SUMMER SOLSTICE, BUT MAKE IT 90S

Cartoon Quiz Show

The 90s was a time when MTV and Cartoon Network were the most popular tv channels. The Cartoon-Cartoons series, the first productions of Genndy Tartakovsky, "Daria" and "Celebrity Deathmatch" and on the other hand “Sailor Moon" with Italian dubbing. The opening event - Summer Solstice - will be nostalgic and full of humor. If the phrase "Omlette du fromage!" makes you smile and " In the name of the Moon, I'll punish you!" gives you a slight shiver, then the crazy Cartoon Quiz Show of the '90s is sure to be a lot of fun.
