Who wouldn't?

Me?

Well, last night I finished the panel for the 32nd seed, making me officially 25% of the way done on creating info panels for this. In celebration, here's the #1 seed:



And yes, that's the format for all of them: one title screen, six screenshots. This is why it's not going fast.

Rabbit Season indeed.

Duck Season!

Meep meep!

Ohhh no ya don't.....not this time...

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, Genius. I am not selling anything, nor am I working my way through college. And so, lets get down to cases. You are a rabbit, and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away. I am much faster, smarter, muscular and wiser than you are, and I'm a genius; while you could hardly pass the entrance examination to kindergarten. I will now give you the customary 3 minutes to say your prayers.

Wow that looks pretty good CO!

Meep Meep!

That looks damn good, CO! This battle is definitely going to be worth the wait. And I don't know if I'd have the patience or the resources to find 6 screen shots for each cartoon. Props to ya CO.

Is there any way the rest of us can help pillage screenshots to ease the workload?

Thats awesome CO. I am looking forward to the total finished product.

I appreciate the offer, but most of the time I think it'd just work out that I'd wind up spending time waiting for the pics to be sent. But if I find that something is particularly difficult to find, and I think you might be able to help, I'll be sure to let you know.

Okie dokie!

i'm always too slow to submit my nominations to these thigns.... so long as Batman: The Animated Series makes the list...

Oh yeah. It's in all right. With this crowd you shouldn't even have to ask. And without knowing all of the other cartoons in the list yet, I'm still willing to bet it makes it to the final 4.

well, it is one of the finest animated programs evar.

all I have to say is "Go Osmonds!"

(Just cause I haven't seen anyone use this smilie yet and it really should be the mascot for this place.)

Weekends provide more time to fiddle, and I hit a nice patch of cartoons that were easy to find info on, so I'm halfway through the list now!

Here, in celebration, is the 33rd seed:

Is it wrong that when I see those stills I can hear the theme music?

Very wrong.

Sweet Voltron. Again another one that I thought of but figured someone else would nominate.

Did it really only run for two years? With all the reruns I thought there was a lot more of it than that. Oh and I must've totally missed the part where the alien princess became a Voltron pilot. That sounds cool.

P.S. There's a typo in the write up CO;
Just trying to help ya out.

Thanks for the preview. Can't wait for more.

Does the 2 years include the robot car Voltron thing? I think it does, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't.

She replaced Sven, the blue pilot (though she wore pink) and if I remember correctly it was pretty early on.

1st or 2nd episode early on. And she rode the blue lion, but didn't replace the blue pilot. The guy in red replaced the guy in black. Then blue went to the red lion, and pink went in blue.

Or at least, I think that was how it worked.

I'm pretty sure she replaced Sven cause he was trapped on planet Doom or some such.

Wha? You lost me.

The guy in the black lion had something bad happen to him. The guy in red took his position. Then the guy in blue took over the red lion, and the had Princess Pinky pilot the blue one.

Though Dragoon may have the better memory. I haven't watched it since Gr. 10. The guys in Yellow and Green definately were in the yellow and green lions though.

For once Dragoon has it right. Sven (who wore black) was the original Blue lion pilot. Keith (who wore red) always was the team leader, and piloted Black lion. Lance (who wore Blue) was always the hotshot who thought he was good enough to be leader, and piloted Red lion. Pidge (the boy genious who wore and piloted green) and Hunk (who was the team mechanic and wore more of an orange than yellow suit, but piloted Yellow) rounded out the team. Sven stayed behind on Planet Doom to help some people trapped there, and Princess Aurora took over for him in Blue (and wore pink). Sven did later reapper in an episode, when the Princess was stuck on Doom, and he helped her get off planet but stayed behind again.

If that isn't 100% correct, it's because I did it from memory (hmmm...I wonder what one of my Noms was?).

My memory is the same as your memory. I'll second your assesment.

On occasion the "years" can be a little deceiving when it comes to determining amount. A Saturday morning cartoon airs only once a week, so a "season" of that can be as few as 13 episodes or as many as 26 (generally going into re-runs after that point, though some have gone on longer.) A daily cartoon, however, airs five days a week, so a season of it can be as many as 90 episodes. (And no, I haven't worked out whether that's the same number of weeks; that's just what I've seen to be the norm.) Voltron first aired daily before it went into syndication.

And the years here refer to the original (US) air dates, not syndication. So its original run was about two years, but I think it's only seldom been out of syndication somewhere.


*Chaomancer Omega grumbles a bit
Thanks, Twinky. I won't bother to re-upload it right now, but I'll fix it so that when I upload the whole batch, it'll be correct.

It does not. This is strictly lion Voltron.

6th, according to what I read.

Wow.

Yeah....somebody liked Voltron...

Sure did. Raced home ervey day to see it, because it was on at 3pm, followed by G.I. Joe, then Thundercats and Transformers.


God, why do I remember the afternoon cartoon lineup from when I was 7? And why do I not own all of those on DVD? Wait, because they ain't all out on DVD...yet.

The only one that isn't is Voltron.

All right, 3/4ths of the way through the panels! Though now, of course, I'm getting into the area where there are some weird entries.

Anyway, here's the 65th seed:

Wow, I totally missed that whole cartoon. Damn shame as it looks half decent too.

I watched that show a lot but I don't see it winning.

I think you can thank me for some of those. I knew the very best and most popular cartoons would be nominated so I wanted to get some of the more obsure stuff in. Iron Man was one of mine and from those screen shots, I'm not sorry about it at all. I wanna see that more of that show. Too bad it's not likely to be released on DVD anytime soon.

And I have finally finished created panels for the cartoons! 128 entries, all screenshotted and written up!

Now I just need to start working on the bracket graphics. Which is apt to take a while in and of itself because I have a cool idea, but one that will not necessarily be easy.

Anyway, here's the 97th seed!

I used to have some View-Finder reels with images from the Star Trek cartoon!

I remember view finders! I had some He-Man ones, and I think some Star Wars ones. I hear they still have those things.

I haven't seen the Star Trek toon since I was about 6 or 7. I remember enjoying it (I was already a fan of the original series). The series has neer been released on DVD and the VHS is out of print, so color me impressed that you were able to find such good screenshots, CO.

The Star Trek cartoon??!? Oh, Man! I wish I'd thought of that! Sweet!

Heh, I completely missed that one.

I lucked out; Wikipedia had a bunch of them. I guess some Star Trek fan out there must have done a good job of preserving VHS copies.
