Yi Gi Oh....addictive for adults?

Voltron anyone... the base for Power Rangers-- it had to be good to have that kind of impact

Or Scooby-doo, of course, but those probably are as good as you remember them. Besides, there's new ones of those too.

The new scooby TV show bites, they are kids again . Best thing out of that franchise of recent years was the Scooby Doo on Zombie island mini movie. The flick had decent detail on the zombies and used them quite creatively IMHO. I though it was pretty cool when Fred

tore a zombie's head off

. the "Its terror time again" hair metal song was catchy too. Top that off with shaggy as a rent-a-cop for the opening of the movie and BaM! instant classic.

Uh, I was thinking more along the lines of Spiderman and His Amazing Friends, Flash Gordon or Thundarr the Barbarian. That kind of stuff. Speed Frikkin Racer.

Now that takes me back. You talking about Flash Gordon and the Defenders of the Earth? Remember that Spiderman ep where the X-men made an appearance, where Iceman and Firestar had to go to a X-men meeting? Go Speed Racer

USA Cartoon Express: Turbo Teen, Hair Bear Bunch, Speed Buggy, the list goes on...

I remember when Transformers only came on during the Bozo the Clown show and they gave away a free transformer to some lucky kid.

I'm talking about this Flash Gordon right here. I don't remember the full title, though.

There might have been more than one with the X-men. I particularly remember one where Juggernaut was the villain, and I think Spidey ended up having to be the one that snatched his helmet off at the last minute so Professor X could zap him telepathically, literally seconds before Juggernaut flattened him and his wheelchair both. I also remember that immediately after Spidey and his Amazing Friends was a Hulk cartoon. Those two together made my favorite hour of TV all week. In fact, I don't think I've liked any show on TV as much as I liked those two back to back when I was nine or ten, or however old I was when they were new.

Ah, different ones then. The one I'm remembering had Flash Gordon's kid in it, as well as a bunch of other heroes, like the Phantom, and their kids.

Same one I was thinking about. I remember the Hulk cartoon, where Rick Jones was always wearing a cowboy hat and rode around on a motorcycle, a good sidekick for the Hulk. A very good block of time. I like Spiderman and His Amazing Friends better than when it was just Spidey all by himself.
