A couple things I've read at TV Tropes that I disagree with (I think most are cases of "Never Trust a Trailer"): The page for the recently-canceled short-lived Me, Myself & I says that it was promoted as a comedy as opposed to a dramady, which might have helped hurt ratings, but I feel like...

Can't believe I didn't report the news here sooner, but in March, there will be Love to Learn Vol. 2. Hmm, I wonder if there's a new trend here, giving volume or sequel numbers to previous releases. We got Singing with the Stars 2 two years ago, and now we're getting Love to Learn Vol. 2, and...

Well, the geography for Ernie and Bert's apartment is also confusing.

I wonder if TV Tropes has a page for shutting places down over slight violations, or if TV Tropes needs such a page. I wonder if the "shutting down over a minor violation" would apply to the Newhart episode This Probably is Condemned, in which after the health inspector inspects the inn, a...

Best Thing to Ever Happen to me. Got it in my head after watching It's Pat. Nice sequence.

In Muppet Treasure Island, when Gonzo's arms and legs get stretched out, he likes it, saying that he might even have a future with the NBA. But in the next scene, Bunsen cures Gonzo of his longer limbs. I guess Gonzo decided he didn't want longer arms and legs after all.

It is a shame he didn't answer somebody else's question on why Steve Whitmire wasn't in Muppet Guys Talking (though I think he did respond to a different question concerning performers who were left out). I wasn't surprised to see him say that he can't respond to the question about Jim Henson's...

Here's the question-and-answer session. Many great answers. https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/7o6bxv/im_frank_oz_film_director_and_performer_ask_me/

Frank Oz posted via Twitter that he'll be participating in Reddit's AMA (ask me anything) on January 4 at 6PM eastern time. https://twitter.com/TheFrankOzJam/status/946441242333741056

The Happiest Street in the World. Listening to this, I feel like this would make a good replacement theme song if they had to create a new one (though I feel if they did it now as opposed to the late-1970s/early-1980s it wouldn't be the same). In fact, I feel this song should have been...

Bob Newhart did not want Bob and Emily to have kids on The Bob Newhart Show.... ....and in Elf, he plays Papa Elf, who wanted to adopt Buddy, having wanted a kid of his own.

A few things about How the Grinch Stole Christmas (a few of which I mentioned in the "what's the deal with....?" thread today): 1. When Cindy Lou Who questions The Grinch stealing the Christmas tree, she doesn't seem to notice the rest of the room was empty. 2.The narrator says that the only...

Thinking about it, I'm remembering that scene from the 2000 movie where Cindy Lou's parents hear him on the roof but assume it's the real Santa so they stay in bed. And another thing regarding the film that I've thought of: The movie expands Cindy Lou Who's role into that of a main character...

Somebody asked who performed the Ernie statue, and unfortunately, he doesn't remember (speaking of which, I know everybody who's been asked doesn't remember who performed Astoria, but has anybody asked Oz?).

Similarly, Gary Coleman and Emmanual Lewis were both actors who never grew past child-size who starred on sitcoms where they played black kids adopted by white families. I wouldn't be surprised if Webster played "follow the leader" with Diff'rent Strokes' concept of "a black kid adopted by white...

I recently got the Once Upon a Sesame Street Christmas DVD. The special was good. Interestingly, when new DVDs are announced, we get to see the cover and full info on the bonus features within days of the announcement, but with this release, they didn't announce the features until closer to the...

That's a show I'm not really a big fan of, haven't watched it often and feel it's a bit overrated, but I don't think Elliot Gould was a regular on that show in the same way that he was a regular on the shows I mentioned (I don't think I've ever seen a Friends episode with him, while the shows I...

One thing I thought about bringing up that I forgot to was the songs. This was my first exposure to many of the songs - including "We Need a Little Christmas", "Sleigh Ride", "The Christmas Song", and many of the songs in the carol sing - and I tend to associate those songs with this special as...

It seems like Elliot Gould might be a television bad luck charm. He's been in the cast of a few shows I really liked (Baby Bob, Mulaney) that got canceled after only one season. And now he's on the new show 9JKL, a show I really like. I hope it lasts another season, but if it gets canceled...
