Interview Alert!

Big news, readers! I get to do an interview FOR MY BLOG for a change! I'm super excited about it. In fact, I'm SO excited, I'll give you a hint about the interviewee...

Hint number 1...

Sigh.... No, it's not DJ Lance Rock. Sorry. Although... if DJ Lance Rock's publicist is reading this.... get a hold of me! ;)

Still curious? Okay, I'll be nice. Here is hint number 2...

Okay, well, that's less of a hint and more of "hey, this is the guy!". That is Christian Jacobs, aka M.C. Bat Commander, and creator of The Aquabats! Super Show! He also is the creator of Yo Gabba Gabba and the voice of Plex the robot and Gooble. Needless to say, this guy oozes awesomeness. In fact, is your mind blown from his awesomeness yet?

So, stay tuned loyal readers! Big things goin' on over here at TheTVMom.com! Woohoo!

Have a question YOU would like to ask Mr. Jacobs? Leave it here in the comments!

Pound Puppies - Mission: Adoption on DVD

Another fantastic DVD from my friends over at Shout! Factory... Pound Puppies! I personally love this show. It's got a lot of familiar voices (Will from Will & Grace, Agent Self from Prison Break, and more!) and it's a really clever little show, good for kids of all ages!

Taz-Mania!

Yes folks, that beloved early '90s favorite, Taz-Mania, is back! Coming May 14th, "Taz-Mania: Taz on the Loose" will be available to own on DVD from Warner Home Video! I was excited to get this one in my inbox. It came on right around the same time as Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, and Tom and Jerry Kids (and it has a lot of the same voice actors!).

(Image coming as soon as Blogger decides not to be a hater!)

Click over to About.com and see more about the DVD, and buy it on May 14th!

The Pokémon Formula

If you've read this blog for a while, or if you know me in person and have talked to me for any length of time, you know that I find it fascinating that there is a whole genre dedicated to magical animals being thrown at each other for the amusement/protection/honor of their handlers. I have officially dubbed this The Pokémon Formula. For me, I find it hard to believe there is such a thing, but I am thoroughly interested in the phenomenon none the less. Click over to the Kids Cartoons page to see what I have to say about it, and come back and discuss in the comments section here!
