The soundtrack of "The Muppet Christmas Carol" has a few songs that were never filmed, but what I didn't know is that the extended version of "Marley and Marley" was actually filmed (without full effects, but still).
What I find great is that part of the cut footage includes a fourth wall-breaking line from Scrooge: "Please, can't we go back to being funny?" Of course the odd part is that the soundtrack version skips this line but includes the Marleys' response of "Funny?" "Funny?" which doesn't make much sense.

Speaking of Isaac Asimov's 100th birthday, today I made an amazing discovery. Recently I acquired an Asimov book from 1968, and today I found within it a newspaper clipping about the independence of Belize (1981).
And the amazing thing I learned today #2 is that I was wrong and books aren't in fact "antique" at 50 years old. No, just like other things you need 100 years for "antique", books are merely "vintage" at 50 years. So I paid a couple bucks for a book that might be worth ten to the right buyer. Oh well...

The fans of the cartoon 6teen have been waiting for a reunion show for years (it'll never happen, I know), but today I found out they made one in 2018 to encourage people to vote.
It's so weird seeing Jonesy in a MAGA hat, especially since I could swear 6teen took place in Canada...

That weird "I saw her . . . I saw her again last night" in "I Saw Her Again" was just a mistake made when someone was mixing the recording. Paul McCartney's reaction was: "That has to be a mistake: nobody's that clever."

Matt Jeffries lived until 2003!
I thought he died way earlier than that. I found this fact on a YouTube white noise video of E-D background noise. Here's the TOS bridge version.
