Here's a trip down memory lane if your were a kid of the 80's.
Hanna-Barbera created a cartoon series based on the popular video game Pac-Man and also made a prime-time television special for Christmas of 1982.

I just accidentally found out that several classic Muppet characters have started they're own YouTube accounts! If Jim Henson was still among us, I'm sure he would have jumped at the chance of taking advantage of this new media as well.
You can see what type of antics Rizzo the Rat, Fozzie Bear, Swedish Chef, Sam the Eagle, Beaker, Statler & Waldorf and Gonzo the Great have been up to lately with their own "personal" shot videos!The Muppets on YouTube Playlist
According to this article posted on ToughPigs, the videos premiered near the 4th of July with Sam the Eagle's "Stars & Stripes FOREVER!"I wonder how many more videos will be turning up from different Muppets in the future?
