Sonic's Valentine's Day Special

Sonic's Valentine's Day Special is a TV special based on The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog television series that would have premiered on February 11, 1997 as the 67th episode, on the USA Network. It also would have been released on VHS October 28, 1997, followed by a DVD release on February 12, 2008 by NCircle Entertainment.
== Plot ==
Amy Rose, an 8 year old girl hedgehog, is kidnapped by Scratch and Grounder, who were actually supposed to kidnap Sonic by order of Dr. Robotnik. But when Amy is brought to Dr. Robotnik, he suddenly decides to go on a date with her. When Sonic and Tails hear about this, they must rescue Amy before it's too late.
== Cast ==
*Sonic (Jaleel White)
*Tails (Chris Turner)
*Amy (Tracey Moore)
*Dr. Robotnik (Long John Baldry)
*Scratch (Phil Hayes)
*Grounder (Garry Chalk)
*Coconuts (Ian James Corlett)
== Notes ==
*This would've been Amy's debut on television in the U.S., before Sonic X.
*Tracey Moore is also the voice actress who played Princess Toadstool in two of the three Mario cartoons, and Serena/Sailor Moon in some episodes of the English dub of Sailor Moon.
*Chris Turner, the voice of Tails in this special, also played him in Sonic Christmas Blast.
*Amy's classic design from Sonic CD to Sonic R would be used in this episode.
*The Sonic Sez segment for this special episode is "making out".
*The VHS print would be closed-captioned by The Caption Center WGBH Educational Foundation, while the DVD print just contains "subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing". The previews on the VHS print are closed-captioned by Captions, Inc. Los Angeles.
*Even though this episode would have a 1997 release, you would actually see "Copyright 1996 DiC Productions, Inc." at the end of the credits, meaning that the episode would be produced on that year.
*Like in the classic era (1993-1998), Amy is still described as being 8 years old, which makes her 3–4 years older than Tails (he was 4 1/2 years old throughout the series).
