Could KSPO also be the Spokane-area broadcast home of the Seahawks, Totems, Mariners, and SuperSonics, at least the games that aren't covered by national broadcast.

For the Seahawks, KSPO will have regional preseason games, plus simulcasts of any Sunday night games shown elsewhere around the country by the USA Network.
 
Will disney be releasing the brave little toaster (It was produce otl by disnye subariy hyperion studios (found 1984)) or will another studio do. I am leanign towards another studio. Do you think the oringal book ending would be used in the movie. In the book the applicnes find that the master has grown up and married and stoped summing in the countyr cottage in favor of a beach vaction because his wife has allegy prombel. The appliances they dedice it time for to move on so with telling the master they are alive the appliances trick him into trading all five of them to the same person

If you were to look at the Canon as of 1986, you'd find that Disney will be releasing The Brave Little Toaster in 1987. Not only that, but they'll even consider it as the next Canon entry after Basil of Baker Street.

After the film's release, Universal held an emotional farewell ceremony for Walter Lantz, who retired from the organization after 58 years on and off. In Lantz's place comes Jeffrey Katzenberg, whom the studio hired away from Turner towards the end of the previous year. While An American Tail came out as the winner of this Thanksgiving's box office bout, some critics picked on the film over its "depressing" scenes.

The Aristocats was dedicated in memory of Scatman Crothers, who passed away during post-production. While the Aristocats put up a decent box office performance, it was only two-thirds of what Universal made with An American Tail. Even with that, some critics pointed to this film as a fun, more light-hearted alternative to the heartstring-tugging American Tail.​

I'm not gonna lie. Fievel deserved his victory in this box office round, and I can only imagine how the Famous staff must have felt during the farewell party. In fact, I'm going to make a bold prediction and say that Famous Studios will change its name to either Universal Animation Studios or DreamWorks Animation in 5-6 years. The latter option being because of Katzenberg.

Still, with the praise from certain critics and its fair margin of profit, I'm almost expecting an animated spinoff series by HB for 1987 or 1988 based on these cats. Plus, with Paul Winchell working for Hanna-Barbera before being the first definitive voice of Tigger, we can expect at least the Chinese Scat Cat to make an appearance in the potential show.

How is An American Tail able to exist without Steven Spielberg or Don Bluth being involved?

I would goe with either roeuvoliton stiudios demions picture Spyglass enticement destination s flims focur picues Zenith Media Bullseye studio Ace Flims Could 9 Pictures or Halo Entetment

If there's anything I'm missing, please let me know. Thank you.
Will the Jim Henson Company ever merge with ABC in the future? I just imagine Eisner wanting to be head of that channel one day?
 
Can Turner make a deal with Warner Bros, and the Jim Henson Company in the future to air portions of their cartoon liberties on a potential future Cartoon Network? @OldNavy1988
That or Cartoon Network ITTL becomes a joint venture with Turner, WB and Henson (Or just Turner and WB, if Henson owning both Nickelodeon and a stake in CN ITTL is too much) as owners.
 
Will Six Flags ever purchase Magic Mountain and the Great America Parks? What about Great Adventure and Riverside (Agawam, Mass)?
Can Corman purchase either Carolco, Hemdale, or Orion Pictures please?
Can Disney or the Jim Henson Company purchase Jay Ward productions sometime in the 90s or early 2000s?
Would it be possible for Disney to merge with Amblin Entertainment at any point?
Sorry for all my questions. @OldNavy1988

Turner can still license outside properties to fill CN's programming lineup. But it'll take a few years before original material is ready to air.
