    Anyone into 90s toons and classic 40s cartoons?

    I'm a far greater fan of Mad than I ever was of MadTV. MadTV started out Mad magazine like, but devolved quickly into In Living Color knockoff... not that I disliked it, but there were less and less TV show parodies and more and more character pieces. The last few seasons were completely...

    FIGURE IT OUT: Revival of '90s Nickelodeon Game Show Premieres 6/11

    The worst part is, when there were a bunch near me, they never had anything. Now that I can't get there quite often, they have a LOT of stuff. Completely overpriced stuff, but a LOT of stuff.

    Google Screws Us Over AGAIN...

    Does anyone actually know how to get keepvid to work? Or is there a download service that isn't a complete p-word and didn't cower behind its sheets when the RIAA pressured Google to pressure them?

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    The Mayhem has been a lot more prominent in the last few projects than they were. If there wasn't too much going on in the last film, I'm sure they would have squeezed a number in somehow. But I'm glad they at least got to sing a verse of something at least. That's more than we can say for...

    the "rare treats" of your favorite shows

    You know what one they never show, and they showed it once 2 or 3 weeks ago? The one where they bring home a snake and they couldn't tell if it was poisonous or just a garden snake. Of course, I'm not particularly fond of that one, but it's better than seeing the *&^%$ Arsubia one for the...

    CGI replacing puppets and cartoons :(

    I'd complain, but they've changed the mascot before, so many times too. They had the lame 1990's Extreme Chuckie in their commercials for years. I didn't go to Chuckies that much, and you can't go in without a kid, I'm not extremely connected to it... but you have to remember, they dumped the...

    FIGURE IT OUT: Revival of '90s Nickelodeon Game Show Premieres 6/11

    I dunno, but a hundred of them will buy one small Sonic the Hedgehog figure the way they've gone NUTS with the price increases at that place.

    the "rare treats" of your favorite shows

    I can watch any episode except Nano of the North because that one skips on that defective disk. I never returned it, but then again, it wasn't an episode I was very fond of. How the Cookie Crumbles.... You're Welcome. I HATED Kid's WB's instances of reruns. You'll always see the same...

    Positive And Negative: The Muppet Movie (Opinions on TMM)

    Heh. That's the MOST Bunsen and Beaker in the whole original trilogy. They never had any good movie roles, did they?

    Anyone into 90s toons and classic 40s cartoons?

    That's matter of taste stuff. We already seen the Renaissance of animation, and then the surrealist movement of animation... now we're in the weird pop folk art era that speaks to some people, but others don't get it but it completely wouldn't exist without those movements. I'd liken the...

    "The Muppets" isn't the Muppets

    Mildred was fun, I guess. They really should have used her as a censor lady like Lydia Karaoke in Histeria. That's the only role I could see her in. The thing about The Muppets was that it was the only Muppet Movie (other than VMX, if you count it as a movie) that attempted to be The Muppet...

    Anyone into 90s toons and classic 40s cartoons?

    What made 90's cartoons so special was the fact Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures was made and blazed trails that would eventually lead to Nickelodeon having their first line up of original cartoon programming. Batman TAS came out and proved that super hero shows could actually be violent (Don't...

    CGI replacing puppets and cartoons :(

    Rocky and Bullwinkle was the first cartoon series to be outsourced. In fact, the idea of outsourcing started popping up before that series, and Jay just heard about that idea and how it was cheaper and there were tax incentives... of course, they went to a Mexican firm and immediately regretted...

    CGI replacing puppets and cartoons :(

    This is just a complaint about George Lucas being George Lucas. he's not going to be happy until he's completely destroyed his own movies under the presumption that he wanted them to look like that when he was younger. Now I could get into a whole big thing about it, but he lives in his own...

    Who wants the future Muppet movies to be...

    Agreed. That's why the movie is rated R and all the previews have been of him drinking, doing pot, sitting around with hookers, lusting after women, and basically doing very un-kid friendly things. If, after that, anyone wants to take their 2 year old to see it, they're the dumbest and laziest...

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    It's a shame that they had so many potential Electric Mayhem numbers, and not a single second to do one in. The movie could be Andy Warhol length and we still would have found it truncated. Hopefully this new project has the luxury of having the characters all together at the beginning and...

    Internet Doomsday...what?

    Don't give a darn is one thing. To go out of your way to make things miserable for others... why that's... That's a level of low.

    The "What Seems to Be in Store for Season 43" Thread

    Yeah. It could also be a case of withholding something for the next season. Like that Cookie song we saw the taping footage of. We won't know if it was scrapped until we get word that it was or until the last episode of the season. It still could and should have been internet exclusive if they...

    Internet Doomsday...what?

    Because they're LOOOOOOOOOSERS, Charlie. Complete and utter LOOOOOSERS! I mean, it's loserdom above internet trolling. To come up with the program to screw with everybody just for craps and giggles.... total freaking worthless losers. You know what sucks? When you have NO choice to click...

    The "What Seems to Be in Store for Season 43" Thread

    I said it before, and you all know... I'm not a fan of the self serving celebrity parody of their own songs. I'd rather they just SING their own songs (sometimes with little modifications) like they used to... Sesame Street built their last few seasons on the fact that celebrities came in...
