TMZ on TV - TV Shows
Yippee, another tabloid show. Paparazzi fodder. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 27, 2011, 11:50 am

Jonny Quest - TV Shows
Jonny Quest is great. Hanna-Barbera proves they can do action instead of just comedy. Then those stupid TV watchdog groups force them to get rid of it, because it's "too violent". I may be thinking too deep, but...I feel Jonny Quest was somewhat educational in that it taught kids evil people out there won't be easily defeated or won over like the comical villains in other cartoons. These watchdog groups do far more harm than good. Now parents just plop their kid in front of the TV, knowing groups like ACT and PTC make sure nothing bad will ever be on the cartoons they watch. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 27, 2011, 11:45 am

Power Rangers (original) - TV Shows
I was actually in my early teens when this first aired. In my family, teens are considered kids, and I'm not sure if anyone else here considers teens to be kids. Me and all my friends liked this, but a year or so later, we decided Power Rangers sucked. I even remember the controversy over alleged racism and sexism (black kid in black armor, oriental girl in yellow armor, white girl in pink armor). There was a parody of them in Super Mario RPG, called the Axem Rangers. Looking back, they were a lot funnier than this show ever was. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 27, 2011, 11:26 am

Power Rangers (original) - TV Shows
I'm glad you took Chubby's advice, Travoltron. This had to be said. Truth be told, I'm embarrassed to admit that I liked this show as a kid. Looking back, I have to ask, what the Hell were we kids thinking? Everything we rail against on BTF, this show had in spades. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 25, 2011, 5:49 pm

Barack Obama II - Celebrities
It's ridiculous how they're scapegoating everyone and everything for the Arizona shooting. The killer was a psycho. He didn't do it because he was on the left or the right, he did it because he was a lunatic. As for Sarah Palin's "crosshairs over Arizona" being used to pin the blame on her, it just proves her haters are grasping at straws. The gunman WAS NOT a Sarah Palin supporter. He never said anything like, "I did this for you, Sarah!!". If he did, the news would have pounced on it immediately. So far, they have nothing. Whatever happened to blaming murders on murderers, rather than everything else? -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 20, 2011, 1:29 pm

Tea Party - Random Topics
People also compared Bush to Hitler. I said it before in one topic, but I'll say it again: comparing anyone to Hitler (who has not committed mass murder) is low. Though you may not approve of Bush and/or Obama's policies, neither of them rounded up millions of people with the intent to slaughter them. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 20, 2011, 1:13 pm

Ghostbusters (Filmation) - TV Shows
I managed to catch an episode a few days ago. The DTV schedule said, "Ghostbusters". Maybe they forgot to add "The Real" to the title, I thought to myself. The DTV schedule would do something like that to save space. But in the show's description were the names Jake and Eddie. At the same time I saw commercials with two guys and a gorilla. It was NOT the Real Ghostbusters after all. I was disappointed, but I decided to give it a try (morbid curiosity more than anything). Inferior, inferior, inferior to the Real Ghostbusters. My sympathy to all who got this under their Christmas tree because it was mistaken for the Real Ghostbusters. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 18, 2011, 9:45 am

Westboro Baptist Church - Random Topics
They're in for a nasty surprise when their time is up. I heard they promised not to protest the Arizona funeral if they got an interview. What attention whores. PYLRulz is absolutely right: if we ignore them, we stop rewarding their behavior. I'd call the protesters pieces of shit, but that would be libel against excrement. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 18, 2011, 9:19 am

Barack Obama II - Celebrities
Alas, they replaced the memorial with a pep rally. Clapping and cheering? I don't recall anyone clapping or cheering at my aunt's funeral. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 18, 2011, 9:13 am

Perils of Penelope Pitstop, The - TV Shows
I think it's funny how she never figures out Sneakly is really the Hooded Claw. One time, he dressed up as him right in front of her as part of a quick-change demonstration. She didn't put 2 and 2 together. WAY too trusting of Sneakly. But I digress, I don't think it boned when she could never figure it out. So far, Penelope Pitstop is like a banana...it has no bones. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 18, 2011, 9:09 am

Batman Beyond - TV Shows
Batman Beyond took place in the future. I remember in one episode (which aired prior to the 2000 election), Terry and his friend were discussing the Presidents. Terry asked which president came after Clinton, and his friend mentioned "the boring one". -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 18, 2011, 9:07 am

Roman Polanski - Celebrities
If priests molest kids, they're reviled like the scum they are, and rightfully so. If celebrities molest kids, they evade justice and their fans either act like nothing happened, or that a mountain is being made out of a molehill. When Roman Polanski was arrested, everyone was getting upset with the government for "digging up an old case". I doubt they'd whine about an old case being "dug up" if the court responded to a 30-year old man's accusation against a priest that abused him when he was a boy. Apparently, if you're in show biz, you can get away with practically anything. Kingbk hit the nail on the head. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 18, 2011, 9:05 am

Yahoo! - Websites
God help you if you post on a comment on a topic and there are a team of cyberbully trolls who don't agree with you. They'll submit it as spam. If the administrators agree with them (or otherwise have some beef against you), you'll get slapped with restrictions, in the form of posting limits, among others. It happens all the time to a friend of mine...even though they stayed on topic and DIDN'T spam the messageboards! This is one reason I RARELY post comments on Yahoo. Luckily, no one's reported me as spam, but still. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 6, 2011, 1:38 pm

Arthur - TV Shows
Thank you! I was hoping I wasn't the only one who approved of Arthur hitting DW. But they undo any sense of justice being served by having Binky hit Arthur later on! And everyone coming down with diverse diseases? It's a parade of "Very Special" episodes. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 6, 2011, 12:56 pm

SWAT Kats: The Radical Squadron - TV Shows
SWAT stands for Special Weapons And Tactics. Special Weapons, they have. Tactics, that too. But only two members? That's hardly a team. I too enjoyed this when I was younger, and as far as I remember, it hasn't boned yet. I hope it stays that way. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on December 30, 2010, 10:04 am

Kangaroo Jack - Movie Series
They hit a kangaroo, dress it up, and it runs away. These people keep insulting our intelligence with garbage like this. If this garbage script became a movie, there must be a movie script in the garbage. There must have been a mix-up, it's the only way. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on December 30, 2010, 9:58 am

ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) - Random Topics
Burning Israeli flags, supporting terrorists, Nazi salutes. Some peace organization. Any group that gives itself a nice-sounding name like "The Happy Love and Peace Club" is usually quite the opposite of what they claim to be. Stopping war and ending racism? That's a good one, ANSWER. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on December 30, 2010, 9:43 am

9/11 Truth Movement - Random Topics
I sometimes think the "birthers" movement is a satire against the 9/11 truth movement. If it isn't, at least they accuse Obama of something far less horrible than what Bush is being accused of. Also, if Bush orchestrated 9/11, why would Al-Qaida accept responsibility for the attacks? -- Submitted By: (Robert) on December 30, 2010, 9:33 am
