My round of questions.
1. What are some sponsors of the Washington Grays?
2. Can I have a list of sponsors of Universal Orlando?
3. Who are the hosts of FOX's WLAF coverage?
4. I'd presume Heinz sponsors the NFL Pittsburgh Steelers, MLB Pittsburgh Pirates, and NHL Pittsburgh Penguins. But how is that sponsorship activated?
5. Does SBC have a nightly news show, and if so who hosts it? And what are some of the other commentators/correspondents?
6. Is Microsoft planning to partner with Atari, SEGA, or Nintendo on the next console generation?
7. Have their been any tie-ins for the Star Trek movies?
8. What tie-ins were there for Roger Rabbit 2?
9. Who are the hosts for Headline News? And the commentators/correspondents?
10. Does ESPN have any major broadcast deals?
1) The Washington Post, Chevy Chase Bank, DC Lottery, Esskay Meats, Anheuser-Busch, Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Jeep-DeLorean.
2) Texaco, AT&T, Jeep-DeLorean, Eastman-Kodak, Miller Brewing, PepsiCo
3) In the studio is Jim Lampley and Dan Jiggetts. Doing play by play in the broadcast booths are Eric Clemons, Nick Halling (on loan from UK-based Channel 4), Kevin Harlan, Mel Proctor and Pete Gross.
4) Heinz has their logo on the dasher boards at Pens games. At Three Rivers Stadium they advertise on one of the billboards above the Jumbotron in the upper deck.
5) SBC's Newscast is hosted by Dave Marash, who was an ABC NightLine correspondent IOTL.
6) Microsoft is likely partnering with Atari or Sega.
7) Plenty of tie-ins. The first
Star Trek movie was one of the first movie Happy Meals. Since then, they've moved on to Enterprise collectors cups at Pizza Hut.
8) A comic adaptation by Harvey, a toyline by Kenner,
9) Headline News is mostly hosted by Nancy Glass, who substituted for Bill O'Reilly on
Inside Edition IOTL.

How many Movietoons are there as of 1992?
And what about the New Tom and Jerry shorts that were mentioned back in 1984?
There is four released per year.
The Tom and Jerry revival unfortunately didn't get past that initial announcement because Turner got sidetracked with the MTV purchase.
