NOTE 3  - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Reference is made to Notes 8 and 9 of the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements included in the Company's Form 10-K.

NOTE 4  - EARNINGS PER SHARE

The computation of the shares outstanding for the period is based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Warrants
outstanding have not been included in the earnings per share calculation as the
effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.


                                                                               7

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF
         OPERATIONS AND PLAN OF OPERATION

THIS REPORT IS BEING FILED IN DECEMBER 1997. THE COMPANY HAS FILED VARIOUS
ANNUAL AND PERIODIC REPORTS SINCE THE DATES OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS
REPORT. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT SUCH SUBSEQUENT REPORTS IN EVALUATING THE
DISCLOSURE CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT SINCE THE SUBSEQUENT DISCLOSURE IS MATERIAL.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Company's financial statements and notes thereto.

The Company has not had any operating revenues since 1995. It has operated on
credit and advances from its board of directors.

At the present time the Company's only assets are its rights in its "Little
Toot" special and completed series, and its partially completed "Cliff Hanger"
series. The Company had determined not to complete the "Cliff Hanger" series,
and present management is seeking to maximize value for stockholders and
creditors by pursuing various alternatives, which include disposition of its
distribution rights to existing inventory. There can be no assurance that any of
these efforts will be successful, and if such efforts do not succeed the Company
will be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company is planning a $450,000 private placement of Units consisting of an
8% Senior Secured Note and Common Stock Purchase Warrants. In addition, the
Company is conducting discussions with a view towards selling its interest in
its partially completed "Cliff Hanger" series.

The Company is incurring general and administrative costs. Such costs are fully
accrued at the end of the period.


                                                                               8

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.

         Following the cessation in 1995 of the Company's program creation and
production businesses, management sought to obtain additional financing or to
merge or form a joint venture of the Company's operations with those of another
business. The efforts were unsuccessful, and, in late 1996, a group of the
Company's common stockholders acted by written consent to replace the incumbent
management with a Board of Directors designated by such stockholders. The
incumbent board rejected such removal, claiming that as a result of recent
issuances of additional Common Stock, the holders executing such consents did
not constitute a majority of the Common Stock. The holders instituted litigation
in the Delaware Court of Chancery, seeking, inter alia, to cancel the
recently-issued shares and for an order declaring the consents valid and
effective. That litigation was settled in January, 1997 with the incumbent board
agreeing (i) to cancel the purported issuance of additional Common Stock, and
(ii) that all directors other than Mr. Ike Suri would resign and be replaced by
designees of such holders. Pursuant to that agreement, Messrs. Frank Cantatori,
Joel Gossman and Robert Fallah have resigned from all positions held by them
with the registrant. Steven Rosner and Bernard Buchwalter and Richard Someck
were appointed as directors in their stead. Following the replacement of the
board, the new board issued to each of the new directors, and to Mr. Suri, 1,000
shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.01 per share, as compensation for
service as directors for the ensuing year. The newly elected board also resolved
to indemnify Mr. Suri for not more than $13,000 in legal fees which he had
incurred on the registrant's behalf in resisting the change in control. The
present Board of Directors consists of Messrs. Buchwalter, Rosner, Someck and
Suri. As of the date of this report, the numbers of the shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned, directly or indirectly by the Directors are as follows:
