Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Does the director of the 2014 Godzilla movie have some involvement in the series?

I'm looking at inexpensive dvds at my library bookstore for ltc. Is anyone familiar with Ruby Gloom?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Yes! She and her friends are thoroughly charming and I can't recommend them highly enough!

Cool! Thanks, JZ. I grabbed one dvd for $1, but I'll go back and get the other one next time.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

We loved Ruby Gloom.!

It got interestingly ambitious in its later seasons and even had a musical.

Excellent characters, PerkyGoth design and music.

I think I ganked the theme song too.

If you follow streaming TV for grown-ups, you can see Sarah Gadon, who (exquisitely) voices Ruby, as Grace in Alias Grace on Netflix and as Sadie in 11.22.63 on Hulu. Like apparently every Canadian actor ever, she is mindbogglingly superb.

I'm so behind on all things not animated more small children.

JZ and Hec are, of course, right. Ruby Gloom is adorable. I think I'm enjoying it more than ltc is.

It's surprisingly re-watchable. Which is key with children's programming.

I scored two more Ruby gloom sets at the library bookstore today! I'm not sure who is more excited me or ltc.
