Stuffed Grover with “Monster at the End of this Book” book
Some things do not need any further explanation, beyond the fact that Sesame Street is awesome.
After watching this, however, it does appear that Grover is looking a little matted and mangy. He might want to have that checked out.

Modern Marvels – Walt Disney World
You shouldn’t have to guess that Web Watch has “Disney” coded as a search term on one of our TiVos, in order to record the latest television program about any of the Disney-theme parks.
With it, TiVo automatically records anything and everything that it thinks we might be interested in. We’ve seen any number of Food Network-related programming, and practically every airing of The History Channel’s MODERN MARVELS that seems to air about once every two weeks.
And that episode where Full House visits Walt Disney World? Yup – seen that more times than we care to, thanks to TiVo.

Do you like your boss?
Not everybody does.
Sometimes, it all depends on whether you have respect for your boss and their abilities, or whether the boss treats you as you would like to be treated.
Sometimes, the bosses you see on TV are the only ideal that you have available to compare bosses with, and that’s when you find out that your boss just doesn’t measure up.

Web Watch is a fan of Food Network.
We like to cook. We like to eat. We like to learn about new places to eat, new cooking techniques, and maybe have some fun along the way.
We’ve eaten at a number of Food Network-related restaurants: Guy Fieri’s JOHNNY GARLIC’s, Keegan Gerhard’s D BAR DESSERTS, Robert Irving’s EAT, and at any number of Bobby Flay, Emeril Lagasse, and Wolfgang Puck locations across the country. Sometimes the food at the celebrity restaurants is merely adequate; other times it’s been phenomenal and has lived up to the hype. But the journeys to eat at each location are always worth the trips.
Web Watch is not alone in our enjoyment of Food Network. Over the years, Food Network has developed so much cooking- and food-related programming that they were able to program a second cable offering, Cooking Channel. Obviously, there’s a demand for Food TV.
But with the growth that Food Network has had, there had to be some speedbumps along the way to trip them up.

Video and filmmaker John Kerfoot knows funny when he sees it.
And when John first saw the PURE MICHIGAN ads that were put together to promote travel throughout the lovely state of Michigan (as voiced by Tim Allen), it was just a matter of time before John was able to put his own spoof videos together.
NOT SO PURE MICHIGAN is a collection of those parody spots, highlighting… or low-lighting, if you will… some of the not-so-pleasant sides of visiting Michigan’s tourist destinations.

More Gigs Now: Concert Booking Secrets of Successful Musicians
Web Watch last covered how much money it would take to book an artist for a private party many years ago.
Since then, the list of available artists has changed… as have the prices that they’ve charged.
So we felt that now was just as good a time as any to revisit the topic and present a selection of booking information we’ve found that can help you BUDGET AN ARTIST BOOKING FOR A PRIVATE EVENT.
Here is a sampling of approximate costs that you can expect to pay at a minimum if you decide to throw an exclusive private party and want a big-name artist or speaker to come and perform for you and your drunk friends at your house:
Longtime readers should recall when Web Watch shared TiVo Viewing Statistics that listed what types of programs TiVo users were watching when skipping through commercials. Those metrics indicated which were the most common shows to be watched live (such as American Idol) vs those shows that viewers would store up on their TiVo to watch later (such as Grey’s Anatomy).
There has been a long-standing debate among broadcasters and advertisers as to whether TiVo, DVRs, and the ability to skip commercials hurts advertising. The belief was that if the viewer didn’t watch the commercial, then why bother to buy the advertising in the first place?
In the past year, we’ve seen more creative advertising pieces be put together, in an attempt to “TiVo-proof” the commercial. Some movie trailers, for example, display static content in a black bar above the trailer being played — so even if the commercial is being fast-forwarded through, the viewer can still see the name of the film being advertised.
