    Barney the Dinosaur creator's son arrested for attempted murder

    It's like the Smurfs. If you don't like them when you're younger, chances are you're not going to care much for them unless you're a huge Eurocomics nerd. And even if you are, chances are you'll go straight to Tintin instead.

    Funniest Wackiest Zaniest Sesame Sketches

    How about the skit where the kid asks the not at all plagiarized from Terry Gilliam campy photos if they've seen his "No?" Or, more recently (well... relatively) where Kingston Livingston bothers Maria until he gets to have a jalapeno, only to have a seizure, fall to the floor in pain, shoot...

    Get ready for some Muppet nightmare fuel

    Friendly response. You're generally the only one that didn't like it, and you're going to get a lot of justified flack for it. All I'm going to say.

    NO more Finger Kissing Chef, PLEASE!

    It's time for us fans to put our foot...errr... feet down. Far too long have we been polite about this: It's time to take this horse to the back of the barn. Face it. It's the single most overused stock Muppet poser photo out there. Even more so than the lame folded arms wearing glasses...

    Muppet Hot Wheels "Pop Culture" collection 2013?

    The one thing Disney really needed to have doen when they took over the Muppets was to toss the 1990's poser photos away and start fresh with all new ones. They did to some extent. These cars use a new Piggy and Kermit, Gonzo, and (I think) Animal. But I agree... they're straight forward...

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    Not even a Bluray release. WOW! That's seriously bad as far as theatrical movies go. I'll say it a millionth time. What the heck is stopping the Riff Trax guys from doing a commentary on this? The world would be a great place if some professional movie hecklers got a hold of it. It can't...

    Barney the Dinosaur creator's son arrested for attempted murder

    I once read that the real life Christopher Robin grew up to be ticked the heck off at having a children's book character based on him. Still... you could imagine the bullying that kid must've got. Like I said, if you were born around 1990, you probably grew up with the guy... if you were born...

    Ted Sequel Announced, Wahlberg CoHosting 2013 Oscars with Seth Mcfarlane

    Actually, Peter's voice is just a bit higher. Ted's voice is more the tone of Seth's natural voice with a cartoony Boston accent affected to it. Seriously... this movie was AWESOME if you live in the Boston era. Especially the sex with Bostonian women gag. I only wish I was there on one of...

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Thread

    I tell yah... new cartoon fans are spoiled to some degree (other than the well over a year long wait for the second season of the new Scooby series, that is). I really remember Kid's WB's insufferable wait until a sweeps month for up to 3 new episodes to make 13 episodes last from September to...

    Taz-Mania! It's about freaking time!

    I never quite understood why Warner Bros was having trouble releasing the 2 shows with the characters they overmerchandise the most, Taz and Tweety. We got that one first season of Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries on DVD and nothing about Taz-Mania since VHS. Seriously, Taz and Tweety are the...

    The Cat In The Hat Knows A Lot About That!

    Dora is far worse. At least Martin Short is so exuberant in his performance that it carries the show (I'm a fan, so I have a bias). Plus, it seems they managed to avert the dreaded "asking questions to no audience only to answer them" bit, with the exception of the fish's guessing game that...

    Sesame Street comics coming fall 2012 from Ape Entertainment

    It all depends on the writer. I can see, at the very least, someone sneaking in someone obscure in a crowd scene. I'm sure we'll see a lot of the main core cast at first. Who knows what we'll see if this becomes a hit?

    Fraggle Shoes Coming Soon

    To add to the poorly drawn face that took 5 minutes comment... it looks suspiciously like the Animated version of Gobo with a 'Fro. but I've seen expensive shoes that are named after cartoon characters that don't even have a face slapped on them, and you're only able to tell they're that...

    Muppet Hot Wheels "Pop Culture" collection 2013?

    The Electric Mayhem Bus- absolutely wonderful The other stuff... meh. I have 2 cars in different scale with that very same stock picture of the Swedish Chef from Winner's Circle, and they're better than that. The silkscreened images of things cars are alright, I guess... die hard die cast...

    Sesame Street comics coming fall 2012 from Ape Entertainment

    And we have a confirmed month in which these come out in. April. Great... that's when Boom starts up Regular Show.

    Taz-Mania! It's about freaking time!

    You'd think Martin Short's star power would get that thing a real, proper release... but then again, Warner Archives manages to at least get some of these obscure HB shows out there for better or worse. I don't see why we need Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kids (the cartoon that focuses on an...

    Addendum... Tom and Jerry Kids and an MOD Completely Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley too

    "Rainbow Connection" on ABC's The Neighbors

    Sounds more like author appeal if anything. The show does feature someone that wore a lot of Muppet shirts on Still Standing.

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    Yeah. Arthur did bite a little of the Muppet potential, I feel. I was really worried about an Elf/Looney Tunes Back in Action situation where more people would go to the Christmas film than the franchise relauncher. But really, it was that second week in that hurt the movie. Hopefully we'll see...
