It's also quite old.

I prefer the original, but to each their own.

Yeah, that art style looks very familiar. I'll have to look into it more, since I'm starting to doubt some of the other details I provided. Oh, and the wiki says the animated series started airing on Canal+ in 1996. Maybe it aired elsewhere before?

But yeah, I think this is it ๐Ÿ‘.

P.S. Iznogoud, like "is no good". I must have misremembered his name, cuz that makes sense!

When does it started ? Do you have law prohibiting smoking in public place like restaurant, transports, nigth club, office, etc ?

Pretty much this. From the late 80's more and more smoking bans were put into place. Public buildings, any private business, public transport, etc.

It's at the point now that the only places you can smoke are your own house (even the apartment buildings I've been to have no smoking rules. Like, even in your own apartment) or outside (as long as it's x feet/meters away from a building's entrance).

Oh, man, when I was a kid around 1990 I was in France (maybe? Pretty sure it was somewhere in Europe), and they had this subtitled cartoon (I didn't know either language) that "starred" a villain named something like Amin Tumani ("I'm in to money", but made into a name) that was a stereotypical middle easterner. And to add to the crazy I'm 99.9% sure he died at the end of every episode.

If anyone knows anything about this cartoon, LMK.

Might want to remind them they do expire (and won't test positive even when the virus is present)...

I had to get rid of my US Robotics (freshly rebranded from... I can't remember?) 56k when I moved last time. Part of my soul was left with that modem.

This modem:
