![]() Every single episode makes me laugh no matter how many times I've seen it before. Every cartoon should be this good. Futurama has some of the best writing and voice actors of any cartoon ever! The show's so good I can't even pick a favorite character. Zoidberg rules, but so do Farnsworth, Bender, Fry, and just about everyone on the show! Billy West [Fry] does an especially excellent job, and I just recently realized he also did the voice for Geeker on Project Geeker! I love how Zoidberg's always disgusting and how Bender's such a degenerate! And for a short run, Futurama has had so many absolutely classic episodes. When Fry drank that king, or the X-Mas special with the giant killer robot Santa, or the one with the giant garbage ball heading for earth, and so many more! I really can't think of a show that's made me ![]() laugh so often, and there are a lot of great classic comedies out there. I really hated to see the show killed in its prime, but there are cool things underway. Some DVD Futurama movies are in the works and maybe if they do well, we'll have our show back. I'm just glad we live in the age of DVD, so everyone can enjoy Futurama anytime they want. There's no reason I can't sit down someday and watch all 20 seasons of Futurama, I'm so happy to see some hope for the show! The Futurama logo links to a fantastic fan site that's overloaded with great stuff like sounds, icons, wallpapers and more! Here are some other cool Futurama links:Futurama at the IMDB. Cast list, great pictures, trivia, quotes and a lot more! Futurama episode guide The Futurama Point great fan site with everything! Futurama episode transcripts Download a Futurama desktop theme! Download a Futurama screensaver! Watch Project Geeker episodes! He's like Fry, but 10 times wackier with amazing powers. [Any Futurama fan should like the show] Huge News!!! Futurama is coming back!!

Wink, wink." Dr. Zoidberg - "Bender, you said 'wink, wink' out loud." Bender - "No I didn't. Raise middle finger." Bender - "This is the worst kind of discrimination. The kind against me." Dr. Zoidberg - "I'm not saying Professor Farnsworth is old, but if you consider his age, he's likely to die soon." |

![]() Man's civilization is cast in ruin. 2000 years later, earth is reborn. A strange new world rises from the old. A world of savagery, super-science and sorcery. But one man bursts his bonds to fight for justice. With his companions Ookla the Mok and Princess Ariel. He pits his strength, his courage and his fabulous Sun Sword against the forces of evil. He's Thundarr the Barbarian!" How could you not love that?? The setting is one of the best post apocalyptic worlds you'll find anywhere. There are lots of monsters and strange creatures, mixed with left over high technology and ruins of civilization, including famous landmarks. There are obviously things borrowed from Star Wars like Sun Sword/Lightsaber and Mok/Wookie among others but it's still a cool take on things. Being a Barbarian, Thundarr's no genius, but Princess Ariel is smart enough for the both of them. Plus her magic consistantly gets them out of trouble. ![]() There were only 21 episodes made from 1980 to 1982. Watching the Thundarr The Barbarian again recently, I can still see the show's coolness and I think the whole Thundarr concept would make a great movie if done right. The production design was done by the famous Jack Kirby, but thankfully he doesn't do any of the actual art [love his design, hate his art]. But the cartoon is just like a comic book come to life. I especially like one of Thundarr's main villains, Gemini. The dude's very original and cool. Thundarr's a great cartoon and if you get the chance to watch any episodes don't miss it! And for another cool barbarian, read the very cool comic book X-O Manowar. The Thundarr the Barbarian logo links to a really cool Thundarr fan site with lots of content.

![]() more than most others from my childhood. Around the time I was in grade 3 or 4, The Mighty Hercules was on when I came home for lunch. It's definitely my favorite version of Hercules, and highly superior to that disney version the kids love today. In the cartoon, Hercules is given a ring by Zeus. The ring allows Hercules to keep his powers while on earth. So Hercules, and his faithful sidekick Newton the Centaur protect the kingdom of Calydon from it's many menaces. Herc's main nemesis is the evil wizard Daedalus and his many insidious schemes, but he also battles other threats like Willamene the Sea Witch and the Mask of Vulcan among others. The cartoon was syndicated in 1963, and there were 109 short [5+ minute] episodes. During the course of the show Hercules fights the Hydra, Medusa, the Minotaur, and a double created by Daedalus among many others.![]() The voice actors do a great job too, including Jimmy Tapp [Hercules/Zeus], Helene Nickerson [Helena] and Gerry Bascombe [Newton/Daedalus]. It's amazing how such cool stories can be told in such a short cartoon. There's a lot of re-using scenes throughout the show, but that was the standard for most cartoons of the time and it doesn't hurt the show at all. And I suspect that Newton always repeating what he was saying may have been to stretch the running time. Unfortunately the show isn't out on VHS or DVD [yet!], but I can hope can't I? The Mighty Hercules logo links to the ToonTracker page for the show! It has an episode list, pictures, info about the show and its cast, and even an episode you can watch! Here are some other cool links:The Mighty Hercules at the IMDB. Sounds, links, info and more! Listen to the great theme song for The Mighty Hercules!! Watch some short Mighty Hercules video clips [wrong theme song though] The Mighty Hercules sticker book The Mighty Hercules picture gallery Music from the show was from "The Black Shield of Falworth" it's on this CD! |

"In the peaceful Kingdom Of Calydon, an evil flying figure hovers over the castle of King Dorian." Calydon Guard - "Shades of Scorpius!" |
