Add 6 giant robots, 3 androgynous males, 3 overly endowed females, and one pre-teen girl with eyes the size of dinner plates. Combine. Bake at 350 for two hours.

There ARE different types of shows but sadly that's largely what is imported. Not all animation styles are the same either.

It took many years for Lupin III to get to US shores (outside a couple of the many films/specials).

There are a lot of soap operas on American television daytime and night (whether it is the legal dramas, medical shows, or Fox teens in expensive houses) but they are hardly the only live action programs shown on tv in America.

Oh, I know. I was just teasing. I even enjoyed the remake of Bubblegum Crisis which I thought was quit well done. But the giant robot fixation in anime borders on the psychologically interesting sometimes.

Don't forget the laserdisk game "Cliff Hanger"...
