    I’m 50 and I have no idea who captain planet is. When and where was that a thing? Did you need to have cable? Because like 5% of my friends had cable. I’ve still never paid for it.

      Captain Planet? He’s a hero, he’s going to take pollution down to zero. https://youtu.be/OiYjTb3opAA?si=-wXp-JTkWkhAGELC

        I watched a little bit of that and I’ve definitely never seen it before. I’ll ask again, where and when was that a thing?

            I was a teenager in the 90s and lived on all of the cartoons. I’ve got nothing. Maybe only on cable or something?

              Hmm well TBS created it, but it used to come on sat mornings on regular broadcast (NBC) where I was.

              It was voiced by tons of well known names, ran for 6 seasons, had a horrible live action movie made with Don Cheadle. Idk I personally didn’t watch it, but it came on after something I did watch. The only thing I can really remember about it, is it’s theme song…

              “Teenager”? If you’re 50, you’re 15 years too old for Captain Planet, fam.

          I watched the cartoon in the UK as a child, I don’t remember how old I was.
