I know we have the Fraggle thread for this, but am I the only one who hates Funko Pops? "Here's an idea: let's strip the characters of all their personality by taking away their pupils!" "Yeah! That's great!" It just bothers me that something I hate so much has become such a fad. The sad...

Mother Gothel is frickin' hot. Probably the most embarrassing thing I'll admit on this site is I actually stopped watching Tiny Toons because I became infatuated with the character of Shirley the Loon; the valley girl thing is such a turn on. Probably the same reason I've always had a thing for...

It's just like the recent SS video where Ryan Dillon wouldn't name-drop Kevin Clash; it wasn't necessary to, but I kinda got the impression he intentionally avoided it.

I actually beat the game, and I had no idea how reminiscent that was of Sonic! The ambient music has stuck with me most so far:

Fall back in popularity. They never recovered from that; it would've been impossible to. He was in the process of selling them to Disney when he died; there was going to be a bunch more Muppet stuff at Disney World. I think there was even talks of them having their own park. So I think the...

Well Kermit has taken a part in many a meme, and I think people will always like characters like Chef, Beaker, Animal, etc. just because of the novelty of them. Well the '70s and the '80s were their peak, and then once Jim died they obviously took a hit in the '90s.

I love that Brian Wilson falsetto that fades out the song; the Muppets definitely did this song justice. Oftentimes I like Christmas music more than regular music just because it's more sentimental. Oddball pick:

This song, forever.

I love these songs that transcend genre.

Someone needs to take you to a vacant parking lot or something so you can cruise around and get comfortable before just going straight to the road.

Really didn't know where to post this, but this thread is as good as any. Really nice photo I found on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bbm2DHxlzwg/?tagged=jimhenson

This is what I think of when I think early to mid '90s fashion: Moms wore really high jeans, which is now extinct. And people wore shirts with Looney Tunes characters dressed as gangsters: Girls wore those hats with flowers in them: There's lots of stuff... 1990 was pretty different...

Yeah, and an odd appreciation for Disneyland costumed characters - something I always had.

Awesome; I never really liked Pops (because of the black, soulless bug eyes), but :sigh: & :drool: look fine.

What a good idea; definitely reminiscent of the Fisher-Price Little People line from the '70s. Now that I saw all the pics, this is actually kinda unbelievable: http://www.toughpigs.com/sesame-lego/

Frank is a smart guy... always a good interview. :o :mad: :halo: :attitude: :( :insatiable: :super: Omg... I just made that thread "Is Sesame Street still funny?", and Frank totally reinforces my point here: So the brand is just carrying it.

I know LittleJerry knows this, but to be fair, that clip wasn't from an actual episode; it's a good indicator, but Brian did that impression on an interview recently. Elmo's history is really interesting; a newspaper clipping said he was originally to communicate through sounds, but Brian said...

I know; I don't drive, but I have a fear of having to drive other people around since you are supposed to entertain them and concentrate at the same time - a recipe for disaster. :insatiable:

I watch some of these of these old skits, and they are absolutely hysterical; on par with the golden age of The Simpsons. How hilarious was Ernie drawing the five legs on the dog? The kids learn, while the parents get a chuckle. Like Ernie was an A-hole... he was just drawing five legs on...

It reminds me of when Kevin performed that full-body character that juggled; we thought there was only one clip of him (the one with Gordon on YouTube), but in Being Elmo they also showed another snippet... in short, there's no tellin' what exists out there that we have yet to see.
