As Dreamers Do Part Deux

@OldNavy1988, if The Stepfather is remade like OTL, cast Dylan Baker instead of Dylan Walsh in the title role--Baker excels at playing mild-mannered characters with a dark, evil side to them (just watch the movie Happiness sometime, or his role on Law and Order or, hell, the TV show Hunters)...
What year would you like that to be released?

Also what year should Star Snakes make its debut?

The footprint of the newly rebuilt Riverfront Square is double the size of the original, now extending to Clark Street where the OTL Ballpark Village now sits.

Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion, both of which got their start at the original Riverfront Square, have each been rebuilt to fit the expanded footprint. The main concourse with the Old St. Louis and New Orleans Square lands have also been expanded. Also rebuilt is Splash Landing, a revamp of the original Lewis and Clark expedition ride with the characters from the 1983 film Huck's Landing.

Not only has Riverfront Square been expanded horizontally, but vertically too. New upper floors feature a new Magic Eye Theatre, a condensed version of Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin, AJAX CrimeNet and a new revamp of the classic Star Tours. Additionally, there is the return of Snow Queen and Hansel and Gretel rides that were taken out of the original park in the mid-1990's.​

Star snakes is a action show but I don't picture as being jappness so I wouldn't put it in toonimia. IF you put on cartoon nextwork I would make more sense to be part of the miguzi block blcok ( In case you fogot the miguzi block it aired from 2004 to 2007 and it best know sthows were teen titans totaly spies and code lyoko) er star snakes to air on oddesy o cartoon expree
In when you wish upon a frog star snakes was created by a zodaic entemrnt ( zoadic was the carton divson of british telveison gaint centeral tv. They produced 3 show widget mr bogus and twinkle the star being. All 3 show were coproduce by world event productions.. World event producitons was just bought by liongates. I kind of like the idea of star snakes being lionsgate first hit cartoon ) and lasted form 1990 to 96. Criticts called the last of the ninja turctle competitors

1: Well, since Saban already owns at least part of SBC, I see no reason for them to be part of this. That said, bring it on.
2: On the one hand, this is the most mainstream both ADV and Geneon would probably get to have their logos in an editorial cartoon. On the other hand, with Lionsgate owning Voltron and two anime dubbing studios, on top of their existing history in the anime boom as of recent, a complete dub of the various anime that make up Voltron, but not condensed into Voltron this time, would probably sell like wild.
 
For those wondering about MADtv on UPN...

MADtv is still running on UPN in its eleventh season. However, in the last three years, ratings have slipped behind Saturday Night Live. This slide is rather surprising despite United Feature Syndicate taking NBC, Broadway Video and Peacock Animation to court over a TV Funhouse segment in which Charlie Brown learns that the Little Red-Haired Girl has been a boy in drag the whole time.

Wow.......

That's a trip...

Also, if it's that low, then unless it moves to cable, I don't see it lasting much longer.

I'm honestly surprised MADtv is still on UPN, but I'm not gonna lie...

That segment on TV Funhouse is something I completely side with UFS on giving them a serious lawsuit.

Granted, maybe there can be a few jokes outside of that punchline, but knowing Hollywood in the 2000's, I doubt it.

Charles Schulz (Creator of Peanuts; Now 83 ITTL)
"Apparently the Saturday Night Live writers' room completely forgot about Rocky Lorenzo's crime spree here in Northern California just 25 years ago. Zoe Lorenzo is now living her best life here in Santa Rosa. But in 1992, she wrote to me about how her father's temper got more violent after he had been fired from Disney and Hanna-Barbera. He would burn her with a branding iron, use anti-gay language directed towards her, torture pets in front of her and threw her out into the street when she was still a minor. All of that occurred before she transitioned from male to female. That's what made that particular parody extremely unfunny. It also tarnishes the innocence of my comic strip."​
