I'm with you on modern Simpsons. The movie (which I thought was great) was a real shot in the arm for the series. And I'm with you on Family Guy (& co.) too. I still watch Family Guy, mostly because my students do and I like to stay up on it. And maybe once per episode there's a really...

Well, as they say, familiarity breeds contempt. Sometimes people start hating on something just because it's not new to them anymore. Of course, sometimes quality does decline. But you know, when I was a kid and the quality of something declined, I just stopped being interested in it. I...

I don't think this was meant as a criticism of fan-fiction writers so much as a general expression of frustration with "fandom" in general, though there certainly is that aspect of it. But really, I do understand this frustration. A lot of people just can't find enjoyment in any new iteration...

I believe I quote Conan O'Brien when I say, "LOOKS GOOOOD!"

And what an evening it was! Thanks for posting it, Ryan!

My full write-up has been posted at The Muppet Mindset. Thanks, Ryan! http://themuppetmindset.blogspot.com/2011/07/evening-with-steve-whitmire-and-kermit.html

Wow. We just got back from seeing Steve and Kermit, and I don't think I'll ever stop smiling! I will post more comprehensive comments soon, but let me just say that I will be forever grateful to the woman who asked the last question of the night. She asked if we could close out the evening by...

I'm so flippin' excited about it!

I am in Atlanta this week, and I am GOING! Final Harry Potter in the afternoon, Steve and Kermit in the evening. OH HAPPY DAY! :excited:

YES! I care deeply. But you probably knew that...

First off--YAY! Love this trailer, could not be more excited. Secondly, I loved the Fart Shoes joke! Not because it was a fart joke--because it was a commentary on fart jokes. And because it followed the line about "artistic integrity." Perfect irony. It reminded me of the "not stooping to...

Hey folks! First post on the new forum--looks great around here! I don't know if any of you saw this, but Conan featured a local commercial from New Orleans tonight that was pretty funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKe7rlsY3OI Then his people created a contest for fans to recreate and...

That was fan-flippin-tastic! So happy! I also love the fake movie poster for "Green With Envy," especially the "felt" pun. Wokka wokka! November cannot come fast enough!

You know what makes me feel old? I actually remember that commercial from when it first aired!

Just spotted this at aintitcool.com http://www.aintitcool.com/node/49644 The teaser poster for "The Muppets"--nice to see them in all their glory, and I like that the poster just focuses on the Muppets themselves. And I think this lends weight to the idea that a teaser trailer is not far...

That was all kinds of adorable. More like this, please!

They seem to have last summer's episodes, so I'm guessing they get the new ones when they are released on video.

And "Hold on Loosely" would be "Hold on, Lucy!"--the sequel to "Hang on Snoopy!"

Amazon has UHF for about seven bucks. I don't actually mind if they cut a season in two for Futurama as long as they keep making them. It seems in line with how they do South Park--14 episode seasons for that show, and it's been on for a long time. Just keep them coming!

Honestly? I was just proud of the rhyme "Muppet" and "one-up-it." But I had to work hard to find something in my collection that I would be willing to use, and Weird Al ranks equally high in my affections. So that's the story there. But no, I don't think I could actually rank those two...
