well? Anyway, I could pick on top 40 stuff old and new... but if...

    The Sonic Boom Thread

    I'm excited that the toyline has the first available Cubot and Orbot figures. Glad to hear they're part of the show too. I just have to wait for eh...somewhere to watch it.

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Well, the chickflick stuff would have come much sooner since 90 minutes vs 13 or so episodes at 22 minutes each. Now, I haven't been watching The Millers since it's opposite Gotham, but they added Sean Hayes to the show. Say what?! They took a perfectly funny program and added a hammy gay...

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Even if the show was good, the concept is unsustainable. They did curse it with that idiotic title, making it come off as some fifty year old who just discovered a fad that's run dry as it's on the downslide. Might as well called the show "Hashtag Selfie" while they were at it. But on the...

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Fox really doesn't have anything besides Simpsons, Family Guy, Gordon Ramsey and American Idol (which should have died years ago). Glad to see that Gotham might finish the season with a decent episode count. I actually can't stand New Girl since it's basically a less good ripoff of a show on...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    There's really no point in making music videos anymore if everyone's just downloading songs vs buying albums. That's why MTV turned into crappy reality shows. There's no point in marketing anything that can't be sold. And the ones that pop up on Youtube (the only place to see them) have like...

    Over the Garden Wall impressions

    I'm trying to see if I liked that twist or not. Seems that it has one of those... ...it was all a dream, or was it type endings that leaves it ambiguous. I dig it and all, and it is impossible that both Wirt and his brother had the same exact dream.

    The Steven Universe thread

    I sort of like how mundane and anti-climactic the reveal was. I also like how it's obvious that all three together have such clashing personalities that they can't even hold the fusion together correctly until Steve was in trouble.

    Songs You Can't Stand

    There's a reason. Cracked broke it down essentially like this... Music videos were designed to sell albums. No one buys albums anymore, there's no point to them, they only get exposure on Youtube, and to make their budget, they resort to product placement. Not to mention that most are done on...

    New Pixar Movie Previews

    That's not that point I'm making. Madagascar 3 nicely closed out the franchise, and it made a crapload of money. If they get desperate enough they'd consider, but I think the actual film makers had enough sway to say they're going to end it on a high note. And frankly, they've done the right...

    New Pixar Movie Previews

    You actually see less and less of Shrek since the last movie. He's still a staple franchise of Dreamworks, but they haven't really used the character for much more than some merchandising. Like that Dreamworks Kid's Tablet. Actually, that's the first I've seen him outside of a Wendy's Kid's...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I'd love to see them make some animated Marvel movies that aren't DTV. But such as the case, this was always going to be handled as a separate thing from Marvel. I really wish Disney revealed plans for future non-Pixar films. They've really come into their own after Chicken Little. Though I...

    Most Obnoxious Fandoms

    It's things like that which make me leery of fanbases completely. Heck, the more vitriolic or weird parts of their fanbase kinda make me squeamish to even watch the cartoon (in a purely Junkion "I'll watch anything" sort of way"), and then when I get a really good episode, I'm absorbed and...

    Most Obnoxious Fandoms

    That's...weird right there. Then again, I kinda experienced those kinds of people favoring things of mine that had them in there, which is part of the reason I stopped looking at pages of those who Favorited my stuff. That and the aforementioned Jungle Book Girl piece. I've seen ahem...that...

    Funniest Wackiest Zaniest Sesame Sketches

    How about the one where Telly was at the library doing a report with another reporter who was "AT THE AIRPORT!!!!!!" And the kid at the end makes faces and jumps around in the background?

    Over the Garden Wall impressions

    You know something? I've seen a lot of cartoons attempt stylistic parodies of 1930's/early 40's cartoons, but I have never seen anyone completely nail the look until the dream episode of this series. It managed to capture the elusive substantial essence of Windsor McCay, Fleischers, and Harmon...

    Most Obnoxious Fandoms

    Yeah... almost every fanbase has that. Sonic beat out the Bronies a looooooong time ago. Then of course there's the Rescue Rangers fanbase (that probably loved that Robot Chicken Sketch), and fans of Cleo from Heathcliff... dear GOLB, Cleo from Heathcliff. But you're right. Five Nights at...
