I wish they'd release FISH POLICE (1992). I didn't get to see it when it initially aired (my parents wouldn't let me stay up) and was always curious about it. I remember the mermaid looked a little like a blonde Jessica Rabbit.

Wish I had taped it back when it was on Disney.
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

From memory, not from google (helped by some very nice red wine at dinner):
Now...everybody knows in a second life
We all come back sooner or later
As anything from a pusSycat
To a man-eating alligator.
Well, you all may think my story
Is more fiction than it's fact,
But believe it or not, my mother dear
Decided she's come back--
As a car!
She's my very own (beat, beat) guiding star!
A 1928 Porter--
That's my mother dear!
She helps me through
Everything I do
And I'm so glad she's here!
My mother, the car!

SCORCH THE DRAGON (1992)
IMDb SUMMARY:
"Scorch was a 1300-year-old dragon who lived with TV weatherman Brian and his daughter Jessica. Scorch could talk, and appeared with Brian on his news program posing as a ventriloquist's dummy. Scorch would make jokes during Brian's weather forecasts. No one knew Scorch's real identity."
Tell me THAT doesn't deserve a DVD release!

Elphie, do you know that Swan's Crossing's "Sandy" was Baby Louise in the 1989 GYPSY revival? She's now grown up and married.
