As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

The fact that IOTL CN shows like Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Laboratory, Cow and Chicken and even The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy could be Nicktoons ITTL intrigues me.

How come Tattertown didn't get picked up IOTL?
It was almost certainly due to the infamous scene in Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures. With that being gone, I can see Tattertown being the first Nicktoon in 1990, with Doug, Rugrats, and The Big Beast Quintet following suit in 1991. After that, who knows what'll happen?

In fact, feel free to use this schedule I just created for the first years of Nicktoons. Barring some changes in the format, that is...

September 2nd, 1990-August 4th, 1991:
10:00: Life in Tattertown(First Nicktoon ever!)
10:30: The Muppet Show(reruns)(Given the network being owned by The Jim Henson Company.)

August 11th, 1991-(Insert Sunday prior to the next Nicktoon here.):
10:00: Doug(New show!)
10:30: Rugrats(New show!)
11:00: The Big Beast Quintet(New show!)
11:30: Life in Tattertown(New episodes!)

Of course, the article did say that it would have gotten picked for 39 episodes in 1989, but I'd rather have it launch in 1990 on Sunday mornings instead, so that Bakshi can prepare for the idea of further collaborations with the network, and so that Nick can see if a Sunday morning block of original animation can suffice later down the line. But that's just me.

I actually have another concept for the third Nicktoon:
It's about a young girl named Emma who discovers that her family comes from a magical bloodline. Her parents are named Jacob and Rebecca.
So, basically her magical bloodline leads to her going to a school for children from a magical bloodline, including a pair of twins named Charles and Eliza.

I wonder, now that Bally has bought HBO and Cinemax, if they are interested in buying a film studio. I'd suggest Weintraub Entertainment Group, Grand Diamond, The Cannon Group, Samuel Goldwyn Company, Republic Pictures, or deLaurentiis Entertainment.

I'm curious, what is the list of films in the Disney Animated Canon ITTL?
From my brief inspection into all the threadmarks it should be at about 32 films assuming Black Cauldron counts. Even if it doesn't that's an impressive 5 movies more than the OTL Disney Animated Canon. (As of March 1986 IOTL the Black Cauldron was film 25.)

So, what's the film that will get the honor of the Canon's 50th film? I'd be happy to see a Mickey Mouse feature to celebrate the occasion. However, I have a different and inventive idea for that sort of project. Mind if I PM you the scenario, even if it doesn't become the 50th animated feature?

On another note, I'd wager that Don Bluth would appreciate The Brave Little Toaster, thanks to the film's heart, sincerity, and guano creepiness. And if you know why I said guano, you certainly passed high school science class.

Methinks that the live-action stuff in this list won't really flourish until Roger Rabbit enters the picture. Barring Mary Poppins, of course.

He is seen wearing an AC/DC T-shirt while recording vocals for the Meet the Vultures novelty record.

Here is the new New Line logo after the studio merged with Hemdale and Vestron before being sold to Metromedia.

The other studio getting a new logo is Miramax, owned ITTL by News Corp.
