Q: I was watching "Dinosaurs" on DVD the other day and I noticed the Jim Henson logo pop up. I thought he only did puppets?
TV and film great Jim Henson is certainly best known for his puppetry work, but in fact that's what "Dinosaurs" was -- partly, at least.
The characters on the early-'90s show, structured very much as a traditional family sitcom but with dinosaurs instead of people, were a combination of puppets, robots and actors in costumes.

Q: I was watching an old Miss Marple show and saw that it was directed by Nicolas Winding Refn. The name sounded familiar to me (it is certainly a memorable one). What else has he done?
What you saw was an unlikely bit of resume-building by an already-famous director.
The problem for Nicolas Winding Refn was that, in 2007 when he directed "Miss Marple: Nemesis" for PBS and Britain's ITV, he was still only really famous in his native Denmark. His debut film, 1996's gritty drug-crime thriller "Pusher," had already produced two sequels, while his only English-language attempt, 2003's "Fear X," was a flop.

Daffy Duck is 76 today. I like Daffy Duck. He is much edgier than Donald Duck. Donald Duck may not wear pants, but Daffy Duck doesn't wear a thing. Nothing!
