Why stand in line to see a Warner Bros. knock-off, when you can sit at home
and get the original for free? Well, pilgrim, slam yourself down on the stool,
'cause it's time for another weekly post of the

              TINY TOON ADVENTURES Upcoming Episodes Guide!


This week's big news is the cancellation of the short-lived spin-off, THE
PLUCKY DUCK SHOW. We'll get to the details in a minute, but let's start with a
quick recap of other more recent TTA news...

        TINY TOON ADVENTURES Upcoming Episodes Central News Recap

-- 11/6/92 --
McDonalds restaurants are giving away two Tiny Toons vehicles every week in
their Happy Meals promotions. If you are embarassed about ordering a Happy
Meal, most restaurants will sell you the toy alone for $0.50. Characters are
Buster, Babs, Gogo, Elmyra, Montana Max, Dizzy, Sweetie, and Li'l Beeper.

A complete collection of TINY TOONS GIF pictures is available for anonymous
FTP transfer. The site is garfield.catt.ncsu.edu, and the pictures are in the
/pub/graphics/images/tinytoons and /pub/graphics/images/incoming directories.

Paul Osze is taking requests for future Tiny Toons screen grabs/GIFs. Send
mail to posze@ecst.csuchico.edu, and specify your favorite scene you want to
see turned into a GIF picture.

The TINY TOONS Christmas special is coming! "It's a Tiny Toons Christmas" is
reportedly being animated by Startoons studios for a December 1992 airdate.
This is a half-hour show that will air on the Fox television network. Buster
Bunny stars in a parody of the Frank Capra movie.

  Yes, you heard it right. After two months on the air, THE PLUCKY DUCK SHOW
is history. Fini. Kaput. Done. Perhaps viewers were upset that TPDS was
nothing more than reruns of TINY TOONS episodes, perhaps the duck didn't have
charisma; in any event, the show's gone.

  But wait! Instead of leaving a gaping half-hour of dead air time in the Fox
Saturday morning lineup, the void left by TPDS will be filled with...TINY
TOONS!

  According to Warner Animation, the remaining unaired episodes of TPDS will
continue to air, but with the TINY TOONS title page and name. We can presume
in the far future that Saturday-morning TTA will be just like the regular
weekday show, featuring episodes starring any and all of the TTA cast. The
staff here at the TTAUEC refuse to speculate on the collectors' value of the
title sequence from "The Plucky Duck Show", however.
