I've wondered whether that special is owned by Sesame Workshop or an outside company (it was recorded at Lord Grade's ATV Studio). But just because another company owns it (and again, I don't know if that's the case) doesn't mean the company that released A Special Sesame Street Christmas...

Speaking of changed channels, on sundays I change the channel to Fox for Animation Domination, and after Family Guy (and sometimes after American Dad) I change the channel to Cartoon Network for Adult Swim.... Oops, wrong kind of changed...

One good thing to come out of it is that The Weird Al Show got made, even if it would have been better if educational messages weren't forced. Of course that show was only educational so it could be made... If CBS wasn't forced into educational programming, who knows if CBS would have purchased...

Just a day ago I realized that the Sam the Eagle variant is Sam Arrow. It's a shame more Muppet Treasure Island variants aren't included to go along with it. It's just like the Palisades line, where Sam Arrow was released two series before another Muppet Treasure Island variant, and not many MTI...

The ABC Family Channel has changed names and owners many times, though the original owner actually put clauses in the contract that certain changes can't occur regardless of owner, such as having to have "Family" in the title, having to dedicate 3 hours a day to The 700 Club, and having to have...

Actually, even in the early years the channel had plenty of non-Disney programming to offer (like Fraggle Rock, various Sesame Street specials, many Muppet movies and specials before the 2004 sale, Growing Pains, almost every major animated Peanuts production, Abbot and Costello movies, even...

Yes and I was surprised to see that (along with certain other things about Richard's behavior), considering what I've heard about him on The MuppetCast and elsewhere (including the same book). I keep reading that he was generous to other performers (such as asking off on David Rudman's first day...

Hopefully there'll be more mainstream Muppet merchandise (stuff sold everywhere, not just at the parks, Disney Store, and online) when the new movie comes out. I had the same hopes when the last one came out (but at least it was more than when MFS came out).

That was my inspiration for the list of Barney's. I was looking through every page of this thread today to make sure I didn't already ask those "what's the deal with...?" questions about Adam Sandler movies (I couldn't remember if I have here, but I knew I had brought those up elsewhere).

Although I don't expect to get these and the character was an action figure from Palisades, I must say that in a perfect world (one as perfect as Walt Disney World) the chase figure would be Lips. But then again, if they're all blind boxed anyway, what's the point of a mystery chase figure...

It seems like back in the old days of television, most shows would have very few Christmas episodes (and the same can be said about other holidays to a lesser extent), it seems they generally had one Christmas episode for every 4-5 seasons, though there are exceptions (for example, all six...

According to Old School Volume 3 it debuted in season 14, while "Sesame Street, Special" (which was later retitled "Put Down the Duckie") was first broadcast in 1988. And I used to think that the guitar player was performed by Richard Hunt (I've known better for many years, though)...

I've never heard of that movie Our Idiot Brother. So it's weird, I assumed Grown Ups was an ironic title, only to be a more appropriate title than I expected.

A few "what's the deal?" observations about Adam Sandler movies (I know, some of you dislike Sandler....): Shouldn't the main characters in "Grown Ups" act more childish? I was under the impression that they'd be adults acting like children, but then I saw it, and they don't act childish...

Actually, it's widely sourced that the premise is that Arnold and the cast go to the jungle on a school trip in search of Arnold's parents.

Or if you're a big enough fan of a particular artist.

I had no idea of that about digital distribution. Though with the average individual track costing 99 cents to just over a few dollars I wondered if it was difficult to divide that for everyone entitled to residuals, or even if only a few people (like maybe just the songwriter and lead singer)...

So they'd have to renegotiate residuals? I would think his residuals would be the same as old releases of the soundtrack. But whether they'd have to renegotiate the residuals for the rerelease, I wonder if they'd have to let them know of the rerelease. I hope he didn't confuse the question...

Speaking of the "Beam me up, Scotty!" trope, there was recently an episode of The Big Bang Theory where the main characters dress as characters from Star Trek: The Next Generation and their car gets robbed when they try to take a picture in the dessert. At one point they find a place where they...

There's a few things that I wonder if they would qualify for "beam me up, Scotty!", which refers to lines lots of people incorrectly think were said on shows (or misquote, incorrectly combine different phrases into one, or were actually said but weren't said enough times to be a catch phrase but...
