While initially garnering poor ratings, it has since gained a cult following, and is also popular outside of the United States and Canada, receiving broadcasts in Australia, Eastern Europe, Latin America, Spain and New Zealand.

The designs were done by Lauren MacMullan, who cites ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
