    The Cleveland Show likely to be cancelled

    Jerks work comedically if they're either over the top or get their comeuppance. That's why I hate Gordon Ramsy shows but love Fawlty Towers and Chef. It's the same character technically, but something bad always happens to them to balance it out. Everyone was a jerk in that show, especially...

    When you need to rant...

    This is something that not only irritates me, but infects me as well. You know what they tell everyone so annoying little viruses don't spread? Wash your hands. Guess what people don't do? Wash their hands. I'm sick of getting sick (through prolonged exposure) because someone caught...

    Wild Thornberries DVD (interesting development)

    I honestly wish Nick would give Shout the license to release Fairly Oddparents in season sets. And, as they own them now, the 2k3 TMNT series. Not like they're making any money off of it.

    The Cleveland Show likely to be cancelled

    Allen Gregory was a terrible show. Aside from the ugly character designs and the overuse of pastel colors (way to burn the eyes of everyone watching), none of the characters were remotely likable. We had either oblivious jerks or Deadpan Snarking jerks. it would have worked as a movie, I...

    Cars Sidequel/Spinoff "Planes" Coming Soon

    I don't quite see TV show. Maybe short subjects like Cars did. It depends on how much they're willing to spend on a CGI weekly series. If you look at all the Dreamworks based cartoons, while very impressive, the CGI is completely streamlined, and characters have been redesigned to accommodate...

    Finding Dory coming to theaters Summer 2016

    It would be... had this not been announced months ago.

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    That's the thing about Reboots/remakes. The bad ones tend to outnumber the good ones, and paint the good ones as bad. I'd see that in time, after I saw the originals. The closest I've gone to seeing the original was that episode of Reboot. Wonder if this film goes by the name Captain...

    Finding Dory coming to theaters Summer 2016

    I'd really expect the tank gang to have some sort of role in the film. There's so much potential in them trying to get by in the ocean, it would be a complete waste not to.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 43

    A new SG 2.0. They're sure to rerun that a few times.

    The Cleveland Show likely to be cancelled

    I just discovered Axe Cop, and the entire premise is extremely heart warming. The series was created and written by a 5/6 year old boy and drawn by his 30 year old brother. That's just absolutely adorable. Bob's really should be more popular than it is. Something tells me if it was on AS...

    Cars Sidequel/Spinoff "Planes" Coming Soon

    Yeah, but when Pixar does it, they do it right. Pixar did sign off on this, but this is all Disney wanting another toyetic cash cow franchise. What ever happened to the no cheapquels rule? While an awful lot of them were terrible, some were genuinely good. They certainly were better than...

    The Cleveland Show likely to be cancelled

    I'm quite surprised they gave American Dad another season. That's been the redheaded stepchild for years. FG keeps circulating T-shirts, plush toys, and other little gag gifts. AD had stuff just before the show began and nothing else. of course, FG wouldn't even have came back if it weren't...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    Can't tell if its a TV show or not. Seems to be more of a series of random specials of which there are about 6 or 7 episodes of (I've only seen one). They released 2 episodes to DVD that come with exclusive Lego figures. And the best part is, they're time warped, so they get to have the...

    Petition for Skeeter in The Muppets... Again!

    As much as I'd love to have Skeeter Retconned in any Muppet project, it's painfully clear that even under Henson, The Muppets and Muppet babies were designed to be 2 different franchise that were never meant to cross into each other. With the exception of the Muppet Babies storybook and cartoon...

    Remembering Jane Henson (1934-2013)

    Pretty oblivious of me to just find this out, but none the less depressing news. Especially since I almost went to the Jim Henson's Magic World exhibit the day she was speaking. I'm never good at commenting on these things. My sympathies go out to the Henson family. I haven't lost my parents...

    Theme Songs that Insult the Show

    American/English Anime Dub music... Here's Time Bokan's terrible English equivalent... The Awful Canadian Dragon Ball opening To be fair, that's a remake of the French opening... but that horrid CGI that has nothing to do with Dragon Ball... ugh. Here's Baby Felix... one of the worst...

    The Stooge: Starring Roger Rabbit & Mickey Mouse

    They're probably pushing Roger now since they have the ability to. Roger was Copyright blocked because Disney and Amblin due to a disagreement with Eisner and Spielberg. Now Eisner's long gone, there's time to reconcile. Not that there wasn't the occasional spot of merchandising from time to...

    Theme Songs that Insult the Show

    Super Why is insulting period. I always caught the end segment where they sing some terrible song about spelling or vocabulary. I think the show is a perfectly good waste of a pretty good concept going the Dora route, but the music seems like it was written during a trip to that bathroom, and...

    The Cleveland Show likely to be cancelled

    Fox is pushing these shows more than Seth is. The Cleveland Show sounded like a contractual obligation, and it really was Mike Henry's spinoff project. Oddly enough, Cleveland was far more likable than the Flanderized jerky manchild version of Peter Griffin. In fact, out of the three shows...

    Finding Dory coming to theaters Summer 2016

    I'm fifty fifty on the Cars movies. I see why everyone hates them, but they are fun films. The second one had a Saturday morning Cartoon plot that, no matter what they could have done with it would have been juvenile. Of course, you're talking about a film that only really spoke to juvenile...
