    The Chipmunks

    I was first exposed to the Chipmunks through Alvin and the Chipmunks. Then I saw the Alvin Show designs, first when the shorts were shown on Nickelodeon's Weinerville and then when Nick aired The Alvin Show (and it seems two of the Chipmunks Sing-Along videos were compilations of the music...

    The Great Space Coaster

    Oh, you know, recently I was wondering if there was a difference between royalties and residuals.

    The Great Space Coaster

    I assumed that residuals are what the songwriters get when their songs are used, and I've read that the show had a lot of established songs (much like The Muppet Show did) and that it would cost a lot to clear for DVD releases. It seems I often learn different things about residuals. I had...

    Roosevelt Franklin may return in Sesame Street Season 45

    One thing I wonder about is, was Roosevelt really used that much in the first three seasons? I recently saw a magazine article about the second season (it was pictured on the Red Book site) which mentioned Roosevelt Franklin as if he was a new character for the season, though he had starred in...

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    If it's in alphabetical order, then I'd expect Andy Pig to be listed before Animal. The official description does mention Andy and Randy Pig, though it's possible they're just mentioned/included in a section on Miss Piggy. I feel it might also be cool if there could be sections on various...

    Taz-Mania! It's about freaking time!

    Has anybody seen any copies of the Taz-Mania DVDs? Two volumes have been out, and I haven't found any copies anywhere. Not at Target, Wal-Mart, or Best Buy, and those places usually have Warner Home Videos family market releases (of course I have also never found a copy of the Porky Pig DVD that...

    The Great Space Coaster

    It has been said that music rights are one of the main factors in keeping the show from getting a DVD release.

    There was an Austin Powers cartoon series (or plans for one)?

    Roosevelt Franklin may return in Sesame Street Season 45

    Most of the classroom segments I have seen don't really seem to show the class acting too rowdy, aside from throwing paper airplanes (but then they do stop when Roosevelt shows up). Segments like "Morty Moot Mope", "Bad Luck to be Borna Duck", the poison segment, "Talking Loud/Talking Soft"...

    The Great Space Coaster

    I recall reading an FAQ, which had one question that was basically asking if they'd save a certain episode, and the response was that they only have episode numbers (and I think dates), meaning they don't know what episode each master tape is without watching them. So does that mean they don't...

    Remember that 2002 Fox Network Pitch?

    I don't care either way whether the Muppets do Simpsons/Family Guy/Robot Chicken/Greg the Bunny-style adult humor or the family friendly kind they are better known for. I remember when this series was announced, it was announced that the show would be edgier. Of course I only expected it to be...

    1980 Muppet Festival

    Oh. I thought this was part of the special. I wonder what Muppet stuff was not featured in the special. It would be great if the whole special would be online, either in multiple parts or as one whole video.

    Lost Media Wiki

    I think I read somewhere on TV Tropes that the original coding for Sonic CD is lost. Hard to believe that they'd lose something like that for a 1990s video game (even if it was for a system not many people bought). That's why Sonic CD wasn't included on the PlayStation 2 compilation Sonic Mega...

    Roosevelt Franklin may return in Sesame Street Season 45

    I'm pretty sure that Matt did continue performing his voice for at least a few years after he stopped playing Gordon. Roosevelt did have a speaking part during Hal Miller's first scene as Gordon, and Roscoe Orman did perform Hard Head Henry Harris (though Harris' voice does sound a bit more like...

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    In thinking about how it'll be laid out, I've been thinking, if it's not arranged by productions, it would be cool if there was a musicians chapter. Featuring at least a full page for Rowlf and each member of The Electric Mayhem, followed by sections on other Muppet bands and groups. It would be...

    1980 Muppet Festival

    That was part of the special Here Comes the Puppets. I thought the Muppet stuff was spread among other puppet acts, but watching this it seems as if they were all shown back-to-back-to-back (though I've read that Jim Henson hosted the special.... are there hosting segments not online?). I know...

    Lost Media Wiki

    I wonder about the term "lost", as in how much truly is lost. I often think that many "lost" things are just in vaults and they use the "lost" term as a marketing tool. I read that Jackie Gleason intentionally stored many Honeymooner's sketches in a vault for a few decades with the intention of...

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    This might be the wrong place to put this, but I wonder if Sesame Workshop should put out some DVDs, for the anniversary or otherwise, of pre-season 33 street stories. A few street stories from seasons 30-32 have been included on DVD, but I'd like to at least see some DVDs with street stories...

    Lost Media Wiki

    I've been on the Lost Media Wiki a few times, mainly to look at the page for the rarely-seen Sesame Street animation "Crack Master". I also saw that there's a page for episode 847, the one with the Wicked Witch. I understand why that one would get a page over others, but at the same time...

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    You know, I'm a lot more excited about this release than I was of Imagination Illustrated and Jim Henson: The Biography. This will be the first non-fiction book on just the Muppets. There's been books on the works of Jim Henson, and specific productions, and there's been quite a few...
