I think they have to be doing reviews with clips or I do not see Movies.com keeping them. There is no real point otherwise.

Well they are ow selling comercials for the show so maybe they are just usingi t as a show to make money off of now.

Is that supposed to be an actual episode? I'm not seein' it.

 

[OverUnderAround]

Even though the article does not mention it, hopefully it will be the next one posted, supposedly Dec. 24.

Actually the 24th is kind of late in the season to review X-mas movies.

I guess that reporter got an advance screening.

 

[unclematt]

This sounds great.

 

[bigbirdfan]

Were we due a new episode this last week, or is it this week?

Maby not gonna happen

 

[MWoO]

the episode came out this past saturday and is up there. the next one is the 24th, 2 weeks after the last new one, as usual

 

[Beauregard]

Updated just this second!

It's really really quite good. This time. And two new characters. Cool.

 

[Fozzie Bear]

Oh, well, Statler finally sounded spot on to me, and it sounds like a totally new person on Waldorf now.

It was a nice change where From the Balcony got away from the trailers just that last episode, but not seeing something that's up to date trailers for the two old men to rag on kind of isn't the same. I also am not totally in love with the nameless characters. Bring in Sam, Rowlf, Dr. Teeth, Animal, Bobo Bear...bring 'em back.

Still good, but I miss the earlier episodes.

 

[GelflingWaldo]

Bring in Sam, Rowlf, Dr. Teeth, Animal, Bobo Bear...bring 'em back.

I agree -- as long as the characters have the proper puppeteers, and are not needlessly recast just for the sake of convince.
