    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    Unfortunately, both speculations are justifiable. As far as Ernie and Bert go, many people point out that at times, they can bicker with one another like an old married couple. As far as Cookie Monster goes, SST went on a health food kick in the mid-2000s, and we ended up with the likes of...

    Yet, another Belated Birthday Thread. (D'Snowth)

    I wasn't worried, I still had gotten some well wishes on deviantART, but sorry about your birthday being overlooked... I think those empty chairs from Frank and Louise's wedding may have something to do with it...

    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    It almost seems to me that nobody (and when I say "nobody", I'm generalizing, I'm not necessarily including everybody) is going to be happy unless we just let them think Ernie and Bert are gay.

    Does any one else feel like RPG threads are WAY to constricting?

    Here's the thing, based on experience: Character freedom is nice and all, but one has to keep in mind the an RP is a group effort, so with that in mind, one has to keep in mind any kind of development or growth a character experiences should be done within the consideration of the other...

    Does any one else feel like RPG threads are WAY to constricting?

    Well, it helps to have SOME rules and/or guidelines to RP threads - it's easy for the entire story/plot to be thrown off and disrupted by newcomers just randomly popping in and not being too familiar with the plot. No, it's not always the case, but it's been known to happen.

    Why Is Sesame Street Such A Controversial Lightning Rod?

    Well, when you got such a show that's beloved by generations of kids (and adults too), and has always tried to maintain a level of decency for SO many years, even the smallest little shortcoming they may experience is enough for some people out there (like you say, mostly the media, TMZ, people...

    TV shows only you seem to like.

    I guess I should add WIMZIE'S HOUSE to my list, since so many people here regard it as merely an inferior Henson knock-off (despite Chris Cerf, Norman Stiles, and Jim Kroupa worked on it).

    TV shows only you seem to like.

    Um, both PHINEAS AND FERB and DEXTER'S LABORATORY have HUGE fanbases. :confused:

    Another Stupid movie to Overreact to...

    TWO sequels? Perish the thought. Today's cinema ALWAYS goes for FOUR movies in a series. :p But on a serious note, that's what happens sometimes - a movie will do really poorly at the box office, but sometimes they become cult classics when they're released on VHS or DVD... I'd chalk up your...

    When you need to rant...

    Yeah, if you ask me, obesity is as much of a "disease" as homosexuality.

    Movies You Like But Everyone Else Hates.

    Well, I've kind of noticed RATATOUILLE does seem to get a bit of flack, which is kind of why I listed it... but yes, it des seem like a lot of people really dislike BEE MOVIE, but I agree, and I've said it before, you kind of have to get Jerry Seinfeld's humor in order to really appreciate the...

    Growing up as a kid: - COURAGE THE COWARDLY DOG (a couple of other friends liked it) - COW AND CHICKEN - ROCKO'S MODERN LIFE - Rocky and Bullwinkle (that's right Drtooth, I was the ONLY kid in school who liked Moosk and sqweerill). Especially during middle school, there was only show that...

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

    Likewise, I still don't understand what's the big joke about Big Bird being a lark.

    When you need to rant...

    Don't you just love the world's continual passive aggressive ways to shame overweight people into feeling bad about themselves into losing weight? Now, the AMA has decided the best way to get overweight people to shed pounds is by classifying obesity as a disease.

    Because nobody is allowed to have one "Uh oh moment" anymore.

    Your Thoughts: Baby Bear

    Baby Bear was a tad annoying when he was first introduced, but like Drtooth said, once they dropped the constant fairy tale stigma and let him develop into his own character, then he became a funny and likable character.
