Question: In this episode, Link is in a town that is attacked by an Octoroc and several large minions that appear to be a red and white knight in armor sort of thing. Link attacks and calls them by their name. It sounds like he is saying Tin Suits. But I am unsure. And there is no option for captions or subtitles on the DVD.

Chosen answer: He does in fact call them Tinsuits.

King Ottokar's Sceptre: Part 2 - S2-E5
Question: When Tintin and the King discover King Ottokar's scepter had been stolen, both Hector and the guards are shown to have been knocked out. Later, Tintin points out that Hector had stolen the scepter by placing it in a camera, put it next to the window and shot it out of the window using the camera. If that's how Hector managed to get the scepter out of the building, then what was it that caused Hector and the guards to get knocked out? (00:33:10 - 00:35:50)
Chosen answer: If Hector was seriously intent on removing King Ottokar's scepter from the glass cage holding it and launching it through the window with the camera, then Hector would have been forced to knock out the two guards so they would not have interfered with Hector's plan as soon as he removed the scepter from the glass. As for Hector, himself, was explained when Tintin was explaining how Hector stole the scepter. Tintin placed a twig inside the camera and it launched out of the camera. Hector would have placed the scepter inside of the camera, and would have been knocked unconscious due to the spring effect created when the scepter had been launched.
Question: At the end of the episode why does Daria look down and say "Damn" to herself?
Answer: Earlier, Quinn prods Daria to imagine having the object of her infatuation, Trent, as an actual boyfriend, and to picture her dream exactly the way it will be. Then, Daria's imagination turns her dream of being with Trent into an extremely unpleasant future, and Daria says, "I think I just got over something," which means she got over her infatuation with Trent. At the end of the episode, Trent tells Daria that it's too bad she's not older, so he could take *her* out, then Trent leaves. Daria then envisions a romanticized future with her perfect Trent, and in this dream Trent tells her, "Daria, you're the best thing that ever happened to me." And just like that, Daria's infatuation with Trent is back, and Daria exclaims, "Damn," in frustration.
Question: Why was the first season of this cartoon received so negatively?
Answer: Gleaned from the Internet: Some critics criticized the premise of so many one-off battles that were introduced and concluded within one or two episodes. Others felt the first-season plot lines were overly simplistic and never progressed or developed through the season. Also, the rivalry between Iron Man and the Mandarin also failed to capture viewer's attention.
Chosen answer: The general consensus is that Big Bird is a canary; however, according to Wikipedia, he's also been described as a condor as well as an ibis. The one constant factor is that regardless of his species, Big Bird is always eight feet, two inches tall and flightless.
La guerre du mini golf - S3-E23
Question: Why was Jack laughing at the end of this episode after Oggy accidentally hit him with a pétanque ball?

Heavy Meddle/Making the Case - S1-E2
Question: In "Making the Case", why were Luan and Lily angry with Lincoln about the video? He didn't record any embarrassing footage of them.
Answer: Luan is mad at him because he broke the unspoken rule of posting a video without the person's consent. Lily is a baby and is probably impersonating the older sisters she looks up to. They are mad so she is mad.
Question: Why was this series cancelled after one season?
Question: Why was the first season of this cartoon received so negatively?
Answer: Gleaned from the Internet: Much of the negative reaction was due to the poor, simplistic, and outdated quality of the animation where the characters moved stiffly and clumsily through scenes. There were also some obvious animation compositing gaffs. The animation colors were also criticized as being overly bright and cheery and out of character to the established story's darker tone. The broad humor of the first season was replaced by a more mature narrative between the characters.
Question: Why did writers decide to kill Gambit off?
Answer: The post-credits scene from season 1 implies that Apocalypse is going to bring him back to life as his Horseman of Death, which Gambit was at one point in the comics. I also read that former showrunner Beau DeMayo had planned for Gambit to be the central character of season 3, which would have been an adaptation of the Age of Apocalypse storyline from the comics, which seems to imply Gambit will eventually be freed from Apocalypse's control. Whether that is what ends up happening remains to be seen, since DeMayo was fired by Marvel before season 1 premiered.
Question: Why was this series cancelled after one season?
Answer: According to MTV, even though the ratings were high compared to other shows in the same time slot, the series did not fit in with its other programming.
Question: Throughout the series, Sarah has been shown to have excessive anger, as well as hostility towards her older brother. Is it ever revealed why she is so angry?
Answer: She's just a spoiled, bratty younger sister.
Question: Is there a particular reason why they decided to get rid of Scorpinock and Terrasaur?
Chosen answer: Terrorsaur was probably removed because his character was far overshadowed by Tarantulas. Both characters were treacherous and backstabbing towards Megatron, but it wouldn't have made sense to have two characters who served the same purpose, story-wise. Scorponok was removed because they wanted to introduce Quickstrike, and it wouldn't have made sense to have two scorpion characters on the show.
Question: Where did Kim get all of these gadgets?
Answer: From technogenius Wade. There's at least one scene in the show where she gets some new gadgets from him.
Question: I've heard that the original name for this show wasn't "The Powerpuff Girls" and that the original name had to be censored. Anyone knows what was the original name of this show and why it was censored?
Answer: The original name of the show was "The Whoopass Girls", so called because their father accidentally spilled a can of whoopass into the sugar, spice, and everything nice. The reason that this was changed should be obvious. You'll never be able to sell a bunch of toys to children if these toys have the the word "whoopass" on the front.
Question: What is the true origin of the Constructicons? "Heavy Metal War" claims they were built on Earth by Megatron, but "The Secret of Omega Supreme" shows them already on Cybertron before the war on Earth began. Is this a legitimate mistake or is there a reason behind it?
Answer: This was actually one of many errors in Transformers, the Constructicons MUST have been built on Cybertron, the only transformers genuinely built on earth were the dinobots, reason being Vector Sigma has to give personalities to each and every robot, else they end up like the dinobots, very simple and dumb. For reference watch the episode "The Key to Vector Sigma" which introduces the Stunticons and Arielbots - both Megatron and Optimus Prime have to go to Vector Sigma to get decent personality traits installed, prior to this the new robots are controlled by remote controllers and have no AI.
Chosen answer: The rings represent what is called the "Emotional Spectrum". Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. Where Green is the representation of will, the Star Sapphires are given violet rings, which represent the emotion of love.
