  Speaker 4: I'm listening?
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay. He is in negotiations to play Duncan, also

  castle or whatever it is. And oh, well let me
• 1:59
  I'll all will throw in Alison Bree as Evil in
• 2:02
  how about that? Because this is a comedy, I hope
• 2:06
  so well, it may be a comedy even if it's
• 2:10
  not anyway, So there you go, a boy. Disney Park
• 2:16
  fans are upset. Why well, it was some time ago
• 2:22
  that Disney bought the Muppets, long long, long time. Yeah,
• 2:26
  and they made in each park in Anaheim and Florida
• 2:31
  did Muppet Vision three day.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Did you go to that? Did you see that?
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: It was a delightful thing. It was a combination three
• 2:37
  D movie. They built a theater for it, and it
• 2:41
  was it was a three D movie. It's the last
• 2:42
  thing Jim Henson directed before he died.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: It was.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: So it was a combination of a three D movie,
• 2:48
  animatronics because you had an animatronics Stattler and Waldorf up there,
• 2:52
  I'm surprised, and live action performances because there's at one
• 2:56
  point where Sweetam's breaks through the screen and then you
• 2:59
  get a sweetem guy in a costume walking through the
• 3:02
  theater at you. So it was and it was very entertained,
• 3:06
  very entertaining thing. Well, they shut it down in Anaheim
• 3:09
  some time ago, but Disney Park fans at least still
• 3:12
  had Florida right, Not anymore. They have announced that some
• 3:18
  Muppet Vision three D is going to close in Florida,
• 3:21
  Florida to make make way for a new Monsters Inc. Attraction,
• 3:25
  and it's going to be a roller coaster type inspired
• 3:28
  ride based on the climax of the first movie. You
• 3:32
  know where the doors, that big massive place where all
• 3:34
  the doors are.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: Why have they not been able to do right by
• 3:39
  the Muppets. The Muppets are a fantastic franchige.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: That is the question that we all have is why
• 3:45
  can't Disney figure out what to do with.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: You would think they would, if anybody would know, they
• 3:50
  would know.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: But they said, don't, don't panic. Okay, we're going to
• 3:55
  put the Muppets in the rock and roller coaster, you know,
• 4:01
  so it'll be Doctor Teeth in the Electric Mayhem.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Well, now, Aerosmith fans.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Are upset because that's what it was before it was
• 4:08
  the Aerosmith's Ride. Believe me, I went on the Aerosmith
• 4:12
  Ride about five years ago and it should have been changed.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a long time ago.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: Doctor Teeth is an upgrade.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Doctor Teeth is an upgrade. So you're upsetting some fans
• 4:24
  and pissing off others. So if I were to ask you,
• 4:27
  what do you think the most watched streaming television show
• 4:33
  between the week of October twenty first and twenty seven,
• 4:35
  it doesn't matter the week, just recently, the most popular
• 4:39
  streaming show on television?
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: What would you guess it is? Jeez, I don't know.
• 4:44
  Something on Netflix.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Well, it doesn't even matter where it is. What what's
• 4:49
  the show?
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know? Lost? Oh, I talked to somebody who's
• 4:57
  watching that.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, why has made a research exactly? That's what we're
• 5:02
  trying to figure out. It is this happens. You remember
• 5:05
  The Office was huge after it went off the air,
• 5:07
  and then it was just most recently suits.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: This must have been much.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: I think it was Jimmy Santangelo. Is he watching Lost somebody?
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Somebody recently told me they could. They had never seen
• 5:17
  it and we're watching it now.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: It must have popped up on TikTok or something something.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is the show's twenty years old, and
• 5:25
  well the ending was twenty years ago one hundred and
• 5:29
  see one point zero three billion minutes of viewing time.
• 5:33
  And that's just in the United States, according to Nielsen.
• 5:39
  So yeah, go and feel the warm thrill of confusion
• 5:43
  once again.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: The warm I mean, it's very entertaining up until the
• 5:50
  certain points.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: And then you go, ah, I thought you were going
• 5:54
  to talk about Craven the Hunter. Does that come out?
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Because I saw that the coming in December?
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: Oh not till December, okay, because I saw the preview
