You mean having a TV show that makes fun of blue collar people didn't hurt the brand already? :coy: I agree to that, but again... we treat celebrities that carry no power or weight who say hateful things like horrible monsters, yet we let politicians that say the same things keep theirs...

It's got like several airings on other channels, so it's safe. If it were to disappear from television completely, there would be outrage. In fact, the only specials that are never in danger of not being aired are that, Frosty (and that crap freaking non-canonical special that I already...

Definitely. There is truth and wisdom in there, but some of it lies in the subtext and messages of the stories. Essentially, it boils down to there are wise people who want to help others and there are wicked people who want to hurt others. And to the people in between, there's lessons in the...

Apparently, they're getting rid of Mad. I'm much more steamed about that. it was far better than Robot Chicken ever was. And lemme tell yah, when they actually did the research, the sketches were amazing. Wanna know why Johnny Test is still on the network? It's cheap. CN doesn't have to...

Quoted for truth, and might I add how freaking vapid and hypocritical that is. if a celebrity says something racist or homophobic, they're terrible terrible people. But if a politician, commentator, or corrupt televangelist makes the same comments (heck, far, far worse ones) they get book...

And it once again comes down to "it's in the Bible, so it's true no matter how it contradicts itself and Christians are the victims." There are those who actually believe that because they have been told they're required to. That's something that can't be helped. It's a footnote that also...

An old religious redneck hunting enthusiast that hates gays and says something stupid and crazy. What's that old saying? Dog bites man is not news or something like that?

As far as I'm concerned, he was always a monster. Having him do one nice thing at the end doesn't really make up for the fact that he's essentially an allegory of a white slaver. He was exploiting the other toys at the daycare center and making it a living nightmare for everyone who wasn't...

Relax. ABC is going to air it at 8 PM on Christmas Eve, followed by the live action movie version. I'm starting to think, if anything, ABC Family's to blame. That said, must be nice to actually have Christmas specials instead of reruns from last year and 2 episodes of Shark Tank back to back.

Personally, I'm glad he didn't redeem himself. On the one hand, had he didn't, they would have ruined a brilliant call back to the second film. And secondly, it would have been completely too obvious and we would have seen it coming miles away. They even set it up just to subvert it. And the...

Oh YES! YES! That's what I love about that episode. That cynical, yet truthful slaughtering of how vapid that message is in certain TV specials... oft times they come from characters who only have shows to advertise their toy line or video game, and then everyone gets their presents anyway...

That I don't mind. I hate almost getting run over and bumping around in the dark.

On the subject of BAAAAD Christmas specials (cuz they're much more fun to talk about than good ones), know which one is pretty much the most pointless one I've ever seen? Sonic the Hedgehog's Christmas Blast. And it's a shame since it tried to blend AOSTH, SATAM, and the Archie comics into one...

The puppet thing was far more impressive than the skit. It was alright, better than the Fraggle Rock one, but it sunk into very obvious territory. Of course the only thing that really made me laugh in the entire special was the "Over the River and Through the Woods" bit. Not to say it didn't...

Snickers... Oh MAAAAN! Who wants to bet the current president takes, like, the blame for all that? Wanna hear the worst thing? This was something Bush signed in as lipservice to environmentalists, and even they found it ridiculous. Just like that Digital TV nonsense. Banning things...

OH SNAP! I HAVE that one. They released Mad Mad Mad Monsters on DVD a year ago and that was the back up bonus feature. You just have to track a copy of that down.

Dude, as long as it's not Frosty, Rudolph, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, or Year without a Santa Claus, they all fell through the cracks. Which is a right shame, since there's some great Rankin Bass productions out there that have gone completely obscure, Christmas or otherwise. There's Mad...

I like how everyone's whining about that Health Care website and they're doing a better job at fixing errors than Google is with Youtube. Now I'm getting videos not loading and having to refresh videos to get sound. WOW! Now I'm losing sound on videos for no apparent reason.

That's perfectly acceptable to. As long as I can hear the movie over conversations, I'm fine. I only had one problem with adults before, and that was during that Airbender movie, which I was kinda dragged to. Though, frankly, if I want to hear riffing during the film, I'd rather it be the...

That's not too bad. I mean, just loudly saying everything the characters just said (I should have known there was something bad going down... kid talked during the opening commercials too). That is, when I saw Turbo. Seeing Bolt was an experiance. The kid kept hitting me in the back of the...
