One thing I like about the article is Michael Davis addresses something that I've brought up before: it seemed like sometimes the adults could be downright mean to Big Bird about Snuffy at times, some of them moaning, "I sure am sick of hearing about your imaginary friend, why don't you stop...
I think reruning episodes from a time where the set looked different isn't too much of a concern: remember, Season 25 was the first season of the brightened up and cleaned up set with the new ATC area, yet they had reruns from Season 23, when the set still had that urban grit look to it. Of...
After watching "My Club Rules" today, I wonder why Drtooth hasn't thought to do a deviation or a YTP of this yet:
"Then you can't be in the club! You have to have fun to be in this club! It's the Fun Club!"
He's done Frank's characters since the turn of the millennium; since then, Frank has only occasionally done his SST characters, but he's been officially retired from the Classic Muppets since, so yes, Eric performed Fozzie and Piggy in that movie (though I think Kevin Clash did Sam for that one).
I've been noticing that ever since THE MUPPETS (2011): Eric Jacobson was always really consistent with Fozzie's voice up till then, now it seems like Fozzie's voice is either way too high, or way too low - kind of like Marty Feldman as Igor in YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN: his voice was very inconsistent...
Even George Lucas is now complaining how there's too much corporate influence and interference in Hollywood, taking away any enjoyment that movie-making could bring from a creative standpoint.
Why can't we take a hint from other countries that still make movies and such for the sake of the art...
So the producers of THE BIG DANG THEORY have decided that the show needs . . . even more sex! That's all this show has been about from the beginning is sex: everytime you look up, the characters are always in bed with each other, and thanks to this show as well as cons, nerds have gone from...
I know we've complained about the movies having poop jokes in them (like that raisin bit you're so fond of, Drtooth), but I have to say in yesterday's new episode: I don't care whether or not it was necessary for Alvin to get crapped on by a raven - bird poop will always be timelessly funny.
But that's not the kind of humor Jim was about; even with Statler and Waldorf, they may have heckled the other Muppets (Fozzie in particular), but they were never intended to be mean-spirited. Caroll learned the hard way about going too far when he ad-libbed Oscar saying to Paul Simon, "So long...
Chelsea Handler was a terrible choice for a guest star, and it's further evidence that the writers and producers of this show really are intentionally making this show as adult as possible - Chelsea has built a "comedy" career out of being mean-spirited and trash-talking people, and otherwise...
Again, this is one of the problems with the show: relationship humor is a major facet of mainstream sitcoms these days, and Disney and ABC is trying to make this a mainstream sitcom.
The more I think about it, I think GALAVANT ripped off Sid & Marty Krofft, considering a pilot they did for ABC back in the 70s (that Michael Eisner green-lit):
No, you're the one who's wrong, because you contribute absolutely nothing to this community, all you do is pick fights with people who don't share your cockeyed and skewed opinions. That's all you do, you just troll the forum waiting for somebody to say something that differs from your opinion...
But working for SST was Steve's childhood dream. I'd say Disney is somehow involved, but if that were the case, Eric, Matt, and David would probably be effected as well.
Tell me about it: Bob and Susan's diminished presence has not gone unnoticed. I've kind of wondered about Alan myself, it seemed like he was appearing less and less while Chris was appearing more and more - but then again, I know Alan Muroaka's doing a lot of theater work as of late as a...
Older franchises don't need modernization, modernization is what ruins these older franchises, because they're losing the charm that made them so unique in years past all in attempts of telling the world, "We're Still Relevant, ******!" This is why the new ALVINNN!!! AND THE CHIPMUNKS series is...
Hmm. Now I'm starting to suspect that Sonia's retirement wasn't voluntary or on her own terms: SW's got a new staff, all these changes are happening, Joey left because he didn't agree with them scaling back on the Muppets. . . . what you bet Sonia's departure was over age discrimination? That's...
Speaking of gay commercials, I recently saw one for Las Vegas: it starts with a hetero couple checking into a swanky hotel, to which the desk clerk asks, "You two checking in?" The couple just exchange lovey-dovey glances with each other. Then later, two men walk up to the front desk, and are...
