I vote for Fred Phelps to take over as head for the Foundation of Americans for Responsible Television.
I'd say Funtime should buy Great America.
I'm surprised about Lady and the Tramp
Not to mention the implications of having an actress named "Tiffany" do a voice like that. I wonder what Walt, Jr. thinks of it.
Speaking of Walt, Jr., I'm sure DuckTales' success makes many people realize he can do with his dad's creation.
 
Ernest "Fritz" Hollings, Rush Limbaugh, Terry Rakolta, Pat Robertson, James Dobson and Fred Phelps are on the shortlist to take over for Donald Wildmon as head of the Foundation of Americans for Responsible Television.

Six Kings and Funtime place bids for Marriott's Great America park.

Small Wonder
cartoon is SBC's Biggest Blunder of 1987. The network pulled the plug on the Saturday morning version of Small Wonder. VICI's monotone voice, supplied by Tiffany Brissette who also plays the character on the live action sitcom, had become a source of annoyance even to kids. An indicator of what little faith SBC had that the sitcom would translate into animation was pretty much the fact that it was purposely scheduled to be pre-empted on the west coast by the network's coverage of Notre Dame college football.

Most markets' local newscasts lay a goose egg as DuckTales dominates the 4:30 PM time slot.

I'd choose either Rush Limbaugh or Pat Robertson for this role. And this is because I've barely even heard of the others!

Both companies would have stuff to gain from Great America, but I'd have to go with Funtime here, mainly because I think Six Kings has more than enough time to live.

I'm impressed!

Yeah, I can't say they didn't earn this distinction. On the other hand, it's not as sex-crazed as the Nancy Drew cartoon from Filmation during the 70's. Which would explain a few things later down the road for the studio.

I can see it all now. Scrooge Beats News While Markets Snooze!

Ps Does Six kings own canda wonderland and austilia's wonderland. If so do think that six kingns would build a third wonderland.

I think all three companies have a pretty good chance of ending up in the hands of PepsiCo, Sears, Wometco, General Mills, General Motors, Levi Strauss & Co., or even Jordan Belfort.

I had an idea. So Disney might want to diversify outside of the media sphere. RJR Nabisco owned the Crunch and Butterfinger candy bars. So what if Tiffany gets obsessed with Crunch or Butterfinger bars and Walt, Jr. realizing that his daughter likes these bars that the company is for sale decides to buy them. IOTL these bars were sold to Nestle who sold them to Ferraro in 2018.

Walt Disney Entertainment owning a chocolate bar or two? This wouldn't be something I'd expect.

Well, Bart Simpson was Butterfinger's spokesperson in the 90s, and The Simpsons is a Disney property both currently IOTL and ITTL, so...
