On Google News, I found an article about Roy Disney reconciling with the Disney corporation, so I clicked to read it.
The news article was OK, but what really struck me were the ads all over the place for Pogo, which is apparently a kids' television channel in India partnered with Cartoon Network. On top, there's the Powerpuff Girls, two overly-cheerful-looking adults next to the word "kidology". Scooby Doo rests in the corner of that ad, slightly overlapping the border to the animated ad for MAD, "India's First Music, Art and Dance Show, Made Just For Kids!" A drawing of Dexter jumps out in the lower right corner of the ad.
The best one is the animated inset ad with three captioned collections of characters. The first, "Heroes", consists of two versions of Superman, one live and one animated. The second, "Super Girls", consists of two live actresses, plus Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls, and Didi from Dexter's Lab. The third, "Geniuses", has a big-haired live actor next to Dexter.
I wonder what Indian television is really like. Hey, it turns out the domain name is indiantelevision.com!
