Los Angeles Times episode descriptions

jump to bottom of page

These are short CEIA episode descriptions used in the Los Angeles Times weekly ``TV Times'' television listings. Thanks to a certain list member for providing these.

Accompanying the descriptions below are the episode numbers and titles as provided to the ``clarissa'' mailing list by ``urien'', a CEIA editor. No titles or numbers actually appeared in the LA Times. (The episode titles are linked to my ``episode pages''.)

The ``urien'' titles differ from those used by Nickelodeon at their AOL site. (See Nickelodeon On-Line episode descriptions for those titles.) Some of the differences are very small, but it's still important for me to know exactly what the official titles are. If you have some official connection to Nickelodeon or Thunder Pictures and could find this out, please drop me a note.
