Watch “The Mighty B” This Saturday
Watch the premiere of The Mighty B on Nickelodeon Saturday morning at 10:30 a.m. or else! I’ve seen a couple of episodes, and the best of the many compliments I can pay it is I think it’s funny just looking at the video, and I think it’s funny just listening to the audio. (But you should do both.)
Pico & Sepulveda (Where Nobody’s Dreams Come True)
For you Angelenos out there, an animated verison of Felix Figueroa (aka Freddy Martin) and his Orchestra’s “Pico & Sepulveda” by SlushoSteve.

Garlic Boy (And Disney Rarities) In Newport Beach
A big congratulations to John Dilworth. His contribution to Random! Cartoons, “Garlic Boy”, is going to be screened at the Newport Beach Film Festival in Newport Beach, California. If you want to see the boy of garlic with his tonic that’s “good for what ails ya”, you need to go to the Shorts for Shorties screening at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, 4/26.
Oh, and you may also want to attend An Evening of Disney Animation Rarities with Roy E. Disney and Don Hahn, part of the festival on Wednesday night, April 30. From the festival website:
“Join noted filmmakers and Academy Award nominees Roy E. Disney and Don Hahn as they present an unforgettable evening of rarely seen Disney animated shorts and experimental films. Roy and Don will screen a collection of short animated films that had limited theatrical presentations, many of which are not available for viewing on DVD.”
