It appears to be a one-time only special deal between episodes. He's not going to be narrating it or anything like that.

I guess we don't have to worry about the first episode being interrupted by gremlins.

Don't knock Lou Albano! He was a better Mario than Bob Hoskins. And at least it's not a bunch of losers like the people who hosted The Power Team.

Captain Lou was a better Mario by default, and I love how DiC puts episodes of the Super Mario Brothers Super Show on Yahooligans (legitimate, fully-authorized, streaming video link).

Good cheesy fun that show was. And the background music in the Brooklyn scenes sounds similar to Joe Hisaishi's Kiki's Delivery Service score.

And how almost every episode had a special song. I loved the cheesy Bond spoof episode when they played "Secret Agent Man". Ahhh. Was just a mere child back then. =P

Also, it was revealed in the latest issue of Anime Insider magazine that Sanji's cigarette will be digitally transform into a lollipop. Sad

JC, Will the censoring never end? It's just a smoke god damnit! Plus that takes away so much from Sanji's personality. ahhhh this sucks. oh well, It's for the kids tho ... ... so I'm not too mad about it. ... All i gota say is thank-God for AS. or else we would have seen Wolfood and Spike sucking on lollipops! (instead of puffing on a smoke)

oh btw if you wondering here is the offcial press release

------
btw on a site note Arnold is a better speaking than I though. He must have practiced a lot.

Editing out a cigarette isn't that bad. Smoking IS hazardous anyway, and children can do without the advertisement. Plus, lolipops looked decent on Snoop Dog. =P

To add to GATSU's post.. Hulk's 16-year-old daughter, Brooke Hogan will be the special guest hosts for Fox Box for the first 2 weeks. I hear Brooke is pop star. Anyone know if she's good looking?? I can't find any pictures of her online.

I've seen her once or twice. She is rather good looking. But a lollipop instead of a cigar? Kids are surrounded by cigarette smokers everday (parents). But I guess it's for kids.
