I got on this weird kick of looking up and watching old cartoons from the late seventies and early eighties that I remembered. most of these didn't last too long.
Hanna Barbera's short lived Space Stars revived Space Ghost and the Herculoids in an anthology format with two new features: Teen Force and Astro & the Space Mutts. the Jetson's dog was now having adventures with other talking dogs and the Burt Reynolds like Space Ace. the last episode of each show, the Space Stars Finale, featured crossovers between various characters.
The Super 7. all I really remember about this is Super Stretch. later, Tarzan was added to this anthology show. he was bumped out of the top spot the next season by Batman, of all people.
The Thing cartoon from Fred and Barney Meet the Thing. sort of a spinoff from The New Fantastic Four cartoon (the one with Herbie). an experiment to cure the Thing reverts him to a teenager and he can now turn into the Thing with his Thing Rings. seriously. . .

I never realized it was the same Thing. As a kid I thought it was Shaggy or something.
I think Grimm and I have talked several times about some of these shows. I remember watching the Lone Ranger one right before wrestling on Saturdays. The Spider-man and His Amazing Friends was the first time we got an Aussie Wolverine. Rickey Rocket is just fucking racist.

This thread reminded me of another show I watched as a kid. Magicland was done my the weatherman for WMCTV out of Memphis. They'd play old cartoons like the old Jackson 5 or George of the Jungle in between him performing magic tricks.
And, yes, I realize that clip seems a bit pedophillic.

somebody on youtube claims that Rickety Rocket was actually dropped due to complaints from the NAACP. don't know if that's true, but it's possible.
wonder if I can find a clip of wolverine offering firestar a fruit kabob. . .
