    When you need to rant...

    It was fixed, and they knew controversy would get people interested in the show. Other than that, while what he said was crass, uninformed, and like the bitter drunk uncle that no body likes but they have to keep inviting, at least he wasn't duckish enough (heh, can't use the real word) to act...

    Does Sesame Street still air classic segments?

    Which is something I can completely agree to. They do air some non-HD stuff when they're desperate for filler. I don't see why they don't air more full frame stuff from the past 10 years lately (again, unless they're desperate enough)... even non-HD stuff from the past 5 years. I still can't...

    When you need to rant...

    I love this brave new era of victimizers playing victim. The Fundies are oppressed because they can't oppress others and everyone but whites are racist. And then when you call them out on their bull, they're the biggest crybabies there ever was. I knew too many bullies like that, so you can...

    Does Sesame Street still air classic segments?

    I honestly wish Sesame Street got more heavily into the adult collector's market. Shame that both times an action figure line was proposed, the companies filed for bankruptcy. But you know what would be great? Sesame Street Funko Pops. But back to the topic at hand... we don't seem to...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 44

    That way, the sketch couldn't work. Telly's a triangle expert, you see. He could win the argument without Grover doing anything funny.

    Muppet FREAKING Go-Gurt!

    Apparently, the Muppets are so on the go, that they drink their yogurt from a tube. I'd say something, but goofy cross promotions like this are good. Personally, I can't wait to see my city streets littered with Bunsen Yogurt packages. Seriously... you'd think kids knew what a garbage can...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    (Slams head on Desk) Ugh... listen. I know Pixar's inner studio politics has pushed Good Dinosaur back a year, but really?! I thought they were going to dump this crap on home video for the 4 year olds who would actually get enjoyment out of them. I get that they have a film ready in Good...

    Does Sesame Street still air classic segments?

    I could get on the whole "Republicans want to defund PBS because they don't blindly worship their point of view/that's less money to give to the oil industry," bit. But my state's different (but more conservative than people tend to think, but mostly in suburban areas), so I wonder what its...

    Rowlf and Constantine Plush

    That's what should be more important. The film's success by itself. And hopefully, it will get the due it deserves, since last time it had that one good week, and fell out at a weak movie going period. One completely over-saturated with films. Other than the completely lost opportunity for...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 44

    Okay... anyone else thinking "It isn't Maggaggie's Birthday?" with that "occo" cake? I always love these Rocco episodes. We get to see a side of Elmo where he's actually funny and emotes, and just overall a comical aspect that they rarely show. Especially the fact that everyone else is...

    Rowlf and Constantine Plush

    I've come to expect Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars will be marketed far above the Muppets. But Planes?!? That was a cynical marketing ploy to squeeze even more milk out of the Cars cash cow, effectively being like Hanna Barbera in the 70's. Making a inferior ripoff of their own product that no...

    Does Sesame Street still air classic segments?

    Funny story before I get to that point. There's this horrible cooking show on PBS Create that looks like a cheap, public access show. I swear this is true. It has so many sponsors ... I forgot, but it's at least 10. And it still looks like something shot in someone's basement. Really. 10...

    You're favorite/ least favorite character designs

    I'm just going to say, whatever problems anyone has with the new Gonzo puppet, I think we can all agree that at least he doesn't look like this: As for my favorite personal Piggy? GMC era. She looked magnificent in that one... oddly enough sort of like Kristen Johnston back in the 90's...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    If you checked the link above, you'd see it's exactly like the other budget "shut the kids up for 80 minutes" titles they're releasing. And it will almost certainly be some pre-existing DVD with a new package. Question is, what?

    Spammers at MC...

    Personally, I'm waiting for the inevitable day where this jerk posts "watch Muppets Most Wanted Free." That's going to be fun. It'd be awesome if Disney caught him doing it.

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    If it took them that long to get the project to work and it was still abandoned, you have to think there was something about it that wasn't working, no matter what they did. But over all, I just don't see the project working for anything over a half hour TV special. No matter how funny the...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Here's two things that bugged me today. First up... Dragon Ball Kai's new season. It was supposedly developed for foreign consumption and Japan wasn't supposed to get the series. So naturally news comes that Japan will premiere the series and Funimation has no current plans to dub and...

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    That's the thing I'm not really liking either. The little behind the scenes stuff should have some mentions of Muppet performers like that. Other than that, I'm pretty happy with how they're handling things. Just the frequent need to be overly cautious about the franchise kinda hurts things...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    The ...And Friends line is a series of crappy, low budget for children compilation DVD's of Batman, Looney Tunes, Superman, and Scooby-Doo. Obviously also Sesame Street, but no need to repeat that. The funny thing is, the Batman and Friends release (all episodes of Batman TAS... what friends?)...

    When you need to rant...

    And I'll give them this much. They aren't as complete monstery as Russia or African countries on the matter. Even though, as I said, the hardcore Fundies of this country are the only reason Africa's doing what it's doing.
