What's the deal with My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic having a large male fan base? As far as I know neither show was aimed at males, and I don't think many males would have watched the original series if they didn't have to (I admit I did watch the show at least twice, can't remember why, I...

We've known about this blu-ray release since last year, we only now know about the official release date. They've surely been planning for awhile.

I am not a brony. I don't watch Friendship is Magic (it helps that I don't have The Hub, but I'm not very likely to pick up the DVDs, either), and didn't watch the original series much (I know I watched the original at least once or twice). However, until recently I didn't know what the term...

I've had the first three volumes of SCTV for years, and for a long time I didn't realize they were the same character (I've known it for the last few years, but for some reason for many years I thought that on Sesame Street she was called Wanda the Word Fairy, I think I've seen her referred to...

I've been watching the show regularly these last few months for the first time in years, and I was surprised to see that during her time on the show Vicki was not on the show as often as I had remembered (with her being away on other jobs). My memories from watching the show in its original run...

When shows get canceled, do they stop production right away, or do they continue making episodes until the production season is over, even after being told they're canceled? I've read that The Odd Couple was nearly canceled every season, only to be brought back due to summer reruns, and that...

Is it just me, or do some characters on the show only appear for a short amount of time? I've noticed it seems there are three episodes in a row where Danny has a girlfriend with a trouble-making boy (I think his name is Rusty), and then they just seem to disappear. I don't know if there's a...

Not sure if this would be better for the Full House thread, but is it just me or do many changes on that show seem to happen within short periods of time, without even going through a season? Some of the examples: Joey moves in but has to sleep in the alcove. Before the season ends the...

It is my understanding that all of the Disney Limited Gold Collection VHS releases had this at the start of each video: While that is good, it seems redundant to have it as the intro to all of the videos. It seems it lasts almost as long as one of the shorts, perhaps as long as the combined...

I've noticed on many TV series where there's an "official couple", that unless they are married at the start of the series (and more often if they are already parents) it seems it takes awhile for them to become a couple. Usually one of them will be interested in the other while the other is...

Really? They'd include a classic short before a new feature on VHS? I would have expected Another Froggy Evening to get that treatment, but not a classic-era short. The audio commentary for One Froggy Evening mentions how Michigan got his name. It's been a few years since I last listened to...

Watching the audition footage, I can't help but wonder if that's Kevin Clash as Elmo or someone else. I'm pretty sure the announcement for a new cast member came after Clash resigned, but if it's somebody else, the new performer sounds very identical.

Part of me wonders why Michigan J. Frog was given a name years after his first short. Couldn't he just simply be called The Singing Frog? I guess the name is good for merchandising purposes, but was there any Michigan J. Frog merchandise before he became the WB mascot? I'm pretty sure his name...

I don't like that they call it the "dead" puppet society. Just because they're not being used anymore doesn't mean they're dead, and some so-called "dead" characters eventually do return, usually with a cameo or background appearance, but some characters (Gladys, Hoots, Grundgetta, maybe Prairie...

In the A&E Biography, Caroll Spinney mentioned Mr. Hooper's death episode being a rare occasion where the whole adult cast was featured (well, Linda wasn't, and neither were Mr. MacIntosh or Willy). But it seems like in the real early days it was more common for the whole cast to appear...

I remember one time I found a copy of that video at a flea market, and saw that it had the activity book. I didn't buy it because I already had the video.

It was great to see all these scans (and I hadn't realized some more were posted). Seeing the listing of videos on the inside cover of the booklets is interesting. They're not numbered, but the first six is almost in the same order when compared to the number in the proof of purchase box (with...

It says this is one of the few books to show the humans in illustrated form, but I've seen quite a few books that have illustrated the humans. Ernie's Neighborhood, Ernie's Little Lie, Susan and Gordon Adopt a Baby, I'll Miss You, Mr. Hooper, The Sesame Street Word Book, Big Bird Brings Spring...

Children's Songs and Stories is on YouTube: So is Country Music with the Muppets:

I don't think something would be cut because it mentioned a TV show. Besides, M*A*S*H was also mentioned in the cold opening, and that wasn't cut. And I'm pretty sure Nick at Nite didn't air the show at the time (I don't think Nick at Nite ever aired M*A*S*H, though TV Land airs it now). The...
