    Hasbro's Sesame line to be unveiled at Toy Fare

    I dunno. Even as a kid I HATED the idea of characters sculpted into each other. It really doesn't help much with play time... Elmo holding Dorothy is one thing... but Ovejita is a very energetic character... it would be hard to play with Murray and Ovejita if they're fused together.

    Theories why Bear came to an end

    That, and it doesn't fit today's obsessive compulsive Rainman-esque needs that have yet to be disproved by actual child psychologists. Really... the disclaimer should have said: This was made SPECIFICALLY to satiate the angry older fan base that kept hounding us until we gave them this...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Rest assured you never heard Murray's plea that he felt "horrible" that he did Garfield, because he only did it because he THOUGHT it was written by one of the Cohen brothers. SURE you did. Like there aren't a whole lot of writers named Cohen in Hollywood. :rolleyes: Of course, he was...

    HEY! Wait a second! This wasn't written by the Cohen Brothers! :mad:

    ToyFair 2011 - Fraggle Stuff

    I'm glad they're doing smaller Fraggle Plush... but would it have killed them to maybe start with Mokey? And those puppets don't look all that good.

    The Jim Henson Company Puppets to perform at the 2011 Grammys

    The FCC is a JOKE! It's already "gone" in a sense that they don't do what they should, regulate the business OF communications. Basically any company can purchase as many media outlets as they want (cough cough MURDOCH cough cough), and they don't move a muscle. However, it's their job to...

    The Jim Henson Company Puppets to perform at the 2011 Grammys

    That person is probably just lazy enough to do that. After all, TV should be heavily regulated so parents don't have to raise their kids... like snack foods and everything else besides sex offenders. :rolleyes:

    Your Thoughts: "Pioneers of Television" with Jim Henson

    We got a lot of weird Canadian shows on our PBS station in Boston every so often. I can barely remember any of them, but I can clearly remember Tele-Francaise with the Pineapple puppet (Wacky and fun) and some boring show about some woman talking about the human body works (I wanna say "All...

    The Jim Henson Company Puppets to perform at the 2011 Grammys

    Really, people like that who do nothing but whine and censor everything think they're bleeding heroes... ooh we care so much about kids. Sure, we're not putting an end to gang violence, and tightening restrictions so child molesters can't become coaches, but we'll be darned (pardon the French)...

    Theories why Bear came to an end

    Neither did Mr. Rogers or PeeWee Herman. Having the show IS their job, yes. Was this a television critic or some child's advocate that reads FAAAAR too into things and tears everything with a personality down?

    The Jim Henson Company Puppets to perform at the 2011 Grammys

    And the "You don't get the point award goes to..." I could spend hours lambasting that. I don't want to seem unfriendly, but YOU DON"T GET THE POINT! This isn't some preschooly nonsense that teaches kids shapes or colors, this is a national performance for adults, and any kid out looking...

    Hasbro's Sesame line to be unveiled at Toy Fare

    I can't say I have a beef with anything. Overall, I'm completely thankful they have characters that appear on virtually every episode anyway who never get merchandise representation. Though, I WOULD say I want Murray to have come with Ovejita... I really hope to see other characters froM...

    I think I saw someone from City Kids... some robot super hero looking dude playing a keyboard. But who was thay creepy multicolored turkey Muppet playing the piano and singing? :eek: (yeah, I know... I know... but if I didn't say it, someone else would). But here's what's confusing...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    This was posted while I was writing something else, so I might as well.. Short answer, perhaps, perhaps not. Long answer: If you're paying for it with credit and using more credit to pay off credit YES indeedly doo. But if you have the money and can afford to do such a thing... well, why...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    That's an intense subject, so I'll leave you with a quote.... Remember the Bullwinkle Episode where Fearless Leader snuck into the country? And the narrator says "There are laws keeping you people out" to which FL says "Rules only keep HONEST people out... if you're a crook, you sneak in...

    First look (video) of the new movie!

    You have to let it sink in. It's like a joke that isn't funny when you first hear it, but days later, you'll remember it, and you can't stop laughing. Again, I wouldn't exactly say Muppet Babies... I've listened to roughly all their songs, and it doesn't seem much like them... I dunno...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Murray refuses to do it. I LOVE Bill Murray, but he's in his insufferable "I'm an artist that's so artistic that i don't even have to do anything anymore" phase. I just wanted them to do the animated movie they planned on... and if they can't get the guys from the movie, call up Maurice...

    First look (video) of the new movie!

    There's TOOOOOOO much temptation to see all these little leaks. I really don't even want to see a trailer unless it's with a movie... not even on the internet. Every muscle in my body had to prevent me from seeing that new clip. The song is quite catchy from the 12 seconds I've seen. And...
