  1. Zionism in New York: A Jewish home

    There was actually an attempt to resettle European Jews in Alaska OTL!! The Yiddish Policeman's Union uses this as its AH Setting. Attempts by the Coen Bros. to make a movie died in Development Hell, likely because it touches some third-rail issues...

  2. How powerful could Italy have become by 1940 if it wasn't run by a strutting buffoon?

    Brilliant idea! Someone should make a half-timeline about that and leave it abandoned for over a decade. :happyblush ;) Balbo's IMO (obviously) the best case for a successful-ish Fascist Italy. Balbo was a Magnificent Bastard and a fantastic organizer and had the charisma and political acumen...

  3. What if Yul Brynner starred in the Grand Guignol ABBA Cold War Opera: Chess

    Damnit, now that song's stuck in my head, LOL! But that's a fascinating idea. Either Yul lives a little bit longer (he died in '85 and Chess premiered on the West End in '86) or they manage to get to the West End in '84. I'd go with the latter as the easiest PoD. With Yul essentially on his...

  4. A Screwy Little Neighborhood, Ain't it? - Sesame Street on Cartoon Network

    Interesting idea and strong start! I'm curious to see where this goes. I'm hoping to see how the business and art worlds change behind the scenes. :cool: You and all the parents of the 2010s! Very true. Also the specter of Moichendizing hangs over everything. No way the network won't be...

  5. DIXIE GOES DOWN!

    Or Moses Dixon. Name even works with the title! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses_Dickson

  6. DIXIE GOES DOWN!

    Sounds like a potential Spike Lee Joint.

  7. What if, somehow, Iraq managed to win the Iraq War?

    Shockingly incompetent leadership at the top in the 1980s never manages to repair the massive systemic issues in the US Military in the 1970s post-Nam. Crime rates remain high. Race riots remain common. Drug use is commonplace at all levels. Corruption is endemic in the military-industrial...

  8. what if Pro Wrestling is real

    You just described Actual (Freestyle & Greco-Roman) Wrestling, LOL. I guess a pro league could adopt the theatrical aspects of Kayfabe. Real matches with orthodox rules and Points that Mean Something, but all the attitude and personality.

  9. AHC: A White Nationalist neopagan country.

    Illinois Nazis (to quote Elwood) love Pagan symbolism (Runes, Norse Imagery), but are overwhelmingly Evangelical Christian in my experience. KKK markets itself as overtly Christian (mostly Protestant & very anti-Catholic until recently). Lots of overlap in the Venn diagram for White and...

  10. Krush 'Em All, Nick! | What If Nikita Khrushchev was Born in the US?

    Banging my shoe on the table with anticipation of what's to come.

  11. What would the middle east be if ISIS just didn't exist?

    US would have gotten out of the region earlier. ISIS sucked the US back in just as we were trying to leave. Maybe could/would have left Afghanistan earlier too. It would have effects on US politics (enough said about that). It would also affect the Syrian Civil War and Iranian power projection...

  12. "To Introduce our Guest Star, that's What I'm Here to Do..." The Hensonverse Fan Contribution Thread

    @newsgeeking: please do not post partial contributions here. The NHL stuff is fine, but please take it to a PM until you have a fully completed post before putting it here. This thread is for completed posts only, not running drafts.

  13. Explain the AH Quote II

    "It took him 28 years to win the Oscar and it's only gonna take him one race to become a winner in the Winston Cup" Entertainment Tonight on child actor Frankie Muniz officially entering NASCAR after his Best Supporting Actor Oscar win for Rainbow Warrior, the Jeff Gordon Story following a...

  14. Carpenter's Hammer: When Karen went Punk. A Hensonverse TLIAW

    Absolutely! Great work as always!

  15. Early Hawaiian Statehood - Effects on American Politics?

    It would definitely require a Pre-1900 PoD I think, so this may be the wrong forum. Perhaps a "Successful Reconstruction" TL with two or more southern states dominated by a Freeman/Scalawag/Carpetbagger Republican coalition. At a bare minimum some sort of Jim Crow situation where only white land...

  16. Carpenter's Hammer: When Karen went Punk. A Hensonverse TLIAW

    Today brings us full circle, one week, one TLIAW. The Mrs. and I thank you all for your support and feedback. To the "old timers" who were there through the original A Hippie in the House of Mouse to the new names and faces that started here with Carpenter's Hammer, I and we greatly appreciate...

    Threadmarks: Chpt VII: I Wanna Be a Karen

    Clip: Karen, looking older and fuller, leads a camera crew through a modest living room scattered with toys, many of them lined up in perfect rows. Karen: And here’s where we live most of our lives, as you (laughs) can probably see! Heavens to Betsy’s “I Wanna’ Be a Karen,” a song modeled on...

  18. Carpenter's Hammer: When Karen went Punk. A Hensonverse TLIAW

    Yes, I left a few off the table. I largely overlooked L7 for the same reason as Hole: I've been trained by the Long Plastic Hallway to classify them under "Grunge", which is doubly ludicrous given how much overlap there is there. I mean Tobi Vale was mentioned as a "muse" for Kurt Cobain and...

    Clip: The Carpenters performing “Superstar” Title Card: You Said you’d be Coming Back this Way Again, Baby [Clip Ends] Stills and footage from Karen at this time, with her children and husband and their modest home on Long Island. “Superstar” continued to play in the background. Narrator...

    And I appreciate them all! I saw you were already posting some in the Hensonverse Images thread. Yep, and that avenue is open your more from you or others. Hensonverse is a shared sandbox. Just don't violate Canon! It depends on if any more such ideas strike. Won't rule it out, won't guarantee...
