  On a related note...  I miss the Muppet Show.  Now THAT was a kids' show
packed with levels of irony and humor specifically (and exquisitely) aimed at
adults on top of the obvious kid-level stuff.

  I popped an episode in a while ago and called my 9-yr-old daughter over to
see it and she'd never heard of them before.  Couldn't believe it, so I sat
with her and watched the episode with her.

  Now, she's a die-hard fan, so we both collect clips and sound bytes from the
internet and laugh our asses off all the time.  TheWoman, however, for some
reason, can't appreciate the humor like we do.  Odd.
