Man, ArunSenior04...MONKEY MAGIC!! The real life ninja show where he used to wave his two fingers in front of his mouth and blow out making that really strange noise so that his cloud (or something like that...I can't quite remember) would come to him and he could kick some serious ***. I can't believe that someone else watched that!! Crazy!
And don't forget Thundercats! Which, just came out on DVD for the first season release.
