The first of the Dot sequels opens with a live-action girl who just so happens to be Dot herself, and a clipshow of moments from the film that gave us the thought that she was animated the whole time. Only by having Drew Forsythe transform into an Aussie Santa does she become animated again, as do the rest of the world's inhabitants, just to ease up searching for the joey that in the last movie had been lost forever.

Of course, who am I to judge a cartoon that went ahead a century in time and pulled a true Looney Tunes in the process for the rest of the series? Anything's possible in the Dot series - you'll have a little kid singing a saddening song bearing realism regarding the circus...
