    Your Thoughts: Lady Gaga and The Muppets Holiday Spectacular on ABC

    Why does everybody keep saying Bobo is obscure? He's been a part of the Classic Muppets since the 90s. And I still don't see how Piggy came off as one-dimensional, she's always been a little pushy, a little jealousy over Kermie, and wanting the spotlight all to herself... none of that is...

    Have You Seen the Cast in Other Projects?

    I didn't take Raul Julia into consideration, but yes, those Addams Family movies, yes. Oh, and I just remembered: Will Lee played a little girl's grandfather in a commercial for PacMan.

    The "I Saw Something REALLY Weird Today" Thread

    I don't even know WHAT is was I saw today... it was like... there was a guy, and he was driving down the street in... some kind of vehicle that looked like a combination of an old jeep, and a yacht, and it looked like it wasmade from armored plate like a tank or something...

    Have You Seen the Cast in Other Projects?

    I haven't seen that, however, I remember years and years ago on one of the versions of LAW & ORDER, there was a domestic abuse case between a couple named... Maria and Luis. :eek: I think that must be it!

    Major Family Guy Character Killed Off

    Have I not said that already? More than once?

    Have You Seen the Cast in Other Projects?

    I got to thinking this would make for an interesting thread, but have you ever seen any of the human actors in any other shows, movies, plays, etc. outside of SST? I haven't seen much, but what I have seen is rather interesting. Roscoe Orman: Being a fan of SANFORD AND SON, I've seen an...

    Isn't that like walking out into the rain, and then saying, "I think it's wet out today."

    The Laugh Track Thread

    There's a few different factors as to why, usually it's because it's not cost-feasible to accomodate a live audience, other times it's because audiences disrupt the show by either overreacting or underreacting, but apparently the main reason nowadays is because producers apparently don't want to...

    The Laugh Track Thread

    I learned something new about Charley Douglass, the aforementioned Laff Box inventor: he literally created the applause for ROWAN AND MARTIN'S LAUGH-IN. You know how during the closing of the show, you hear what sounds like one lone person sarcastically clapping (well, I've never really seen...

    The Most Annoying Kids Shows

    I don't think they had to compete, I think some of the CTW staff felt threatened by Barney coming in and becoming an instant hit, and feeling it was time SST was given something of an overhaul to stay a step ahead of Barney... and yes, merchandising did play a factor in it apparently, heck...

    Your Thoughts: Lady Gaga and The Muppets Holiday Spectacular on ABC

    Whoever said the "core group" of Muppets was restricted to Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Scooter, and Rowlf? If you ask me, the "core group" of Muppets is ALL the TMS characters - that is, taking into consideration ALL of the Muppet characters there are out there (SST Muppets, TMS Muppets...

    What do you know about dreams?

    Not necessarily, however, the two things that make up most of your dreams are your biggest wishes, and your biggest fears.

    Your Thoughts: Lady Gaga and The Muppets Holiday Spectacular on ABC

    Yes, I've said that many times before, if you were to take something from the olden days that was shot on 35mm film (property restored and remastered, that is), and compare it to something today that was shot digitally, you can see the world of difference, and the 35mm still looks so much...

    Your Thoughts: Lady Gaga and The Muppets Holiday Spectacular on ABC

    There's really no reason whatsoever for this whole widescreen fad, especially TV... just because you crop out the top and bottom 25% of the picture doesn't magically make it "high definition" or something... that's like taking an old timey photograph, cutting off the top and bottom of it with a...

    When you need to rant...

    Sarge pretty much has a point... in situations like this, the problem doesn't lie within you, or the girl you're speaking to, the problem is with the boyfriend, because if he has issues with his girlfriend talking to other men, then he clearly has trust issues, and trust is one of the major...

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

    Someone previously was complaining about how DUCK DYNASTY is everywhere... and you know what? The more I actually anywhere, I've found that's actually true... I thought SpongeBob was bad years ago, I've never seen the like... sure, I can expect to see DUCK DYNASTY on DVD, on t-shirts and such...

    When you need to rant...

    So, wait, you're saying you're hitting on her, or she's hitting on your, in spite of the fact that she already has a boyfriend? Otherwise, what's the big deal? You're saying you would cut off all communication with every single female in your life if you had a girlfriend? Wow.

    Your Thoughts: Lady Gaga and The Muppets Holiday Spectacular on ABC

    Yes, this was Lady Gaga WITH the Muppets, HOWEVER, the thing that some of us are trying to get across is that the Muppets took a serious backseat in the special: Kermit did an incredibly awkward duet with Gaga, and Piggy got her own number, but as others have pointed, for the other numbers, the...
