They're just something so satisfying about saying "MIMP."<br /> <br /> I'm insane! Whee! I always loved Monster In My Pocket, simply because it’s acronym is MIMP.

Does that question make a bit more(less?) sense when I add that I am a female?<br /> <br /> I might also add that the Kool Aid FAQ was the biggest waste of a lot of people's time. EVER. "I experimented and found out the best means for tie-dying my bedsheets with Kool-Aid !^_^" People should be slain.. So is it weird that when I was a little kid I had probably 10 of these things?

Back in the days of Twip I loved when they would regularly showcase "The Wonders of TVLand" -- episodes of offbeat short lived shows that they would present ether for stars before-they-were-stars (Sandra Bollack in "Working Girl - The Sitcom"), shows that were killed before their time ("The Associates", "Buffalo Bill", "Best of the West") or shows that were just plain wacky/stupid ("Dusty's Trail" - which literally was "Gilligan's Island" set in the old west complete with Bob Denver.) Now its all just reruns upon reruns of shows you've seen a million times before with only one or two shows worthy of its past ("Square Pegs", "Fernwood Tonight") Anyway, two of the shows mentioned on your top 11 list were shown during their recent tribute to John Ritter, "Three's a Crowd" and "The Ropers". I remember they at one point (probably to promote the BB movies) were showing every version of Brady Bunch, and showcasing spin-offs showed both "Top of the Heap" and "The Tortellis". Sorry to go on so long, and i realize it IS a business and if that format had been profitable they would have kept it, but it just seems like such a waste to put all that effort into giving your network a unique look and feel, just to throw it all away and become the "Gilligan's Island Channel". At the very least I wish they'd bring back "Phil Silvers", "Addams Familly", "Hogan's Heroes" and "Green Acres".

The picture says "Midnight Gloom" but you called it "Midnight Blue". Oh well, too much Kool Aid I guess. <br /> <br /> Just to make things more spooky (or to make annoying children cry) serve them a cup of your Kool-Aid mix and say it's Kool-Aid Man's Blood, freshly squeezed from his corpse you have in the basement....AHHHHH!!!!! Or not. Matt, not to be a downer on this already upbeat post but you goofed on the crayons pic. The picture says "Midnight Gloom" but you called it "Midnight Blue".
