    RIP Joe Alaskey

    Just found out about the news today-very upsetting. For as great as Plucky Duck was, I don't think the character would have worked nearly as well without Joe Alaskey's performance. Thanks for all the years of laughter and fun Mr. Alaskey. R.I.P.

    Which Decade was Better (For Animation): The 90's or the (20)10's?

    Maybe I'm a little biased ( grew up in the 90's) but for me the 90's have the edge over 10's. A lot of 90's shows had the perfect blend of comedy/drama while not being too melodramatic/too topical. A lot of the 10's cartoons seem like carbon copies of each other.

    TV's Funniest Animated Stars: A Paley Center for Media Special

    Is anyone else watching? It's very rare nowadays that we get a non-holiday animated special in primetime. I missed most of the picks, but of course they had some big stars like Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, Homer Simpson and Yogi Bear listed.

    Yup, he's still got that stretchy, manic animation magic. LOL

    Hanna-Barbera's improvement

    Wow I had no idea Fil-Cartoons was created by Hanna-Barbera. I remember seeing them in the end credits of a few H-B cartoons as well as some Tiny Toon Adventures episodes. For that matter, I didn't know H-B helped produce the 80's Teen Wolf cartoon.

    Animaniacs reboot rumors.........

    Well never say never in this crazy business. If the Ducktales reboot proves to be a success for Disney, I wouldn't be surprised to see Warner Bros. and other studios look to revive some of their old shows.

    "DuckTales" (2017) Series Talkback (Spoilers)

    As usual I'm late to the party; but this is exciting news! Hopefully Disney is able to capture the spirit of the original series without trying to modernize it too much ( sure they can add cell phones/lap tops; but keep it ambiguous). Some of the voice actors are advanced in age (Alan Young...

    Favorite Adapted Hanna-Barbera series?

    I was just thinking a couple of days ago; one of the unique things about Hanna-Barbera is the amount of outside properties that they produced shows for. Obviously they had they're own stars like Yogi Bear, The Flintstones and Scooby-Doo but they also did shows for The Smurfs, Popeye, The Pink...

    The Simpsons - "The Man Who Came to Be Dinner" - Talkback [1/4]

    Pretty 'Meh' episode for me; though it was cool to finally see Rigel VII. I do have a little nitpick though: If Kodos is female, shouldn't she have hair like the other female Rigellian's? Unless they where wigs up there. Again small nitpick. BTW, I did like the ending credits music...but...

    The Flintstones rock the WWE

    Well WWE or not, I'm just glad WB is finally utilizing the rest of the Hanna-Barbera crew. Besides Scooby, the rest have been collecting dust for years; although Yogi Bear did get his own live -action movie awhile back. Who knows if this WWE/Flintstones crossover does good numbers we might see...

    [Wii U] Super Smash Bros. For Wii U - Talkback - Discussion of the Smash Broadcast Goes Here

    Just picked up my copy yesterday, but I'm going back and forth as to whether I should get an Amibo figure. For anyone who has one, does it live up to the hype? Should I purchase one?

    The Simpsons - "Simpsorama" - Talkback [11/9]

    Cool to see Futurama back on FOX Sundays; if only for one night.

    2014 Mid-Term Elections thread

    I was debating whether or not to chime in, but I keep it short. I'm very deflated by the election results; and if the GOP continue the shenanigans of the past six years then it's gonna be a long two years. *Sigh* ...Sometimes I wonder if it would be just easy for the country to just split up...
