They're only including Thriller as a posthumous induction to add to the resume of Michael Jackson. A mere music video does not belong in the registry. <br /><br />Of course, given what's happened to MTV in recent years, putting it on demand would be just the thing to drive the channel into rethinking its current programming strategy.<br /><br />As for the Muppets, well, they do have a few Disney movies in the registry, don't they? If they feel Kermit is on a par with Mickey Mouse as a cultural icon, I don't have a problem with that.<br /><br />Next thing ya know, they'll open a wing for Ed Wood or someone just as bad.....hobbyfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08089664500077967952noreply@blogger.com
