- Yeah, yeah. This is the TINY TOON ADVENTURES Upcoming Episodes Central, not

-
- "Toony Tykes" is an insult to TTA fans who take is personally. On the other

- What? No Mr. Popular? No Acme Vaccuum Cleaner Salesman? No Rod Sterling?
- No Rabbit Chase? No Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd? No "Sugah Dumplin'"? No
- "Ruffee's Baby from Heck"? No Biff VanDerBunny? No Blink Winkleman? No Prince
- Charles?

- If Buster doesn't do disguises, you're not a toonster. B-)

- The Great Old Ones have no sense of humor. Get 'em outta here. H.P.
- Lovecraft got clonked on the head with an anil, anyway. B-)
