her little mini-kitchen looks like it was set up on a set from one of the Hostel movies.

good to see little Jane is making lemonade outta lemons!

If I’m remembering correctly, Fridge Alert is on the Poopie! dvd (or tape). I think Dr. F and TV’s Frank kept giggling the entire time and they could barely get through the scene (which happened quite a bit, from what I understand).

Holly Hobbie is still around, but updated in kind of a pseudo-neo-retro style:

Kinda weird, huh.

I loved William Conrad Fridge Alert! Whoever played him on MST3K was about as convincing as his stuntman!

Holly Hobbie: My sister, of course, had a bunch. That gigantic, tick-like bonnet always creeped me out. However, her more recent Toot and Puddle books are funny and beautifully painted.

Cannon: Anybody remember the 'Fridge Alert" from MST3K? It would alert you if William Conrad was breaking into your fridge to steal food (and ONLY William Conrad).

A little something for the ladies! Thanks for including a girl toy! Yay!

I, of course, knew all about Holly Hobby, but she never really appealed to me. Maybe because she was human — I never really liked dolls much. I always liked the pets and accesssories that came with the dolls. Still, I didn’t have anything against Holly Hobby. She was cute.

Cannon was hilarious! He was too fat to chase after the bad guys, so he would just run them over with his Lincoln!
