  1. WTF?

    I should not be watching videos like this after an all day road trip and half a bottle of wine.

  2. "I got a fever, and the only prescription is more echo/reverb!"

    Loved the generic Hanna Barbera sound effects. Pure 70s cheese.

  3. mah haid asplode

    The sheer number of these kinds of goofy shows from my youth never fails to astound me. I vaguely remember this one (I think), but I doubt I ever watched more than 1 episode.

  4. oh my goshness! That does seem familiar.

    I love that the robot is waving to the camera at the end.

  6. I watched that BITD. I had completely forgotten about it until I watched the trailer on the Ark II DVD. Blast from past.

  10. All the Hanna-Barbara chicks were hot.

    Ah, the halcyon days of my youth, when directors of Saturday morning programming knew we were a bunch of horny little bastards.

  11. Most of the time, the memories come flooding back with the title sequence...but this time, nothing.

    I don't remember ever watching this. Weird. I thought I caught every offering of the Filmation repertoire.

    I love that they used the comedic whistle for both when Herc throws a boulder and when As...Ast...whatever her name was turns into a cat.

  12. For the longest time nobody would believe me, when I talked about this show. When I originally saw it on TV it was called the young sentinels and then got changed to the space sentinels.

    I have to have a screening of my DVD set for all those meatheads that thought I was making it up.

    Now all I have to find are some Chocodiles. which are another treasure of youth no one belives existed - they were like Twinkie / Hoho's - gamer ambrosia back in the day.
