    The "You know what?" thread

    I hadn't played the game in a long time. I was thinking maybe various characters are put on driving mentions and you have to complete tasks before the rest to, which sounds like a race to me.

    The "You know what?" thread

    Simpsons Road Rage is a fairly good game. The only real disappointment I have is that I expected it to be a Simpsons go-kart game like Mario Kart, and instead, we do missions instead of racing (well, I think there's a little racing). Actually, I think many of the more recent-ish Simpsons...

    The "You know what?" thread

    It seems like most of the Simpsons video games are widely despised, I think it's because many of them are frustratingly difficult, not sure off-hand if it's anything else (I should go back and rewatch The Angry Video Game Nerd's reviews of the games and The Nostalgia Critic's "Let's Play" of...

    Questions about anything

    There's this song, "Summertime, Summertime", I was listening to it on the radio last night, and for a long time, I mistakenly thought it was titled "Suppertime, Suppertime". Here's the song in question (since there's a lot of songs that tend to have "Summertime" in the title in a somewhat...

    Little things we've noticed

    Maybe the water and bubbles wouldn't work and he just didn't use the soap. Or maybe it would have worked if he wasn't in the bath tub with so many other Muppets. Or maybe washing out the green requires a special kind of cleaning supplies, so a simple bath wouldn't do it.

    Bring Your Own Can Night

    I saw in the season 12 program guides for one episode, I think 1564, Buffy and Cody ride inside Oscar's can while Bruno transports them. Considering that episode and that this is from season 12, I wonder if that was an early concept for Bruno, to also transport the adults via Oscar's can (and...

    Little things we've noticed

    And now to continue on from my last post,where I said that it seems The Muppet Movie helped determine who the "main cast" is and order of importance and popularity... After The Great Muppet Caper and The Muppets Go to the Movies, it seems like there was a period where they shortened their core...

    Little things we've noticed

    It seems like The Muppet Movie kinda helped determine what Muppet characters are among the core cast and the order of character importance. Obviously, Kermit is the most important, but then Fozzie and Gonzo (and Camilla) are the first two to join him on his trip, and they kinda seem like a trio...

    Any Ernst Fans?

    One possibility I just thought of would be that maybe Reuben forced Ernest to give him a number where he could reach Nash. Of course Reuben doesn't seem that threatening to Ernest until after Nash's phone call, where he informs him that he works at a bank and promises him some money if he can...

    Nick at Nite Thread

    I'm remembering that for a few years, TV Land wasn't in the TV listings. Was it left out of most TV listings? Because I recall a special promo on the channel, where the announcer reads a letter from a viewer asking for a guide to the channels schedule, and the announcer mentions ways to know...

    Any Ernst Fans?

    Maybe I asked before, but in Ernest Goes to Jail, how are Reuben and Nash supposed to be having a phone conversation? Did Nash call the jail and ask for Reuben (maybe using a different voice or name), or did Reuben happen to know the number he could reach Nash at (when neither of them knew...

    Muppets Tonight: What went wrong

    I want to say it was too much focus on new characters (though I do like a lot of the new characters, including many who barely if ever made it past the shows cancellation) and not enough focus on old characters, as well as the lack of full musical numbers. But then again, were casual fans (not...

    The "You know what?" thread

    At the end of the Back to the Future Comic Book issue "Time Served Part 2", when Marty puts the map togehter and then is found by Uncle Joey and Biff, Joey seems to be the intimidating one while Biff seems to be his "nice" 1986 self. In that panel, he's shown taking a drink from his canteen and...

    Will we get a Sesame Street TV Special to honor the 50th anniversary in 2019?

    Another idea that would make for a good 50th anniversary special or home video compilation would be one showcasing the favorite moments of the cast and crew (hopefully they would consult the recently-let-go cast members about their favorite moments). I wonder if there'd be much overlapping (I'm...

    The Leslie Mostly Show with Guy Smiley

    As somebody who would want every recurring character on a commemorative DVD set, I agree that I wouldn't be too upset if Professor D. Rabbit was left out. Or most of the real obscure/failed '90s characters.

    The Muppets and YouTube.com

    Somebody posted this clip of the credits from the video Muppet Treasures, though it's admitted that the credits were typed by the user itself (at first I overlooked the fact that the credits were in a different color and font from other videos in the series, but thought it was interesting the...

    Will we get a Sesame Street TV Special to honor the 50th anniversary in 2019?

    I thought of something that would make an awesome DVD release for the 50th season (though it doesn't have to be for an anniversary): A release featuring clips of every single recurring Muppet character, no matter how minor or obscure or liked they are. One thing that'd make a good bonus...

    The Leslie Mostly Show with Guy Smiley

    I feel they're interesting (and not just in a "I'm so happy to finally see this rarity!!!" way), but I have a certain "no recurring character/recurring segment left behind" mindset, feeling that if the shows being celebrated, all recurring characters and recurring segments, no matter how few...

    The Nostalgia Critic Thread Lives Again!

    Did that movie really bomb at the box office? I thought it was always successful, not just after being released on home video and broadcast on television enough to become a cult hit. This is also the first I've heard that so many people on MC hate the movie (must have missed all the posts), I...

    Surprising Celebrity Ages

    In this day and age, I don't think anybody looks their own age anymore. I'm 33 but look like I haven't aged since I was 18. For years I've often been surprised to learn ages for people who I thought were either a lot older or a lot younger. These days if somebody asks me how old somebody looks...
