    Hulk Hogan's Rock 'N' Wrestling voice artists

    A funny side notion, since Capt. Lou would of course go on to voice everyone's favorite video game plumber about a couple years later. I saw some of this show on youtube... and I really don't think I missed much. eep.

    New George of the Jungle show?

    Bump.... Preview of the new series As the Japanese would say... "MAZUI!" This looks pretty terrible. Like they just slapped a famous, established name onto a cheesy tv show. But in GOOD news, Looks like the complete series of the original will be on DVD in Febuary.

    1970 Seseme Street RECORD on CD?

    I'm sorry if this isn't any help, but A new distributer for SS Cd's has arrisen. Considering how they've released the Fraggle CD recently, there may be hope for classic SS music fans. But we don't know what's happening as of yet.

    Claymation Bert and Ernie voice question

    nope. Europe. Though I don't see how they can't use them as wrap arounds either on the show or for the network. I mean, a short 30 second Ernie and Bert interstitial between programs would be great. Here's the more important question... are they really going to do this?

    Abby Cadabby Balloon in Macy's Thanksgiving parade

    I was watching, I think, NBC, and they were talking about inflating the new Thanksgiving day balloons. This year, we have Shrek (and a Shrek plush for sale at Macy's), Hello Kitty, and Abby Cadabby. Now, this is pretty far for a character to come in just 2 seasons. It took Grover 30 odd...

    Sesame Street under attack for airing McDonald's commercials

    Indeed. Corporate America wants to get everyone they can fat. Not just the fast food companies. One way, they can sell health shakes and pills and prey off the fatophobic, and in the other way, the people who don't want to lose weight can keep buying the cheap stuff. I really think the...

    In what universe are today's kids' shows too "sugarcoated"?

    Only good thing about that show? Ludwig VonDrake is in it. I'm disappointed with all the Mickey's Clubhouse merchandise they can't make a Ludwig figure or bean bag or something. Talk about your under appreciated Disney characters. Only one to get it worse is Gyro Gearloose. He only...

    In what universe are today's kids' shows too "sugarcoated"?

    I feel the 90's saw a real revolution, and we must all agree to thank Nicktoons for that. Ren and Stimpy, Doug, Rugrats (but especially Ren and Stimpy) showed that cartoons can have an edge to them, and they can be created by someone. Even with Tiny Toons, which led to Animaniacs, they were...

    Sesame Street under attack for airing McDonald's commercials

    (Hugs Heralde) Thank you. Banning is only going to make the problem worse. What we don't need is Cheeseburger speakeasies. But as I said, while I'm not a fan of it, they are sadly the least commercial of all the other corporate sponsers on PBS. If anyone has any episodes from the...

    "Elmo's Christmas Countdown" - December 23rd on ABC

    (slaps knee) AHA! Confirmation of airtime. And a whole 2 days before Christmas as well. Wowee! Good to see the strike hasn't affected it. I can't wait to see them on a non-PBS primetime special again.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School Volume 2

    Depends. If it featured a certain Actor, the estate of such actor has been known to repurchase them. But that's fifth hand information and hypothetic. BTW, Target (or at least the one I was at) has this set. The retail price? 25 bucks. So if you don't have it yet, and you don't have so...

    Bip Boppadotta t-shirt?

    http://www.kurtsshirts.com/shirts/fatcatsat.html Okay. This has to be a bootleg or unofficial. Judging by the other shirts on the site, most of them look unlicenced. I doubt SW would have such an obscure segment as a licenced T-shirt.

    Sesame Street under attack for airing McDonald's commercials

    I was saying, it would be great if PBS didn't need any of these advertisements---errr sponsers. or even better. if they were the quiets sponsers and just had their logo flash at the end saying "we are supported by___________" like they used to do locally. McD's or anyone, this is a pretty...

    He she and It?

    I had a feeling that was her name. I just don't recall seeing it at all. I was really surprised that they used such an obscure cartoon from the 70's on a recent podcast.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School Volume 2

    Hmm. well then, at least we have confirmation on this. WOW. This set has so much more than the first, and yet, it costs less than the last one as well. I paid over 35 bucks for my copy of v1. Nice to know they sold this one for only 30 (and it was on sale this week for 27 bucks). I had...

    What was the last DVD you bought and why?

    I finally found the DVD release of Disney's Teacher's Pet yesterday. It was 10 bucks at KB toys. I was about to get Ghost Busters volume one for the same price. I like the Columbia Real Ghostbusters better, but I seem to remember liking the filmation one. That said, Teacher's Pet is one of...

    Sesame Street under attack for airing McDonald's commercials

    Personally, as I said much eariler, the question shouldn't be that McDonalds and SS should come under fire for having a partnership, but that PBS should come under fire for having commercials in their "non-commercial" programming. But I'm sure a three year old won't see a 30 second cryptic...

    Sesame Street under attack for airing McDonald's commercials

    I will say one thing. At least they don't try to cover up an advertisement for their product with a "quick question" or "We thought you'd be curious to know." I mean, Ronald McDonald barely even appears. Maybe his arm or so. And the logo. That's about it. While I don't approve of this as...

    In what universe are today's kids' shows too "sugarcoated"?

    Well, while you could say that about most of Filmation's shows, I wouldn't say it about Fat Albert. While some of the messages they touched on were soft (like personal hygine and stealing) they later went onto more serious subjects. They even did an episode about pornography (not kidding...
