Historicall...G'Day mate, Danny Illiwara again,<br /><br />Historically speaking, witch hunters sent innocent people to be burned at the stake. Because hysteria insued as soon as one person accuses another of witchcraft. Ever read Arthur Miller's The Crucible in high school? <br /><br />Since this is a cartoon, I have to wonder did Lord Salem send innocents to be burned at the stake? Or just real evil witches since there would be a need in this world? Or did he do both when he found out how lucrative witch hunting can be? A town could declare 4 or 5 people (usually older women or strange men) witches/warlocks and seize their property. Worse, Lord Salem doesn't think he's a villian but a hero. <br /><br />The rule about catching witches doing magic in public is a good one, since it cuts down on the innocents burned at the stake. Though I'm sure some slipped through the cracks. <br /><br />I was just thinking that there should be the inevitable team up episode where THGs and LS have to work together to defeat the bigger bad. Perhaps as the mid-season finale 2 parter. The bigger bad comes out to hear THGs, starts attacking people, LS battles it only to be defeated. THGs can't handle it either. Lord Salem and THGs separately try to find the Macguffin Device that can stop the bigger bad. The best course of action is for them to work togethr. Riff & Raff's idea! Lord Salem goes along with it for 3reasons: <br />1. He doesn't like to be defeated by anyone.<br />2. He thinks he can't catch THGs doing magic if they're together.<br />3. He won't admit it, but he wants to be closer to the object of his desire.<br /><br />THGs don't really want to do this but the bigger bad will keep ruining their shows if they don't. When they're all taking a break- Lord Salem sits by himself reading or cleaning weapons,in the dark, Riff & Raff and Luna & Dusk sit together only because they figure that R&R are too dumb to keep anything to themselves and will spill LS' secrets (Dusk peaks under Riff's mask after what she sees she may never sleep again), Thorn doesn't want a part of any of this. Lord Salem is always creepy but in these episodes he's got the creepy turned up to 12. Thorn esepecially doesn't like how Lord Salem looks at them when he thinks they're unaware. Lord Salem tries to come up to Thorn and speak to her, but she keeps him at an arm's length. He walks up, she walks away. The others watch him slowly chase her around the area. The only thing that makes him back off is THGs cat(s). Cats are witches familiars and Lord Salem does not trust them, hates them. Cats don't like him either, they hiss and swipe at him. Cue Frollo's "Hellfire" song. They get the Macguffin Device, THGs sing, the bigger bad comes out, LS uses the Macguffin device, defeats the monster. Gives the device to Riff & Raff. He turns around, The Hex Girls are gone. He turns again only to see the Macguffin has disappeared too. Either they took it from R&R or just asked them to give it to them really sweetly. The Hex Girls don't want to hang around for the very likely double cross and aren't going to let Lord Salem keep something as powerful as the Macguffin device either. <br /><br />Thats my idea. I had some more for Lord Salem's descandent. But I'll stop for now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-53629775664677284792010-07-22T10:43:06.585-05:002010-07-22T10:43:06.585-05:00G'Day mate, Danny Illiwara again,

Yes. ;)<br /><br />Jasper is the comic relief guy for THG while Riff and Raff tone down the menace of Lord Salem (who should be very scary). <br /><br />Salem is evil and he uses magic which is exactly what he is fighting against. So your idea of the judge from the Disney Hunchback is a good idea.<br /><br />I'll have to see if I do more episode ideas. Unlike season 1 I am not sure if I will ever get the chance to run this particular game.<br /><br />A guilty verdict would mean that yes. But the idea here is to have the Court commute their sentence due to all the good works they have done and then instead imprison Salem on the same charges. simple? Yeah, but it is supposed to mimic an 80s cartoon.Timothy S.

I was just ...G'day mate, Danny Illiwara again,<br /><br />I was just thinking about this the other night, but what is the tone of The Hex Girls Show? Action-comedy? Musical-comedy? Musical-drama? Meaning, are the situations that THGs end up in serious or played for laughs like Scooby Doo? Jasper, Riff & Raff, and Flash can all be comic relief while THGs can be more serious. I'm guessing the show is somewhere between Gargoyles and Mystery, Inc. <br /><br />The reason I ask, because I had this idea for Lord Salem. Remember, Disney's Huncback of Notre Dame? Where Judge Frollo wanted to eradicate all the gypsies, but also lusted after Esmeralda. It could be the same thing with Lord Salem, he hates, yet is fascinated by witches in general and THGs in particular. <br />At the end of the season when Lord Salem drags the girls to the Neither World court- a guility verdict would mean burning at the stake? Unless he offers them a deal.<br /><br />Either that or Lord Salem's descendant is alive and well and a fan of THGs. Lord Salem seeks him out, but can't win his support cause he has a crush on Luna or Dusk.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-55114416557859352092010-07-19T18:31:24.297-05:002010-07-19T18:31:24.297-05:00I have the original Cartoon Action Hour. I haven&#...I have the original Cartoon Action Hour. I haven't used it, but it was a great read.<br /><br />Lord Salem really is a great villain. I can see his justification of using supernaturals. "Maybe the abominations will kill each other off." Reminds of me of General Eiling, especially his acts in the "Patriot Act" episode of JLU (one of my favorites). I might use a character like him in my next Buffy game.<br /><br />Oh yeah and I checked out the anti-Hex Girl site you linked.

He is doing things that he would find "evil" but that is the point of his obsession; he has become what he hates.Timothy S.

Except I'm a bit confused. If he's using supernatural beings to attack THGs then doesn't that make him a warlock? Of is it just because he's dead that he can do these things? What I mean, is did he have the power to raise spirits when he was alive? <br /><br />I like the music business- side of a band cartoon. Such as the Hex Girls making music videos, doing interviews, interacting with fans, publicity, getting paid, and of course the creative aspects of actually composing music (like coming up with lyrics that rhyme).<br /><br />And since this a show starring women there should be copious amounts of romance. Misunderstandings, love triangles, crushes, etc should be sprinkled about. With careful seasonal planning all this and the ghostbusting aspects can still be in play.<br /><br />Are you going to be making up episodes for this season like you did the first season?<br /><br />Do you ever plan on having the Scooby Gang guest star?<br /><br />Another show you might like that uses aspects of music to battle villians is a British cartoon called Freefonix. It has excellent music. The heroes sound like the Black Eyed Peas while the villians Mantyz sound like a glam-rock band. <br /><br />Here's the trailer to the show.<br /><br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULqxzRaCmx4 <br /><br />And their website.<br /><br />http://www.freefonix.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-58837173954587841522010-07-14T17:44:13.631-05:002010-07-14T17:44:13.631-05:00Ooo.
