Were you referring to Rei, Lum's ex who turns into a tiger-like beast? Because Ran is the two-faced "best childhood friend" of Lum. Yeah, I mean Rei. I just kept f-ing up names is all.www.alternatehistory.com
Urusei Yatsura (1981 TV series) - Wikipedia

Also, not to brag or anything, but I was the one that suggested to dub the show under Fox. And the rewards couldn't have been bigger after all this time!
Not only that, but now Lum will be getting her own mural on the Fox backlot.

Before I forget, later this year, HBO will host a 35th anniversary celebration in Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, PA (Roughly 2 hours north of Philadelphia). In the years since Urusei Yatsura made its HBO debut in 1983, the network has now embraced the show as an important pillar to its history. Of course, during Urusei Yatsura's original run on HBO, the network, along with Cinemax were sold to Bally in early 1986 when original parent company Time-Life, Inc. wanted to shed its non-print assets.

One additional exciting announcement I wanna make before we get to May 2007.
Kingdom Hearts: The Series (FOX; Disney/Legendary/Square Enix) has now been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the highest-budgeted Saturday Morning series in the history of American television.

Speaking of high end American animation would it be possible to get Trollhunters tales of Arcadia in 2010

1: That makes sense.
2: That judge did the right thing.
3: Okay, that might be a good idea.
4: I hope the convincing works.
5: For UY to be on the same level as Tales from the Crypt and The Sopranos AND to have its English opening written by a Disney Renaissance icon, it just makes me like it more ITTL than IOTL.
Although, and I just thought about this, there might be a part for Gus on True Blood, which comes out in September 2008 on HBO.

Let’s go Suns! Get that 2007 title we should have got! (I swear they would have that year if Nash didn’t shoved). For hockey, gonna have to pick Ottawa, considering they lost IOTL and I’ve always liked the Senators logos and colors.
Why couldn’t the first honorable mention been higher? 😢
Chris Rock taking the role of SLAPpy is delightfully ironic.
Is Tales from the Crypt the same as IOTL?
Is Tales from the Crypt the same as IOTL?
Pretty much, right?
Also, yes Tales from the Crypt is the same as OTL. Plus, Paramount Comics brought the original EC comics back into reprints while producing new installments during the show's run.

Well, I'll be a rat's ankle. An animated series, and one not even from America, pretty much topped HBO's list for the occasion.

Right! And that anime block was my idea, but @OldNavy1988 chose the name.
AWESOME!!!
But I would've made One Piece the headliner of the block.
What other shows will air on it and what time will it air?
And what will the branding be like? @ExowareMasses, can you cook up a logo for Bullet Train?
That's great! But I would've personally just given her their newest best cars at the time for free.
Well, that's cool.
Please.......................................
Just............
Yep! Speaking of which, can we get a new "State Of Animation" post considering how we really didn't have one since the turn of the century @OldNavy1988?
Yep.
Wait what?.......
