Apparently, they deleted the page image of Nostalgia Critic reviewing THE ODD LIFE OF TIMOTHY GREEN (a non-nostalgic film), because a majority of the TV Tropes community doesn't even know who Nostalgia Critic is.

Just about everything you see on TV is sweetened in some way or form, even award shows and pageants are sweetened as well. There's a video compilation on YT of a certain canned laugh that's heard frequently on HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER - I've heard that same laugh on CONAN before as well.

Part of the problem today too is laugh tracks really have no distinction to them, they all kind of sound the same, droll, "intelligent" laughter, but the thing of it is, it supposedly has to do with audiences becoming more "sophisticated" as opposed to back in the 50s, 60s, and 70s, where...

Isn't that guy in the green bowling jacket the fake Kramer who stole the box of raisins?

Why am I not at all surprised that a white cop who shot a black kid to death got off scott clean? Honest to God, if it was the other way around, and the cop was black and the kid was white, that cop would have immediately been terminated from the force, tried for murder, and probably be facing a...

They still occasionally did that up through the 90s.

And, much like I predicted, since I knew what I was working with, the second head turned out considerably nicer-looking.

And finally, here's the overall base of one of the puppets. I've only recently patterned the torsos as well, this was the second time I've ever done so (last year when I built a new Steve D'Monster, I patterned and shaped his torso), before that, I pretty much lazily just rolled foam into...

Wow, really? Amazing how one word can have a completely different context in different corners of the world; I understand the word "spunk" is considered a dirty word in the U.K., while in the U.S. it's pretty much the same as saying somebody has guts.

Oddly enough, this restaurant of his is called Margaritaville, but like I said, it's not getting too many good reviews so far.

Much of America didn't start observing/celebrating Halloween till the 1920s.

Now I'm reminded of Kermit Unpigged, where Rizzo sees the sign on his door, thinking it's, "Jimmy's Buffet."

We kind of have a thread like this already, I believe it's called the "Kiss-Kiss, Hug-Hug Thread."

I'd fabricate the mouth first, then line it.

Which brings to mind this little exchange from MTI: RIZZO: I think it's some kind of a blind being. GONZO: I think they prefer, "Visually challenged being."

Since almost all of western animation is actually animated over in Asia (Korea, in particular), then isn't calling it, "Western animation," kind of a contradiction in terms?

Well, again, there was once a time where that word wasn't some kind of a racial slur towards disabled people, and was more of a slang term for calling someone an idiot or a dimwit, and some people out there seem to still be stuck in that kind of immature/outdated mentality. On that token, we...

Not at all, in fact, because these are considerably smaller than most puppets I build, the snoots work very well at keeping your four fingers in place in the top of the head.

Lots and lots of screencaps from the new show keep being released, which is all well and good, but I'm confused about something: The Chipettes are obviously living in their old treehouse again, yet Vanessa Bagdasarian has confirmed that Miss Miller actually will be part of the new show... in the...
