Supersize my Scorchio, please!

Neopets has plushie toys of various pets out in Happy Meals at McDonald's right now. There are 109 different toys. They have a page with a checklist, encouraging you to try to collect them all. Now, even assuming you got a different toy each time (good luck), you would still have to eat one hundred and nine Happy Meals to get all the toys. Is this "Super Size Me" all over again?

For those not wanting to eat that many hamburgers, you can buy the toys separately, for something like $2 apiece, which sounds like a ridiculous investment to me. enotsola speculates that a complete, unopened set might be able to be sold on eBay someday for more than it was bought for, but still.

stuff I don't know

1. Can anyone tell me what the pun or word-play is in the title of King's Quest IV, "The Perils of Rosella"? I've never gotten it.

2. Was it Nick at Nite or Comedy Central on which I used to watch SCTV following right after SNL? I'm thinking Comedy Central, but I really can't remember.
