I remeber this, back when I had 2 channels and a computer that I could play pong on. And that was it.

Just a curiosity, how were these tapes distributed?

[TuneTamasha]

@bluenowait I exactly don't know, but I understand that a limited number of these tapes have been handed out by Cartoon Network to some cable operators, journalists and viewers for promotional purposes around winter 1992. It even says on the cover: "This tape is strictly promotional and is not intended for sale or resale. If you like what you see, call your local cabel operator and ask him to add the Cartoon Network to your basic cable lineup." I hope that answers your question...

I look at the current state of Cartoon Network and hang my head in shame.

The tape pretty much lacked of The Moxy Show. Was the show released a year later?

[TuneTamasha]

@CartoonNothing: Yup, the Moxy Show debuted in winter of 1993, basically a year later from when this tape was released.

Cool. Also, what happened to the color when the video was originally upload via TV tuner?

[TuneTamasha]

@CartoonNothing: Well, originally, I recorded the tape with a tv tuner and vcr, but the color was black & white, because there was some problem with the cable connecting them. These segments uploaded now in color, were recorded with a camera off the tv screen. I'm planning to get these tapes transferred directly to dvd - that way I can upload the material in studio quality which was used during broadcast, because the tape itself is in excellent condition.

@CartoonNothing This video is from his camera.

[CartoonNothing]

@TheSpongebob1212 - I know. I was just asking him why the color was screwed when capturing it from his TV tuner.

@CartoonNothing Oh. >.>

@TheSpongebob1212 How come when people record a screen the picture isn't clear?
