Choco1980 posted:Cow and Chicken meanwhile was one of those shows like Rocko's Modern Life that hid dirty jokes everywhere. Most notably there was the episode (I believe later banned from CN) about "Buffalo Girls", an all female rough and tumble biker gang that comes in and eats all the carpets in the house. Wasn't there another cartoon like this where one of the characters made a lesbian joke where he brought out a cardboard box and said something like "yeah, she said all I have to do is chow on this box!" I can't remember the cartoon but I remember that scene and wondering how the hell that got past the censors, it was pretty drat funny at the time though.

Fun stuff. 90s game intros were awesome - I remember how stoked I was when Quake 2 first came out in '97 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miHAh2Q-U94 The little stuff made the intro - radio chatter, voice-overs that sounded like they were from the news, I was loving PUMPED when I first got it

Otto Von Jizzmark posted:Was Duckman a good cartoon I rember watching it and kinda liking it a few times and George costanza doing the voice but not much else. Yeah Duckman was pretty great, it's what I watched as a kid to make myself feel grown-up and I got at least 90% of the jokes even when I was 12. The other show I watched to feel grown-up was Mr. Show. I didn't watch The State because I was like 8 at the time it was on, but I watched the whole series later and it was really good. Also 90's as gently caress. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8O9Eo-rlZZc I'd post more actual content from the show but it's all been taken down by Viacom who hate when people advertise their shows at no cost to them

Duckman is still an impressive show. Weird, subversive, and startlingly earnest. It's worth a fresh watch.

I wonder when Coldplay will become classic rock? They're alternative rock at the minute, which is confusing because they are neither alternative nor rock. How about the Red Hot Chili Peppers? They've been recording music since 1983 (for reference, their first album came out in the same year as Pyromania by Def Leppard, and one year before Bon Jovi's first album) and I don't think I've ever seen them called classic rock. Are Nirvana classic rock yet, or are they insulated from the label forever? Foo Fighters are called dad rock, but Nirvana gets a pass.

The Classic Rewind channel on XM has a surprising amount of overlap with Lithium (90s alternative and grunge).

Wheat Loaf posted:Green Day will be classic rock in five years, if they aren't already. Fivethirtyeight did an analysis last year of what counts as "classic rock" today based on frequency of play on classic rock stations. The analysis found a very solid core of classic rock stretching from 1973 until 1982, with that period accounting for close to 60% of all classic rock plays. However, there's a substantial area outside the core going back to around 1967 (with a few plays back to '63) and going forward to 1991 (when U2 (Achtung Baby), Metallica (Metallica), and Nirvana (Nevermind) all released albums that receive substantial classic rock play). The top 25 most frequently played bands make up somewhere around 45% of all plays, and are about who you would expect, but there are large regional variances as well. Some are expected, with west coast cities playing a lot of Nirvana and Pearl Jam. Others are odd, such as Seattle playing a lot of Yes. Interestingly, what triggered the whole analysis was the author hearing American Idiot on a classic rock station. American Idiot is an outlier that's well outside the standard range for classic rock, but Green Day's early albums are right on the edge of modern classic rock. The article also goes into how classic rock stations decide what counts as classic rock. Basically, stations with resources conduct market studies, identify people who like the music that makes up the core of classic rock, then they find out what else those people like.

Someone help me out here, because Google and Wikipedia have both failed me. I'm trying to remember the name of a cartoon that featured 3 guys who were either cops or military, but they always did their thing in the trio. Each had their gear a specific color. As best I can remember, there was a blue, a green and a yellow, but I may have the colors messed up. Also, they each specialized in either air, ground or water. One guy's suit could turn into a plane, one guys suit could turn into a sub and one guys was a bike or a car or something. I could have some of the details wrong, poo poo, it's been over 20 years, but this has bugged me for the longest time. Wikipedia doesn't list the show either, I've looked Also, pretty sure it was on Cartoon Network, but again, I could be wrong.

My preferred classic rock station (No aux jack) got around the whole thing by changing from "60's, 70's, and 80's" to "70's, 80's and 90's". It worked, they still play all the core rock songs talked about in the study, but they get to pick and choose the rock-iest stuff from the 90's without too much complaint. It's kind of nice to hear CCR next to AC/DC next to Foo Fighters. It IS weird to hear "Classic Rock 101!" then Wonderwall - Oasis though.
