During the time period of October 31st to November 24th, 1998, kids were encouraged to mail in a post card to Fox Kids with their vote of their favorite tv show. The winning show would then air a marathon of episodes, thus "taking over the tv". Other prizes for voting included a wide screen TV and 1000 people who sent in postcards would win Crash Bandicoot: Warped Video Games.

The Fox Kids Magazine - Winter 1998 issue had the following full-page ad for the contest:

Script:
The very beginning is cut off, but Iolaus said something like, "I have an idea."
Hercules: Not again.
Iolaus: We get your ol'Dad Zeusie-baby to rig the TV takeover.
Jason: That's not fair.
Iolaus: Fair-shmare.
Hercules: Listen, we won't need his help. [to camera] Will we?
Iolaus: Who are you looking at?
Hercules: What?
Jason: Who are you talking to?
Hercules: Nobody. [to camera] Shh.
Hercules leaves. Jason and Iolaus stare at the camera, looking for who Hercules was talking to.
Iolaus: Hey, clean your room!
