I remember seeing an episode of a show on The Disney Channel in 1991, but I can't remember what the show was called. I know it featured some kind of animals, but can't remember what animals. Here's what I remember about the episode: A kid character wants a dog, but his parents won't get him...

I wonder if there's a list out there of who all has been the voices of Bullwinkle, Boris, and others since their voice actors passed away (most examples are in commercials). I think I've read that Cory Burton voiced Bullwinkle somewhere (Burton was also the narrator in the Boris and Natasha...

I also often think about how the movies seem to be the most popular and most common of the Muppet productions. I think of The Muppet Show, Muppet Babies, and to a lesser extent A Muppet Family Christmas and Muppet Vision 3D as being just as well-known, but I keep thinking that, except maybe to...

When I saw the title of this thread, I heard Elmo saying, "Guess what Muppet fans are thinking of today? Da-da-da-da!" When it comes to Sesame Street, besides what I said in previous posts, I'm often thinking about Out to Lunch, Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, Follow That Bird, early video...

Today, I was at a flea market, and they had all of the Buena Vista VHS tapes (except for Vincent Van Moose). Now, I've seen all of the "Classic Stuff" volumes many times, my library has the first six, I've seen copies at many video stores, and I have most of them, but the "Funny Stuff" videos...

There's more Muppet stuff that's often on my mind (and I'm sure some of you won't be surprised by what). Among the other things that are often on my mind: What articles I intend to write for The Muppet Mindset. Boom Comics How 1992-1996 and 2002-2004 seemed to be the best times to be a Muppet...

What's often on my mind? The early years of Sesame Street The Muppet Show The Jim Henson Hour Playhouse Video compilations Jim Henson's Play-Along Video

I wonder if the Smithsonian would sell anything it has, at any price.

I wonder if a work could be considered "follow the leader" if it had already been in development but then rushed or released fairly differently than planned because of something similar that became a success. For example, Doug's First Movie was originally planned to be a direct-to-video...

I've noticed that the packaging for every video release of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show avoids images from the live-action segments. Why is that? Okay, it makes sense when they're not pictured on releases that only include the animated portions (and I recently read that there's a "complete...

I got a couple of Donna Summer songs (that I just recently heard for the first time) in my head: "On the Radio" and "Enough is Enough".

I know. It's just that she's been alive seemingly forever, and she continues to be the voice of Granny in new Looney Tunes productions (it's a shame she didn't do a voice in the Mr. Peabody and Sherman movie... I feel she should have been Ms. Gunion).

So is that June Foray doing Rocky's voice in this? It sounds so wrong. And it would be sad if they had somebody else voice Rocky.

I just thought of something (actually I thought about this a long time ago, but just remembered). Vern is short for Vernon, I think, and in Ernest Goes to Camp, Sherman Krater is played by John Vernon. Could he have been cast because of his last name?

After reading this, there's something I've been wondering. It may be slightly off-topic, but does involve the scripts, and I'm not sure if there's a better thread to ask, but here goes. I've seen a few examples of Sesame Street scripts, online and in the 40th anniversary book. And I've seen...

I'd say the only thing wrong with The Flintstones movie is casting Rosie O'Donnel as Betty. She gives a good performance, but is too overweight to be Betty. Another movie I like that seemingly everybody hates is Baby's Day Out (though I saw a clip from Siskel and Ebert's review and Gene...

I found this on the Toughpigs forum: http://www.toughpigs.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Sesame-Street-New-Writer-Memo.pdf Norman Stiles had sent it to tough pigs. It's a guide for new Sesame Street writers (well, obviously it's from the early 1970s), instructing them on how to write for the...

Tell your dad that The Muppets isn't a "remake movie". I was surprised to learn that a lot of people dislike the first one. Maybe there's just as many people who like it as there are those who hate it? I also liked the second one. I like those Pebbles and Bamm Bamm songs.

Been thinking about the infamous "Desert Bus" mini-game from the unreleased Sega CD game Penn and Teller's Smoke and Mirrors. The mini-game involves driving a bus down a single road for 8 hours (and probably the only '90s game to not have a pause feature) without anything interesting happening...

Don't know, but I've heard of people insuring certain expensive items (though most cases I know of occur in movies or television). Somebody I used to work with actually had a Pokemon card insured (it was the Charizard card), and it ended up being stolen. So I guess if you can insure a rare...
