There were absolutely a handful more, and Gary Coleman was definitely one these, too. Thank you for the reminder. And yes, I totally agree about Jackie Chan being the end.
Hey, The Skatebirds, there they are 😆 Would love to find the _Mystery Island_ segments on physical media somewhere (and the Banana Splits _Danger Island_ shorts too), guess i need to get on that 😅
Yeah, I wanted to make sure to call them out. I even remembered having their board game when doing this show. Yeah, wouldn't mind checking out those too.
Thank you. Awww, yes, you would be the audience for those first and earliest ones. I love that there was a Laurel and Hardy and an Abbot & Costello. THank you for watching and commenting.
Yes, I remember it, wasn’t too keen on it. I used to get excited if I saw it on the listings or if the announcer said it was on next as I thought it was going to be one of the original films, which I loved. I would be disappointed to see it was the cartoon.
The Real Ghostbusters was the only movie tie in that was worth watching. They took the premise of thr movie and actually managed to make a series of stories that fit within that world rather than shoehorning a celebrity into a cliche situation. It also helped that they had some of the best voice casts ever with Arsenio Hall, Frank Welker, Maurice LeMarch and Lorenzo Music, Dave Coulier and Charlie Adler.
The reason it was called "The Real Ghostbusters" was that a cartoon version of "The Ghost Busters," a kids' show from the 1970s, was airing in the '80s as "Filmation's Ghostbusters," and DIC wanted to distinguish their show from Filmation's.
Today's my birthday, I'm old as dirt and your vids make me feel so much better and spark great conversations with those I share them with. Thank you so much
Happy Birthday. And you spent it with me (my show, at least). Thank you and I do love hearing how people just genuinely enjoy the trip...the memories. They are made to make you happy.
Totally remember it, and I do mentioned it in my earlier shows about Spin-Offs when Live Action TV Shows that were cartoons. These were mostly celebrities and from movies (except Addams Family which came from a cartoon strip). But please go back and see the Part 1 and 2 of those shows for more.
Remember Pro Stars in the early 90s? Animated versions of Michael Jordan, Wayne Gretzky, and Bo Jackson. Ooh, and Hammerman, where MC Hammer was an animated super hero.
The first one I thought of was Taylor Swift. It could be the stories behind the songs with a live performance of the song at the end. Or the further adventures of Beyoncé where she’s a super hero. 🤣
😢😢😢😢7:01, To this Day its the only Episode from The New Scooby-Doo Movies (featuring The Addams Family) not to get a proper release on Home Media other than an Australian VHS Release back in the 1980s or 1990s.
Great stuff, but you forgot the M.C. Hammer cartoon... and the only one of those cartoon Beatles that sounded the closest to his real life self was Paul 😆
And I think that voice did 2, or maybe even 3 of the voices, lol. Yeah, MC Hammer is certainly a special entry...maybe close to the 90s, but still STAR POWERED. Thanks for watching.
I remember Muhammed Ali cartoon, and recognized the reuse of it's opening in the Mr. T cartoon. I remember the cartoons from the Skatebirds, and the robonic 3 Stooges.
They were very similar, true that. Skatebirds also had Mystery or Mysterious Island, or some other show. I had the Skatebird game, which I didn't remember until this show. Thanks for watching.
I mention they continue into the 80s, for sure. There are still those based on celebrities and TV shows (not many), and some do sell toys and some don't. But I had to summarize at the end, lol. But you are correct.
Do you remember the episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies that featured Mama Cass? I remember the episode ended with her dining on grapefruits covered with hot fudge and marshmallow cream! 😆
I think every one of these was before my TV viewing days. I wish these had run reruns like Johnny Quest. I loved that show and delighted when it was parodied by The Venture Brothers and revived for an episode of Harvey Birdman, Atty at Law (both amazing shows that Gen Xers might appreciate just for the nostalgic references.
I enjoyed the J Quest reruns in the 70s for sure, but yeah...Birdman and Venture Brothers homages to them and others were priceless. So glad you watched. Hope you enjoyed.
It's worth noting that Lou Costello had died in the late 1950s; Bud Abbott, who lived on 'til 1974, agreed to voice his own character in the 1960s' cartoon because he was broke and needed the money. Costello's character was voiced by Stan Irwin.
That's a great point. I saw that Lou did not do his voice, but did not venture a guess. Sad to know Bud was broke, but that sounds a lot of those classic comedians who were taken advantage of. Thank you
I was wondering about the Jackson 5 cartoon. I’ve not saw it but the video for I want you back seems to be an edited version of one of the episodes. One of the J5 was drawn with brown hair rather than black, I found that a bit odd.
I think to give some variation to the characters, small color adaptations were made to help separate each brother from the other. Regarding the song, I am sure they had so many versions and renditions they could chose from and one may have fit the cartoon version better. But I am sure I do not know.
I don't know if it was planned or just a coincidence, but the black and white picture you show at 5:56 has I believe Key Luke, who played Charlie's #1 son in the movies AND did the voice of Charlie Chan in The Chan Clan.
That is interesting, I only could find Jackson 5 reran in 1984 and THEN on Disney and MTV for a short about of time. Yes, Ghostbusters, UNLIKE HE MAN, TRANSFORMERS, GI JOE, did run on Saturday at the same time it did on Weekdays. But as you probably are aware, most syndication was made for weekday.
I thought I remembered a cartoon about a Beatles like band that had superpowers. Then, when the Super Globetrotters came around, it seemed like they were the same characters.
The earlier Hanna Barbera cartoon is 'The Impossibles'. They were a Beatles type band who were also superheroes. They had powers that were repeated with some of the characters on Super Globetrotters.
One I remember from the early 80's was Gary Coleman. He was an angel.
The last celebrity animated show would probably be Jackie Chan Adventures.
There were absolutely a handful more, and Gary Coleman was definitely one these, too. Thank you for the reminder. And yes, I totally agree about Jackie Chan being the end.
@@GENXPERIENCE I missed out on a lot of tv. My parents kept it away due to religious reasons. Then we moved to Europe for 3 years.
Gary Coleman's animated series was loosely based on his TV movie "The Kid With the Broken Halo"
Anyone sad The Addams Family and the Munsters never met?
YES. That would be a great catastrophe, lol.
Hey, The Skatebirds, there they are 😆 Would love to find the _Mystery Island_ segments on physical media somewhere (and the Banana Splits _Danger Island_ shorts too), guess i need to get on that 😅
Yeah, I wanted to make sure to call them out. I even remembered having their board game when doing this show. Yeah, wouldn't mind checking out those too.
I'm currently 61 so I definitely have fond memorries of all these cartoons......great vid..
Thank you. Awww, yes, you would be the audience for those first and earliest ones. I love that there was a Laurel and Hardy and an Abbot & Costello. THank you for watching and commenting.
One of those rare channels that I make sure to hit the like before I even watch the video. Keep doin in it to it!
YOu have made my morning. It is a tough business, but viewers like you matter...and I really appreciate your sincerity. I will keep going. Thank you.
4:07, They would get a Spin-Off 2 or 3 Years later called "The Super Globetrotters"
I hope you kept watching the show when I do a whole section on the Super Globetrotters, lol.
@@GENXPERIENCE I haven't own in on DVD yet
So many good n old cartoons
ARen't there? There are so many to categorize and do in my videos, too. Thanks for watching them.
I remember all these cartoons…. Especially The Jackson Five and The Osmonds
It is nice to hear someone remember those...fondly, I hope.
Thank you for replying to my comments
Laurel and Hardy was repeated on BBC throughout the early-mid 80s, remember it very well.
Really? Hard to find here in the USA after 1970, but occasionally, then vanished!
Yes, I remember it, wasn’t too keen on it. I used to get excited if I saw it on the listings or if the announcer said it was on next as I thought it was going to be one of the original films, which I loved. I would be disappointed to see it was the cartoon.

I give TRGH some serious credit for doing something so many shows could not. It was great.

@@GENXPERIENCE thanks! Not just you but door dash said happy birthday so yeah I'm winning!!! Oh jeez ...going go watch Starchaser...
I remember one cartoon that wasnt mentioned was the BRADY KIDS,, a cartoon spin off from the Brady Bunch...
Totally remember it, and I do mentioned it in my earlier shows about Spin-Offs when Live Action TV Shows that were cartoons. These were mostly celebrities and from movies (except Addams Family which came from a cartoon strip). But please go back and see the Part 1 and 2 of those shows for more.

I do remember action figure/dolls of those guys, even MC Hammer...but not a show. Hmmm, wow!
These are so great! I wonder who they would use if they did this kind of thing today.
Sadly, influencers, lol.
The first one I thought of was Taylor Swift. It could be the stories behind the songs with a live performance of the song at the end. Or the further adventures of Beyoncé where she’s a super hero. 🤣

That cartoon had a lot of celebrity guests. I remember Phyllis Diller,Don Knotts, and etc.
Really? Only that episode? What is it with Addams and Australia?
@@GENXPERIENCE Still don't get why it won't have a proper release
@@GENXPERIENCEDavy Jones of The Monkees was in an episode of the New Scooby-Doo Movies. But they misspelled his first name in the Title card.
Some cartoon characters even became celebrities themselves ie The Flintstones, Pink Panther, Garfield etc.
100%....they're the ones that make it. Become ICONIC.
I loved the car from The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan.
It was out of this world.
I have that on the dvd its so cute
Great stuff, but you forgot the M.C. Hammer cartoon... and the only one of those cartoon Beatles that sounded the closest to his real life self was Paul 😆

RIght On! Right On!
@@GENXPERIENCE You are great
Do you remember the episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies that featured Mama Cass? I remember the episode ended with her dining on grapefruits covered with hot fudge and marshmallow cream! 😆
Hell yeah. As a kid I had to ask who she was. But cool she was on it. CRAZY.
I think every one of these was before my TV viewing days. I wish these had run reruns like Johnny Quest.

Then, there was Alvin And The Chipmunks.
You're right, that was some star power.
Happy Friday my friend. Keep doing what you're doin.
Appreciate that. It is a hard bus, that is for sure, lol.
Chin chan on dvd lol love them..

Both Scooby and Jem are AWESOME.

What about the valley of the dinosaurs my favorite..
I might have to add that one to my SATURDAY MORNING SAFARI show...coming soon.
Those cartoons would never be redone. Thank God for UA-cam and streaming because other than that the kids would never have get to see any of these
You got that right. Sad, but true.
I don't know if it was planned or just a coincidence, but the black and white picture you show at 5:56 has I believe Key Luke, who played Charlie's #1 son in the movies AND did the voice of Charlie Chan in The Chan Clan.
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? That is too damn cool. I did not put that together in my research, but love it. Thanks for sharing.
Jackson 5 reran in syndication in the 90s, real ghostbusters was both syndicated and Saturday morning,
That is interesting, I only could find Jackson 5 reran in 1984 and THEN on Disney and MTV for a short about of time. Yes, Ghostbusters, UNLIKE HE MAN, TRANSFORMERS, GI JOE, did run on Saturday at the same time it did on Weekdays. But as you probably are aware, most syndication was made for weekday.
Omg the new kids on the block cartoon is a carbon copy of the Jackson Five..cartoon hi jinx,concert footage
Its like they just reused the format and storylines and called it a day, lol.
@@GENXPERIENCE some of the storylines were unique to each group but the format was definitely the same
From the Beatles to The Jackson to the New Kids on the Block to Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi. Some even had similar stories.
The Beatles. The Jackson Five. The Osmonds.
It would be cool to see u do a deep dive of the unmade Aliens Cartoon that never came out that was based on the 90s toys Kenner did
I do love ALIENS. So many have done it, I really need to work on what would make me original about it....because it would have ROCKED
What do these shows say about us a generation? I see equal representation of all races becoming the norm.
A lot...and I think it was all good. I believe we were trailblazers, don't you.
Good point. People were color blind whereas now it's shoved in your face
Half of these show i know and some i certainly dont lol. I was born until 84
.lol.
Makes sense. You're a young Millennial, not GEN X...we do have some overlap, though.
Charlie Chan had 14 kids in the books.
HOLY MOLY, he was fruitful. That would be tough to animate, lol. Thanks for sharing that.
I pitty the fool.
Iconic. The kind that will go down in history.
I thought I remembered a cartoon about a Beatles like band that had superpowers. Then, when the Super Globetrotters came around, it seemed like they were the same characters.
lol. Hmmm, I wouldn't doubt a Super Beatles show, though.
@GENXPERIENCE They were not the Beatles but a knock-off band.
The earlier Hanna Barbera cartoon is 'The Impossibles'. They were a Beatles type band who were also superheroes. They had powers that were repeated with some of the characters on Super Globetrotters.
@maximusprime3459 Thank You, that was it.
Funny that I remember The Jackson’s cartoon but not The Osmonds?!?
Hmmm, I think the Jackson's were probably more popular. lol
Mr. T cereal was sooooo bland. 🥣
Oh, the cereal, thought you meant the show, lol.
The voice actors on the Mr. T cartoon never saw or even met the man himself.
That's kind of sad. It is show business, but kinda sad.
Maybe there will be a cartoon of Taylor Swift
As I shake my head...I realize it could happen.
Uncanny, I just put that in another reply.
