August 9, 2006: Figment's Imagination, a children's educational TV show based on the Journey Into Imagination ride at EPCOT Center, debuts on Playhouse Disney. The show's title character is a purple dragon (voiced by Tom Kenny) who teaches young children about basic concepts like numbers, colors, and letters.
October 6th, 2005: A remake of the Jem and the Holograms series premieres on television. The show centres around Jerrica Benton's (Tara Strong) efforts to regain her father's company from the greedy Erica Raymond (Grey DeIsle). She accomplishes this by using the hologram technology left to her by her father to create the alter-ego of Jem to secretly become a famous musician. She is assisted by her friends and an AI her father created named Synergy (Kath Soucie) who's grown beyond the limits of her programming in the years she had been operating. A considerable bit of the humor is derived from Synergy's eccentric personality and lust for (digital) life. The series lampshades the 80's-vintage nature of the holographic disguises by having Synergy sheepishly admit to liking 80's clothes. Unlike the original series the holograms are solid, which isn't very well-explained in the series proper. Nor how a middling-successful music executive could create an AI as sophisticated as Synergy. A few throw-away lines of dialogue and an Autobot logo put in as an Easter Egg end up creating a fan theory where the holograms and Synergy were developed from Cybertronian technology. While that idea isn't pursued in the series proper a crossover between the Jem and Transformers comics at IDW effectively canonizes the theory in at least the comics continuity.

David Schwimmer? He'd be much less intrinsically irritating than Jon Cryer
