Very Good Adventures
A couple of my friends are working on a new animated series for the CBC: The Very Good Adventures of Yam Roll in Happy Kingdom. It's about a little superhero named Yam Roll, a sushi roll cab driver with superpowers. He has friends like Edamame, Yaki Tori, Sake, and Tamago. Too bad he loves that unappreciative Minamiko.
The show premiers on Feb. 6 at 4:30, but you can watch a preview on the website. It already looks like a winner. First, Yam Roll and his friends are cute. Second, the show is funny and original (unless there is already a cartoon about Japanese food superheros). And third, the merchandising possibilities are endless (video games).

oh man all my favourite things rolled (yes rolled) into one: sushi, comedy and cuteness
