I may have been too harsh on The Angry Beavers and Ren & Stimpy. I didn't mean to imply that the shows were bad; they simply haven't really stood the test of time to me. I don't think Nick's treatment of these shows was fair at all. Though Ren & Stimpy went down a lot more in my books when I...

Please learn about ectopic pregnancies. Unless an abortion is performed, both the mother and fetus will die. There is no sacrifice the mother can make so that the baby is born.

You can usually figure out how to get old archived strips by doing a little guesswork and playing around with filenames. Though for Garfield it's all there for you. One of the better strips when it comes to online display policy.

Not funny.

People will often reminisce about how good the old Nicktoons were without rewatching them. While this was a live action show, I fondly remember enjoying "The Adventures of Pete & Pete" in the 90s. When I got the Season 2 DVD a few months ago and sat down to watch it, it was... strange. Not in...

A few of us were fooling around once and we made a sandwich with roughly two pounds of meat (including meatballs, chicken, bacon, ham, others). After one of them took a bite (and got immediate heartburn), we plopped the rest of it into a large cup of Coke. I took a sip of the Coke, and wanted...

I was staunchly pro-life until about a year ago. I think if you had asked me then, I would have said something like this: Abortion is always wrong unless the woman's life is in danger (and even then, medical science is so far advanced that these necessary abortions are largely a myth). The...

Yes, I have been in a rabbit hole as I don't pay much attention to Nickelodeon news much these days. Also, since I no longer have Nickelodeon, I wouldn't know about any new episodes.

Most overrated Disney movie? Probably anything made after the 1970s.

Everyone condones music piracy, and rightfully so. The RIAA is just an attention-seeking organization that really needs to get out more.

The first three seasons of Rugrats are quite excellent, however in comparison to episodes created after Dill was introduced, SpongeBob is superior, by far. However, SpongeBob began to decline in the third season, with the show relying more on grotesque drawings and outlandish plots than in the...

This guy really knows what he's talking about. Chuck Jones wasn't the animator for that "Kill the Wabbit" cartoon (for God's sake, he couldn't even find the cartoon's name? This guy sure is qualified to write about Chuck Jones), he was the director. Nobody ever complains about a guy's...

I think that the "Spotlight Collection" cover looks much worse than the Golden Collection one. I think it's pretty tacky to have clip-art of Speedy, Taz, and Pepe Lepew when there won't even be cartoons with those characters on the DVD set... :p :rolleyes: -Dan

Here's the bonus features and cover art: http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=2054 For whatever reason, there will be another 2-disc set that just takes cartoons from the 4-disc Golden Collection (and without any extras). You'll be able to find out some more about this DVD set...

That doesn't justify double-dipping cartoons, or becoming slack with cartoon releases just to make a few extra bucks. Seeing what they're doing with the Pluto set, I wouldn't be surprised if they copy any of the Donald shorts from "Front Lines" (besides those two mentioned, though I wouldn't...
