:thud: That's unbelievable.
Yeah. The days of hand drawing is long gone but then again that new movie The Princess and the Frog looks to be promising.

You mean like the scary Grover and an orange Oscar? 
Check out the very first episode of Sesame Street. His voice was a lot worse than the video I posted.
I take it 3-D is more expensive but I remember reading that it's hard to find people who would hand draw 2-D animation of sorts.

Nick Cannon TeenNick Chairman deal renewed - Nick Cannon TeenNick Chairman 2012 - Nick Cannon
Nick Cannon to Stay On as TeenNick Chairman
At the helm since March 2009, Cannon has made a deal to continue creating, starring, producing and directing original programming for the cable network through January 2012.
NEW YORK, NY—Nickelodeon has extended multi-talented, actor/comedian/artist/producer Nick Cannon's deal as Chairman of TeenNick through January "2012," it was announced today by Cyma Zarghami, President, Nickelodeon/MTVN Kids and Family Group. At the helm since March 2009, Cannon will continue his role in front of the camera and behind the desk of TeenNick, Nickelodeon's 24-hour network exclusively for and about teens and tweens, to help develop, produce and create original programming across the channel's multiple platforms.
"Nick is a quintessential millennial and has a unique connection to this generation," said Cyma Zarghami, President, Nickelodeon/MTVN Kids and Family Group. "Having grown up at Nickelodeon, we are confident that his groundbreaking vision and ideas will continue to make TeenNick one of the most popular destinations for teens and tweens, on-air and online."
TeenNick posted its highest-rated and most-watched quarter ever with total viewers and teens 12-17 in 2Q10. Most recently, the original two-hour Degrassi TV movie, "The Heat is On" (Monday, July 19, 9 p.m. ET) set a new record as the highest-rated and most-watched telecast in the network's history with 1.2 million total viewers.
Cannon's on-air initiatives for the network this year include The Nightlife, hosted and executive produced by Cannon, showcasing the latest trends in fashion, music, dance and entertainment. Airing every Thursday night in August from 9:30-10 p.m. (ET), The Nightlife will also feature celebrity guests, including Ice Cube, Anna Kendrick, Travie McCoy, New Boyz, Brandon Routh and T.I., in an exclusive club setting with a dance floor DJ'd by Cannon himself.
In addition, Cannon will also return as creator, host and executive producer of the second annual TeenNick HALO Awards, an hour-long special that pairs four mega-celebrities with four extraordinary teens to recognize and celebrate their commitment to service. The inaugural TeenNick HALO Awards (premiered December 11, 2009) featured LeBron James, Alicia Keys, Hayden Panettiere and Justin Timberlake along with an exclusive personal message from First Lady Michelle Obama.
Hey Nick Cannon, could you bring back the classic Nickelodeon shows like Salute Your Shorts and You Can't do That On Television? That would be great. :lol:

Things are getting rather intense with South Park, apparently.

Well, his height wasn't short but...

As far as the Who Framed Roger Rabbit sequel, I'm rather hesitant about it, not only because it's a sequel but the possibility of it being 3-D (or partly). I know it's easier to do 3-D because 2-D animation is rather more arduous to do. Still...

I'd prefer re-runs of that show. Wouldn't make sense for them to create new Daria episodes, even if it's the college ones.

You never know. I read somewhere that they made fun of Fox News and CNN. :lol:
Oh Big Bird and Michelle could be the same height...if the Big Bird they're referring to is the one that was used when the show premiered. :lol:

Michelle Obama Helps Sesame Street Mark the Big 4-0 - Sesame Street, TV News, Big Bird, Cameron Diaz, Michelle Obama : People.com
Michelle Obama Helps Sesame Street Mark the Big 4-0
Oscar the Grouch had better behave – and keep his political opinions to himself.
On Tuesday, to mark the 40th anniversary of the groundbreaking children's program Sesame Street, some very special guests pay a visit, including First Lady Michelle Obama. According to previews circulating the Net, she meets Big Bird – who observes that the two of them are tall.
Mrs. Obama also delivers a message that may not entirely sit well with Cookie Monster. Appearing with three kids and the show's fuzzy, red resident Elmo, she encourages them to plant seeds in the ground, water them and then expect them to sprout tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce and carrots.
Also dropping by the 'hood on Tuesday's anniversary episode: Cameron Diaz, who introduces the word of the day, "habitat." Elmo helps the actress with the term – and visits a frog habitat – abetted by his goldfish, Daisy.
Now if only the first lady and Diaz could give Gonzo advice on his love life ...
I love how they said that the First Lady and Big Bird are the same height! :lmao:

‘Sesame Street’ Celebrates 40 Years: Wake-Up Video MTV Newsroom
'Sesame Street' Celebrates 40 Years: Wake-Up Video
40 years ago, a show premiered on PBS that essentially gave birth to the concept of television for children. "Sesame Street" sought to cram a handful of lessons about numbers, words, sharing and tolerance by depicting a slightly fantasized life for a group of kids living in an inner-city setting. Using humor, animation and music, "Sesame Street" proved that television could be used as an educational tool and still hold the attention of hyperactive kids. (It could easily be argued that no show has ever done it better.)
"Sesame Street" also provided the leg up that Jim Henson needed that turned the Muppets into household names. Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch and a cast of dozens more not only became well-known to children but also entered into the greater pop culture lexicon. The remarkable thing about the Muppets remains their total integration into the normal human world (like Cookie Monster appearing as a guest on "The Martha Stewart Show" or Lady Gaga bringing Kermit the Frog as her date to the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards).
The show has also become a conduit for other branches of pop culture. (They say you haven't really made it as a star until you're a guest voice on "The Simpsons," but the "Sesame Street" cameo is also worth a fortune in cultural caché.) Plenty of musical acts have appeared next to Big Bird, some of whom seemed to come from way outside of the box: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Backstreet Boys, Beyoncé, R.E.M., Gene Simmons, Ice-T and the late Michael Jackson have all appeared on the show in some form or another. The best musical cameo of the past few seasons was when Feist appeared to sing a slightly tweaked version of her hit "1234" (sample lyric: "One, two, three, four/ Penguins who were by the door"). Really, it's remarkable that the original song wasn't written expressly for the show.
Yahoo to 40 years of Sesame Street and many, many more! :yay:

I switched to MTV during channel flipping yesterday. What I saw was a marathon of 16 & Pregnant. Even beyond that, I never really was a fan since they stopped playing videos. Or took out MTV Fear (the last, what I thought was, decent show).
