it's popular...  BTW, when does the new season start?
Are you talking about Phil from the Antigravity Room? I 
love him!  He's > Cool!  That's my favorite show!

	Yeah, Phil from Antigrav room - he's the VJ for YTV's afternoon 
programming up here in Canada.  Awesome VJ.  Bassist, Anime fan, cool 
attitude...

Arghh!!  I *HATE* him! Him and that stupid TV-freak-thing he pretends to
talk to.  But thats just me....  ^_^

Also, I regret to inform you that there will be no more Sailor Moon on US 
television *sob*.  It is cancelled and chances are slim that it will ever 
appear on TV again....

	Oh well.  Actually, I was more wondering about Reboot... but I 
guess that's off subject.  

Well... I dunno for sure, but I can make an educated guess.  The fall
schedule change begins next week. Reboot moves to Monday evenings
(repeated when in the week, I don't know). But I believe they'll still be
showing reruns for a few more weeks. I'm guessing that the last week of
august or the week after that is when the new season will start. I can
hardly wait...

Sailor Moon was fun while it lasted... but I'm 
sure they'll find some cool other anime to replace it (I hope!  
Personally, I'd love to see Robotech or G-Force again... havn't seen 
_those_ in YEARS!)

Dragonball is playing on YTV right now too. But I believe that already
been canceled too. I don't know of any other anime shows that'll be
crossing the water to our TV anytime soon, but then again I don't try to
follow those things...

Robotech was excellent on TV, but recently I rented a few of the first
episodes on tape and watched them again. I was disappointed. I guess I
remember them as being better than they actually where. I think I'll stick
to my memories of the show instead, although I'd be real interested in
getting a hold of the original episodes that have been subbed.

G-Force??  I don't recall that one specifically.  I do remember seeing two
different shows as a kid that now, looking back, I realize must have been
anime translations. One was called THUNDERBIRDS 2086 or something close
and it was a clone of the 60s thunderbirds story (the 60s thunderbirds was  
on YTV until last year. Gawd, what a great network). The other I don't
recall much about except there was a ship/vehicle/vessel/whatever called
the 'fiery phoenix' in it.  Was either of these shows G-Force??  I'd kill
to get a hold of some episodes of either one of them.
