He-Man and The Masters Of The Universe, Transformers, Voltron, M.A.S.K., The Centurions, COPS, G.I. Joe, Thunder Cats, Captain Power and The Soldiers of The Future (Not to be confused with Captain Planet). These were shows I enjoyed in my pajamas and a bowl of frosted flakes. This week, Entertainment Weekly's PopWatch blog has been asking which characters did you like the most on the various shows. I have a feeling that this will end with a "Who is the greatest 80's cartoon character" question, but with so many cartoons being team oriented, it's only fair to pick the best team.
So here it is. Which 80's cartoon team can rule over all the rest and why?
My vote is G.I. Joe. Mainly because of man power. The 'Joe had the largest squad with varying abilities of all the members and even though the stories centered around the main characters, there were always extra soldiers around. G.I. Joe could overrun He-Man and his team. They have just as many machines as Transformers. If one lion goes down, Voltron can't form. M.A.S.K. would be the only other one who would pose a threat. There are only 3 centurions. If G.I. Joe took out Panthro and Cheetara, Lion-O wouldn't be much good. Captain Power could be a dark horse in that cartoon battle, though. Agree? Disagree?

Well, I can't speak for the 80's, however, the 70's ROCKED on Saturday mornings with The Jetson's, Scooby Doo, Sigmund & THe Sea MOnsters, Land of the Lost, marked only by Tom & Jerry, Bugs Bunny ... not that line up equals a whole box of Quisp Cereal
