What happened?

Just suddenly remembered that waaay back I used to watch the Zeta Project on WB. Which, of course, meant that I watched maybe four, five episodes of it. Though now I wonder what the heck happened to it. I watched a LOT of WB my first two years in America (mom actually forced me to watch tv--I remember arguing with her about it because I wanted to read my Chinese books, which I could actually understand, after a day spent at school and of course mom wanted me to pick up English faster and so...). I also remember something that seemed to be called "Bruno the Kid". Watched a few episodes of X-men (the animated version, and Kurt was my favorite character, which just figures). Then there were random things with squirrels and giant chickens and a girl named Katie that could explode and, to be honest, I still don't really understand those episodes even when I pull up complete fragments of those memories. (Giant chicken dressed up as human? What?) Grew a deep fondness for the song & dance that Wacko, Yako (that how you spell it?) and Dot did though. After I've acquired enough English to figure out that hey, the educational humor's kind of neat. (Simpsons took longer time to appreciate, since you need more cultural background to understand it and cultural background isn't something you can pick up in school, if you're me.)

I wonder if this is where I started setting the trend for what I will / will not watch because less face it, I hadn't had a lot of choice / time / exposure to different genre of tv before this. (Cultural Revolution = total embargo on all things foreign, Shakespeare was burnt, Beatles never made it into the country, and there were ballet dancers who were tortured for no reason other than the fact that they are participating in a foreign pass time. Once again, idea is good, but trying to carry it out via the general public is utter disaster.) (The first foreign tv show I remembered watching is some sort of Japanese Anime, the first thing of western culture is either Bugs Bunny or a really old version of Zorro.)

(I'm afraid I'll start humming "Pinky and the Brain" under my breath when I'm not paying attention, as that now I'm affiliated with a genetics lab that uses mice.)
