    The best 80s cartoon no one talks about is Bionic Six. Great character designs, beautiful animation (courtesy of the Japanese studio TMS) and some great writing.
    The weirdest 80s cartoon no one talks about may be Spiral Zone, a weird sort of "GI Joe in a Zombie Apocalypse" series that was straight-up nightmare fuel.

    Happy Friday lovely friend! I am an 80s dude and I remember some of these cartoons a bit briefly. I admire the work that you do when it comes to describing each of these cartoons in detail. Your knowledge of them is impeccable. Nowadays, I wish they had a channel that would show retro cartoons from the 70s, 80s and 90s. That would be great. I can't find a decent cartoon to save my soul. Any ways, this was a great video as always. I have always enjoyed your content. You have my utmost respect and admiration my friend. Enjoy your weekend and be well. Please give my best to Dante and Muffin. Hugs to you all.😊😎

    I know there was one that aired on ABC about a radio station and it involved a parrot and I think a very young Sean Ono Lennon was involved in the live action segments...what was it?!

I wasn't a fan of the 90s reality programs either. Reality TV is pointless, brainless, shit TV, with no redeeming quality. I stand by this comment.
