One thing that's been on my mind, which I couldn't decide whether to bring up here or in the Nick at Nite thread I started long ago (and I couldn't decide if this is worth bumping a thread that's been inactive since 2018), but from 1988-1992, Nick at Nite aired Looney Tunes, and for a brief...

For a period on Taxi, Latka had multiple personalities (most notably Vic Ferrari). It seems like the kind of thing Andy Kaufman would want to do, but I also know that he disliked working on the show, and I have not seen anything to indicate that he or his writer contributed ideas for Latka...

I used to think that the Wonderful World of T-shirts sketch (or, as it seems it was titled in the scripts, "Frog to Forg") was made in the late-1970s, my guess was season 9, so I was surprised that it debuted in season 12 (though it's possible it was held over from season 11). But considering...

I also don't always see the new DVD releases I want in stores when they come out, which has occurred with certain Sesame Street releases as well as a lot of DVD or Blu-ray releases that are not releases of recent mainstream films. I know, I could order it, but I don't really order online often...

But I have to wait a month or two.

I see that it can be rented on iTunes for 19.99 (I figured it’d be on iTunes but recently started being unsure). As soon as I get an iTunes gift card with enough money I’ll rent it.

I think it's weird that Gonzo is the one challenged as opposed to somebody who might be more likely to be scared, like Kermit or Fozzie or Scooter. I feel Gonzo would thoroughly enjoy it.

Ignoring the Moo Wave name, would How Now Brown and the Moo Wave be required to only sing New Wave music, as opposed to branching out into other music styles (maybe make How Now Brown a solo singer if needed)? How Now Brown looks like he could have done punk music or Billy Idol parodies.

Weren't there still plenty of MTV new wave rock videos, regardless of how many different ways they were? Maybe they could have done some more direct parodies of specific New Wave songs. Even though more direct song parodies were usually done by Muppet parodies of the actual singers (though...

I have recently been wondering if How Now Brown could have easily been replaced by Little Chrissy. Both characters sing rock and roll songs and both were voiced by Christopher Cerf. How Now Brown only did two songs, both from the same year, and both of which ran until the 1990s, so it's not like...

Top ten episodes of Bob (Bob Newhart's third sitcom): 1. The Lost Episode 2. Bob and Kaye and Jerry and Patty 3. I'm Getting Remarried in the Morning 4. Mad Dog Returns 5. For Pete's Sake 6. The Phantom of AMCANTRANCOMMCO 7. Better to Have Loved and Flossed 8. The Man Who Killed Mad Dog 9...

There's a song I recently heard on the radio a few times, although I think I understand enough lyrics, I have trouble finding what the song is via typing in the lyrics. I'm not sure who the singer is, but the lead singer is a woman, and there's a chorus of children. To me it sounds like it...

Forgetful was in street scenes just as often as he was in inserts taking place away from the street (though maybe there were less inserts with him out in the old west by the end of his run).

Brian Meehl as Alphabet Bates. 1329 Alphabet Bates Makes an O - YouTube While I noticed he seemed to be talking with a French accent in Everybody Makes Mistakes, I wasn't expecting him to also be speaking French on the show. I guess it's good they kept up with the consistency (is there...

And of course, Michael Earl was a main performer from 1979-1981 (he has said that during that time, he, Meehl, and Spinney were the only Muppet performers available on a daily basis), and in the late-1980s and early-1990s Camille Bonora was on quite a bit (though none of her characters really...

I am pleasantly surprised that very few segments seem to have been blocked due to being on HBO Max (and I've even seen that some people have uploaded entire episodes, which I have actually resisted watching on YouTube). The Monsterpiece Theater segment The Monsters of Venice has been blocked in...

The theme song from Nearly Departed, a very short-lived sitcom that I didn't really know about until recently (though I did tape something that had a promo for it). Nearly Departed theme and titles - YouTube

There have been times when video had been blocked due to having content featured in a documentary or something only to come back later. There was that period when Lions Gate blocked Sesame Street footage that appeared in 20 and Still Counting, and there was a period when segments that were...

I've recently learned of a handful of short-lived sitcoms - Jennifer Slept Here, Nearly Departed - where the concept is that somebody died and their spirit continues to live in their old home while a new family lives there, with only one person able to see and hear them. The shows didn't last...

Hey Arnold recast many of the characters, and I never noticed without it being pointed out (currently I can hear differences better). I knew about Arnold’s first recast before I heard it (the others I think I first knew after the episodes aired), one Hey Arnold website reported it with “why...
