    Sesame Street composer charged with spreading child porn

    The sad part is, he isn't even the only one associated with the Muppets that did this thing... http://www.tmz.com/2007/09/15/brit-actor-langham-sentenced-in-kiddie-porn-trial/#.TswmWFbNySo

    Dad hears a "racial slur" on Fraggle Rock

    That's just what I said. I never heard it before until this guy pointed it out. I'm pretty sure even hardcore racists don't know about that one.

    Bringing you the Truth...

    Again, a viable, official third party would take years and years to form. Despite the fact that some people feel failed by the Dems and think the Reps have become draconian suck ups to the wealthy, we're not quite there yet. Voters talk a big game, they keep saying they want a third party, but...

    The 10 Worst Muppets?

    Walter's future appearances depend on how the movie goes. I have no doubt we'd see him again, but he'd definitely be a second or third string character. Angelo, however, was a one time thing. He isn't even being recycled as a background puppet.

    Henson Alternative Puppet Show Coming To NBC

    Something tells me that even if this were to actually happen and not be in the graveyard of abandoned Henson projects, it still would only be a midseason replacement that easily gets canned. The premise is something straight out of the 1980's, and I doubt it will catch on, even if the show's an...

    What the "Stop Online Piracy Act" could mean for us USA folks...?

    Net heads would have to be ready for the fight of their lives for anything else. Hackers WILL come up with something else and something better if that actually happened... but if the history of media, and the FCC deregulation of the 90's have taught me anything it's that companies are hungry to...

    Disney's New Muppets Logo

    Plus this thread was started quite a while ago. I have to admit, since then this logo has grown on me. Not the best, but not the worst. I still hate that weird and the poser looking Kermit illustration too. The logo's look has nothing to do with the movie's enjoyment factor or even the...

    What the "Stop Online Piracy Act" could mean for us USA folks...?

    Bill nothing. They don't need that bill to pass to take over the internet. The internet is still the wild west... it's virgin territory where free ideas can be easily spread. And it's big media's intent to crush that, with or without the government. They have their own lawyers and can sue...

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    You lose that quality when you're trying too hard to be current. Some of the worst Muppets Tonight bits were recurring TV parody sketches, rather than the short single skits. They had nothing satirical or deep about them. Then you look at Seinfeld Babies, and they manage to capture the show's...

    Dad hears a "racial slur" on Fraggle Rock

    Even if he was, people would shake it off as Rush being Rush. That's the other difference. He never needs to apologize or give in for anything... not even when he was saying nasty things about the Haitian Earthquake. If Hallmark or Hub displayed that kind of "I don't care" attitude, they...

    Dad hears a "racial slur" on Fraggle Rock

    There's a difference. Rush likes being controversial. He strives to be controversial. Fraggle Rock doesn't, and certainly not a greeting card.

    What would it take for you to stop watching current episodes?

    Ah yes... the gentrification of Sesame Street. No wonder you don't see half the characters anymore. The probably had to move away because the rents went up because the yuppies moved in. Hooper's is THIS close to being a Starbucks in my mind. And the Fix it shop will be a place that sells 10...

    Dad hears a "racial slur" on Fraggle Rock

    This is why no one takes them seriously when there's something that's ACTUALLY harmful. This invites racism.This invites people mocking them for being uppity. The stereotype of the uppity ethnic person will rise and become very negative very fast. Anyone ever see the movie Bowfinger? When...

    Your Thoughts: Jason Segel and The Muppets on Saturday Night Live November 19

    The fact that they left Animal behind for Scooter made me pretty happy. I love Animal, but it's like people tend to think he's the only Muppet.

    New Toy Story Short Celebrates Kid's Meal Toys!

    Haven't you heard? Kids are all complete babbling imbeciles that can't think for themselves and adults are all cynical brain surgeons. That's why we have to hide commercials for candy and kid's meals (and even action figures now because some schmuck wrote a book), but we can show the same get...

    Thoughts: A new modern version of THE MUPPET SHOW on Disney Channel?

    The fly in the ointment is reality TV right there... the fact that it is cheap and pathetically easy to produce (in most cases, anyway... I wouldn't doubt the "Let's worship some lazy tarts that are suckling off their rich parents" shows cost as much as Terra Nova does). If the writer's strike...

    Bringing you the Truth...

    It's all about scaring people to vote for them. That's how the very same Middle East dictators we want to blow up (or help come into power and THEN want to blow up) get into power. I cannot see a difference between the Iran guy with the impossible to pronounce name and Bush. They even...

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    It's been revealed that he indeed got an earlier version of the script before all the massive changes. The "offending" stuff was Kermit being a millionaire (gone), Walter being a ventriloquist dummy (gone), and some other odds and ends like that. The script went through multiple changes under...

    Is anybody else just sick of Ice Age?

    It was ingenious. The movie parodied super heroes in a way no one ever did before... the villain actually starts falling for the news reporter he keeps kidnapping... the villain lives in a completely romanticized world of his own... I can't even begin to describe it. It was one of the smartest...
