	Okay, it's *NOT* anywhere near as clever, funny, or crisply-
directed as TINY TOON MUSIC TELEVISION.  But given the general lameness
of Season Three so far (FLEA FOR YOUR TWO-TONE WASH, anyone?), it's
refreshingly funny.

	* It's in his Kiss -- Yeah, whatever.  B-
	* Video Game Blues -- Wow this is great.  But does anyone else
ever get confused by the similarities of Plucky and Fowlmouth's
voices?  A.
	* Nothing Compares to Yul -- It takes forever to build up to,
and the joke's pretty obscure, but if you get it, it's an... A.
	* The Name Game -- One of my students called me during this so
I pretty much missed it.  On the bright side, I could clearly hear
over the phone that he was watching TTA too.
	* Toon Out Toon In -- Seems too much like a trade ad for Tiny
Toons (e.g., something they'd show at the Fox affiliates convention).
Since we're presumably already familiar with these characters, why
tell us the most general things about them?  Besides, I hate rap.  C-.
	* Do You Love Me -- A laff riot, even though I'd really have
been psyched if they'd made some sort of connection to Buster's
dancing inability from PROM-ISE HER ANYTHING.  The never-ending
reprises and the snooty interpretation of the lyrics was a highlight.  A.
	* Yakkity Yak -- THIS is number one?  I think not.  C-.

	Overall:  B.  Next time, give us more They Might Be Giants!

I was told that TTA pics are available by using "ftp".  How do I use 
ftp as it is new for me.  There is also another conference here for 
toon pics (alt.toon-pics or something like that). Would it be wise to 
join that conference as well?  I did not because I expect the GIFS to 
be large and it already takes me 20 minutes to download my mail (at 
2400 bps)....

Would I also be able to get music from TTA from ftp?  Someone 
mentioned that he has the music from the show... That would be 
amazing....

1.  Oh, the Raffi parody was dead on.  I wouldn't wish his music even on
those little screamin heathen children at McDonald's.  The crowd of kids
mindlessly swooning back n forth to his crooning was too much.  But 
someone will have to explain "the stepford kids" or whatever it was.  Sorry
to disappoint you all, but I'm not well-read enough to get ALL the

2.  The Sneezer cartoon:  I started this off with dread -- I certainly 
didn't think it was going to turn into a fart cartoon.  I kept waiting for
one of the toons to use the word "fart" but it never came :-(  guess the
censors have to do SOMEthing to those looney writers.

Global is not showing Tiny-toons in the morning (despite my numerous faxes

it is on Fox weekday afternoons at 5.  So get a VCR.

Furthermore, we don't get the Happy Meal toys.

The one's I've seen at McDonald's are of Sweetie running over Furrball with
the steamroller.  Maybe they decided that Sweetie should do the "politically

I'll have to wait until the McDonald's here start selling the 2nd week toys,

Ha!  I knew they'd screw up the Name Game!  Even though they included the
lyrics with the rule of dropping the B, F, or M (bo-Abs, fo-Ifi, mo-Ary),
when it came to doing it on 'myra, Buster, and Monty they BLEW it like every
other attempt since 1970 to include the Name Game in children's programming.

As for the gag credit, bo-Blucky, fo-Flucky, mo-Mlucky.  The sniggering
implication that they'd have to drop the L is beneath the intelligence even
of the commercials run during TTA.  Maybe Cree Summer can't pronounce
"Mlucky" but I'm sure Joe Alaskey can.  (She could always say "Mome Lucky.") 
It would make perfect sense for Plucky to push Elmyra aside and sing his own
name, after all.

So what was this about Saturday morning editions?  Did they mean "The Plucky
Duck Show" or will FOX be carrying both PDS and TTA on Saturday mornings?

TOON TV

This was a pretty good episode(give or take a little) overall...

"It's in his kiss(Shoop Shoop song)"

I liked this one.  The backing vocals by Shirley and Fifi were a nice touch. 
The "Little Mermaid" swipes were OK, but something else would have fit in there
just as nicely...

"Nothing compares to You" by Skinhead O'Connell:

Mmph...hokay...NEXT!

"The Name Game":

Good concept, but I would have had someone besides Elmyra sing it (blechh)
I guess I'm not an Elmyra fan.  Monty as a HERO?  What a switch THAT was...

"Toon out, Toon in" by Vanilla Lice:

Decent rap song considering I'm not much into rap.  The swipe at Vanilla Ice was
Great!  They missed a few characters, though(Shirley, Fifi, etc...)

"Do ya love me/How I learned to dance":

VERY GOOD!  What else can I say?

"Yakety Yak":

Ditto.  Plucky's Dad was funny, with the goofy hair and the buck teeth!


Grandma's dead:

Yicch...Where are the other 'toons?  What happened to Acme Loo?

Oh well...Til next time!

Slight problem here.  "The Plucky Duck Show" is also on the ballot, at

Well today's episode will be a disappointment for anyone who dislikes baby 
pluck and Elmyra, cause that's who was in it. Fifi's vioce sounded different 
is someone new doing her?
Few good parts:

Baby Plucky hits his dad you know where and gets the golf ball in.
"Congradulations son, you're going to be an only child." -Plucky's father in 
a squeaky voice.

MC Hammerfish.

Elymra doing baby plucky's lines? 

Overall I didn't really enjoy this episode that much.

They ran out of costumes in wardrobe, perhaps? :-)
But notice how the toon-sucker-o'matic (tm) didn't have much of an effect on
him:

	After:  Wow!  I'm gonna clean my room! (or some junk)

One of the bright moments in an otherwise dragging act, IMHO.
