    Archaia Comics enters Jim Henson deal

    Too bad it has to share the preview with Meh... Johnny Test... but still, I've been waiting for an IG comic book for years. Not even since the show was on did we have an official Gadget comic. There are tales of strips in the UK for a children's television magazine, but I've only seen one of...

    Can Sesame Street go to Congress?

    Where the heck was Admiral Ackbar in all this? That was a TRAP! It's the whole we can paint people with a brush, but we'll call everyone else out on it when they do it to us... basically the rules only apply to YOU and we can break them in your face crap that's trying to get them back into...

    The Smurf's Triumphant return!

    EH... that's kinda what I expected all along. At least Neil Patrick Harris and Hank Azaria look good, and I'm hoping they got rid of the weepy brat that couldn't fit it. If there were a theater cheaper than a dollar theater, I'd see it. Why didn't Paramount make THEIR version?

    First Look at Nickelodeon Ninja Turtles

    Well, they clearly are doing the CGI stuff... I'm sort of digging the designs... looks like Don and Mike have actually more dangerous weapons and the logo looks like it was taken directly from the first issues of the comic. The "funnier and ninja-ier" comment could go either way. Quite...

    First Look at Nickelodeon Ninja Turtles

    I find Dregg to be a very dry, uninteresting villain. As cool as Tony Jay is, the character comes off as generic, and I'm no fan of Mung either. Now, I can't say the episodes are terrible... but it seems to me the writers of season 9 either knew they were getting fired, or had a feeling...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    Considering they're blowing it with their main cash cow Pixar (magazine... magazine magazine magazine magazine magazine magazine magazine magazine... Okay, I think I drilled that in enough), they clearly just want to politic and consolidate everything. I find it nepotistic in a way. Now, I...

    Can Sesame Street go to Congress?

    Yeah, but think about it this way... the opposition is so desperate to let them die, they'd send a snake "journalist" that probably baited the guy to say nasty things. 2 wrongs don't make a right... well, they make a far right, sure... But hey, if a PT firing of both that guy and the head of...

    First Look at Nickelodeon Ninja Turtles

    Honestly, I want them to release the rest of the series... but yeah... you don't need to see seasons 9 and 10 of the series. And Nick would probably release it... if not, the rights to the characters and the rights to the old series would put the show in an indefinite limbo. There was a LOT...

    Muppet Babies - 20+ years later

    Even if it does... there are so many insane rights to get cleared when it comes to video footage. I'm sure Lucas would lone out the Star Wars footage, but remember, and I've said this a while now, When Muppet Babies came out, it was during a pretty big partnership between Henson and Columbia at...

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

    Speaking for myself, it's extremely frustrating when people only like you for certain things, and you get massive tumbleweeds when you do something obscure and time consuming. I mean, SERIOUSLY! Why do I do stuff that only 30 Year old Japanese and or Italian people would like or even remember...

    Wild Thornberries DVD (interesting development)

    Crap! I wanted to bring the good news. This is indeed a good sign. I sure hope CatDog or Angry Beavers is next... and I hope it has a nice bunch of special features too.

    Sesame Street burn-on-demand CD's now on Amazon

    I think we ALL want that much more. Besides, weren't they selling these as MP3's anyway? Were those the kind they had to code so you can't burn them yourselves?

    Okay, let's talk about *this!*

    Why can't more of us create a counter group? I have stood on this same soapbox for years, but kids DON'T even like the dry or dated programs they shove at 5 Am on Sundays to fulfill a requirement that doesn't even make sense anymore. Remember the 1990's when this crap took effect? We had...

    Commercial-Free Childhood at it again!

    These parental groups don't know how hard it is to be a kid these days. it's infinitely harder than in our time. They pound kids with homework instead of teaching to prepare them for stress inducing standardized tests... they get hours of homework and no outside play time after and in cases...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    Yeah... we're probably not getting 4 Seasons http://www.toughpigs.com/tms-comic-update/ Yeah... uh... what more can I say other than Disney's politicking with Marvel SUCKS and no one's getting anything good from it anyway. Really brilliant of them to do this. Movie coming up and all, and...

    Commercial-Free Childhood at it again!

    That's the only thing I have really against this. Again, bringing up a good point with Sesame Street (though Pfizer, to my recollection didn't get SS in trouble)... the outrage shouldn't be that they have McD's billboards, the outrage should be that they have to. But hey, they apparently have...

    Can Sesame Street go to Congress?

    But getting back to the topic (I still don't know what Dems stand for, they're too weak to speak up, especially with Teddy gone) The person who said "nasty" stuff on the sting video wasn't even a journalist or editorialist for NPR.... he was just someone who worked in funding. And I'm...

    Can Sesame Street go to Congress?

    I'll meet you both way. Of course, I have to say, yes, we all lose faith, and money does indeed win elections to an extent, but DW has a point... Again, the Dems aren't trying to kill PBS, funding for schools, fire houses, and all that... The Reps are. And if you want to say they're both...

    Can Sesame Street go to Congress?

    I'm wondering if he wasn't forced to say that... after all, they posed as Muslims... and we all know what people hate who. Again, I agree he should have got fired... though, if it was someone on the other side that said incendiary things, either they'd make the "I'm a bad widdle boy" face and...

    The VHS Thread

    I remember a Gumby VHS I used to have that randomly had these 1970's Japanese cartoons (dubbed into English by Ziv international) at the end of it, supposedly as previews. They freaked me out for the longest time... I remember Captain Future, Little Lulu (yep, there was a Little Lulu anime in...
