For the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S we take a little break with the collection of intros from episodes 716-720, with an extra intro to tuck you in. (also not extra intro is tucked in due to the fact the project files and release files were different. So this collection includes the intros for  

714 - Ice Cream Barons | Stan Chronicles 11 because the project file is listed as episode 716 as well as the 719 - The Greatest Greeter, which has an unnumbered project file. Oh what fun it is to take a trip to the project past!
