I was channel surfing, when at got to the Cartoon Network and it was
playing Sailor Moon! I know it's the Dic version but still, it surprised
me. I guess it started at 1600 hrs EST, and since it's on Cartoon
Network that must mean their going to do a super chunk on it. That
means on one saturday or sunday they'll show it for four to six hours
strait!
Actually, since the non-Quest Toonami series (Thundercats, Voltron,
Robotech, and Sailor Moon) are all syndicated through Program Exchange- that
is, Turner Enterprises/Cartoon Network has no ownership in them- it would
probably require a special contract for CN to show a 'Super Chunk' of these
shows outside Toonami.
Toonami? Interesting.
Meanwhile, in the Hong Kong coverage area:
TR: Let me finish this fic... *clack clack clack*
Scriviner: Hey, B'TX is on.
TR: Never mind, there are more important things to do.
(later)
Scriviner: Are you sure? Akazukin Chacha is on right now.
TR: It is? *Save file* I'm there!
(thirty minutes and a magical girl transformation later)
TR: All right! Back to writing The SoAP: Yellow.
Scriviner: Not now, they're showing an interesting Hong Kong English dub of
Big Trouble ii Nekonron China. Shampoo sounds so smart (of course).
TR: Really? I'm there!
(later...)
TR: Finally. Now, where was I...
Scriv: It's time for Yuu Yuu Hakusho.
TR: $%#^*@! The choices an aspiring fanfic writer must make!
(later...)
TR: Now... Finally. (falls asleep).
(The next morning...)
TR: *cracks knuckles* Now, where was I?
Scriv: Hey, it's Secret of Blue Water.
TR: AAAAARRRGH!
Basically, this is a preemptive excuse if Yellow is ever delayed. ^^;
It's also a gloat. As if you couldn't tell. ^^;

"The story grew in the most convoluted way, as many people will be
surprised to learn. Writing episodically meant that when I finished one
episode I had no idea about what the next one would contain. When, in the
twists and turns of the plot, some event suddenly seemed to illuminate
things that had gone before, I was as surprised as anyone else."
