This is the most conflicting thing I ever found out. A miscommunication at Disney almost lead to a 1991 revival of Rocky and Bullwinkle... the show they pitched when they found out they only had video distribution rights? Darkwing Duck. My favorite cartoon show came out of the ashes of...

The thing that bugs me more is that even those who remember Ducktales don't know Scrooge McDuck anywhere outside of that show. I admit, when I was really really young and the show first came out, I saw a big expensive Scrooge McDuck comic hardcover collection and it absolutely amazed me that it...

Goes without saying that Mountain Climber the Musical was withheld for season 44, right? I wonder if those Ernie and Bert segments, at least one of them, that Oscarfan mentioned may have a shot of being on as well. I'm not liking this filming one season while filming another. Seems like...

Just a head's up. It's true that they got all the surviving voice actors back, but had to recast Gyro (I guess he has an opening cutscene, he was only in some obscure bonus level in the original), Flintheart, and Gizmoduck/Fenton. All official voice actors, though. And they made some...

This is asking for a stretch, but does anyone have any sound files of the music used on the animated version of Fraggle Rock? Most of them are actually quite different from the live action version, even changing lyrics and characters who sing them.

Sesame Street is a special case. Some of the characters were phased out because, let's face it, they were one note jokes that served their purpose and the writers (and often performers) just couldn't come up with any more material. Cookie Monster eats stuff and The Count counts, but there's...

I just discovered this yesterday, basically because I've had very little access to SCTV... So, basically the character (not quite as a fairy, but with a magic wand) immigrated from SCTV (hey! Like a lot of Andrea's Sesame Street characters) from a hilarious sketch called "Mrs. Falbo's Tiny...

Which were the timeless ones? The ones with the Disco Music, the ones with the psychedelic imagery, or the ones with Miami Vice and Hip to be Square parodies? Timelessness was never Sesame Street's strong suit. There are some very timeless parts of Sesame Street, sure. You could show certain...

Now that I think about it, CBS actually did the impossible. It screwed a show by renewing it! I honestly don't see how they're going to pull a full season of How I Met Your Mother out of their butts, when the entire show could have been resolved in one episode. I feel sorry for the writers...

Disney has a good track record of leaving these companies to do what they do best. The fact that Disney doesn't (and actually can't) recall any of the Marvel movie contracts pretty much shows that. They just handle the characters and merchandising, and they leave most of that up to Marvel's...

"The Muppets: Would everyone please refrain from eating in the common area? It's attracting Ants." or "The Muppets: Just keepin' a wax penny betwixt me and the devil's wheelbarrow."

I never fully understood that on Muppet Babies. It's a funny pairing on that show, sure. But why did the writers of Muppet Babies pair up two characters as besties when they never appear together in that way in the series proper?

How about: "No Doubt About it. This Film Does NOT Feature Bum Bum Ghingno." (Tag line: Nope. Not even remotely close)

I got mine the hard way. Getting them out of an actual gumball machine. I have almost the entire set except freaking Chowder. And then I never saw those things in a machine ever again, only to find the same crappy lead based jewelry that never gets banned completely and that stupid colored...

I'm more annoyed that these are UK exclusive and we'd probably never see them unless we get lucky around the time of the next movie. They still carry the same plush Piggy, Walter, Animal, and Kermit plush (Fozzie and Gonzo have been cleared out and moved fast), but there hasn't been so much as...

What has Amblin done lately? I know there was something, can't quite pin it on anything. Was it Tintin? That movie was successful... just not in the US. But remember, before the CGI cartoon movie boom, everyone was out there, trying to copy Disney's then success of animated films. I have no...

I'd tend to think George sounds more like Spike from that new Pony show, but I tried looking it up, and I don't think it's the same person. Definitely not Tabitha though. I'm not hugely familiar with Canadian voice acting troupes, but it seems that there's one main group... you're Ian...

I'm going to have to take back what I said about Fern's Stolen Story and Sue Ellen Veges out... There was so much passive agressiveness in both episodes that it was too good to resist. Between Ladonna's PA war with the show's resident PA Queen, Fern was actually outdone by Muffy and...

Officially it somehow is. You can get away with fart now. Bathroom humor has rapidly turned fart from an inappropriate word to something pretty commonplace. But Crap was let out of the bag, someone complained, and it was noticeably shoved back in. And thus the replacement word for the...

I call bull crap on crap being a cuss word. Prudes think it's a cuss word. Crap is the G-rated substitute for the SH bomb, and it should be treated and respected as such. If they got away with saying it on Hey Arnold, they should still get away with it on kid's shows.
