Martin Murphy is great.

I wish we would get an episode about how he and Brigette met and fell in love with.

I think that we could also incorporate Dakota and Cavendish to the story. Like, something went wrong in the past and they turned back in time and see the actual meeting of Martin and Brigette (maybe even throw some Back to the Future sheninningans).

Mykal-Michelle Harris (Disney Television Animation's "Ariel", Walt Disney Studios "Oswald The Lucky Rabbit") recently attended the Pixar Hotel at Disneyland where she showcased some concept art for "Blaze" from the Pixar Archives.

"Can’t help it …Blaze is sooooo cute. Little trip. Big feelings. The "Toy Story 5" art display at Pixar Place at Disneyland is amazing. Has me in my feels. Blessed to be part of this franchise! 😘🚀" - Harris

When it comes to writing for 'Thomas Rewritten' I try to appeal to as many fans as possible, and that can be a blessing and a curse.

Some people like movies like 'Journey Beyond Sodor' or episodes from the Hit era where Thomas reverts to being cheeky or acts more like an innocent, kind child, so in order to appease them, my compromise is to set them earlier in the timeline (like a majority of Hit era episodes set in between 1951-53...

But then there's the people who arrange TV exclusive episodes in the 70's, in between the Wilbert and Christopher eras of the RWS. I completely understand their point of view but aside from the above fans and keeping things easier for me, there are some occasions where hints in canon contradict any possibility of certain movies/episodes being set post 'Tramway Engines'. For example Sir Gillemere having his three funnels in the same year a GER Decapod and a Hudswell Clarke work together in a steelworks...

For these reasons I am finding it difficult working out whether to have 'Calling All Engines' take place after or before 'Thomas and the Magic Railroad' (which according to some canon implications, previous cuts or visual references, is set in 1999).

Chat, considering Linda’s reaction to Rushmore bobble heads and Lincoln plushies, would she be the kind to edit kitty ears onto images of 70’s singers?

[manuciruja]

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

So apparently, Hamster and Gretel's 3rd season is dependent on the new Phineas and Ferb episodes' success and how in increases interaction with the related shows (Milo Murphy's Law, and Hamster and Gretel). We may even get another crossover (which I've been hoping for for ages). So... if you love Phineas and Ferb, and you haven't seen the other shows, now's the time to watch them! They are really fun!

Ciro Nieli ("Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!", Warner Bros Animation "Teen Titans", Marvel Animation "The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes", Nickelodeon Animation Studios "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and Hasbro Entertaiment "Transformers Earthspark") shared concept art of a proposed "Gargoyles" reboot/sequel series that he pitched at Disney Television Animation in 2020.

Sadly the project would get passed due the COVID-19 cuts at Disney Television Animation alongside an original show idea he had "Weirdo Pizza". These cuts also affected other scrapped projects like "Weird Waters" by Jacob Hair and Bob Bowen, "Planet Runaway" and a Untitled "Lockjaw/Marvel" project by Ben Balistreri as well a yet to be revealed project by "Star Vs. The Forces Of Evil" and "Gravity Falls" alumni Sage Cotugno.

A live-action reboot of the series for Disney+ is currently in development at Disney Television Studios and Atomic Monster with Gary Dauberman (Warner Bros "Anabelle" franchise, Paramount Pictures "Street Fighter") as showrunner and James Wan and Michael Clear (A24 "Backrooms") as executive producers. Dauberman would mention that the project was still alive in April 2025 during Wondercon 2025.

"Back in 2020 I was working at Disney TV Animation development. One of the projects I touched upon was the now classic, Gargoyles. My pitch was a respectful and simple continuation of the series: Canmore, with the Grimorium Arcanium, casts the Gargoyles back into a deep sleep while he overtakes the 5 Burroughs of NYC with crime lords and monster beasts. 25 years later, in 2020, once police commissioner, Eliza Masa, raises the Gargoyles from their spell and the fight to take back the city begins. The art choice was a streamlined look, because I wanted full 2D animation and was reluctant to change the established core aesthetic. Unseen here is Goliath had lost his arm and replaced it with a cybernetic one." - Ciro Nieli

I love The Golden Girls.

[gholateg]

Ya’ll don’t have any idea how fucking brave and needed these plot lines were.

This was before Ellen came out.

This was before civil unions.

This was before Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.

This was when your ass could be fired, blacklisted, and shunned with no legal protections for even being hinted at being gay.

And the Golden Girls said “Fuck you, Fuck this, we’re doing it anyway.”

[silenthillmutual]

I think it should be noted that Blanche’s quote about AIDS is also “It is not god punishing people for their sins” and that the episode also deals with slutshaming.

[darkravn]

I don’t know if people realize how much activism these women did for gay right and during the aids crisis. If you think about it they were all long established in Hollywood and Broadway. They had tons of friends personally affected and dealing with the aids crisis. Estelle Getty lost a nephew. I think they helped plant seeds in people who watched Golden Girls that helped make things a little more normalized and mainstream.
