There were rumors of a weekly cartoon floating around RTL last year (or was it
the year before?), but the show never happened (obviously). Same rumors said
it was supposed to be Johnny Thunder/Adventurer-based stories. Maybe it was
too expensive back then.

Also, there might be what's called "conflict of interest" in running a show
that, in the eyes of many parents, will obviously amount to a [half hour] long
commercial for TLC. (BTW, Toy Story doesn't have this problem because it
features different products from different companies throughout the toy
industry. Also, the two main characters were previous "unknowns" that were
licensed to be made by several different toy companies.)

I think a Time Twister/Cruiser theme would be best for exploring the different
Lego worlds.  Do you remember the Rudolph cartoon with Baby New Year where all
the old years had their own islands?  There was an island that was always
prehistoric, and one that was like 1492.  It's only a vague memory anymore.
But what if there was a bizarre time travel accident where minifigs from all
different times and places were thrust together on some island. There'd be all
kinds of conflict with technology and good vs evil, etc.  And just when they
thought they'd be rescued, Gilligan would screw it up... Oh wait.
