    The future of Sesame Street

    It's very disappointing that we didn't get a special or anything for the 40th... even the 35th had that pretty alright Elmo's World based special that was just a regular episode. I swear that the 25th anniversary had at least 2 specials, as did the 20th. I just hope 45 and especially 50 get...

    Muppets Wacky Wobblers

    It would be disappointing to not see a second series of the Pop figures. I still haven't managed to get one yet, but it would be really cool if they at the very least finished off the band. It's only 3 more figures.

    Muppets Wacky Wobblers

    That Animal plush looks rather much like the Mahna Mahna...errr... Bip Boppadotta from the original Mahna Mahna skit from Sesame Street. And a little like the one used for Fat Cat Sat.

    The future of Sesame Street

    We got a book and some very lackluster toys from Fisher Price (the Count Plush was epic, though). I hardly call it that big. We didn't even get the premier episode in prime time like they promised they would. I just hope there's something good for season 45. At least have some rarer...

    Spammers at MC...

    Wise words indeed. However in closing someone has to say this... Again, this is why internet anonymity is screwed up. This person should be in a rubber room. Plain and simple. This guy screams danger to himself and others in bold flaming red letters.

    When you need to rant...

    School is terrible. It really is. Middle and High School almost drove me to suicide and gave me a whole lot of social anxiety that still keeps me from talking to people. And when I was in elementary school all my teachers were either old hag versions of Ms. Hoover or (worse) that teacher Bart...

    That's the problem with internet anonymity. This guy clearly needs to be visited by the guys in white coats and butterfly nets. Bob The Pizza Boy's story is frightening. Those are the ramblings of a crazy stalker, and a dangerous individual. Something tells me he has nothing but free time to...

    The future of Sesame Street

    We have to face the fact that we're going to lose a lot of puppeteers due to age and, well, just leaving the show. But then again, SE does routinely recast it's characters, and I'm sure they have plan B's if anyone leaves unexpectedly. And it's too much of an institution for SW or PBS to try...

    Toy Fair 2013?

    At least they're FINALLY putting out a different assortment of Sesame Street pal Packs. Even though that assortment is 2 sets. I really hoped they'd have more with a bigger assortment of yet unreleased characters. A Baby Bear at least. But that baker Cookie Monster (and we've had tons of...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 43

    I'm pretty sure they have a back up. If nothing else, they have enough back footage of Elmo to last a while. The worst I'd see is his presence shrink a little, but nothing large scale. They'll just recast the character and things will be as normal as they ever been. Grover, however, has...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    I have the old Buena Vista VHS with both story lines shoved into it. I forget which one it is, and it's heavily edited to combine episodes for better run time as a VHS. I actually have all the Buena Vista tapes (I had to get Vincent Van Moose used, though), and the barely legal Goodtimes VHS...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    I don't know how the heck they got the formula to work. Like I said on another thread, I shall never make fun of the live action 102 Dalmatians movie ever again, since the actual sequel to the book is much much worse than ANYTHING Disney could ever have cheapquelled. It had something to do...

    Twice Upon a Time

    I'll beat both of you. I saw it once on Spanish television, very fuzzy (why do Spanish language TV stations have such poor transmitters?) and I didn't know what the heck it was. It drove me insane, since I can't even remember if they gave it a title in Spanish in the bumpers (I came in about...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    I wouldn't say "Fix" so much as "pad." For someone who really dislike's Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (I'll give it a shot one day... if it's on television and nothing else is on and I'm home that night and I don't have anything to do), the worst offender IMO is Polar Express. Horton, for...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    If there's one thing the animated TV special added was a nice little exchange between the Onceler and the Lorax. The Onceler asks the Lorax quite bluntly, paraphrasing Look. If I shut down the factory, all the jobs will be lost and businesses that rely on them will fail. The Lorax sadly...

    VERY obvious Sesame Street references in this Teen Titans short.

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    too add to this... Let's not forget... 22 page kid's book to 90 minute movie. And this is a Dr. Seuss book with a pretty intensive plot, such as it is. The TV special added only so much (musical numbers and cartoony gags with the demolition machines), and that barely made it a 22 minute...

    Another Movie remake of the Grinch... really?

    Oh, I never do searches. Well... except that one time I looked up Muteking. Justifiably, that's the one thing you can look up and only find safe pictures of since no one has ever heard of it. Which is a real thorn in my side, as I did at least 4 pieces featuring those characters. I bet that's...

    Stupid Question, But...

    I see it all the time. It's all Elmo stuff. Grocery stores, Target, dollar stores... I keep running into them somewhere. I absolutely hate that they don't put bubblebath in Soakies anymore. Not that I readily use anything as a shower taker, but you can at least dump the stuff out and have a...
