Anybody else remember this cartoon?


I remember watching this cartoon when I was extremely young. This and the cartoon called Pro Stars which had Michael Jordan, Wayne Gretsky, and Bo Jackson where favorites of mine in my early childhood. Although I cant recall much about either series I do think it would be interesting to either catch a rerun of these series on tv or even see a dvd released.

Yeah it sucked. I watched it in the mid 90s.

I remember my fair share of this series, especially the music, as they used Queen's Another One Bites the Dust to introduced a certain character every time. Also,the theme tune was a manipulated version of Bonnie Tyler's Ravishing (I just listened to the original recently and the memory of that theme tune came flooding back to me!)
I am actually glad that I don't remember a lot from it, but that's because I remember other shows, that Jeffrey Scott wrote, more from this era, like the Muppet Babies.

The name of the episode where Hulk and the gang turn into kids was Small But Mighty. One of my favorites.

I remember it. Hulk had the converible, Wendy was hot and Junkyard had a dog, lived in a junkyard and had a truck with a house camper.

This show was kind of silly in retrospect (they sell VHS episodes at MacFrugals and H.E.B. stores) but it was during a part of my life when I was a kid (12) and would give anything to relive those days. I do remember Mene Gene getting all these gorgeous girls while the big bad wrestlers looked on in quiet jealousy.

I only remember the ghostbuster episode.

Yeah I really remember it. I came on right after Pee Wee's Playhouse for CBS' Saturday Morning Schedule during the 80's. And was make this so replusive that the network ran this crap for a hour!!!

1. The only live-action version was with the REAL Hulk Hogan and WWF announcer Gene Okerlund.

2. Wendy was every girls hot lesbian dream!!! Juicy dyke fantasy!!!

3. Can you believe that Brad Garrett(the wimpy punk-out giant from Everybody Loves Raymond)did voicework for the animated version of Hulk Hogan????

4. Can you believe that James Avery(who was Uncle Phil from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air)was the voice of the Junkyard Dog??? In the animated version the Junkyard had a dog and had a truck with a house camper???? Can you believe that the Junkyard Dog's brother was voiced by the guy who was on Boston Public?

5. Standup comic Charlie Adler was the voice of not only Roddy Piper but also the voice of the Nature Boy Rick Flair???

6. Lewis Arquette(the brother of actresses Patricia and Rosanna Arquette)was the voice of Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka and Jimmy Streamboat????

Its no wonder this series lasted one season.

I watched it in the mid 80's I was about six years old when it was on. I liked it, and thought it was cool but then again I was six years old and I thought everything was cool back then. I totally forgot about it till I stumbled across it on youtube just now and got a total nostalgic flashback

I don't recall this cartoon, but from what I heard is uh.. Wendi looks like Debbie from Speed Buggy.
