The image of a giant spider heading towards the characters trapped in a drainpipe has stayed with me all this time.
Spoiler: They managed to escape in the nick of time.
Of course if you got home REALLY late, even the test pattern would be finished and all you’d get would be a screen of static (known in my circle as the “ant ọrgy”…)
YES!!! Ive even got the BOP tshirt. Star BlZers, fantastic!!!
I loved the sci-fi/Japanese cartoons as a kid. Already mentioned Starblazers, MASK, and Battle of the Planets, but also Transformers and Voltron.
And then there was The A Team, Space: Above and Beyond, Babylon 5, Stargate, the original Battlestar Galactica, V, the list goes on and on.
Anyone remember The Highwayman with Mark Jackson as some futuristic, hi-tech trucker?
Reminds me of Airwolf. Good show.
Loved Knight Rider and also Magnum PI.
Anything with a mad car invoked was a highlight as a kid (still is…)
