A young Canadian lad much like any other lad his age was channel surfing looking for something interesting to watch, he stopped on channel 48 for channel 48 twas the Ottawa cable system home of our national animation station Teletoon.

And when the young lads dial stopped on Teletoon, he came across an episode of a show that led him to making said show a permanent part of his TV viewing schedule.

That episode was the ever popular first season romp: Store Wars.

This 22 and half minuet tail of streamers, massage chairs, dancing cacti and rip off artists, was the first giant step into converting me into a die hard fan and since that day it has been one hell of a toboggan ride.

That is almost exactly like my first viewing of the show, Taranchula, only Telletoon is on channel 23 in my area.
I was flipping through channels and happened upon the episode "Store Wars". I made an effort to avoid the show because Telletoon's advertisements for the show made it look like it was a show for their pre-school line up. I was hooked immediately.
I was very fortunate that it was that particular episode that I chanced upon. I was absolutely captivated by Frankie's character and her efforts to keep everything under control amidst the sheer chaos that the others where causing. I was overwhelmed by the excellent writing, vocal performances, animation, and the intelligence that the show emitted. I knew then and there that I struck gold.
