    Questions about anything

    Ah, but see, they have to use celebrities, because if they use actual criminals that nobody has ever of before, then nobody would be interested in giving back to their communities.

    Lisa and Brian Henson PBS "Be More" Spot

    I saw today, after watching Arthur, that Lisa and Brian have their own "Be More" spot on PBS, talking about Jim's vision for television, and how they continue with his vision by creating quality family programming for PBS (Dinosaur Train and Sid the Science Kid), as well as the importance of PBS...

    What made you think today?

    I got to thinking today, about that short-lived Cartoon Network Cartoon Cartoon Time Squad... I think that was just about the only cable cartoon series (that I can think of) that actually did a proper pilot episode; I'm not talking about one of those What A Cartoon! shorts that was later adapted...

    What made you roll your eyes today thread?

    Yeah, but consider it lucky that EEE was adored by the network, because how often did CN, back in the day, actually renew a series of theirs after the initial four season/52 episode run?

    George Washington High School

    But it doesn't make sense that everything else in the movie is dated: the houses, the businesses, the vehicles, the movie theater, Wilson's Pet Shop, etc... then George Washington High looks like a modern-day high school. Actually, I just remembered another anachronism: when Blotch starts...

    Movies Or Books You've Never Read!

    Yeah, I got the same reaction from other kids in school when I said I hated SpongeBob, like if you didn't like SpongeBob, you might as well just do everybody a favor and go live under a rock or something. As for LOTR, while I haven't read the books, I've seen bits and pieces of both the Peter...

    Your first trip to the movies.

    I think I probably saw that particular movie the most I've ever seen a movie in theaters... I think I may have seen it, maybe, six times.

    Your first trip to the movies.

    I don't think I've ever gone to the movies with just my aunt and uncle (though there did used to be a family tradition of going to the movies the day after Thanksgiving, but that got too expensive). Funnily enough, it seems like whenever just my dad and I go to a movie, we always end up being...

    Your first trip to the movies.

    My parents have told me the first movie I ever saw in theaters was The Lion King, but I really have no recollection of seeing it in theaters; some of my earliest theater memories include A Troll in Central Park (with my daycare group... we WERE going to see Free Willy, but saw ATICP instead) and...

    Twice Upon a Time

    How many other versions are there, exactly? I know there's the raunchy/adult version, and a cleaned-up PG version, but it seems like I read there was also another version with slightly different plot that focused more on the Frivoli guy rather than Ralph and Mumford. One cool thing about this...

    Movies Or Books You've Never Read!

    I'm all for allowing characters to grow (or at least develop) over periods of time; I know some people, like Charles Schulz, has never condoned it, and I can kind of see his point, but at the same time, allowing characters to grow and develop keeps them interesting, and make them all the more...

    Well, the characters WERE growing up. :p

    Movies Or Books You've Never Read!

    I'm with Buttahfly, there's a number of pop culture hits that I've never really have given a looksie at, but there's plenty that I would like to see. As far as some of the above mentioned go, I've read parts of the first Harry Potter book, I just couldn't really get into it; likewise, while...

    When you need to rant...

    That I know, I've seen that kind of stuff before. Notice how pretty much none of the employees even try to help the victim (even when she's visibly having a seizure after being attacked)... heck, even better, notice at the end, the guy who's doing the recording tells the attackers to get...

    When you need to rant...

    I think, when it comes to being overweight, the bullying is more outright and direct with boys, and more behind-the-back with girls... or, at least, that's how it's seemed from what I've seen. I think some of it probably has something to do with the individual person as well, how easy of a...

    When you need to rant...

    For me, it was basically the typical fat kid stuff, so I guess I got off lucky compared to others.

    When you need to rant...

    Hey, you're not alone there my friend, it would have been nice if people adopted the anti-bullying campaign back when I was in school as well; back then, bullying was taken far too lightly, not taken very seriously, pretty much treated like a normal childhood problem... it took a bunch of...

    Twice Upon a Time

    CN seemed to play it very irregularly, apparently, the last time it was seen on CN was 2003, and that also happened to be the last time, so far, it's EVER been broadcasted on TV; apparently, Comcast/xfinity/whatever recently had it available On Demand recently, but I wasn't aware of it.

    The future of Sesame Street

    Well, I mean, hype-wise, yeah, it was pretty big... moreso than Season 35, or Season 30, for that matter. The fives seem to get a little better in-universe treatment... both Seasons 25 and 35 had anniversary specials. Well, Season 20 did too, Season 30 had Elmopalooza, which was supposed to...
