Has anyone ever noticed how bad Captain Planet's dialog used to be? I obviously never did see this growing up and well...I am sort of glad that I did not. :p

Oh God, I remember watching Captain Planet! Even as a kid , I was always rooting for either the bad guys to win, or for Captain Planet to die . I can appreciate what the show is trying to do, and you gotta admit, its subject matter is usually pretty blunt for a kids show. But the execution of it is just so frickin terrible! Its nearly unwatchable, even if you're a kid! The editing alone made me feel like I needed a dramamine, and those horrible accents need to die in a fire. I never realized how bad they were.

This is actually one of the few episodes that I clearly remember. The other was some sort of arc that pitched the planeteers against Captain Pollution and his pollutioneers or whatever. And that's only because I clearly remember rooting for Captain Pollution! I think there was also one episode that was about the conflict in the Middle East with Israel. What's really weird though is I think that video brought back some repressed memories of me once having a crush on Wheeler

I'm actually always pretty pleasantly surprised by how good the writing in the shows I actually watched as a kid was.

I also can't believe my parents let me watch Rocky and Bulwinkle. More than half the humor is definitely not for kids, there.

You do know that show was centered towards adults right? It was just your everyday complete mockery of communism by the greatest American natural wildlife, the moose and squirrel.

I used to watch Rocky and Bulwinkle every morning before school. :3
But I never had the pleasure of Captain Planet.
