As an adult, as I rewatch some of this stuff I remember from childhood, I've noticed a couple things that may have escaped my attention back in the day.
1. The Little Mermaid: Prince Eric is a bit of a himbo. He may have leading man looks, own a loveable pooch and surround himself with quirky servants, but clearly some of his tools appear to have gone missing from the toolshed, if ya know what I mean?
Yeah, that hottie? Evil witch in disguise. Genius.
2. Sesame Street: Couple of things on this gem.
A. When did the kid muppets overtake the street? I my not have watched it religiously, but I remember old faves like The Count, Oscar the Grouch, and Cookie Monster. Big Bird, who I always found the lamest (feel free to disagree with me if you like, lame-o), is still pretty prominent. But all the old favorites seem to have taken a backseat to the likes of Elmo, Zoey, Tully and something called a Baby Bear. All I can say is "C" is for Cookie and that will always
be good enough for me.
For a bear, not very terrifying.
B. If I were Bert, I would long ago had to have kicked Ernie's teeth in. All he does is cause that poor banana looking man grief.
Ready to shove that Rubber Ducky you know where.
3. Aladdin: So *this* is the Robin Williams I remember before he got kind of annoying.
He works better as a cartoon.
4. Toy Story: Still pretty awesome.
Buzz Lightyear is never not awesome.
