    Gravity Falls Discussion (Spoilers)

    There's also a clue to the clues, as it were, hidden in the theme song- there's a whispered message at the end that says "three letters back" when played backwards. (The theme song doesn't really sound that bad backwards, to be honest).

    Is Pixar's "Cars" character Flo based on Flo Ballard?

    As with many characters in Cars, Flo takes her inspiration from a personality on the real Route 66- in this case, Fran Houser of the Midpoint Cafe in Adrian, Texas (so named since it was in the middle of Route 66).

    The Amazing World Of Gumball – News & Discussion Thread

    It was also the subject of hilarious chaos, as presenter Brittany Snow had opened the wrong envelope and mistakenly claimed that Gumball had won the award for preschool programming (which led to a bunch of confusion and eventual clarification). The later part of the Annies had a lot of...

    "Schoolhouse Bootleg" Talkback

    Quite possibly one of your best ever. You definitely got the Schoolhouse Rock style down, and like most good satire, it explains what SOPA is and how detrimental it would be to the Internet at large but also does it in a funny matter...no matter how oddball it might be. (In a good way, of course...)

    "Nemi vs. Nemi" Talkback

    Now I have to wonder what would happen if Nemi had an eating disorder and someone made fun of it. And Demi's probably going to attack me for that one Also, that Jeff Smith drawing is AWESOME.​ But then again, pretty much anything he draws is.

    The Wonderful World of YouTube Part V

    How many times have you said to yourself, "I'd like to know how animated cartoons are made, but I prefer my explanation in rap, and if possible as performed by the guys who directed the Wacky Delly episode of Rocko, at least one Emmy winner, and the voices of Dr. Doofenshmirtz and Major Monogram...

    Subliminal Message in "Alf" cartoon

    This was actually covered in TV Guide back in the day. Googling, I was able to figure out exactly when- August 12, 1989. The person who reposted it was one of those conspiracy crackpots who think there actually is some sort of hidden message behind it, but the Japanese studio who animated the...

    The Hub in trouble?

    As (currently) an outsider who's been following the whole pony phenomenon, I must admit that both The Huntsman and 20PctCooler make valid points re: the astronomical success of My Little Pony, especially with a non-target demographic, and piracy's contribution to same. It's a very interesting...

    Phineas and Ferb The Movie: Across The 2nd Dimension Pre-Release Talkback (Spoilers)

    Disney's original press release announcing the game stated that one of the playable characters will be a new OWCA agent which will appear exclusively in the game, so I would assuming Agent T is that very agent.

    How screwed up is Square Enix?

    Faxing music files? Has Square Enix become Videlectrix or something?

    "MTV: The REAL First Day" Talkback

    According to all-around awesome guy Fred Seibert, who was responsible for creating the MTV logo and brand (as well as Nickelodeon's), the first appearance of the MTV logo with the now-iconic "moonman" bumper was supposed to have Neil Armstrong's famous "one small step for man" voiceover over it...

    Bronies scare me

    Was Tina anything else besides that? Oh, yeah, she had a stuttering problem, but that turned out to be fake. (This is one of the bizarre things about Glee- some of the characters are so underdeveloped that they have no traits other than "is Asian" or "is black" or "is in a wheelchair." A recent...

    The Disney Adventures Archive, Part 3: Revenge of the Spacklers

    Ah, poor Brenda Song. Still stuck in the same Paris-Hilton-spoof shackles she's been in for all these years. Although, now that the Suite Life is ending production, she'll probably be able to make a name for herself- heck, Disney's already calling her "Brenda Song from the Academy...

    Blog Talkback: THE FULL EXPERIENCE: The Pink Panther Show

    Interesting to see Quaker actually did a tie-in involving Willy Wonka- they actually financed the film as a promotional tie-in with a candy bar that never got off the ground (which is why Charlie's name was replaced with Wonka's in the film title, not because "Charlie" was a slang term for the...
