    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    Right on! Our talk of Barney reminds me of the Dinosaurs episode that tackled the Barney problem, "Georgie Must Die" where Earl looks to the camera, and says to us viewers (just before punching "Georgie" real good in the face to knock him out) "this is for all you parents at home!" Quite...

    The Chipmunks

    You're right about the copy bands, it is strange! It means more fun for us, but I am amazed it was agreed to, in any case! As for the artwork, I saw the covers for the Happy Hamsters and Happy Chipmunks LPs, and my post at 04-07-2011 02:45 PM in this thread has links where you can see those. I...

    Question about the Hokey Pokey

    I love how mysterious it all is :) It might be! That's why it's such a secret with all conflicting answers and no clear answer.

    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    Wonderful ideas!:batty: Maybe they could learn from each other. I wish you fans here wrote for the show! Well said! PS classic vs new: http://sesamestreetblockparty.blogspot.com/2011/01/do-you-feel-luckey-kids.html I think it would be WONDERFUL if they slipped original clips (from 1969 to...

    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    I don't mind Elmo or Abby, though the writing could be better. But then, maybe that's what you mean, since the writing does help to define the character, along with the performer. Before I mention what the new SS lacks (or new kids shows in general lack) I always point out that I know it's not...

    The Chipmunks

    Thanks for the Grasshoppers info! Maybe I can find audio of it on the internet somewhere just out of curiosity, though I definitely trust your judgement that it's not gonna floor me to hear it. I assume you mean a 1980's pressing of one of the original christmas albums, as opposed to Chipmunk...

    American Idol Audition Tips?

    It is a huge decision, as DW said, but if you do go through with it, I hope you win! :D And though I never saw the show before, I'd be rooting for you if I know which one you were. Actually it'd be cool if I decided you were the best singer before knowing which one was you! But anyway, you might...

    Misheard Song Lyrics

    I heard it that way too, and was amazed it was on the radio, ha! We weren't the only ones, because it was in a book of misheard lyrics called, "Scuze me, while I kiss this guy" (The "Purple Haze" line "Scuze me, while I kiss the sky") and below the line you mentioned from Benny and the Jets, the...

    Why Did I Ever Watch This?

    I never had a chance to see it, so I bought a DVD once, and it has an episode where it's the birthday of Terrence (the bird) and the cat in the hat has a surprise, so he's acting like he doesn't know. Terrence: Do you know what today is? Cat: It's your biiiiiiiiir... Terrence: yeah! yeah...

    Fraggle Reunion

    In a 2004 post in this thread, someone asked if Gerard Parkes (Doc) is still around - well he was in two films that year, and five years later (2009) he was in the sequel to Boondock Saints, and I can tell from the youtube clip that if they do a Fraggle film, he and Sprocket can open and close...

    In which Garfield is Jon told "Disco is dead you jerk!"?

    Thank you! I was wondering for so long! Ha, I'm with ya! I love the real raw rock 'n' roll like nobody's business, but that doesn't mean I can't respect and love disco too! :) As you say, the more the merrier with the music styles! And yes, Garfield will always be really cool in my book...

    Drawing "new" Muppet Babies

    I wish I was a great artist, so I could draw baby versions of: The entire cast of Sam & Friends, Sweetums, Droop, George the janitor, Sam The Eagle, etc...you name 'em! I know in cases like George the janitor it wouldn't fit into the timeline of the Muppet Babies show to make them a baby...

    Question about the Hokey Pokey

    I love Gumby, and I'm thankful Art Clokey's work lives on! As for the Hokey Pokey, I like that song too, and as far as I know, it's not related to Pokey from Gumby - but I've been wrong before :)

    My friend told me about a pokemon scene with a riceball that became a donut in the american version. Sorry if I messed up the story of the translation, but if someone wants to explain, it was funny! :)

    Anyone have an answer for this person? http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0765605/board/nest/159909966 It's about Chuck not being in ESS. And about Lew: Right on!:D He's not asking for much from the world.

    Any Ernst Fans?

    Lew Zealand I love how very very often Lew wants folks to see him throw his Boomerang Fish! Hilarious, and yes, Lew Zealand is delightfully full of his own unique character, and somehow, no matter how zany he is, he seems like he has a good heart and is a trustworthy fellow :)...
