    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    Sesame Street doesn't play anything past the past 2 years. We should consider ourselves lucky we even get Arthur episodes, sometimes from the first season occasionally. Really. Sesame Street is the ONLY show that doesn't show episodes older than 2 years. I've also sort of noticed a couple...

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    (Snickers profusely). Anyone thinking having a not white guy in office would improve race relations is completely out of their minds. Though I think to generalize every Republican as a racist because they don't like them is pretty idiotic. There is some of it, that birth certificate crap...

    Frank Oz: "New Muppets Too Cute"

    The thing is, the writers desperately want it to be. Frank was in the edgiest, most snarkily sarcastic sketch of the season, the slaughtering of the Spider-Man musical. Even the HSM parody had a take that stab at Disney's over exposure of that lame trend at the end. My favorite is still...

    Possible Original Version of FUR from Sesamstrasse?

    Aw, come now! Everyone knows that Germany developed a co-production of Sesame Street 50 years before it ever existed. That's basic fan knowledge.:crazy:

    "A Special Sesame Street Christmas" coming to DVD and CD November 6

    I don't care if this real, fan made, or whatever... I'd rather buy and watch ALL the Elmo's World collections than this. I love Michael Jackson on the cover. You think we can get a Muppet Movie with Steve Martin or Kojak on the cover? Rerelease MFS with the caption "Starring Hulk Hogan?"

    The Muppet Show Comic Book: the Four Seasons V1 out now

    I'm not sure if that was the case. I think it was sudden onset of something unexpected. I don't think a full explanation was written or even necessary. But I loved seeing YET another gang of Muppet doppelgangers. The Whatnots, featuring Miss Tiggy, Dr. Tounge, and a giant carrot that's...

    JOHN K'S "CANS WITHOUT LABELS" BY JOHN KRICFALUSI ON KICKSTARTER

    If I had the money I'd definitely pledge the larger amounts. Heck, had I the money, i'd bankroll the whole dang thing!

    Get ready for some Muppet nightmare fuel

    The ENTIRE MWoO move was nightmare fuel! :skeptical: As..uh.. crummy as some of those cartoons were (I'm looking at YOU, Q*Bert!), the real nightmare is CBS's current Saturday morning line up. Doodlebops? Horseland? That's like waking up Christmas Morning to find those dull educational toys...

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    The problem is that a LOT of writers are very angry and want to vent against those they find oppressive. Most of it is mouth piece. Now, I don't think the common Christian is the target, just the far far far right militant one that wants to take over the country and oppress even their own...

    Ghostbusters 3 finally on the way? You decide!

    Those three are undoubtedly in. I'm very disappointed Rick doesn't want to work anymore, but that's his choice. We're going to have to have a "Pass the torch" movie, though. That's what the original actors want, that's what the writers want, that's what we're going to get. I don't see a...

    Frank Oz: "New Muppets Too Cute"

    I can't believe I forgot this scene. Especially since it was one of my favorites. Can someone tell me how does torturing a tied up Jack Black with sharp instruments and axes for entertainment, singing Smells like Teen Spirit drowned out by his screams "cute?" That was some pretty edgy...

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    And some of those very same people they support, or rather support them are so close to biblical villains that it's almost a riot. Especially greedy man child Grover Norquest. He's the kind of rich guy that can't get a Camel through the head of a needle or whatever that said. Where's the help...

    Ghostbusters 3 finally on the way? You decide!

    Eh... I love Bill, but he's in that "Je suis un artiste!" phase that gets to a lot of aging celebrities. I still love how he tries to weasel out of the fact he did 2 Garfield movies saying he thought the Cohen Bros wrote it, when all he had to do was read dialogue in a recording room and get a...

    Frank Oz: "New Muppets Too Cute"

    Okay... to be fair... Lucas took credit for everything he said he created. But it was the brilliant other people that made the first 3 movies what they were. The prequels were all his. And by that time he was a perfectionist surrounded by Yesmen. But creators can screw up ideas just as well...

    Ghostbusters 3 finally on the way? You decide!

    Aykroyd and everyone else who isn't a petulant old man in an artistic state has finally decided, heck with Murray, we're doing it anyway. The new generation concept doesn't seem too bad, as already done as that was with a cartoon series... mainly because we'll just keep getting jokes about...

    Henson issues statement about Chick-Fila-A

    Here's a non-controversial example of NOT screwing up. The Simpsons has had a wonderful partnership with Nestle for years. We all remember the Butterfinger commercials, and they had a number of tie ins to Butterfingers, including candy bars that not only had Bart on the wrapper, but even had...

    Frank Oz: "New Muppets Too Cute"

    I realized something. As much as I'm disappointed but completely understand what Frank said, Frank said it with a lot of dignity... but most of all, at least his refusal to work on the film Didn't hold up production on it for the past decade, like SOME people. Seriously... just make the third...

    (Spit take!) THOSE exist?!? Oh wait. They do. I forgot, because they're major teachings instead of some lame poorly translated footnote.
