What we basically need is someone to redo the Walk of Life Project but with All Star instead.

BiggerBoat posted:I nominate "The Big Bang Theory" but that's more a 2010's thing. The Big Bang Theory is still ongoing though, it's still big and fresh in people's minds. So much so that it's getting a spin-off show (that's probably going to flop).

Oh man, Space Cases. I loved that when I was younger. It's cool to hear it holds up. I may have to try re-watching some of it sometime.Wheat Loaf posted:The greatest Captain Planet stuff is always going to be the Belfast segments of "If It's Doomsday, This Must Be Belfast" but it hasn't aged badly because it was ludicrous when it originally aired. The greatest Captain Planet thing is when Hitler proved to be SO EVIL that Captain Planet was weakened just from being in his presence! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i__ztikjTok

Ariong posted:Why does Hitler have a Fu Manchu? Is this a case where they wanted to talk to kids about how evil he was, but they weren't allowed to have him in the show proper, so they had to have Captain Planet fighting Aholf Ditler? I could be wrong, but I don't think they ever refer to him by name. I think the closest they come is calling him The Fuhrer.

FreudianSlippers posted:The funniest censored song I've ever heard was gently caress Forever by Babyshambles because the chorus is just "gently caress Foreveeeeeeer!" and taking out the gently caress just left this awkward gaping pause that put the whole thing out of wack. The main reason this is funny to me is because late in the song Pete repeats the line "They will never play this on the radio" a few times because I'm pretty sure the band just assumed that no one would be stupid enough to make a clean version of a song that literally has profanity in the title. I was surprised as hell when I found out that CeeLo Green's Forget You was censored for the radio because of that.

Mad Doctor Cthulhu posted:At least one of them went on to create the same show for the WB and made it darker, which at least made some twisted sort of sense and explains why that show hasn't been seen for nearly twenty years. I had completely forgotten about Unhappily After After. I haven't watched that show in drat near twenty years (  ) but I'm certain it hasn't aged well at all.

RenegadeStyle1 posted:I remember hating how stupid Ash was. It was so bad I couldn't really enjoy the show. Electricity doesn't work against rocks Ash its obvious before the fight even started! Actually electric does work on rocks. It's ground types it doesn't affect, which the anime screwed up for that episode.

BioEnchanted posted:He didn't even start properly winning fights until Orange Islands. Most of his badges were earned through favours performed for the Gym leaders, to be fair saving them and their pokemon more often than not, but it was still cheap. He technically beat Misty (she was on the ropes when Team Rocket showed up), he beat Surge, he beat Koga and his trainee, he beat Blaine, and he beat Team Rocket while they were running the gym. The only badges he got for free were Brock, Erika, and Sabrina.

TheKennedys posted:Man, Ferris Bueller is possibly my all-time favorite movie but some of John Hughes' stuff has aged terribly. The 80s didn't age well to start with and Sixteen Candles/Pretty in Pink were trash from day one. I remember not particularly liking either growing up, so it's not a New Cool Goon Opinion either. I'm sure it was tainted by my constant yelling of "WHY ARE YOU PUTTING A REDHEAD IN PINK WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU" much like I did to Kirsten Dunst in Spider-Man. ...what's wrong with putting a redhead in pink?

Arivia posted:Buy Nendoroids instead. Way cuter, more options, super high quality. Less variety (anime-focused) and more expensive though. More options? Psh. Call me when I can get a line of Golden Girls Nendoroids for my desk. Len posted:Yeah the thing about Pops are I can be at the store and go "oh hey a little David Bowie with crotch bulge for my desk. $10? Sure why not" and it's a nice impulse buy price. Nendroids look to be significantly more than that and most stores don't have a wall of them. This, basically. I keep hearing 'oh just get Nendoroids instead!' when I tell people I've got a small Pop collection, but they're two completely different types of figure lines aimed at two different kinds of collectors. They're not really comparable to each other, other than both being small figures of popular characters.

Straight White Shark posted:Bob's Burgers works (mostly) because most of the songs consist of dumb little things the characters like to sing to themselves in-character or incidental background music, with the occasional brief dream sequence. The actual musical bits are still usually not good. Bad Things Happen in the Bathroom is great stuff though. https://youtu.be/xDiuSwrRQ4M

BiggerBoat posted:That's a good point. When you really stop and think about how many supporting characters there are in popular shows that are really well liked, it's surprising there's not more of them. There's always some TV exec looking to cash in and wondering what "the kids these days are into" or how to otherwise milk the ever loving poo poo out of a hot property that you'd almost expect a Ned Flanders or Moe's Tavern sitcom. Sometimes they get it right like "Better Call Saul" and after thinking about it seems like there's actually more hits than misses. The fact that Family Guy somehow managed a multi-season spin-off and yet they never tried with the Simpsons is baffling. One would think Fox would have tried to push through a spin-off at the height of Simpsons-mania.

CharlestheHammer posted:Evangelion is famous in that the last half of the show ran out of money so they had to do what they could with the very little cash they had on hand. It’s a good show but no one praises it for the animation as they just didn’t have the budget for it. They make up for it with the movie, though. End of Evangelion has some absolutely beautifully done scenes.
