    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    There's one episode of Mister Ed where Ed gets amnesia and forgets that he's a horse. But then why doesn't he talk to other humans besides Wilbur in that episode? There's one or two opportunities where he could have talked to humans, under amnesia he actually likes Mr. Addison, and of course he...

    TV Tropes

    Well, after months of consideration, I have finally joined TV Tropes. I am surprised that my confirmation e-mail didn't come right away (I think it came two hours after I signed up). Usually when I sign up for something online the confirmation e-mail comes right away (though it also took a week...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Of course, there were a number of shows between the finales of The Fugitive and M*A*S*H that had proper finales, like The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bob Newhart Show, and The Odd Couple. And I am bothered by what happened in the Cheers finale. Would it have really been a bad thing if Sam and...

    Old School Sesame Street Live (1980-1999)

    I've only watched the beginning of this, and it's hard to understand what they are saying with all the kids cheering and screaming. I thought Herry's pants in this were plain blue, but I can see many lines, as if they are blue stripped pants. I'd really like to see video for Big Bird's...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    There was a series of Peanuts strips (which were adapted into a segment on The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show) where Lucy kicks Linus out of the house, and at one point Charlie Brown asks why the parents allow it, only for Linus to reveal that their mom is in the hospital (and the parents didn't...

    Silly things you said, did, or thought as a kid

    Back when TV Land started and the commercials said to call your cable providers and say "Take me to TV Land!", I thought that was all it took to get TV Land. Did anyone actually do that in an attempt to get the channel?

    Classic Clips on SST Workshop's Site

    The Roosevelt Franklin clip on here and there is now longer than it had been. Previously on the site, the clip ended with Hard Head Henry Harris getting his letter, but now (probably since the site changed and many clips were updated) we get to see him read the letter...

    Questions about anything

    Are the terms "boy scout" and "girl scout" copyrighted/trademarked/pattned/whatever-the-appropriate-lawful-equivalent is? Because I've noticed a number of fictional properties, particularly cartoons, have scout-like groups that aren't called boy scouts or girl scouts (and sometimes they don't...

    SST 2.0: Forgetful Jones goes to the doctor

    Enjoy this episode of the fictitious series "Sesame Street 2.0", which was an April Fools joke in 2012 concerning a Sesame Street show aimed at adults, with heavy focus on classic clips. Scene 1 Realizing how Forgetful Jones' forgetfulness is more serious beyond just casual forgetfulness...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I've read that one reason why old TV shows were not saved for reruns sake was because people thought nobody would want to watch a program again. But many old movies had been rereleased and were obviously successful (quite a few animated Disney movies weren't successful until they were rereleased...

    Questions about anything

    There's a few TV shows where the openings have something different in each show. But wouldn't it be neat to be able to see versions of the openings without the episode-speciffic elements? Like The Mickey Mouse Club theme without Donald's gong, The Muppet Show theme without Fozzie's joke, Statler...

    Questions about anything

    Ever notice how the majority of Looney Tunes compilation movies and specials pretty much avoided shorts with politically incorrect content, and when such shorts were included, they pretty much didn't include the politically incorrect stuff, even if the shorts were regularly being shown on TV at...

    Questions about anything

    I have (and have seen) a number of video movie guides. How come older ones include all kind of VHS releases (movies, specials, TV shows, compilations of short films), while more recent ones focus exclusively on movies that have been released on video and DVD?

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    First of all, in this thread I've never asked "Did you ever see this episode of...", I bring up things that happen in episodes with the assumption that somebody else on the forum has. Those are two shows that I've seen many episodes of (there's only one Family Guy episode I haven't seen) and...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I'm not surprised about those two 2-packs. Genius Entertainment put out some "Sesame Street Double Features". I wonder if these will be two on one disc, double-sided discs (do they still make double-sided DVDs?), or two separate DVDs (I know that the Double Features used two discs, even though...

    When Will Muppet*Vision Be Removed

    That would be unfortunate. Those are two of my most favorite attractions at the Hollywood Studios. If it is closing for good, I wish Disney would find some way to make the film available for fans, though with the way it's presented it would be very hard to put it on DVD and be the same. I...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    In Back to the Future, when Marty plays "Johnny Be Good" for the 1955 school dance, everyone seems to enjoy it, but by the time the song ends, they all stopped dancing and just give him odd looks. Why the sudden change of enjoyment for the entire school? And what's with Mr. Strickland...

    Silly things you said, did, or thought as a kid

    I just watched that special on YouTube the other day, and I feel like most of the mice remind me of Alvin and the Chipmunks (they're voices are high-pitched). I was wondering if Uncle Lester and the cat were voiced by the same person, but it turns out they're not (Uncle Lester was voiced by...
