    Stupidity Just Won't Quit

    He was on fraud charges EVEN before he started writing those Medicine Wagon books. You know what kills me? We can't so much as advertise candy on kid's programming, which basically funds the stuff, because kids are apparently so incredibly stupid that they can't make their own decisions, and...

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    Of course, with the first film, they were working on the script for years, even before Disney picked it up. That script had quite a bit of polishing to it, and thank frog it did. Somehow, the writers are the ones saying 2013 is unrealistic... there's either something to put us at ease or...

    What's happened to Marvel's Muppets Comic?

    I don't even care about new stories. I'm just happy that we're getting the ENDING to the comic for a change. Why was I so antsy about this? I've heard lots of horror stories of completed comics that were never released due to companies going bankrupt or just cancelling the comics too early...

    The Revolution won't be televised

    Nah, it's not even karma, or divine or poetic justice. It's a clear cut case of hubris, incompetence, and entitlement. A decision that's not even bottom line thinking, because bottom line implies effort and willingness to spend money to make money. What ABC's Daytime D-bag wanted was...

    Penguins of Madagascar on Nickelodeon

    Yeah. After I stumbled on the thing online, I couldn't stop watching it. It's a good show alright, but there's something about it that makes it addictive. I plowed through a bunch of episodes in a matter of days, and got ticked off I couldn't find any more. This show is one of the cases...

    Overused Plots in Movies and TV

    You ever see that King of the Hill one that used that plot? And Bill had the most unflattering version of himself in his story? That was a nice twist. As was Boomhaur's perspective where EVERYONE talked like him but himself.

    Sesamstrasse's new website

    There's a nice selection of Wolle and Pferd sketches there. I'm really taking a shine to them.

    Stupidity Just Won't Quit

    Actually, not every product they advertise doesn't work. Of course, I'm talking about kitchen gadgets. It's a hit or miss ballpark, but a lot of the things they advertise actually do work. I've heard complaints about those ultra-sharp knives they sell accidentally cutting someone's hands...

    Overused Plots in Movies and TV

    Not really a plot, but I find ANY movie trailer that starts with a person's name, i.e. "Jared Butthat was an average school kid, until one day..." is not only overused, but should be completely outlawed, punished by being shot out of a canon straight into the sun.

    How can someone hate Elmo?

    Too much of anything's annoying. I really hated when Disney forcefully marketed Winnie the Pooh over the characters Walt actually took credit for creating. The loveable character was lost in a sea of ugly old women sweatshirts and Pooh dressed up as one of the 101 Dalmatians plush toys. You...

    The Revolution won't be televised

    It's pretty much gotten to the point where ratings aren't half as important as not spending all that much money. Like I always say, Seinfeld was constantly on the verge of cancellation the first 2 seasons... they gave it a chance and it became one of sitcom's biggest hits... so much so, NBC was...

    Stupidity Just Won't Quit

    You know you're basically talking about infomercials, right? That's a ground of stupidity that's been around for decades. The thing that worries me are those Investo-trade/make money off of real estate infomercials that are still on, even when that sort of double dealing get rich quick scheme...

    Threadless Sesame Street T-Shirt Design Challenge

    The worst part is, I've always had more ideas for Sesame Street T-Shirts than Muppet Show ones. I have to sit this one out, not due to an inferiority complex, but that I do not have quality equipment to fully realize a quality rendering. I can do something that looks good, sure... but it's...

    The Revolution won't be televised

    Now, again, I'm no Soap Opera fan by any means, but this has to put a smile on the face of those who are. ABC Daytime's CRAPPY show, The Revolution (that pointless thing they canceled a Soap for... I forget which one, was it One Life to Live?) isn't even going to finish the season...

    The Chipmunks

    (in best Columbo) Ehhh, just one question their, sir... How the heck hard is it for them to release all 13 of those things in one affordable set instead of 15 bucks for 3 lousy episodes like its 2001 again? I understand problems with the original series on DVD, but there were only 13 episodes...

    How can someone hate Elmo?

    I really do hate how watered down the characters in that show are, though. The same characters were present in the superior, but made for a different audience, House of Mouse (and Mouseworks, the precursor that was only short cartoons). Of course, you have to admit, Pete was actually pretty...

    Anyone worried about the next generation?

    When you get older, you tend to also become complacent. There are older people who still want to see things change and welcome the idea of things getting better... but then there's that portion that becomes selfish, nasty, and despises anything that makes them feel old (the younger generation...

    The Priceline Negotiator

    Yeah. He was on some show and complained about it. Seriously... what market wouldn't want to see William Shatner? Even if you absolutely hate Star Trek, he's quite the comedic actor outside of that. I'm very disappointed that &^%$ My Dad says got canned and they keep bringing back the...

    How can someone hate Elmo?

    I haven't really seen Gabba yet, so I can't judge. But Wubbzy has the same sort of humor Nickelodeon cartoons seem to have. There are notes of Spongebob and Fairly Oddparents in it, but more in the taste of a preschooler. I really felt that series was the turn around preschool show, as Wubbzy...
