Last night, at the Playhouse... Mrs. Rene (only one 'e' at the end? But that's a male name! Come to think of it, are we sure she's a she, not that there's anything wrong with that) filled in for an indisposed Pee-Wee at taking a call from Cowboy Curtis and getting the secret word from Conky...

I can't help you on what video collection might or might not include it, but when it comes to a transcription of The Raven, just see which of us will be able to post it here first. I won't be able to until tomorrow, so someone else will probably beat me to the punch. Personally I never liked...

Last night, on Pee-Wee's Playhouse: With Cowboy Curtis, Miss Yvonne, and the Cowntess all busy with their jobs or whatever; Pee-Wee and the Playhouse gang have nothing to do but talk to each other. Amid their bull session, they hit on the idea of coming up with a new holiday, Playhouse Day...

I'll wait for the hue and cry over the very mention of that program to die down. Done now? All right, here we go. The first volume of P&tB DVDs runs for 22 episodes. Seeing that the show ran for 65 eps, it'll probably be in the form of 3 sets, and then that's it; which means WB will...

Last night, on Pee-Wee's Playhouse: amid more cartoons than usual, Pee-Wee fed Roosevelt (and watched him eat), taught Mrs. Renee to tango, and looked through the photo album with Cowboy Curtis. I am surprised at the longer cartoon clips this week. Monday's classic cartoon even had the title...

You tell him, Hap. Wait, did Talho really call out Renton's name in her sleep, or was that just a joke? Well, at least the children are treating Renton better. Although they don't see the side of Holland that Renton sees. Holland makes certain of that, doesn't he? We're seeing more of the...

Another new show (or episode), another thread on which to occasionally comment. First, can someone please explain what this show has to do with bleach the cleaning product? If nothing, why the name? Very pop art-y. Wait, now it's street art / ghetto, no, now it's Cowboy Bebop-ish, well, it's...

So, two new animes to keep track of, and three animes with new episodes every Saturday night. It hasn't been this good since the glory days of FMA and GITS. Wait, that was just last year, right? Paranoia Agent and S-Cry-Ed were also sehr gut, as they say. I've got to say up front I have my...

Hmm, by this logic, Talho would be Misato Katsuragi. A drop-dead gorgeous female in a position of responsibility with a truckload of issues, in a secretive / outlaw organization fighting the governments. The hair's a bit lighter but, yeah. She's even starting to stand up for Renton (Shinji). I...

In the words of Art Carney as Ed Norton, yeesh! What a grouch! Okkay, I went back and changed it to the whole name. Hereafter, to avoid confusion, I will always use the full name and it should be a law that everyone on tz-AS, excuse me, toon zone - Adult Swim, do the same. Criminey! Back...

In the first or second season of InuYasha, Totosai was talking about making the Tenseiga, and how aghast he was at its power. He said he almost called it 'The Coffin-Cheater', but Tenseiga sounded more classy. This makes me wonder, what would 'coffin-cheater' sound like in Japanese? For that...

What examples can we come up with of a hero and a villain being in love, or in lust, in the comics? Here's what I've come up with. Golden Age Batman and Golden Age Catwoman marrying and settling down, even having a child, Helena, who would become the original Huntress after her mother's...

You know the commercial I mean. Does this mean that all those shows (Gigantor, Mr. T, Chuck Norris' Karate Kommandos, Gary Coleman Show, Super Globetrotters) are going to be on the 5:30 (4:30 Central) slot on different days? Or are they going to take turns? I like it that I now have a second...

A couple years back I asked on here where the three InuYasha movies should be considered in the series. I received an answer placing them from right after he got his backlash wave in the first to around the Shichinintai arc for the third. Now I see in the schedule a fourth IY movie for...

I'm certain I can remember a Pinky & the Brain reference in Superman or Batman. Either Bruce or Clark was on the phone with a woman who seemed to be a little bit interested in him. She says something about 'tonight.' "Huh? What are you doing tonight?" "The same thing we do every night...
