Hello! Discovered your channel recently and love the videos you make! Can I make a suggestion of Hobart and Cosmo: On The Tracks? It's such a strange tape but it has some surprising accuracies and depth at some points... before immediately going and saying something not wholly correct. And it's got some weird character choices (a space guy and a platypus?) and a banger theme song. Just thought it could be worth your time! Again, great videos!
This holiday season, I am remaking the Christmas Special in toy photography. Anticipate something that hits all the same beats, but also very different at the same time.
Couple things: 1) The central joke of the Christmas Special is that Pee-Wee is terrible to the guest stars, which makes knowing that Dinah Shore did her cameo in front of a mostly-ignored portion of the Playhouse set a hundred times funnier. 2) Some fans believe that k.d. lang was supposed to have performed "Dominic the Donkey," but for some reason it was switched out to "Jingle Bell Rock." It's the far more peppy Italian-inspired beat she uses.
I have watched this special every year from the first time it was broadcast, to the VHS I recorded from it, to later the DVD and VHS releases - every year since its debut. This might actually be the FIRST year since that I do NOT watch it. When Prince (fan since 85) died, I couldn't listen to his music for like 6mo. Bowie and Sinead got a pass, just a day or two- but I do NOT mourn the loss of an artist I like that way. I need a little buffer. Luckily, he left this behind for us to enjoy for as long as screens play these sort of program things, whatever the format or whatever TV/movies are at that point.
This was extremely well done and very touching. Thank you.
Damn dude, let's get some more subscribers in here. Your content is great.
16:57 - Easily the best eulogy for Paul Reubens yet.
Watch it every year
My absolute favorite Christmas special, alongside Claymation Christmas and Garfield!
I have to ask where you got the holiday ewok because it's adorable!
Picked it up at Disney World last year around Christmastime!
@TooManyTapes Definitely gonna look it up!

Excellent suggestion. Checked a few minutes out on UA-cam, and it's gone on my ebay list!
@@TooManyTapes Awesome, glad to hear it!

maybe I've been watching too much mst3k lately but the new setup is vaguely reminding me of mst3k. have you considered building some robot friends?
I always thought Paul Ruebens was Jewish! R.I.P.
