Newsflash
From Episode: Calling All Monsters¡Mucha Lucha! ratings surprise! A message that came through this morning:
Mucha Lucha was the #1 series for the entire day over ALL competition in Boys 6-11 (8.4/32 – season high) More than twice its closest competition – Nickelodeon’s Fairly Odd Parents – 3.8/16.
Roy Disney quits Disney (CNN).
Flash Animation: More than a Flash in the Pan (awn.com) Fwak! was interviewed for this; also the ML animation supervisors from Bardel, and John Hardman from Kids WB network …. added also to the ML Press Archive
Some photos I wished I had taken this week:
- The fried grasshoppers we had for lunch at Guelaguetza. Yes, tasty crispy bugs with exoskeletons and legs! This Oaxacan restaurant was voted one of the best in LA Times so we checked it out with Jorge & Sandra yesterday.
- Super Dragon vs Taro in the “Mask vs Mask” match on Saturday. I only have some low-res video clips. For the first time, this indie venue was packed and the crowds came really alive during the Main Event. The little kids in the front rows were having the time of their life. It was a bit sad to see Taro give up his hood/gimmick (= retire) but that’s lucha… There goes another masked wrestler…
Later…
