    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4508 - Ernie’s Dance Video

    Billy is nothing more than a fill in for Steve. He hasn't officially retired from the role, and the season was taped in between reshoots of MMW and promotions for the same film. I'm sure he was just unavailable, and something tells me they did try to get him to dub his voice over in Bert's...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Is it just me, or does every family film lately make around 17 mil? Shame Book of Life didn't get a wider audience. I swear, that movie was Reel FX's apology for that horrible Turkey film. Sure, it was no Boxtrolls, but it was quite good. Supposedly there were El Tigre characters in it, but...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    The main characters are covered in a layer of fur... don't see how that would play out much. If there's anything I'd personally like to see, it's more continuity with D.W. outgrowing Nadine. It's a very powerful concept, but it seems that it barely went anywhere and was only hinted at in one...

    The Clarence thread

    That was one of the best parodies of Charlie Brown I've ever seen. Clarence's optimism and outgoing personality taken to the extreme is the antithesis of Charlie Brown's inward, unwilling, neurotic personality. The clash of the opposing humors made this an excellent episode.

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    The Breadwinners theme song. Say what you will about the show, they certainly didn't skimp on the opening title music.

    When you need to rant...

    Saturday Mornings are what I'm complaining about. The small amount of cartoons we are seeing right now are actually quite high quality, contrary to what nostalgia fans would have you believe. Continuity, more grown up themes (not adult themes, but more mature, heavy things)... stuff like that...

    When you need to rant...

    The early 60's was when Saturday Mornings started. And frankly, we had some awesome stuff back then. We had competing shows that just showed Looney Tunes. Then the super hero action shows of the late sixties caused Action for Irate Grownups to happen, leaving us with (shudder) the cartoons of...

    When you need to rant...

    Anyone else wanna punch the TV every time some idiot says something about the Ebola "outbreak?" Freaking thing has been around for almost 2 months now, and if it was spreading as fast as the complete d-bags on cable news (all of them, left and right) said it is, we would have all gotten it by...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    Big hit doesn't bother me half as much as Binky's Music Madness. That episode pretty much gets away with one of the worst abuses of "the Complainer is always Wrong" I've seen since The Bisketts. I rewatched it, and it made me even more annoyed than I did at first. To wit- While Francine...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Like I said, hipsters probably turned on him because they got sick of his humor or he was in that one thing they didn't like and he's dead to them forever. And the family values crowd hates him because he's a legitimate adult's comedian and genuine adult comedian entertainers should never do...

    Cookie Monster special in the works

    Again, that goes into that old rant about PBS refusing to show quality Pledge Month programing that favors the whole family and not just old people so they can get put in their will. You's think that was a joke, but they actually did advertise that someone did something like that. Anyway, I...

    Even More Muppet Hot wheels.

    Hot Wheels has never done that with plastic figures inside, with a couple exceptions on bigger lines (such as the Monster Jam line). Even then, they're basically small, removable figures. I believe some companies still put things like that out. There's a series of Disney based vehicles that I...

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    I tried talking about this in another thread, but I think it's more suitable here. Who are they trying to fool exactly with the Ouijia movie? It looks too sincere to be campy and too ridiculous to be sincere. Seems like there was an opportunity to actually make something tongue in cheek, but...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Wow. I've never seen them, but I heard tell that UK English Translations were done, they were probably imported. Still, interest in the characters via the movies were the reason we got them currently. And on another note, the two specials they made after the movie are far superior to what...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I agree that you have to like what you like. While it is worth it indeed to like something more obscure and without much of a following, it sucks that it's hard to find others to talk about it with and even suckier that there's less of a market for it than some movie/TV show/whatever who's...

    Even More Muppet Hot wheels.

    They seem to be part of the overall, more generic pop culture line. It's a shame they don't make more of the special shaped series for anything else. I've noticed HW does two lines, one based on cars/vehicles that have been features on said movie/series and more generic cars with characters...

    Frute Brute and Yummy Mummy coming back

    I'm going to add this. Yeah, Hostess was rescued from the destruction at the hands of the big greedy morons who ran the company. You could at least release some friggin Scary Cakes again.

    Build Your Own 90s TGIF Sitcom

    What? No quirky, high concept series that got cancelled like 3 weeks in? Where's my Teen Angel? :crazy: Nah, I'm just gonna go ahead with the two guys from Perfect Strangers with Urkel as a recurring guest star. Cuz Perfect Strangers was awesome!

    New Fraggle Rock Comic 2014

    That said, I'm glad my Comic book store actually had it in. They've been getting bad as of late (I blame the distributor) and only saw them finally carry a Steven Universe yesterday (the third issue). I'm still looking for Turtles in Time #4. I invested in all 3 previous issues to not find a...
