All that keeps running through my head right now is

"Bite the hand that feeds you, bite the hand that feeds you!"
The show is really brilliant. So clever and intriguing!

I just told the kids that it's like Goosebumps meets the Twilight Zone. They're intrigued.

Totally. It was from watching that show and reading about it that it developed my curiosity and interest in 'Twin Peaks'.

Its weird because it had a real Twin Peaks vibe and was so good at making things just the right amount of off-putting. I REMEMBER THE DIESEL LINE VIVIDLY TOO. Moments of it stick in my brain like when the kid with the headset gets eaten by the dogs.

Gold fire hydrants in Eerie?
Mar. 23rd, 2019 06:04 pmfroodleI was rewatching Fluffy's introductory scene in the Retainer and noticed the fire hydrant he's standing next to is yellow:
I thought hydrants were always red (they're not really a thing in the UK) and wondered if this was like when a town produces an Olympic athlete and repaints a telephone booth or a post box to celebrate. A quick Google search says that a yellow fire hydrant can mean it's connected to a public water supply, and gold brings up the hydrants from the 1906 San Fransisco quake. However, it seems like these are guidelines rather than rules, so now I'm wondering what a yellow/gold fire hydrant means in Eerie.

froodleEerie, Indiana, is a small town where anything can happen and where urban legends go to become reality. Eerie is a town which has an annual Tornado Day picnic to appease "Old Bob," the tornado that threatens the town each year. Eerie is a town where movie monsters emerge from the television screen, except these are not monsters -- they are actors cursed to repeat their roles forever. Eerie is a town with "a pompous business man known as The Donald who brainwashes the town into buying on credit." Eerie is a town where your next door neighbor (the one mowing his lawn) is an aging Elvis Presley.. Eerie is a town that ignores Daylight Savings Time and when you set your clock back an hour anyway you wake up in an abandoned town with garbage men who are trying to kill you. Eerie, Indiana, is a town where a group of intelligent dogs plot to take over the world.

Eerie Indiana on sale in iTunes
Feb. 5th, 2019 08:06 amfroodleFor other fans of nerdy cult classic stuff. The full run of Eerie, INdiana is $6.99 on iTunes right now, probably only for a few more hours.
— Uncompensated Public Disability Consultant (@JustGrist) February 5, 2019
There's an episode where one of the kids gets a retainer & starts hearing dogs' thoughts. That one has always stuck w me for some reason.
froodleLast time, I was having so much fun talking about the experience of Eerie, Indiana that I didn’t have room to mention the cast. The show focuses on Marshall Teller and his buddy Simon. Marshall is played by Omri Katz, who audiences had seen growing up as JR Ewing’s grandson in Dallas. Simon is played by Justin Shenkarow, who would later work for several seasons on the cult hit Picket Fences and is still quite active today as a voice artist in cartoons and games. Their characters are part of a silly and proud line of children who know more than the grownups about creepy goings-on, and their investigations in Eerie would do the Goonies and the vampire hunters in The Lost Boys proud.

froodlePSN went down and by the time it came back up, I had lost interest in watching this kid's show. However, I want to keep plugging through this, so three months later, I am back at it.
Gonna admit, I am being lazy and just reviewing two episodes at once here and I watched them back in April, and honestly I didn't want to watch them again, even though these are 20 minutes long.
It kind of dawned on me that not only is a monumental waste of time, but also a show aimed at children, and I am almost 30 years old.
That being said, I want to get through it so that I wont feel bad when I start reviewing important stuff like the Final Destination franchise or all the WWE DVD's on Netflix. So back to the show.

froodleHalloween seems like a good time to rewatch the series Eerie, Indiana. When this set came out in 2003, I bought it right away from Best Buy.
— Pinball Jake 🐈@home (@dmbjunky4) October 1, 2018
It stars Hocus Pocus’ Omri Katz as Marshall, a boy who moved to Eerie from New Jersey. Every episode he has to deal with something weird. pic.twitter.com/hJr3CidAyC
I watched it as a preteen. It fit in nicely next to Are You Afraid Of The Dark? and Twilight Zone which I also loved. Plus it was set in Indiana where I lived. If I remember right it had some really good guest stars. pic.twitter.com/IEpUDkHkZb
— Pinball Jake 🐈@home (@dmbjunky4) October 1, 2018
The series starts off with a very memorable episode about a Mom who puts her sons in Foreverware every night for thirty years so they never age. The boys are tired of being in 7th grade and enlist Marshall to help them. The next morning Marshall finds the twins grown up. pic.twitter.com/KwUMBurr5x
— Pinball Jake 🐈@home (@dmbjunky4) October 1, 2018
Episode 2 has some good parts. It starts off interesting with Vincent Schiavelli as a dentist who gives a boy named Steve a retainer that lets him hear what dogs think. The dogs end up being angry at humans and eat one guy at the pound and Steve! Kind of crazy for a kids show. pic.twitter.com/bLs8oMgw28
— Pinball Jake 🐈@home (@dmbjunky4) October 1, 2018
Episode 3 is a lot better. Marshall’s Dad has developed an ATM with AI. It begins a friendship with Justin Shenkarow’s Simon. It gives him a bunch of money which throws Eerie into poverty. We get introduced to Radford and there’s some cool guest stars including Scott Weinger. pic.twitter.com/sqTy1pjhLj

froodleOne trope that's sure to rub animal-shelter volunteers the wrong way is the frequently antagonistic portrayal of animal shelters in fiction.
This is especially the case with Talking Animal cartoons, where pounds are depicted as little more than prisons full of animal inmates "serving time" for some alleged misdemeanor offense and hoping to one day see the warm sun and blue skies again. In extreme cases, depictions may even echo Nazi concentration camps with Diabolical Dogcatchers deliberately hunting down and impounding innocent household pets by the hundreds (as one New York City pound became infamous for during the 1800s) to be "put to sleep", never to see their beloved family again unless they immediately stage some kind of daring jailbreak.
Now while it is true that animal-control officers may impound problematic or aggressive animals when responding to an emergency call, and that not enough lost pets at animal shelters get reunited with their families, modern (Real Life) animal-control facilities and shelters are nowhere near the depraved standards that fiction likes to depict them with. Animal shelters know firsthand how deeply pets become family members, and have a vested interest in providing their animals with a regular supply of food, shelter, health care, and companionship — doubly so for "rescue" shelters who specialize in rehabilitating victims of neglect or abuse by previous human owners. Meanwhile, they do their best to get them adopted by loving new guardians or try to find the proper owners of lost animals, while leaving euthanasia as an absolute last resort (or, in the case of "no-kill" shelters, not using it at all).
Fortunately becoming a Discredited Trope with animal welfare groups (not the Animal Wrongs Group) making the plight of abandoned and abused animals more well-known, though it may have originated from the Forgotten Trope of the Diabolical Dogcatcher (especially in areas where pet ownership required an official license).
A particularly strange variation can occur with zoos and/or wildlife rehabilitation centers, who work with non-domestic animals that (for whatever reason) might not survive in the wild; they too have a vested interest in their animals' health and upkeep.
Probably related to the Sadistic Science Lab and the fear of winding up there, and the Orphanage of Fear.
An early episode of Eerie Indiana involved a dog pound, and a boy whose dental bracers could detect (and translate) the dogs' language. It was implied that an ominous room at the end of the hall was where they put dogs to sleep, and the dogs were organizing some kind of rebellion.

A Very Important Poll: Accessories Edition
Aug. 4th, 2018 02:46 pmfroodleThe Eerie, Indiana screening in Manchester is one week away, and I need your help, Eerie fans! What should I wear to this, surely the social event of the year? How shall I accessorize? To blunder here is to spend an eternity mired in sartorial regret,and so I turn to you to narrow down my list of options.
I've divided them into three sections: necklaces, brooches and pins, on the basis that I can wear a bunch of different pins and at least a couple of brooches, but only one necklace.
Before we begin the winnowing, though, lets take a moment to be sad that since this takes place in mid-August, I won't get the chance to show off the awesome doorknob scarf![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
eviinsanemonkey made me, or the Loyal Order of Corn hat by LizzyLittleFish. To make up for it, here they are being modelled by by a rainbow sheep:
And now, to the choosing!
Miss Tornado Day and Eerie Trio necklaces by AcrylicAsylum. 3D sculpted anatomical heart necklace by AlternativeJewellery. Eerie, Indiana town limits sign by SoozysCraftorium. Camera, coil of film and blue Eerie, Indiana necklace with pink bat charm by Tatty Devine. Key with blue gem necklace by Eclectic Eccentricity. All the rest by Sugar and Vice.

Better Weird than Dead brooch by Sugar and Vice. Poodle with bone and "be prepared" penknife by Tatty Devine. Eerie, Indiana bookstacks by HelloCrumpet. Husky by Acrylic Asylum. Eerie, Indiana/Z Nation brooch by SoozysCraftorium. Jackalope and Poe Raven by Erstwilder. Raven with rose and ravens on a branch by CherryLoco. Eerie, Indiana logo and Centre of Weirdness map badges by me.
( Read more... )
World o' Stuff and POP: 16661 pins by MattRyanTobin. Eerie, Indiana pin by Super Yaki Stuff. World o' Stuff button bydiello. Pitbull Surfers button by me. El Gordo pin by DemonicPinfestation.
