    Fraggle Rock T-Shirt at Target!

    It would be quite another topic, but I REALLY wish Disney could hammer out some deal to have Roger either design or have some of his past illustrations from the comics on merchandise, especially T-Shirts. The FR shirt at Target's alright but A) athletic fit isn't flattering unless you only...

    Sesame Street Spoofs coming to DVD July 5

    I really hope that either disk doesn't have celeb appearances take precedent over the other skits. Not to say I don't want any celebs in there... but not to a Sesame Street 35th anniversary CD collection 4th disk extent of overkill.

    The Muppet Mindset

    I've said it before and I'll say it again. I never was a soap fan, but as a cartoon fan, we're seeing the same cowardly, cheap, and pathetic moves out of these billion dollar entertainment conglomerates. No one watches anything but die hards sure... but then when they replace that programming...

    Sesame Street Spoofs coming to DVD July 5

    I'd love for them to include stuff that they couldn't air on the show, myself... especially John and Kate plus 8 and I SWEAR there was a picture of a sketch that mocked the Sparta Cheerleaders bit from SNL in the 40th anniversary book that I've never seen. Looks like Smell like a Monster is on...

    YIKES! Where did THESE come from?

    Over all, even the German set seems to have done one thing right as opposed to the Disney Store Animal... I like how Animal's eyes aren't forcefully jutting out and going in different directions, but rather the same piece of fabric tacked down with thread, giving the illusion that there are two...

    Anyone else think that D A is a bit stuck up?

    I hate when people use it as Photobucket and just put pictures of stuff they own on it and call it photography. That's what PHOTOBUCKET is for.

    The Smurf's Triumphant return!

    Cobwebs are gonna grow on you, you know! They have no intention of releasing any more season sets... there's a lame 10 episode Cartoon Catchphrase collection coming... and judging by what happened with the ALLLLVIIIIINNNN collection, they could just as easily be 10 halfs of an episode. I'M...

    Why Did I Ever Watch This?

    Funny thing about her Baby Gonzo... it was a slightly modified version of the voice she used for Huey, Dewey, and Louie. I think it worked better there, though. But yeah, he was one of my favorite Babies. Actually, more so since I rewatched some of it. I actually dig most of them but Piggy...

    Fraggle Rock T-Shirt at Target!

    If they can have shot glasses, there's nothing stopping them from making Fraggle head shirts with catchphrases or something on them. I mean, a Boober shirt with the caption "Neurotic"? Who wouldn't want that... and for the girls... I dunno... maybe steal from the Charlie Sheen meme and have a...

    Spierigs OFF POTDC

    Happytime Murders is the EXACT movie they SHOULD be working on. Something low key, something that they can get as much indie support as possible... something that will no doubt have simplistic puppets that they could even recycle... something that won't be expensive and get lost in the shuffle...

    In which Garfield is Jon told "Disco is dead you jerk!"?

    On a technicality, Garfield and Friends Co-existed with 4 of the specials (Babes and Bullets - Gets a Life... and only one of them WAS a Holiday special... the Thanksgiving one). So, I'm wondering if the specials were considered redundant with the TV series, or that everyone got too busy to...

    YIKES! Where did THESE come from?

    Are you referring to these? The Europe/Australia ones are notorious for being ugly... actually, the UK set looks pretty decent, considering they're extremely small (it's hard to get a good plush likeness that small). Actually, the UK Animal looks much better than the Disney store version.

    Why Did I Ever Watch This?

    it's not that you don't have a point, and I see what you're saying... but I can't abide by calling Russi Taylor, one of the finest voice actresses around a sarcastically toned "Talent." In fact, I find her Baby Gonzo to be the third closest to sounding like the actual puppet character. Though...

    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    What bugs me about the new episodes is they FEEL they need to teach everything under the sun in the 50 minutes they have. Initiatives are rammed down kid's throats (nature and health were done the worst) and there's only slight asides about letters and numbers. Way I see it, Sesame Street has...

    YIKES! Where did THESE come from?

    I've been a strong opponent of lollipop head Animal for years. He has a shaggy, mussy, floppy fur, and it's not present in the merchandise like it should be. There are some examples of it getting done right, I'm just too lazy to go and look for them right now. I'm sure the rest of the...

    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    I dunno... I remember Bloopy's Buddies (a PERFECT waste of the great Johnathan Winters's talent) and Dudley the Dragon... at least with Dudley, the suit looked like it took a measurable effort... everything else I can't even remember because it left so little of an impression.

    Why Did I Ever Watch This?

    Here's something more current. When CougarTown first came out a year ago, I actually watched it, and liked it... until about halfway through the first season when the characters really became plastic, didn't evolve, and basically... as it's the same creator... gave everyone on the show the...

    "The Draidle Game"

    Buddha wanted to beat up Sun WuKong! Buddha! That's how bad the Monkey King was. At least with Big Bird, the Monkey didn't relieve himself on him... I only know basic bits about Journey to the West (where that Monkey came from) but... ol' Monkey King is beyond frustrating to deal with.

    YIKES! Where did THESE come from?

    I'm hoping come movie time we'll get something with a MUCH higher quality. Were the rest of the ones good looking, or did they all come out looking deranged?

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    Slightly disappointing it is, but hopefully we'll see ones that aren't too dated. I'm surprised too, that they wouldn't just take still frames of the movie and slap them on there... you know, like most movie calendars seem to do. Now what WOULD be great is if they had a Muppet movies...
