They may be space monkeys, but these simians mean serious business. Before we got all full tilt boogie with the Christmas-themed madness here at the clubhouse I wanted to take a look at a few cartoons and movies that have recently resurfaced from my strange, subconscious mind. The first of which was yesterday’s Muppets Tonight […]

Lost Signals: Muppets Tonight (1996)
by Rondal 6 Comments
Ever since Strange Kid and I went to see The Muppets last week our minds have sort of been obsessed with searching out every old Muppet movie, TV series or holiday special that we can find around the clubhouse. Not only was The Muppets one of THE best films I’ve seen all year, but it […]

Wow. It’s scary to think that our last edition of Fan Art Friday was over a month ago. It’s been a busy few weeks for sure with a handful of new projects and updates on the horizon that will make my sporadic updates all worthwhile. However, since I’ve never been to big on excuses I […]

In the spirit of giving, and the fact the tomorrow marks the return of Jim Henson’s The Muppets to theaters, I wanted to bring back our Trade or Die column for a look at one of my all time favorite TV shows turned trading cards: DINOSAURS! I also want to mention that these cards I’m […]

It’s the return of the Halloween TV Specials that time forgot! If you remember from our last post, The Top 5: Forgotten TV Halloween Specials, there’s a pumpkin patch full of Halloween specials that have been left to rot while some of the better known favorites get all the attention. In fact, we got such […]

Lost Signals: Monstervision (1995)

You had your Elvira’s, your Svengoolie’s, and your Rhonda Shear’s…all excellent, excellent hosts….but then you had Joe Bob Briggs, a man in his own class entirely. The legend straight from the bowels of the deepest trailer park (and probably the only critic […]

The comedy that gives horror films the backhand. As one of the only two films I can recall ever seeing by director Rodman Flender (turns out he also did Leprechaun 2), Idle Hands is one of the most under-rated (and fun) Halloween flicks to come out in the past decade. I truly forgot just how […]

Can you survive the morbid challenges of this CGI nightmare? Legends of the Hidden Temple. Singled Out. American Gladiators. Nickeloden’s Guts. Not since the 90s has television been so full of such a wondrous assortment of game shows that didn’t involve fake tans, fake boobs, or rich people making fools of themselves. Unfortunately, many of […]

Lost Signals: Monsters (1988)
by Rondal 9 Comments
A horror show that’s fun for the entire family… even if they aren’t human. Produced by the same mind behind Tales from The Darkside, Richard P. Rubinstein, Monsters was a late 80s/early 90s television anthology show that blended horror with comedy for a unique presentation that was more Harry and the Hendersons than straight horror. […]
