What are ya doin' in my basement? GET OUTTA HERE!

I'm not sure how I feel about Mister Rogers' Neighborhood being omitted from this list. On one hand, it is basically THE best children's television program ever created. On the other, it hasn't aged very well in some parts over the last thirty years. (Like the factory segments. No, Mister Rogers, please don't put how

"He'll never move again!" I remember only half paying attention while my brother was watching Thomas when I heard George Carlin deliver that line. That was one messed up train fable!

Charles Xavier isn't gay! He has a girlfriend! She's…. just in space right now. No I don't know when she'll be back! Stop asking so many questions!

It's free on Amazon Prime, at least

Oh no! Letters and Numbers are enemies!

When Thomas the Tank Engine went from the little models and miniature sets to CGI, that's when things went to shit.

That was the American TV Show that incorporated Thomas the Tank Engine shorts into a larger format. Shining Time's a pretty good TV show - it's got George Carlin, Grease's Didi Conn, and Lakanta from Star Trek! These days the only place you can find it seems to be YouTube

Without spoiling the rest of the series completely, I can tell you that later events in Scott Pilgrim reveal that the main character may not be the most reliable of narrators, and that not everyone finds his shounen-manga-protagonist personality endearing (and for good reason)

Xenoblade Chronicles for me. It's a fantastic game with fun characters and a beautiful world to explore, but the sheer GLUT of sidequests keep me from actually moving forward with the thing (especially once you get to Alcamoth and get a lot of perishable sidequests)

And Press Your Luck had The Flokati Rug!

Not gonna lie. Every time I watch that game and see someone use something other than a 5 or a 0 as the last digit in a price, I die a little inside.

Another classic source of frustration was The Race Game. Nothing like watching some doof fritter his 45 seconds away taking his time with the price tags. Hey asshole! It's called the Race Game! Time might be a factor! No, don't look at the audience! They don't know if the dinette set costs $798 or $849 any more than

Nintendo needs you, Dan. Someone needs to explain to Ganondorf how to take "no" for an answer when it comes to Princess Zelda's magic triangle.

Right. And consider Hamlin trying to get Jimmy to stop using his own last name for his practice. In retrospect, Chuck was likely behind that play as well. Chuck sees the McGill name as his, and a) Doesn't want Jimmy riding his coattails to success and b) Doesn't want Jimmy ruining the good name he 'created'

We got a taste of a redone Super Mario 64 in Super Mario Galaxy 2 with the Throwback Galaxy stage (a remake of Thwomp's Fortress)

Punch-a-Bunch was a game that really benefited from Bob Barker's showmanship. Reach in, pull out the prize ticket, feign disappointment then BAM hit 'em with the $5,000 revelation.

I'll see Lucky Seven and follow it up with Temptation. Any game that expects you to guess the hundreds and tens digits of a car is basically a shot in the dark.

I was going to say he looks ready to welcome us to Jurassic Park, but I like yours better.

Not when there's a box of vegetarian Boca burger patties on the line!
