This is amazing. I was googling this show and ran into your post. I love this show!!!
I love it too! Madly, desperately, and platonically, without puppets, even.
Thanks for stopping by!
Your 100 reasons are awesome. 100 internet cookies for you :) Love this show. I missed some of those references. Dang.
Glad you enjoyed! There's a post up at middlefan.com with where to send chocolate and cards and letters, in the hopes of DVDs and a second series.
