    Halloween is just around the corner

    As I mentioned in another thread, there's a serious pumpkin shortage this year (at least in our region, not sure about the rest of the country) because of the drought and the prolonged summer we've had stunting the growth of pumpkins and making them more susceptable to disease. A lot of the...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Watching Episode 2376 on YouTube, I like how Snuffy keeps calling Oscar "Mr. Oscar," and Oscar keeps calling him "Mr. Yuckalupagus" (along with calling his snuffle a "yuckle").

    Live shows have to have additional canned laughter added in post often times because sometimes there's bumps and gaps between cuts that have to be filled . . . or, in some cases, to augment the studio audience reaction: I'm acquainted with a TV historian who attended a taping of ALICE in the...

    The Worst TV Show Ever!

    So Melissa McCarthy is already unnecessarily in two new shows this season (really?), one of which she plays a sarcastic, sharp-tongued housewife who's like really belittling to her kids and husband, played by Dietrich Bader, who's actually starting to look a lot more like Vince Vaughn now...

    What made you think today?

    Knowing that so many Muppets are museum pieces now, including the original Green Grover (otherwise known as Mr. Fuzzyface) and the original shapeless Cookie Monster has got me to thinking of how even way back in 1969, Caroll thought the original Orange Oscar would end up in a museum one day had...

    List of Changed Channels

    Ah yes, I watched a couple of those movies here a couple of weeks ago (see my most recent reply in the creepy movie thread). But dang, I really miss SUPERMARKET SWEEP, I used to watch that show every afternoon in syndication (I don't think I ever remember watching it on Lifetime, lol).

    It's a live audience, laugh tracks are seldom used anymore except for sweetening, and even then they're uses sparingly anymore, as many producers are trying to veer away from that "full" audience sound. In fact, I hear CBS is going to start doing away with live audiences from their new...

    THE BIG DANG THEORY is universally hated in India because they find the Indian guy to be an offensive caricature. Funny - I hate the show because I find the portrayal of nerds as sexual deviants to be offensive, yet it's the number one show in America. :P

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    THE LION KING was a good movie, don't get me wrong, but for a while there, it was to Disney what Rugrats were to Nick, in that Lion King was everywhere: Timon and Pumbaa got their own TV spin-off (which also occasionally features the Hyenas), then they redid the first movie with Timon and Pumbaa...

    The Decline of DVD Commentaries

    I haven't seen recent Pixar movies on DVD, but I'm surprised by your disclaimer, because Pixar has been notorious in the past for having very, very chatty commentaries, to the point where it's like they never even take a breath, they just keep talking and talking and talking and talking. The...

    So, is Kevin Hart going through a serious ego trip or what? I mean he hasn't even been mainstream too many years, and already he's like the black NPH or Steve Carell - he's in practically every single new movie, not to mention he's already got a vanity movie coming out, which seems about as...
