I've actually been watching re-runs of Voltron for the past two weeks. Its so horrible that I love it.
I honestly think the "writer" of each episode took no more than 8 minutes to "write" it. The animation is TERRIBLE, except for the same forming Voltron sequences that are in every episode. The music is so corny and awesome all at once. I promise you that you cannot watch an episode without making Wedge-style jokes the entire time. Its impossible. And Hilarious.

I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing...

Transformers for the win!! Come on, how can you not love the arc where Optimus Prime's dead body is found and brings a disease that infects all the transformers with it? Awesome stuff.

I watched an episode of She-Ra (featuring He-Man) last night where He-Man threw a cable into outer space, hooked it onto one of Horde Prime's warships and held it in place.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, He-Man PWNS. The End. ;)

How dare you leave Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles off this list! Unless that was the early ninties...
But still!
If I had to choose from the list, GI Joe.

You know it's funny that you can love something as a kid. Then go back and view it as an adult and think to yourself "What was I thinking when I watched this stuff?"
I loved Voltron and Speed Racer when I was little. I remember running home off the school bus so that I wouldn't miss the first five minutes of Voltron.
Now it is like watching a trainwreck....a thirty minute trainwreck.:noidea::leaving:
