    No more classic episodes to be released in the near future

    Oh yeah; on that subject, yeah, with SW dishing out actual copyright strikes for posting their content now, I can't take any chances, as I DID have a number of full episodes from Seasons 22, 23, 30, 32, 34, 35 and others posted... plus, I had gotten TONS of requests for various different classic...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    Okay, here's a couple, for me and my generation anyway... You know you're old when you remember when Cartoon Network, like Cookie Monster, used to be called "THE Cartoon Network" (like pre-Cartoon Cartoon era). Also, you know you're old when you remember that whenever CN would play a...

    The Laugh Track Thread

    The laugh track worked on TMS mainly because it didn't use the laugh track that was in place for all American sitcoms, which by that time, had become so familiar, that it actually started to sound fake; being over in the U.K., not only was it easy for Jim to bypass the regular laugh track, but...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    As well as when Linus and Lucy went out looking for a pumpkin at the beginning of Great Pumpkin (and later when Lucy went to fetch Linus at 4:00 in the morning), and also when Snoopy is cooking up popcorn and toast and such for Thanksgiving.

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    How about the way they treat "Linus and Lucy" was a Christmas song, even though it's pretty much the unofficial theme song for almost all PEANUTS specials?

    A Breakdown of the Series' Timeline

    As far as cold weather goes, Big Bird does have electric blankets and heating pads in his nest to keep him warm, as Maria pointed out in CEOSST. As for windy conditions, remember, he spent the night with Gordon and Susan as the hurricane blew through.

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    Sometimes I get the urge to start playing a violin whenever Drtooth gets into one of this little moods. Just sayin'... "Donut" has kind of always been around, I think it's supposed to be the "American spelling" of the word rather than an abbreviation ('cause, y'know, we always have to do...

    A Breakdown of the Series' Timeline

    Big Bird lampshaded this once! Back in 2003, Animal Planet had this countdown special of the top 50 greatest TV animals of all time (Big Bird was either #16 or #15... Kermit was definitely #2), and when interviewing him, he talked about how much he loved living on Sesame Street, but said that he...

    What is a Year Like for You?

    I'm the exact opposite: summer sucks, I can't function in heat, but winter is great. Yeah... maybe you were onto something there earlier... let's switch places.

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    THEN, IMMEDIATELY after Christmas ends, the retail starts hyping Valentine's Day, which is still two months away at that point. :p

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Retail ALWAYS starts up the Christmas hype IMMEDIATELY after Halloween. That's the way it's always been. But hey, I can top that: back in late spring/early summer, before we even had 4th of July, I already saw Thanksgiving stuff in stores.

    A Breakdown of the Series' Timeline

    It's kind of interesting that Big Bird's nest was, no matter how you look at it, set up in a construction site (which in the very earliest years doubled as a playground apparently), then ATC came along and his nest was pretty much in a tiny little vacant lot next to a gentrification survivor...

    What is a Year Like for You?

    Y'know, I've been genuiflecting today... August is my least favorite month of the year, mainly because it almost feels like a filler month: nothing goes on, it's long, you've already survived June and July and you're just counting down the days till September (which makes it pass even...

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

    I think I've picked up on something they may have very well been an old double-standard from yesteryears. You know how whenever a guy is acting peculiar, or seems disoriented, the first thing you might ask him is, "Are you drunk?" (or, in this day and age, "Are you high?")? I've noticed from...

    Questions about anything

    I remember here last month, I had this dream that I hid inside a new ice cream parlor, after dark, then long after it was closed, I snuck out front, and started pilfering some of the ice cream they had, because their flavors were SO good, so sweet and creamy, and full of all kinds of goodies...

    A Breakdown of the Series' Timeline

    Actually, yes, that's a very good way to put it, I think I can agree with you there, it really doesn't feel like the actual show itself, yet at the same time, it obviously IS the show. And after going back and looking again, the ATC area aside, something about the main street itself (from The...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    So today, I reluctantly relented and submitted my number to Hitler so I could unlock some extra features on YT that are usually otherwise reserved for partner channels (namely custom thumbnails and such). Never got my confirmation code. Tried three times, never got a code. :rolleyes:
