Episodes 109 - Mysticons
from Cartoon Night in Canada Hosted by Chris Luciantonio
On this week's Pride special, we are taking you back to a dark time for LGBT representation in children's entertainment where the idea of a same-sex kiss was shot down by corporate meddling in the pre-production phase. Ok...maybe not that far back. Back in 2017, a little Nelvana magical girl show could have been one of the first steps forward for moderate representation of LGBT characters. Unfortunately for Mysticons, Nickelodeon was not willing to support the production team's vision. And we needed to sell toys...a capitalist tale as old as time. Episode covered for the podcase was episode 7 "Scourge of the Seven Skies." Written by Grant Sauvé. Directed by Matt Ferguson. Original Canadian airdate September 24, 2017.
