Actually, even in the early years the channel had plenty of non-Disney programming to offer (like Fraggle Rock, various Sesame Street specials, many Muppet movies and specials before the 2004 sale, Growing Pains, almost every major animated Peanuts production, Abbot and Costello movies, even...

Yes and I was surprised to see that (along with certain other things about Richard's behavior), considering what I've heard about him on The MuppetCast and elsewhere (including the same book). I keep reading that he was generous to other performers (such as asking off on David Rudman's first day...

Hopefully there'll be more mainstream Muppet merchandise (stuff sold everywhere, not just at the parks, Disney Store, and online) when the new movie comes out. I had the same hopes when the last one came out (but at least it was more than when MFS came out).

That was my inspiration for the list of Barney's. I was looking through every page of this thread today to make sure I didn't already ask those "what's the deal with...?" questions about Adam Sandler movies (I couldn't remember if I have here, but I knew I had brought those up elsewhere).

Although I don't expect to get these and the character was an action figure from Palisades, I must say that in a perfect world (one as perfect as Walt Disney World) the chase figure would be Lips. But then again, if they're all blind boxed anyway, what's the point of a mystery chase figure...

It seems like back in the old days of television, most shows would have very few Christmas episodes (and the same can be said about other holidays to a lesser extent), it seems they generally had one Christmas episode for every 4-5 seasons, though there are exceptions (for example, all six...

According to Old School Volume 3 it debuted in season 14, while "Sesame Street, Special" (which was later retitled "Put Down the Duckie") was first broadcast in 1988. And I used to think that the guitar player was performed by Richard Hunt (I've known better for many years, though)...

I've never heard of that movie Our Idiot Brother. So it's weird, I assumed Grown Ups was an ironic title, only to be a more appropriate title than I expected.

A few "what's the deal?" observations about Adam Sandler movies (I know, some of you dislike Sandler....): Shouldn't the main characters in "Grown Ups" act more childish? I was under the impression that they'd be adults acting like children, but then I saw it, and they don't act childish...

Actually, it's widely sourced that the premise is that Arnold and the cast go to the jungle on a school trip in search of Arnold's parents.

Or if you're a big enough fan of a particular artist.

I had no idea of that about digital distribution. Though with the average individual track costing 99 cents to just over a few dollars I wondered if it was difficult to divide that for everyone entitled to residuals, or even if only a few people (like maybe just the songwriter and lead singer)...

So they'd have to renegotiate residuals? I would think his residuals would be the same as old releases of the soundtrack. But whether they'd have to renegotiate the residuals for the rerelease, I wonder if they'd have to let them know of the rerelease. I hope he didn't confuse the question...

Speaking of the "Beam me up, Scotty!" trope, there was recently an episode of The Big Bang Theory where the main characters dress as characters from Star Trek: The Next Generation and their car gets robbed when they try to take a picture in the dessert. At one point they find a place where they...

There's a few things that I wonder if they would qualify for "beam me up, Scotty!", which refers to lines lots of people incorrectly think were said on shows (or misquote, incorrectly combine different phrases into one, or were actually said but weren't said enough times to be a catch phrase but...

I was just watching the episode of King of the Hill where Bobby takes a comedy class, and at the end, at the talent show, when he starts making fart sounds with his whoopie cushion, the principal takes him off the stage and afterwards he's in detention (presumably because of that). I can see...

I didn't realize new episodes were still being produced (though I did know that Comedy Central renewed the show a few years ago). I don't think I even realized that the show was still on the channel (reruns or otherwise) at all. It was a great show, but I think it's good that it's ending now (of...

I recently found this, a YouTube "closing to Children's Songs and Stories with the Muppets": But the promo shown advertises the first seven videos, instead of the first four. It makes me wonder if later printings of the videos had longer promos (there are some videos I've rented and later...

I recently heard the song "Nobody", the recording from the Sesame Street Live! album. And I noticed in the lyrics Snuffy keeps saying "I guess I'll go to my house..." But Snuffy lives in a cave, not a house. And the house line doesn't go with any rhymes in the lyrics (he could have said cave or...

So... There were two episodes involving dog shows? Because I'm pretty sure that's not the one where DJ volunteers to spend time with an old man with Alzheimer's disease.
