ON HOLD
Fall 09: Wild and Wacky West
Yeeee-haw! It's tough to be a Sheriff who don't get no respect, and the townfolk are constantly making fun of cowardly Sheriff 'Jitters' James McGee, a man afraid of nothing... except bandits, parties, the dark, loud noises, cave bats, and, of course, moustaches. But when the townfolk discover that the Queen of the Town Fair has been kidnapped, it's up to Sheriff Jitters to find her before the big festival starts! Along the way he meets wacky outlaw gang Six-Saddlin' Sue and the Snakeshoe Crew... and learns what true courage really is.

After all, they're too scared to go themselves -- everyone says the house is haunted!
