i sent you an email thought the little email button on the bottom of your post. Where does that go?

I know. :-( I have no video of the acutal show. I was actually over there the other day visiting my old haunt and the American producer was telling me that never even saved her a copy of the video they gave out as a KFC promotion this year. They are not so much organized over there. :-(

WO-o-o-o-o-o-o-OW!!! Maybe if they put Sesame on the time slot of the Lousy Sabrina cartoon instead, the ratings would sky rocket.

I am a big Ducktales fan, as you cxan tell. Too bad that one good show gets clobber by another!

I feel your pain! Toon Disney used to be the best network ever and then they put all the crappy shows on. My bro put it best:

"Does Disney think these shows were canceled off regular TV because they were really good?"

Those 80's Disney cartoons give me endless joy!

Personally, I can't freaking believe they replaced Dakwing Duck (my hero) with Subrainy the teenage wretch.

One thing I am thankful for NOT having cable!

Yeah! Especially during the last season. They made so many animation mistakes, I can't even list them. But enough of that now. What exactly did you do on the internation SS?

Well, butt monkey really. ;-)

No, I was the assistant to the American producer so I attented the meetings and helped with the promotions. I also made a binder of potential promotions because we were tyring to help them make products like the other co-prods. I was working for a bunch of different divisions in the workshop but Alam Simsim is what I worked with the most often.

If you can get them on the web, somewhere, we'd all appreciated it. Thanks.

I told some people about the Ducktales thing and they laughed their heads off, just like I did! It's weird...
