    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Well even with the internet you've got problems, namely a limited audience, as there's a surprising large amount of people out there who don't have regular access to the internet, either because they can't afford it, they don't live in an are where they can get a reliable connection, or they're...

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    When I saw the promos for Suburgatory, I thought finally something different, and it did look good at first, I like that for once in a long time they used a relatively unknown for the lead as opposed to just giving it to some big-name celebrity for the sake of trying to reel in an audience...

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Well, what do you expect? I mean seriously, what IS there on TV to watch nowadays anyway? You've got your choice of either: reruns of classic sitcoms heavily butchered to the point you lose 5% of the show for commercials, modern sitcoms that contain vulgar content and unlikable characters...

    Disney-Muppets...Versus Sesame Street Muppets

    Well, the characters from SST ARE still Muppets after all, so really, there is not misidentification when it comes to "confusing" them with the Muppets. :p But anyway, to clarify what Drtooth has said, when Jim was originally dealing with Michael Eisner over the deal of the Muppets, Eisner did...

    HEH! Work It's been Canceled!

    Although I knew this series was destined to fail (let's face it, men dressing in drag hasn't been funny since Corporal Klinger), because quite frankly, it rang of desperatation because Hollywood has clearly been out of ideas for years that we're getting sitcoms about the last things there hasn't...

    Hubba Wha?

    Does anyone know why Sprout is suddenly playing the current seasons of SST? I mean I tuned in today, expecting to see something from like Seasons 33, 34, or even 35, only to be met with Murray and the Word on the Street, followed by the hip-hop-esque main titles, followed by Chris reading a...

    Days Before Chromakey

    A lot of visual effects done for puppetry nowadays are done with greenscreen/bluescreen/chromakey, in fact, chromakey is pretty much the norm for a lot of visual effects anymore because of how cheap it is... however, chomakey may be cost-cutting, but anymore, it also LOOKS cheap, even in...

    The Weekly Poll #5

    I didn't include Emmet Otter or Christmas Toy since they've gotten recognition in recent years, or those that have gotten a bit of a cult status thanks to YouTube and such.

    Will Sesame Street produce another movie for theaters?

    Thanks! :D Yeah, I agree, it's like with Kermit and Manhattan Melodies, there really were quite a few things missing, I wasn't sure what, but I do think that with a lot of tweaking and maybe getting people like Joey and others to really do some retooling, the premise could make for a good...

    Golden Globes - What's the Point?

    Ah, but didn't Sofia Vergara actually LOSE the Emmy here recently? ;)

    Will Sesame Street produce another movie for theaters?

    And I'm pretty sure they've done that idea before in past... like with Joe Pesci wanting to tear down the street. That actually brings to mind a similar idea I had for an SST movie that I had written in the form of a fanfic several, several years ago: Ernie believes in a legend of "The Giant...

    Golden Globes - What's the Point?

    Well, it's almost time for the annual overkill of award shows and ceremonies to plague our TV sets for the next couple of months or so, and of course, the Golden Globes are coming up right now, but when I think about it, I find myself asking myself... what exactly is the point of the Golden...

    Living With Larry - New Puppet YouTube Series

    Uh... uh... hmm... Well, there's nothing I can do really (since I'm also somewhat guilty of it myself), but I can't help but feel like this is almost a knock off of Steve D'Monster, though I'm sure that wasn't your intention at all, and I'm aware Steve isn't the only purple monster puppet on...

    Will Sesame Street produce another movie for theaters?

    I've said for years we could use a Super Grover movie, and if not Super Grover, at least give Big Bird another movie: Elmo's had two, a theatrical movie (EIG) and a TV movie (CinderElmo), so yeah, give Big Bird something to work with again.

    Abby Cadabby mentioned in "Cinderella Ate My Daughter!"

    Well, even Fran has said that she and the producer agreed that Prairie wouldn't make for a leading-lady Muppet on the show because she's too prissy and Polly Perfect of a character. Well, how often have you and I said the same about Kenan Thompson? Just about the only time they use him in a...

    What is your strangest habit?

    Before we go any further, I would like to point out how disturbing it is that you equate eating a block of cheese with some sort of bachelor paradise. :p But I hear ya, I'm the same way with M*A*S*H.

    Romney wants ads during Sesame Street

    :rolleyes: Look... HERE'S how to fix the money problems in this country... 1. Stop making the penny. 2. Make all sales prices in five-cent increments (i.e. $1.00, $1.05, $1.10, etc) 3. Oblitirate sales taxes. That will solve all of our problems right there.
