He is Batman Classic.<br /><br />@assholeswatchingmovies.com-OK then.... I never thought Captain Planet was attractive, unless he's played by Don Cheadle.<br /><br />@Wendell-Yeah, Captain Planet is lame.... unless he's played by Don Cheadle.<br /><br />@Allie Adkins-I think you can find clips of it on YouTube.

I watched Super Friends all the time and I always liked Aquaman because he was short changed.....he can only do his best when in the water. This just made me think of The Man from Atlantis. I didn't watch the last one which is just as well but I laughed so hard with Don Cheadle making everyone a tree or a bush...tooo funnyBirgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-2870324166222303882017-02-23T18:32:03.046-08:002017-02-23T18:32:03.046-08:00Of these three I've only watched Batman which ...Of these three I've only watched Batman which is a cheesy hoot but some of the guest stars were sensational. I will eternally love Julie Newmar as Catwoman. The other two aren't really up my alley but memory weighs strongly on affection for a show. <br /><br />I had more of a struggle this week than the last several but managed to think of three that I use to get a kick out of.<br /><br />The Tick (1994-1996)-Ridiculously amusing animated series about a somewhat thick superhero clad in a bright blue costume along with his moth costume wearing sidekick Arthur, who has a wry, patient attitude with his often lunk-headed compatriot fights the bad guys in “The City”. They blunder about but still somehow manage to say the day. What else is there to say about a superhero whose call to arms is “SPOON!”<br /><br />The Flash (1990-1991)-When Barry Allen (John Wesley Shipp), a forensic police scientist, suffers a freak accident being struck by lightning and covered in chemicals at the same time a chain reaction occurs giving him super human powers and the ability to move at the speed of sound. While learning how to control his new found powers a calamity occurs which sets him on the path to be the protector of the good people of Central City. Short-lived series had a nice sense of humor mixed in with its action sequences. <br /><br />The Greatest American Hero (1981-1983)-After a chance encounter with aliens in the desert late at night where he is gifted with a magical red suit high school teacher Ralph Hinkley (William Katt) along with fellow witness FBI man Bill Maxwell (Robert Culp) attempt to fight crime using the suit’s powers. A couple of problems present themselves right away, Ralph and Bill are a silk and sandpaper match and even more troubling the pair have lost the instructions for the suit so they have to puzzle out how it works as they go along leading to trouble and a lot of bruises for Ralph. Engagingly played by Katt & Culp along with Connie Sellecca as Ralph’s girlfriend Pam. joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-38489776031142226882017-02-23T16:04:42.846-08:002017-02-23T16:04:42.846-08:00Great choices, especially Batman.Great choices, especially Batman.pilch92https://www.blogger.com/profile/12263559408792146826noreply@blogger.com
