    Retro Commercials--What's the Attraction?

    Is that the one with Arron Neville? I really can't stand his effeminant sheep voice. He totally slaughtered "I Don't Want to live on the Moon" in a way that sickened me. And people say Yoko Ono was bad. Even in the 90's things weren't so bad. It's this recent crop of 2 schools of though...

    Lionsgate to distribute HIT Entertainment in North America

    Some episodes came out just terrible. Like they had really bad source tapes. Half the episodes look like an illegal fan made e-bay product. I give them credit for continuing the series so far into it, though. I would love to get the box sets, myself. But I'm furious at them for the whole...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    That's a fear I'm glad is put to bed. I actually am not a big fan of any of the movies they've done, and it's not my kinda thing. The thing that excited me about them working on the project is how big of fans they are. And the exact things they talked about in their interviews really exite...

    the scarcity of green grover

    Sad to say, the only time I really saw Green Grover (Fuzzyface) was on the Ed Sullivan DVD.

    Does anybody think you're weird for watching Sesame Street?

    I always felt that Sesame Street was the one thing that would have branded Jim a Children's entertainer for life time. Not Muppet babies, not any of those 80's Preschool videos, Sesame Street. I say that there are quite a few more people wearing SS T-shirts openly out there than I'd ever...

    Retro Commercials--What's the Attraction?

    Simple answer... new commercials suck. They suck suck suck. It's all about how awkward and nervous they can make a situation. They steal humor from the Office and Napoleon Dynamite, and they just do horrible, horrible, "What the heck was that?" things that make me nervous and change the...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    Well, I get the impression that Ricky Gervais is a big Muppet fan. There was a British Office episode in which he did numerous Muppet impersonations. Plus, they do have the occaisional Muppet reference in the US series, clearly something he suggested. I'd also like to see Steve Carell, but...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    Raven I wouldn't mind, only for the fact that she worked with the Muppets before. I like to see "repeat offenders." Besides, I get the fact that Disney's trying to push her out the door, since she's an adult now. She has to be at least 17 now. That said, Robin Williams and Weird Al not...

    Meet Leela, Sesame Street’s newest cast member

    Plus, it's always just so much fun to hear about other cultures out there. I've seen a lot of Indian characters in TV shows lately, but most are sadly just goofy accented buffoons (cough cough Unhitched). the only other positive Indian character i've seen on a TV series as of late is Kelly...

    Lionsgate to distribute HIT Entertainment in North America

    A horrifying cold chill just went down my spine. I like how they eventually handled the TMNT releases, but they left us hanging with more episodes of ALF and ALFtales to release with the wrong episodes as artwork on the covers. They still desperately cling onto the first 13 episodes of Dragon...

    Children's Place to exit Disney chain, posts loss

    Well, one of the last 2 I know have has just closed down. Ironically, not the one I was at yeasterday, where I got a Baloo plush on clearance (2 bucks!) It really is disappointing, but I've always been a bigger fan of the Warner Bros Store anyway. That really killed me, seeing those go...

    Rocko's Modern Life

    I give Joe credit for getting back most of the voice actors (At least Carlos and Tom) but he really should have got back the writers too. It's not that I hate Lazlo. It just could be much, much funnier. Plus, I'm getting bored with people doing bad Indian accents (the elephant) for cheap...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    I'd hate to see more one hit wonders, or flavors of the month or anything like that with the Muppets, and I think these 2 dudes feel that way too. Personally, I though Reuben Studdard's Sesame Street appearance was beyond mortifying. Especially how he referred to one of his "memories" of...

    "A Very Brady Musical" to Premiere in Los Angeles

    I guess they ran out of movies to make into musicals and are going straight to TV shows. Meh. Wake me up when the Seinfeld Musical gets produced. I have to be the only one in the universe that thinks Brady bunch is the most overrated sitcom of all time. Gimme Honeymooners and Get Smart anyday.

    Children's Place to exit Disney chain, posts loss

    We won't have a Disney Store soon, that's what. With all the hannah Montanna, Pirates of the Carribean and Cars merchandise they sell, they're losing money? I have to admit, I'm not a big Disney Store fan, but they have some great stuff there from time to time. It's sad if it goes the way...

    What is your favorite easter cartoon?

    The South Park "Hare club for men" episode. Nuff said. Hillarious send up of "The DaVinci Code" and the Catholic Church. And while I doubt it's appropriate to tell how it really ends here, let's just say there's an unforgettible sequence with Jesus and Kyle. I also love "Fat Albert's...

    Besides Jim Henson's kid shows.....

    Man, there are a lot of great little kiddy shows out there to mention. Clearly CTW's earlier works like The Electric Company and Square One Math were really amazing, and the epitome of educational and entertaining. And we cannot forget the great Mr. Rogers. The name just says it all. I...

    "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" Announced for 2009

    I should have said usually instead of always. My mistake. but Santa Clause is not really the best example. The first one was cute, the other 2 were really not needed. But there are third movies that are the better or best of the trillogies. I personally found Naked Gun 3 more entertaining...

    Meet Leela, Sesame Street’s newest cast member

    It's always amazing to see new talent on Sesame Street. I'm really becoming a fan of last season's new member, Chris. I can't wait to see how this new blood is going to interact with some of the most famous characters in the world. And I feel it's important to teach the culture of a country...
