@Mitch!
1) Was The Black Cauldron or Mistress Masham’s Repose a bigger box-office bomb for Disney?
- Repose because it came out the same month as T2.
2) What will be the official name for NBC’s 1992 Saturday morning revamp, if it isn’t “TNBC?”
- NBC's Nothin' But Cool Saturday Morning.
3) Will Alexander’s Bad Days be more like Malcolm in the Middle, or resemble a classic sitcom?
- Alexander's Bad Days is basically a day that get progressively worse each episode.
4) Are there any biographies on “original” child actors, such as Greg Rhodes, and Gus St. Pierre?
- Gus came from a very Pro-Bundy household in a town called Arabi, which sits between the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans proper and a town called Chalmette in the St. Bernard Parish.
- Greg Rhodes was born in Tampa, FL April 20, 1969. His father Dwight had come over to Tampa from Indiana and served as a sergeant in the Air Force at the MacDill base.
7) Is there a list of the philanthropic efforts that Walt Disney, Sr., underwent after his retirement?
- Progressburgh outside of Pittsburgh is based on the core of the original Progress City concept.
- Steelyard Commons in Cleveland follows the same Progress City idea on a smaller scale.
9) For what reasons did the NHL opt to create a summer league, which focuses on roller hockey?
- Mainly a way to develop players who might need a little more experience.
10) Have the collapses of the Berlin Wall, and the Soviet Union, been delayed in any given way?
- No. The Berlin Wall and the USSR collapsed at the same time as OTL.

Ouch. Something tells me that if the show is popular for a second season, we should see a real-life grunge album based on the show. Maybe by someone like Weird Al, who can take the most out there ideas and sing them with a straight emotion.

Oof. Unless the movie is made better, this is quite a sad sight to see MGM's animated mascots separated from the company's logo.
And to see that UA will be picking up the pieces, it makes me wonder if they should phase out MGM altogether and just focus on UA. Maybe even do the same for Ruby-Spears and UA Animation.
So was the planned community of Motor Kingdom built outside Detroit MI, like Progressburg outside of Pittsburgh PA, and Steelyard Commons inside of Cleveland OH? @OldNavy1988
Was Sky Channel America a American version of the European Sky Channel or a completely different channel?
Yeah it was an American version. Aside from George Liquor, the American Sky aired mostly reruns of same stuff Sky must've been running in Europe at the time.
IOTL it was the other way around in 2010, with MGM phasing out UA when the former went bankrupt (Although UA would make comebacks in some forms later on IOTL...).
