    Romney wants to cut funding for PBS and Sesame Street

    Fox hates anyone that isn't kissing their butts and agreeing to their far far far right extremist P.O.V. Everything that's for kids is some evil brainwashing conspiracy, even when they don't even bother doing the research. Like when they whined about how The Secret of Arriety is anti-1% when...

    Romney wants to cut funding for PBS and Sesame Street

    You know what the best part is? Best being used in sarcastic tense? Now Romney's attacking Obama for attacking him for making a dXXXish comment in the first place, essentially turning his gaffe into someone else's. All with the laughable ideal of yeah, he's complaining about me wanting to cut...

    SW has been good with online clips. They didn't even demand fans take down their grainy old video taped versions. But on the vein of celebrities, and I kinda mentioned it before... I miss when everything was a surprise. Now we know when everything is, and again, it's an internet issue. But...

    Adventure Time

    If I have one complaint (other than the fact Finn is Rotocast), it's that these things should have came with figure stands of some kind. I assume the Regular Show ones don't either... I'm also not quite a fan of Finn's floppy arms, as show accurate as they are. He can't hold his sword up...

    Romney wants to cut funding for PBS and Sesame Street

    I can understand why they used it. It's the one part of the debate where the president was paying attention. Seriously... weak. There's a LOT of dirt on his secret illegal account. Oh crap. I shouldn't have said he was a customer! Oh, crap. I shouldn't have said it was secret! Oh...

    Well, sort of sort of. Kids know who Cookie Monster is, definitely. Grover's utilized quite a bit. Oscar toys are all over the shelves. It's the fan favorites like Sherlock Hemlock that they'd have problems with. But the older fans know who they are, and will watch the show with their kids...

    Help Save British Fraggle Rock Episodes

    [bonks head on desk rhythmically in a Don Music fashion] Wiping! Wiping, wiping, wiping, wiping, wiping, wiping, wiping! So much of Britain's television past was destroyed by wiping. A lot of shows were barely saved by the stars of the shows themselves. You'd think Henson would have at...

    Things you miss

    Elmo is a celebrity in his own right. Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Ernie, Bert, Grover, The Count, and Oscar are very well known as well. More people know Sesame Street Muppets than Muppet Show Muppets. I don't really feel they need to emphasize celebrity and spoof segments, but it has to do...

    Romney wants to cut funding for PBS and Sesame Street

    Someone just posted that, like 2 posts ago... Yeah. Attack Romney's crappy MA record instead. He left us in DEBT... heavy debt that it took a Democratic governor 2 terms to sort of fix... and he's actually doing a pretty good job now. Not to mention the fact he basically used MA to get him...

    Things you miss

    It's SS's attempt to swing people away from the cable competition. I like the parodies, I like the guest stars on the street, but it seems that they're marketing them over the existing characters that are arguably more famous than half of them. Elmo alone has had a steady career for almost 30...

    Romney wants to cut funding for PBS and Sesame Street

    How come NO ONE is attacking Romney's crappy record in Massachusetts? Or the fact that Karl Rove is still in the picture? Jeez. No wonder Obama basically threw the debate. EDIT: Watch the opening of this Daily Show. There's a brilliant sketch about it. And guess why there's such a...

    Hey. At least people remember he was on the show, and it took the spotlight away from Elmo for once.

    Romney wants to cut funding for PBS and Sesame Street

    Like I said, the Neo-Cons. They took over the party, they have a strangle hold on it, and now they've been bamboozling the poor with Trickle Down fairy tales for decades. They don't want to raise taxes on "job creators." Good. Then raise taxes on all the big businesses, since they aren't...

    People Who've Remade Their Own Work

    If Sgtfloyd didn't post it, Frankenweenie is usually on special edition Nightmare Before Christmas DVD's. I saw it once, and I remember enjoying it on the small budget parody B-movie student film level, but the new movie looks much more interesting and engaging being stop motion. Seriously...

    Romney wants to cut funding for PBS and Sesame Street

    Her attitude is atrocious. love how she was on the defensive about being a housewife when others called her out on being a rich housewife who is so well off, she doesn't need to talk about funds, like she can relate to every single stay at home mother that has to and has to struggle with a...

    The Chipmunks

    It's an international market thing. The US didn't have the 11 minute programming block until [adult swim] and shows like Harvey Birdman and Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Now it's starting to become normal-ish... at least on CN, and they show the 11 minute shows in half hour blocks usually. But 11...

    Of course, the Reps have done it in reverse. They've spent fortunes on candies, sodas, and junk foods, and they're cutting out the stuff we need so they can keep the things they want.

    In regards to politics, both sides have pet projects, it's just tax and spend raises money for said pet projects. I needn't tell you what the last administration's pet project was, but it was funded by reckless borrowing and drastic cuts to local aid among others, all to keep their other pet...
