I've Got Ankh-Morpork On My Mind

[tealin]

Sir Samuel Vimes and Wossname Mr. Carcer:



I was watching Stargate SG-1 the other day and had the epiphany: it's not Bruce Willis I see in my head when I try to concentrate on what Vimes looks like ... it's Richard Dean Anderson. Because he is, at least in that show ... Vimes – In – Spaaaaace!* Hence the resemblance. I'm not going to pretend I don't see it. There's a bit of wonkiness because I drew it at an angle (bad me) and the back of Vimes' head is cut off because that was the edge of the paper, but these are occupational hazards when you're a doodle at work.

*To be said like the 'Pigs in Space' intro on The Muppet Show.

Does anyone remember Fraggle Rock? I used to love that show so much but nobody remembers it. The main character was a little girl Fraggle called Red. I think it used to air on HBO.

There was also this old art show on PBS with a guy and a treasure chest that no one seems to remember either.

Also Gummi Bears. Gummi Bears RULZ.

I remember Fraggle Rock! There was the garden, and the little pea people (Dozers?) and ... it was great. I think they did a spoof of Labyrith, once. Didn't realise what it was until years later when I actually saw the movie...

The thing with the guy and the treasure chest, that was another Jim Henson show, wasn't it? Didn't he have a ... big dog or something?

And who can forget Gummi Bears?

no the guy with the big dog was also on Fraggle Rock I think.

the guy with the treasure chest was just some guy with a little treasure chest on his desk and then he would reach in there and take out the day's project. Maybe only I remember it becuase it was on during school hours and I was home sick a lot as a kid.

Old art show with a treasure chest? Sounds like antiques roadshow to me. PBS, too. I loved that show when I was little
