    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    I WANT the to get compensated. By that I WANT it to be available for purchase. I would gladly buy them if they were available. But the simple matter is, no one's getting it, fans or other wise. The same copyright that's suppost to PROTECT creators has been a stumbling block of red tape to...

    Traditional Animation: The Return

    Eisner is a complexity to me. He wasn't great for Disney near the end, but he helped revitalize the company when he first got on board. Without him, we wouldn't have had the new animated movies that brought them back on top in the 90's. Nor, would we have the wonderful Disney Afternoon, which...

    Shows That Have Clips Shows

    TMNT, both the 1980's and the current series had a clip show in the middle of the run. The 1980's version was called "Blast from the Past"- not too original sounding a title, or such an original plot. It starts off with Shredder trying to steal a sacred burial urn of a great martial artist...

    Retro Commercials--What's the Attraction?

    Hey! I miss commercials that weren't complete and utter ripoffs of The Office style humor. They AREN'T funny. The Office is funny because we have talented actors and writers that bring the show to life on more than just a realistic awkward situation level. It's a full experiance to watch...

    Angelina Jolie In Talks to Star in New Muppet Film

    Of course, I'd love to see ANYONE from that show, but they've all gone to the same depths of obscurity that Monty, Dr. Nobel Price, and Sherri Netherland have been in for years.

    Sesame Place Walk-Around Costume Evolution

    Yes. But they didn't look a whole lot different. Not quite the same distinction between an earlier Mickey Mouse Walk a Round, and a more current one. But definately the makings of a walk a round suit have gone through more advancements. I'd say the Current Grover is similar to the...

    Eh, I was just quoting the ol' ALFster's catchphrase. He had that and "No Problem", right? I forget the T-shirts and coffee mugs. Anyone remember the trading cards with odd "Melmac Facts" on the back of them? They were a lot more interresting than just pieces of cardboard with production...

    Saturday Morning memories thread

    I can see though, not everyone has cable, and ABC is pretty much the only place to see said Hanna show. All I care is that we actually have Spider-Man season 2 on broadcast TV. I've heard conflicting reports about CW4Kids still airing it or not. So, unless something utterly amazing...

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    I'd buy the DVD's anyway. The TV versions are all butchered up and highly edited for the 20% more commercial interruptions of today. One time they edited out Snoopy's reaction to Schroader playing War songs, making his depressed howl and exit from the party (which Linus mistakes for the Great...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    I still think the time is right for this film. Not as right as it would have been years and years ago when they just left the airwaves, but with the fans of the show growing up and having kids of their own have some great family feature they all can enjoy.

    New Elmo Live Doll

    Considering the economic crisis we're heading for, it's gonna be a great deal scarier for kids and parents than this doll no one's going to be able to afford can be capable of. That said, Elmo nothing. I want a real working Doraemon... with fourth dimentional pocket and gadgets and...

    Cracks up..... yeah. kids will treasure Viva Pinata long into the future, what with it's less than 1.0 share in the ratings and its 8:00/ 7:00 Central and Mountain time slot. And while they're at it, they can go to TRU and grab all the latest in Viva Pinata products that don't exist. Show...

    Any news on the New Muppet Show?

    The best thing that could happen now would be for Disney to let Comcast or someone else have Muppet Show episodes free on demand. You'd think with the trillions of cable "choices" on TV, one station would be able to bookend the series, even for a little while. But then again, they basically...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    Well, I assume you m3ean something outside of Kidtoon cinemas. Yeah. I'm both surprised and not surprised that EIG wasn't that big a hit. On the one hand, it seemed like the perfect money making idea.... a film all about Elmo. But then again, most of the main audience is too young for their...

    I feel sorry for cartoon watchers, since now we have to sleep in on Saturdays. Other than TMNT and Spider-man, there's nothing interresting left.

    Alf

    Funny story. I remember one day back when I was in college they had "The Photographs of Paul Fusco"... and I thought that that was some sort of side project he did after the show. But luckily I found out it was a different Paul Fusco before I went to the gala unveiling and made a fool of myself.

    Very Brief Cameos: Your Picks for the New Muppet Movie

    Yeah. Much as I liked his early films (the Mask and both Ace Venturas especially) as well as his old In Living Color sketches, he wouldn't work that well with the Muppets. Did like him on Sesame Street, but I'll agree with what he said. His sketch was pretty much made for Steve Martin...

    Any news on the New Muppet Show?

    Family guy was ALSO brought back because they approached Seth Macfarline (or he approached them) to make American Dad. And they said, hey, wanna make more Family Guy? I would say Muppet Show in syndication would work... IF syndication wasn't a festering pit of lowest common denominator...

    Should there be a Sesame Street Channel?

    Though, Spongebob is technically NOT a nick Jr. Show, and was meant for a 5-10 year old audience. But those 2 pop kiddy shows that seriously cannot be beneficial at all are always on top. That and those annoying Backyardigans. What the heck is that? A sweater that little kids wear? And...
