* WolverinePublicity: The opening titles feature Webby from ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales'', but she never appears in any of the cartoons or host segments. As we stated earlier, the Disney Afternoon was still going strong, and ''[=DuckTales=]'' was its flagship show.

* TheRenaissanceAgeOfAnimation

The year was 1992. TheRenaissanceAgeOfAnimation was still relatively young, and despite Creator/{{Disney}} making headway into the television market with WesternAnimation/TheDisneyAfternoon, and a few {{Saturday Morning Cartoon}}s, they still had serious competition from the likes of Creator/WarnerBros, Turner Broadcasting (which was in the process of launching a scrappy little cable channel called Creator/CartoonNetwork), and Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}.

* '''Totally Tasteless Videos:''' This segment was kind of a toss-up. One week, it could be about a [[{{Cavemen}} caveman]] who is also a PrivateDetective; the next week, it could be about haunted poultry. There was no "Totally Tastless Videos" short on episodes #4 and #8.
