I figured it was product placement, with Steven Speilberg making a live
action Tin-Tin movie.

I gather there is some speculation that Tin-Tin is gay, I can't remember 
if that's well argumented or if it comes merely from that Fringe Festival
show a decade ago.  Given that, I kind of expected Tin-Tin and the Captain 
to Kiss.

It never lost interest here.  Every December they run the animated 
cartoons for the holidays, and sometimes they rerun the animated series.
