Lest we forget, "Capitol Critters", "God, the Devil, and Bob", and "Creature Comforts — In America!"

Guys, "The Friendship Song" in that episode of "Fraggle Rock" where Red and Boober are slowly suffocating in a cave-in.

Honestly, Maurice Sendak teaming up with Carol King is as *perfect* a combination as Dr. Suess and Chuck Jones.  I can't think of many other musicians who'd be able to create such strange poignancy from a song about a bratty kid who gets eaten by a lion.

Oh man, is that the "It's in Every One of Us" song?

Oh God…

"Father of the Pride", "Family Dog", or "Game Over"?

Stitch is freakin' everywhere in Walt Disney World as well, and has practically taken over the niche Roger Rabbit once had (aside from the fact that the planned Roger Rabbit attraction sounds like it would have been awesome).  I don't know where this "less popular Disney movie" thing is coming from.

These are pretty great as far as "this only could have happened in the 90's" television goes, but speaking of Oprah, I'd love for someone to find the episode where she interviews the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  Which is to say, she interviewed four guys in crappy costumes from the "Coming Out of Our Shells" tour

Aye, that threw me too.  Maybe Dept of Truth meany "Princess Sophia"?

O_o  Welp, thanks for sharing that website, now my productivity is shot to hell.

Most kids played video games all day when they had to stay home sick.  I watched the long blocks of Educational Television on PBS.  Yeah, I'm a huge nerd but they had some terrific stuff that is sadly lost to my faulty memory.  I do remember "Read-It" and "Books from Cover to Cover", "Eureka!", "Like You, Like Me",

Sadly, I've never heard of Huell Howser.  I'll add Sir David Attenborough, though.  There's a very nice autobiographical miniseries he's running now on "Nature" and he's still just so genuinely enthralled by everything.

Christ, they had all six Brady kids, the dog, two Pandas from space(?), a genie(?!), a bird who was also a wizard(?!?), and some other crazy shit.  And here I am, an 80's kid, whining about the *one* magical goblin thing in the "Punky Brewster" cartoon.

Leave it to 70's Hanna-Barbera to get the rights to make a show about a character and then completely miss the point of that character.

The opening credits to that one look like the 1990's throwing up all over themselves.

Oh no, sir, they did not voice themselves.  That's not remotely how Boston accents work.  Or, come to mention it, how any regional accent has worked in the history of ever.

^^ Naw, those are the kids whose parents sit them in front of "Caillou".

Eh, if they made it through "Web Weirdos" and "All Your Fault", they'll be fine.  Plus, they'll grow up to be awesome.

I had the latest episodes of "My Little Pony" (wherein Spike and the other sidekicks go on their own adorable wacky adventure) and "Adventure Time" (wherein Finn and Jake encounter giant organs and screaming mutants and such going on in the Lemon Castle) on my DVR.  And boy did I ever watch them in the wrong order
