The Spooky Side of Sesame Street, Part 1: “Don’t Eat the Pictures.”

By Roxie Guarino, Nightmare Fuel Investigator

In his iconic roles as Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch, Carroll Spinney inspired millions of children to laugh and learn on “Sesame Street”. Now, just shy of 50 years on the air, we’ve said goodbye to one of our favorite childhood friends.  We’ll miss you, Mr. Spinney!

But as with all things…”Sesame Street” has a dark side. YouTube, the Lost Media Wiki, and TV Tropes are just a few sites where you can find generations of viewers talking about the many segments that creeped them out. This new series will highlight some of those most infamous moments. For our first installment, we honor the late Carroll Spinney with one of Big Bird’s greatest moments. It’s brought to you by the letter D, for ‘defeating a demon and defying a deity of death.”

SDCC 2015: San Diego Comic-Con Taking Shape

As we jump on that final stretch of track leading up to the biggest geekapalooza on the planet, work crews are buzzing around the convention center transforming this corner of town into a landscape of odd structures, infinite banners advertising TV and movies and giant building sized posters promoting the same. Hell, even the trolley is wrapped with adverts! Let's take a look around the outside of Comic-Con with our awesome photographer Emilie Noetzel to see how things are shaping up...

Disney's D23 Expo Opens!

With Disney swallowing up both Marvel Comics and Lucas Films, the anticipation for this year's D23 Expo went through the roof.

Disney took some time before the doors opened to shoot the convention while you could...you know..actually SEE the booths! We'll share the highlights with some bits we hope our crew will give us a closer look at sooooon ...

The New Disney Release Schedule with Marvel, Muppets & More

Today The Walt Disney Studios announced a number of release schedule updates. Here is some additional information regarding these projects.

SAVING MR. BANKS (Disney)
(<~ that's not him.)
·         Now opens 12/13/13 limited. The previously announced 12/20/13 wide playdate is unchanged.

·         When Walt Disney’s daughters begged him to make a movie of their favorite book, P.L. Travers’ “Mary Poppins,” he made them a promise—one that he didn’t realize would take 20 years to keep. In his quest to obtain the rights, Walt comes up against a curmudgeonly, uncompromising writer who has absolutely no intention of letting her beloved magical nanny get mauled by the Hollywood machine. But, as the books stop selling and money grows short, Travers reluctantly agrees to go to Los Angeles to hear Disney’s plans for the adaptation.

Send More Muppets

Mash Ups are the cornerstone of any day on Facebook. We eat away the hours creating them, seeking them out and sharing them with friends. Is it all wasted time? NONSENSE. Any way you can steal a smile these days is time well spent. Fright Rags, makers of 90% of my killer horror T shirts, dropped this new mash up design on the world after the teaser for the art hit 500 "likes".

It's one part Muppet Mania, one part Return of the Living Dead....Zombies Vs Animated Felt Beings in the ultimate throw down. Say hello to Fright Rags' newest limited edition T Shirt design, "Send More Muppets"!! Fright Rags commented...

Your Wednesday Muppet Fix

As the convention season (sort of) draws to a close and the spookiness of October is locked away for another year, we settle down and look to the small things in life which bring us great joy. In this case, it is the small, often fuzzy things with odd cracky voices and the most honest felt eyes you've ever looked into. IT'S MUPPET TIME!!

Today in Muppet history, we take a look at the most current Mup-bits from around the interwebs, starting with a photo shoot Miss Piggy did for InStyle magazine.
