Holy Cow - I have had a time getting back on these boards. LOL My original name was Nickelpeed. I couldn't sign in because it kept on telling my my password was wrong. It's been driving me crazy, so I just opened another account!

I am so excited about the new season and the movie. I'm looking forward to it all.

Bischonmom, I know I'm late, but I am so sorry about Bianca. That is so very sad. As an animal lover, it breaks my heart. As a dog owner, aside from my child, my dogs are my best friends.

Thank you. Bianca ashes sit in my bedroom until I am ready to plant something and scatter her ashes around the base. Then her body will be as free as her beautiful, tiny soul.

New Episode Descriptions:

The Whiskers stray onto Commando territory, where they are taught a lesson by the feared enemy, Nikita. Seacrest then stays behind for lessons of another kind!

Meerkat Manor
The Family Way
TV-PG (S)

Rocket Dog's pregnancy causes problems for Sophie, while rover Seacrest helps The Aztecs find a new home.

It's obvious we will see Zara in the future with the Commandos, because they are still major players. "Wilson", and Seacrest are Homestar Runner, and Philippe, the roving Young Ones brothers.

Thank you zerocharismo.

Thanks for the update, Zero!

I'm really getting excited for the season to start.

This year will be a new experience for me. I'm already aware of what has really transpired in the Kalahari (as many of us are), so it will be fun to try and decipher all of the film clips and credit them to real life happenings. I can't wait!

So the two Young Ones brothers are from the Commandos group, according to MM. The YO were never named as such on MM. They were stand-ins for other groups. Since the only YO members left in the area (except for Teabag, and Biltong in the Elveera group) were HR and Philippe (now only him), MM had to integrate them to another group.

The Vivian were stand-ins for the Commandos, but since Rhian died just after filming started (in November 2007), MM might show her for a little bit (the mighty Hannibal/Jim Bob died in April 2007), and then go straight to the real Commandos, that are neighbors of the Whiskers. Zara Whiskers became the DM for a short period of time, and the producer's statement mentioned a rover named "Zorro".

Thanks for the updates, Zerocharismo. I enjoy reading these episode descriptions you have been posting.

And I thought the feared enemy was Hannibal. I guess that means Hannibal's death will be addressed somehow.

In the absence of Hannibal, the feared enemy is Nikita (poor, sick Rhian). Hannibal's death is going to be addressed. MM might just mention his death, or create an elaborate story.
