If the cast and crew of Glee stays the same in this timeline, would an "anime cover night" season premiere be in the cards? I'd imagine the Fox dubs alone would be worth devoting an episode to, or at least a CD.

One idea that has been floating around the writers room is to have a musical of Urusei Yatsura, likely with Kurt (Chris Colfer) playing Ataru. Lum could be Santana (Naya Rivera), Tina (Jenna Ushkowitz), Brittany (Heather Morris) or Rachel (Lea Michele).

I'm also gonna need a Shinobu while we're at it.
 
Hey, it's because of Disney/Fox that anime is this mainstream to begin with by 2009.
Right.

Entertainment News for Early October 2009

Barbie Watch
Peacock executive Kevin Feige says he intends to release Ridley Scott's J. Robert Oppenheimer biopic under the RKO banner on the same day as Paramount's Barbie movie. One insider says Paramount is thinking about either a June or July 2012 release, which will prove tricky if they want to avoid direct competition with Universal's Defenders of the Earth, Disney/Fox's Into the Spider-Verse, TriStar's Battleship or Columbia's Batman: Year Three. With the next 007 film slated for an October or November release in 2012, Paramount could opt to release Barbie closer to Christmas if summer competition proves too tough.

Days before the regular season begins, the NHL Board of Governors unanimously approves the sale of the Los Angeles Kings to Earvin "Magic" Johnson and former Kings fan favorites Rob Blake and Luc Robitaille.

When the Beavers settle into their new ballpark on the former Civic Stadium site, the Breakers (WLAF) and Timbers (MLS) will continue to share the Delta Dome with plans to reconfigure the lower bowl to make the venue more football and soccer friendly.

This says early ocomber entmetn. I Asuume there will be late and possibly mid october entment new update. I got an idea for something that make a good headline for mid or late novmber. It would also work for novomber or december. Janyuary 2010 would be too late for my idea. My idea is that amshr bush sell the bush garden and seaworld park to palace entment instead of the blacktone group like they in otl 2009
 
I have a couple questions about Walt Jr.:
1: For the Disney movies under his rule, does the title card read "Walt Disney Jr. Presents" or "Walt Disney Productions Presents"?
2: Does Playhouse Disney get renamed ITTL? If so, do they skip right to calling it Mickey Mornings?

For single branded flicks that start with the castle logo released since 1984 it's "Walt Disney, Jr. Presents..."

For the first TMNT film, a dual-branded release back in 1990, the title card in the actual was "Walt Disney Pictures and 20th Century-Fox present in association with Golden Harvest..."

On the packaging for VHS and Laserdisc and eventually DVD releases, the above was condensed to "Walt Disney, Jr. Presents" in the Univers Ultra Condensed font, right above the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" title which is stacked one word each in the same Machine ITC Bold font used on the theatrical release poster.

That poster still had the Turtles peeking beneath the manhole cover in the middle of Midtown Manhattan at night.

Thank you. That's been gnawing at my head for some time.

The condensed crediting was warranted here.
