Talk:Adventures in Nutrition with Captain Carlos (Found Playhouse Disney Interstitial Series)/@comment-5873607-20170404230632

I'd like to share some insight because I remember watching these shorts as a kid. Unfortunately, it's pretty much impossible I have any footage of it, since we did not have cable until 2010 and I watched it at my grandparents' house, where we probably never recorded in the 2008 era.

I do remember that the general format and pattern of the show remained the same every time. Watching that one english short available, it's what I remembered: Carlos wants to do an athletic activity, his sister recommends a junk food instead of a healthy food, but when Carlos eats the healthy food he is able to succeed that day. If any new footage were to be discovered, I'm sorry to say that it wouldn't be that interesting. In other words, a great piece of animation has not been tragically lost, because it was only an okay series of shorts, and all episodes were in the same format and pattern of the one english short we have.

I do remember playing a Captain Carlos game on Playhouse Disney's website while the shorts were on the air, though. I think Carlos had to move up and down a field to collect healthy food and avoid junk food, and once a meter was full, he became Captain Carlos and scored a soccer goal. I distinctly remember a scene that he kicked the soccer ball so hard the net was ripped out of the frame. The exaggerated strength of the kick amized me, which is I guess the reason why I remembered it.

Although I have no footage to offer, maybe these recollections could help someone. But overall, we're not missing out on anything crucial.
