Looks like I can't edit this post anymore (and I already did to add films I forgot to mention the first post), but the movie I was listed as Hollywood Canteen is actually called Stage Door Canteen.

Dave did talk about this in an interview Toughpigs did, I recall he said he didn't know why they had him do the show and he was just on for a day or two.

Top ten older movies I saw for the first time in 2023 (by "older films", I'll say movies that came before 2022): 1. The Shining 2. Pee-wee's Big Adventure 3. Mannequin 4. Superman 5. Supergirl 6. Raiders of the Lost Arc 7. Superman III 8. Midnight Madness 9. The Birds 10. Die Hard Additional...

In watching Christmas Eve on Sesame Street recently, I only now noticed that during the opening skating sequence, we never see the walk-around versions of the Muppets (aside from Big Bird) at the same time that we see the human cast. Even though it's obvious they are puppets, I guess they didn't...

With Max being a streaming site people pay for (and I assume most of us who got Max did so primarily for the long-unseen classic Sesame Street episodes), it's a wonder the AAPB chose to make those episodes available online for free, and the same edits as on Max (I assume the AAPB's copies are...

I've recently been watching Fun and Fancy Free and The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.... What was the point of the two segments in both movies having different narrators? Was it always planned that the stories would later be seen on their own? It's odd in Fun and Fancy Free. Jimminy...

This is the first I heard it was confirmed another figure is coming after them. There have been a few cases in the DST line where only one character was packaged (Animal, The Swedish Chef), likely due to the large size of their accessories. That could be the case here.

Recently I was looking at "what links here" for many of the Anything Muppet covers of popular songs, and found that most of them last aired in season five or sooner. The only cover I found that did air later (and many times) is season two's The Inch Worm, I can't remember which season was the...

I know - how about a two pack of Lips and Penny Waxman!

yeah, I have done some “versus” threads for a few simple songs.

The Sirius channel '80s on 8 often includes short skits with a kid asking Teddy Ruxpin a question. We hear a sound that seems to imply pulling a lever or string. While I never had one, I believe the toy just played audio on a tape. But these short interstitials seem to be mixing Teddy with a...

Have there ever been any segments you saw way when you were young, then didn't see them for a long time, forgot the lyrics, and then when either hearing a song on an album or hearing people mention a song online, you mistakenly thought one of those songs was a segment in question? There's...

I'm a little late on reporting this, but on October 10 there will be a Christmas-themed release, Elmo's Holiday Spectacular, which is a triple feature of Elmo's Nutcracker, Elmo Saves Christmas, and Elmo's Christmas Countdown.

It seems like Sesame Workshop has started a Sesame Street Fan Channel. I have actually noticed this for a few weeks. Classic clips that had been online for years must have been transferred over (based on when it says the clips were added), I did not know that was possible. Looks like classic...

Top ten scenes from Pee-wee's Big Adventure: 1. The first scene with Francis 2. Pee-wee and Mickey pretend to be a couple to fool the police 3. The drive-in movie sequence 4. The Large Marge scene 5. Actors tell Pee-wee where they are shooting the movie with the actor who has his bicycle...

I listen to that every weekend.

On the Sirius channel 80s on 8, between songs they often have an announcement that Mark Goodman can’t be in on that day. Not exactly a new thing, but lately I feel like I hear these skits all the time. it makes me wonder - does Mark Goodman DJ on 80s on 8? Is there some significance to these bits?

Long ago, I noticed in the first two episodes of Pee-wee's Playhouse, each of the supporting humans gets a scene throughout the episode, and then most of them come back for the final scene (I guess in the second episode they're back a little bit longer at the end). Then the fourht episode is a...

I dreamt that I went to a bookstore and saw that Frank Oz wrote a book. At first I thought it was an autobiography, but it turned out to be a general book about the film industry, with profiles and info on a number of talents, both associated and not associated with Oz. I found big profiles on...

The other night I dreamt I was watching a scene with Timmy Monster, and he opened his mouth so wide that I could see a smaller monster head inside his mouth. I wondered if that had always been there and I just hadn't noticed. I also wondered, since the performers look out a hole in his mouth, if...
