    Animation Conversation

    Well, my standpoint on that is this - unlike the past generation of cartoons and animation, especially as far as TV shows and specials are concerned, there's just not a lot of INTELLIGENT writing in cartoons now as there was then. For me, the most important aspect of any successful program...

    For OUR Convenience...

    Indeed, and it focused a bit more on characters' issues as opposed to antics, but even that was something that slowly began to surface in Season Three like when Prawnie was sick of feeling like he was still in the shadow of That Announcer.

    What Does LLC Stand For?

    I'm aware that INC is short of incorporated and CORP is short for corporation and what not, but what exactly does LLC stand for, and is it corporate-related as well?

    What would Jim have thought of today's SST?

    That's exactly what I was saying - he wanted it to be an inner city street, and look as realistic as possible, insisting that the steps of the stoop made of cement as opposed to wood (which would've been more economical)... While the set does look realistic today, NOT in an inner...

    Hal Miller, the middle Gordon

    Probably the same reason Richard Dawson stayed on Hogan's Heroes for all seven years, even though he hated star Bob Crane and was difficult to work with. Or the same reason Vivian Vance and William Frawley played weds on I Love Lucy though they hated each other in real life. And so on and...

    Could Baby Bear be autistic?

    Actually, for the three-and-a-half comment, I was refering to Elmo and comparing his vocabulary to those of your average three-and-a-half year old child in our reality world as an example.

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    Yeah, I only saw TCBASS on Disney Channel as a kid, and as a matter of fact, I have an centuries old tape with Halloween cartoons taped off TV on it with an episode of the show for some reason; according to the episode guide, it's the second episode of Season One, but again, it has the...

    Could Baby Bear be autistic?

    Well, you have to keep in mind that Baby Bear (and the Bear family in general) is directly from the classic fairy tale about Goldilocks and the three bears - what did the bears like to eat in that story? Porridge. So, that probably serves as a backdrop for Baby Bear's favorite food, now that's...

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    I managed to find it on ThemTube... and that made me cry watching it again, because it was even more emotional than I had originally remembered it being.

    Anyone else besides me having time trouble?

    Yes indeed, the time is accurate once again.

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    I don't think so, if I remember that was one of the movies instead of a TV special. Again, I just remember it being about a friend of Linus having cancer, and how emotional a special it was... if I recall correctly I think the climax of the special was the real tearjerker because her hat...

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    Same here... when it comes to short-lived shows, I don't mind "complete series" sets of those, because it makes more sense than to release a long-running show on complete series sets at jacked up prices. On another note... I keep reminiscing about one particular Peanuts special from my...

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    More than one obviously, as I've seen videos on YouTube of the opening credits, and they've been listed as "Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show: Season One Opening", "Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show: Season Two Opening", etc. It seems like when it comes to old cartoons, they always use ONE specific...

    Question about Jim Henson's Performer Credits on SST

    Some of it might be modesty... then of course, sadly there's occasions where people don't get any credit at all, and spend the rest of their lives trying to clear the air about it; one example is Bewitched - Sol Saks was recruited to write the pilot episode of that show, and as such, he is...

    Question about Jim Henson's Performer Credits on SST

    Slightly OT, but I was under the impression that maybe Jim felt he didn't need to take credit for something that by then most everybody was aware he was responsible for... I don't even remember seeing him being credited as performer on TMS, but I'd have to look again. And you're right, the...

    Pizza and grape juice

    It's actually a lot more common than you realize. Generally, pizza and grape juice (or grade soda even) go together as much as cookies and milk; personally, I usually drink some kind of juice with my pizza (not necessarily grape, but usually some kind of berry flavor). Being from the south...

    Chemical Dependency No More

    Well, that's to be expected Davo, so I wouldn't feel too bad about that, I'm sure it's normal for anyone to experience moments like that.

    The "I Saw Something REALLY Weird Today" Thread

    So we were at a buffet for supper earlier this evening, and believe it or not, at another table not too far from ours, there was a trailer-trash couple making out right there at their table. They must have gotten mixed up and thought they were in their trailer... or hotel room... or whatever...
