    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    I've been trying for almost a year to verify my official account, and Google has never, ever sent me a verification code. And you can tell when accounts don't have the verification checkmark next to their usernames and yet their videos have like cover art or title cards or such rather than...

    Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

    Who all is singing the refrain? Definitely Jim and Frank (sounds like Rowlf and Cookie Monster), but I think I also hear Caroll (I thought I heard Oscar's voice in there somewhere), and do I also hear Bob McGrath in there as well? I've kind of wondered though why throughout the first season...

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

    I've noticed a lot of shows and networks right now are pushing, "Next generation of entertainment," in their ads. I guess when shows are given actual budgets, it's a new generation.

    Thoughts on sponsors

    Alls I remember was ARTHUR used to be sponsored by Juicy Juice, Baby Gap, Polaroid (remember, back in those days when disposable cameras were, like, really cool?), and Alpha-Bits (remember when that used to exist?) I think Lego sponsored the show during the season where Arthur's balls dropped.

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    Okay, I have yet another complaint: it's pretty obvious that new accounts are automatically approved for custom thumbnails... yet older accounts still can't unlock custom thumbnails without verifying their accounts... and Google still won't send out verification codes.

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    They've been talking about doing a Tetris movie for a while now.

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

    In the case of "Based on a Screenplay By" it could be that the movie was based on another script for another movie that ultimately never saw the light of day for one reason or another... I think MAJOR PAYNE has similar credits, I think it apparently was adapted from a script for something by the...

    Thoughts on sponsors

    You know you're old when you remember when Juicy Juice used to be a sponsor for ARTHUR. Seems like Chuck E. Cheese's is the sole sponsor of almost all PBS Kids shows anymore, and has been for years.

    The "I Saw Something REALLY Weird Today" Thread

    The Muppets' Lipton tea commercial with the spaghetti dinner has been playing on TV all day today. That's not the weird part... the weird part is that they all keep saying, "MUPPETS MOST WANTED coming to bluray and digital August 12." August 12 was waaaaaay over a month ago.

    What made you think today?

    Yeah, I know Disney's version is considerably different from the original book, of which I've actually never read... like Esmeralda being a teenager rather than a grown-woman, Phoebus being an alcoholic and womanizing *******, and Quasimodo being mentally slow, Clopin being a lot more maniacal...

    What made you think today?

    I love THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, I think (in spite of all of its surrounding controversy) that it's one of Disney's best: it was probably the first movie I saw more than once while in theaters (six times, I think) not to mention I think I watched it almost everyday for a year after it came...

    The... -wait fer it-... "What made you laugh today?" Thread

    While looking at a circular for Party City, I saw a family dressed as the Mario Bros: the dad was dressed as Mario, the mom was dressed as Luigi, and their two boys were also dressed as Mario and Luigi... but just seeing the mother dressed as Luigi really brought a whole new meaning to "Mama Luigi."

    The perks and pitfalls of creating an online web series.

    I think the main reason so many producers of internet content go for adult content is because there's nobody to tell them otherwise. Even though the FCC doesn't even do its job anymore (again, I contacted the FCC this summer asking them why they keep allowing more and more filth on television...

    The Facepalm and/or Headdesk Thread

    I went to Sally's this afternoon because I was in need of a new comb since mine has been losing its teeth (yes, I actually have hair underneath the cap I grew); anyway, after I made my purchase and I was heading out the door, I happened to see $13 packs of the exact kind of hair I was looking...

    That seriously had me in stitches.

    The perks and pitfalls of creating an online web series.

    Yeah, I know that feeling. I've noticed that the things I post on my Scarblog that people tend to actually read is whenever I post about or review Muppet-related news and such, otherwise, I don't believe anybody reads anything that I post related to my actual original work. Other than that, as...

    Potential new Cookie Monster segment in development

    Wait a minute. What "Muppet Master Class last week"? What are you talking about? Did SW hold another puppeteering workshop?

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4505 - Enthusiastic Penelope Penguin

    I have only two things I want to say (and don't worry, I'll spare everyone my ongoing complaints about the unnecessarily excessive use of chromakey). 1. Penelope may just be one of the most obnoxious characters I've ever seen in anything in a long time; I know her intentions are good and she...

    Sesame Street Season 45 Episode 4503 - Proud to Be Me

    Isn't Segi the I Love My Hair Girl? But wow, if today's (or yesterday's, again, my PBS is a day behind for some reason) new episode didn't just scream political correctness (excuse me, I'm sorry, I mean, "Political sensitivity") gone mad, I don't know what did.

    Your Thoughts: Muppet Central Forum Upgrade June 21, 2014

    Nope, I'm still using 7, thank goodness... I have seen the future that is 8, and I for one am not impressed. :p But anyway, apparently, I was using the standard rich text editor, but I switched to the BB Code editor, and I'm not having any problems with it whatsoever.
