Talk:La Linea (TV series)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Its a pity that this Italian cartoon series doesnt have a page in Italian itself. I guess a lot of first hand info could be had from a person who has seen the cartoons and has known this series in its original cultural context.
- now there is...
Many American children were introduced to "La Linea" in the early to mid-1980s when clips of the cartoons were shown, seemingly uncredited, on the television program "The Great Space Coaster." Roy (Ray Stevens) would often take out a small, hand-held device and show the clips to Goriddle Gorilla. Interesting to note that Goriddle was played by Kevin Clash, who went on to much greater success as the puppeteer for Elmo on Sesame Street...and that the voice of the main character in the La Linea shorts arguably sounds like Elmo speaking in Italian. I'd add at least the first part of this to the La Linea entry here, but I don't know Wikipedia protocol and I know how, eh, particular you Wikipedi-ists can be. =)

There's an strangle erotic episode called Eros Linea. Didn't see that on Great Space Coaster. Mark Forest 23:40, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:La linea.gif
Image:La linea.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
