Description Taa Daa this is the first time I've ever drawn Mickey and Minnie.
And I'm pretty proud, I filled a whole page of doodles so I could get comfortable drawing them They are so cute aren't they
The background was all done by hand not on photoshop which I don't have, no I actually cut out the picture and put it to scrapbooking backgrounds I love the end result

EDIT: I WON FIRST PLACE WITH THIS PIECE IN TellMeLies 'Mickey Minnie' CONTEST Woo!

Auugh, this is so cute! I remember this from TML's contest but I can't believe I never commented on it. I really love the background, the original clothes, and the way you were able to so naturally adapt the mice to your own unique style. Mickey's 'aw, yeah' face is so suave, and heeee, those little hearts floating about...just about every bit of this is crawling with charm.

Mickey's expression is brilliant. It's a nod to his more ruckous days, as well as to his loving nature towards Minnie.

"Lol I know what you mean it's so funny what they put in cartoons back then and now it's not allowed to air"

Sort of like how the 80's toned down Lucy Van Pelt for the TV series (TCB&SS) when the previous specials and films had her retain some of the obnoxiousness she exhibted in the Shulz strip (80's animated Lucy wouldn't come right out and say, "Hey stupid" to the blockhead, but comic strip Lucy definately would've and the Lucy from the earlier cartoons might've). Different standards for different mediums within different times, I suppose.

Oddly, it was the show's OWN producers that SAID that. The thing is...as societal expectations change, so do standards. Where it was appropriate to show kids playing within a construction site in the 60's & 70's, it's no longer appropriate nowadays. Where it was appropriate to include snarky humor for the adults watching with their kids, it is generally frowned upon nowadays. Where it was appropriate to air the show in full originally, it is no longer expected, as the show must make room for commercials and must also now adhere to the "interactive" element produced from the popularity of Dora & Blue's Clues. In the case of the Street, the somewhat annoying Elmo's World is it's "interactive" element. Luckily, with Kevin Clash as one of the few behind the camera in helping the show to succeed these days, he generally now either sticks Elmo into the regular Street story with pre-recorded Elmo's World footage tacked on (because execs tested it being removed and the kids watching weren't interested in the show being without that segment) or the little red menace--Oscar's words, not mine--is confined solely to his little fifteen minutes of fame, allowing his fellow Muppets to have the spotlight. Honestly, the only Muppet I can stand that is relatively 'new' from my perspective would be Zoe. Sure, Abby is cute and Murray asks questions (which is a smart way to find out things), but Zoe was--and still is, even with her fondness for ballet dancing--the tomboy female equivalent to Elmo. The good thing is that although she was Elmo's female counterpart, she was smarter in the sense that she knew things Elmo didn't, kept him in line when he became too much of a bother, and even got on his nerves with her insistance that her pet rock, Rocko, is actually alive (when it clearly isn't). For that last one, getting on Elmo's nerves is a good thing, as it gives him a taste of his own medicine and shows Elmo in a more human (or monster) light, instead of just being the hyperactive three year old he is typecast as.

But really, you're never told old for the Muppet brand of humor, even if it has lost something when Jim left us. It is the sort of humor that, IMO, is timeless and worth sitting kids in front of. Instead of say, Spongebob--which favors stupidity as a form of humor--the teenybopper dreck that says the audience has to act like Miley or the brothers Jonas to be a success, and "adult" programs like Family Guy, whose jokes offend some people's sensibilities.

Yeah if I'm watching them my young nephews aren't allowed to watch with me lol. My mother can't stand Spongebob but the boys love it so I only turn it on when they are being overly wild and they'll just freeze and watch till it goes off. XD

"My mother can't stand Spongebob"

Consider her in the same boat. I prefer humor that is funny on its own merits as opposed to "adult" ones that make fun of every little thing or shows like said sponge, whose only source of comedy seems to be him and his best friend acting stupid to the detriment of their friends and co-workers.

The sources of humor I like would be that which can actually be seen by all ages, instead of a single demographic. That cuts out the supposed "adult" stuff and things like [i]Spongebob[/i]. Sure, many do like the sponge, but his humor is a relatively new style--i.e. writing based solely on stupidity, something not even [i]Ren & Stimpy[/i] did, for that show was meant as an irreverant adult satire that Nick execs failed to catch, similar to a certain program about an egomaniacal alien produced by Jhonen Vasquez--in comparison to say, the classic Warner Brothers [ [link] ] slapstick that often had a hidden point to it or the meaningful explosively hilarious humor seen in the Muppets [ [link] ] prior to Jim Henson's death.

Cool. *anticipating "The Cheapest Movie Ever Made" (the film return of The Classic Muppets [ [link] ] to their movie-making roots by Segal & Stoller) and "Fraggle Rock: The Movie" (the big-screen debut of the cast of Fraggle Rock [ [link] ], as overseen by the Henson children; directed by Cory Edwards, who wants a true Fraggle film that is as timeless as the series, as he said per the 2008 podcast when production was first truly underway [ [link] ] & his blog [ [link] ]; executively produced by Ahmed Zappa--who grew up a fan like many of us kids of the 80's--distributed by the Weinstein company; and starring as much of the original gang as possible: the health-willing Jerry Nelson, the supposedly vanished Kathy Mullen, the able-bodied Steve Whitmire, the seemingly ageless Dave Goelz, and the always ready Karen Prell) in the hopes that they bring the Henson creations back to some semblance of their former glory*

Agreed. Although with the Elmo ones, they're too focused on him and not enough on his fellow Muppets.

But all the Muppets are cute and sweet in their own odd little ways. Some moreso than others, but still...
