    Questions about anything

    I'm glad someone else points this out. Country music as we know it currently is essentially a b&^tardization of rock and pop to some extent. It's not really true country (with small exceptions). And frankly, it's the most mainstream commercial music can get. While there are some genuinely...

    Thoughts on sponsors

    You...eh...know I mean by product placement. Often times this brings in extra money for the movie production the studios just won't give them. Product Placement, if done low key enough ads a level of realism to a movie. But more often than not, it's dealt with a heavy hand. Which brings me...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    So, seriously D'Snowth... what is up with the traced Arthur "fan art" of characters in their underwear? Especially the Bud with Hershey's Kiss nipples? That was a preview pic that was in my inbox, and it was disturbing. Not the most disturbing thing I've seen on that site, but inappropriate...

    When you need to rant...

    I promised myself I wouldn't do this...but... The greedy, cheapskate, cowardly, "my dad own the network" daytime network heads that killed Saturday Mornings in Cold Blood. But what really gets me is the whole "there's nothing we can do, goodbye" defeatism it's meeting with. Yeah, I understand...

    TV Tropes

    I think that would be "Evil has Standards." The opposite of that would have to be. I wonder if someone would be open to "Screwdored by the Network." Like when a network can't wait to cancel a show, yet reruns it endlessly after the fact either on their main or alternate networks. Of course...

    The Gravity Falls Thread

    Okay, Matt Chapman obviously did the voice of the Hand Witch. He used essentially the same voice as Blue Laser with a little The Ugly One thrown in. I know I should be over it, but there's just something about hearing Homestar Runner character voices on television that's kinda mystifying.

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    You know what? While I can harp about the slice of life episodes, I'd rather they make more of those than Arthur Inflicting anymore characters to drivea point home. While I know it's a hypothetical, I'd hate to see any other character go through a parent's divorce. Not every character has to...

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    Nah. One of the animators probably saw what they were unleashing upon the world and felt that it needed to be stopped. Even with good animation, the writing was Ark of the Covenant melt your flesh off bad. I'm sure by then the actors washed their hands of the whole thing and (I guess I have...

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    Opinion equals quality. I get it. Seems you're dislike for anime is the main reason you don't like it, and that's fine. That said, I'm sure you're one of those fans that thinks this completely raped the franchise but swoon over Tiny Titans. I know those. Saying this is a baby show is a bit...

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    I'd agree, except that I think Kasanoff is too darn delusional to come up with an intricate plan. I do, however, think the hardware thefts were an inside job. Someone realized the movie was too horrible to be released to the public. Hopefully, someone steals the hard drives for Tetris as well.

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    Is he the same guy who keeps spamming Aardvarks Anonymous with pictures of characters in their underwear?

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    Dear Lord! I found more news on the Tetris movie. Suffice to say, this news is spinetinglingly bad. If you didn't think anything about the movie could be worse, wanna know the studio planning to do it? Threshold Entertainment Who are these people you may ask? Why the company behind the...

    When you need to rant...

    I'll take that over characters being incredibly mean to each other for laughs. I'm getting sick of unsympathetic protagonists, myself.

    Most Annoying TV Series Ever?

    You...you watched one episode, didn't you? The further the show went on, the more it tackled some dark topics and the anime outtakes were all but phased out. The final season especially. I get what you're saying, but the old school comic geeks that hated the show wanted yet another Bruce...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    UGh... really?! They couldn't come up with the lamest cliche in kid's media on their own? They had to have an unimaginative kid rip it off for them. That's...that's much worse. Now, if I entered something on Facebook, I'd say they should do an episode where D.W. is finally called out on her...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Someone's gotta know this. Was Cookie Monster known as Cookie Monster at that point, or was that the skit where he got his name? It was season 2, after all, and I'm not 100% sure if they had the skit he was named for season 1.

    Uncle Grandpa

    I like how it gives the show an established antagonist. Especially since it sets up Aunt Grandma returning someday. And it also was for the full 10 minutes without even the white background blackout gags/transitions. On another note, it's great to see Uncle Grandpa getting even with a brat...

    Your Thoughts: Half-hour Sesame Street begins on PBS September 1, 2014

    I was going to praise this for having less nonsense like 10th time Abby reruns, but considering they cut off the ending of Mr. Chips (where David Hyde Pierce starts acting uncharacteristically like Cookie Monster and Cookie uncharacteristically points out how he's embarrassing himself). I...

    Thoughts on sponsors

    They kept the 1990's version of him well into the 00's. Which was... kinda painfully out of touch. As far as I go? While I never had the CEC franchise near me until the 90's, I absolutely love the sleazy side show version of the character from the 80's. Something that was never meant to be...

    Galavant "Thoughts"

    I'm glad they're handling tough issues in a mature yet insanely hilarious way. I don't think I've laughed as much and as hard watching something intentionally funny for some time. Usually it takes something pretty stupid or weird to get me that out of breath. The line about Hellen Miran...
